Recap: So, this is going to be a relatively small update. I didn’t want my first post to be incredibly long, so I had to split up Curtis’ exploration of the town into 2 pieces. There’s not much going on at the moment, as everything mostly consists of just talking to people. Curtis has already explored half the town and is going to check out the rest of Spielburg. Will the rest of the town’s inhabitants be as elderly, rude or unhygenic as the ones Curtis has already encountered? Let’s find out!

Part 1: Introduction, Back To The Front, You Will Do What I Say, When I Say

Okay, call me a purist. Or a dork, I don’t really care which epithet you wish to throw my way. I refuse to acknowledge the Sierra Hero’s Quest games by their ‘Quest for Glory’ moniker simply because, hey, I grew up playing Hero’s Quest, dammit, not Quest for Glory.

Welcome to the first instalment of the LP for arguably the best Sierra adventure game produced: Hero’s Quest 1: So You Want To Be A Hero? I know that there are several LPs already done of the Quest for Glory series, so this isn’t necessarily being done to shed a ton of light onto a game that folks don’t know a whole lot about. HQ1 is a game that I’m really comfortable with, having played it to death growing up, so I think it’d be a good game to pop my LP cherry on, and it will allow me to spend time trying to make this LP entertaining, rather than going over everything in the game in detail.
