I wish dehydrated water was a real thing so I could test if Orat tactics might work on hostage-holding bears.

This is a DOSBox-Staging recording of the Introduction to Space Quest 1

"Space Quest: The Sarien Encounter," initially released in 1986, is a classic space-themed adventure game developed and published by Sierra On-Line. Created by the duo Scott Murphy and Mark Crowe, the game follows the exploits of Roger Wilco, a janitor aboard the spaceship Arcada, who unwittingly becomes humanity's last hope against the evil Sariens. Notable for its humor, pixel art graphics, and text-parser interface, Space Quest set a playful tone with its witty dialogue and satirical take on science fiction conventions. As players guide Roger through various space-themed environments, solving puzzles and avoiding comedic perils, the game became a landmark title in the point-and-click adventure genre. Its success laid the foundation for a beloved series known for its humor, memorable characters, and the enduring appeal of the endearingly inept protagonist, Roger Wilco.
