Space Quest IV

Roger Wilco and the Time Rippers is a graphic adventure game by Sierra. Made for the commodore amiga in 1991.

An Exclusive Interview with Roger Wilco: Space Hero!

In recent years, the name Roger Wilco has become synonymous with honor, bravery, heroism, and dumb luck. Here to tell us about himself, his past adventures, and his upcoming endeavors is that swashbuckling space _ cadet himself, Roger Wilco.

Roger, it’s common knowledge that before you began an_ exciting career saving galaxies and rescuing software designers, you were a janitor on a Xenon space lab, but little is known about your early life. Tell ‘us about life back on your home planet of Xenon.

Xenon’s a great place. In fact, I can’t wait to get home — I haven’t been back there since the end of Space Quest I. I grew up there, descended from a long line of ... uh ... Maintenance Specialists.
Anyway, after grammar school my parents enrolled me in the High School of the Custodial Arts, where I took a lot of general ed stuff — you know, Basic Disinfecting 101, Broom Wrangling ... I
wasn’t exactly at the head of my class, but I did score a perfect two on our last History of Mop Management pop quiz.

When I was old enough, I went on to Janitorial Graduate School, where I majored in Industrial Waste. After graduation, I reeled in this heavily-sought-after position with NucleoTherm MHazardous Substance Containment Services, and was assigned to contract duty aboard the spacelab Arcada. I couldn’t believe my _ luck, getting this gig — all those veterans at NucleoTherm, and they chose me.

In what has become known across the galaxy as The Sarien Encounter, you single-handedly saved Xenon and the entire Earnon star system from the evil Sariens.

How'd you do it?

Well, it wasn’t easy, Flip. The stuff I went through, well, other guys would have snapped. If not for my keen wit, those slimy Sariens would have wiped us out. Why, I braved so many dangers...

So tell us about it already.

Oh, yeah, sorry. Well, the Sariens were after the Star Generator, a gizmo Xenon’s scientists were working on. They attacked the Arcada, the spacelab where I was stationed, and slaughtered the
whole crew — everybody but me, that is. I cleverly evaded them...

You were napping in the broom closet, right?

Er ... I was resting up for the big battle. Anyway, they took the Star Generator and I went after ‘em. I infiltrated the Sarien battle cruiser Deltaur, set the Star Generator to self destruct, and got out of
there just in time for a front row seat to see the Deltaur and all those filthy Sariens get blown to bits.

But that wasn't really the end of the Sariens, was it?

Well, no, now that you mention it. Their boss, a big slug named Vohaul, was pretty tweaked at me for foiling his operation, so he sent a couple of thugs after me to make sure I wouldn’t get in his way when he unleashed an army of genetically engineered Life Insurance Salesmen on the galaxy.

performance in a tight situation, I’m your man, Flip. Talk about staying cool... (Sigh) So what happened, Roger?

Well, it was like this: Vohaul’s goons kidnapped me and hijacked a shuttle to the planet Labion. Through sheer genius I was able to escape... Gads!

Yeah, I hear ya.

But you were able to stop him?

Yep. Once again I went up against impossible odds and emerged a hero. It was an amazing display of courage and determination, if I do say so myself. When you’re’ looking for top performance in a tight situation, I’m your man, Flip. Talk about staying cool... (Sigh) So what happened, Roger?

Well, it was like this: Vohaul’s goons kidnapped me and hijacked a shuttle to the planet Labion. Through sheer genius I was able to escape...

The way I heard it, the hovercraft crashed, killing your captors. That made it pretty easy to get away, didn't it?

Uh, well ... not as easy as you might think. See, there was still a deadly root monster, a ferocious swamp creature, and a Labion Terror Beast to contend with. Then I had to outsmart another of
Vohaul’s gorillas and steal the shuttle so I could penetrate the asteroid fortress and pull the plug on that corpulent creep once and for all.

Well, it sounds like you earned your pay that time, Roger.

All in a day’s work for a guy like me, Flip. Anyway, I aborted the launch and jetted out of there in an escape pod. I crawled into the sleep chamber and the next thing I knew, I woke up in a trash freighter.

So, basically, it was out of the frying pan and into the fire for you, right Rog?

Yeah, things didn’t look too good, but I blasted out of the freighter in an old jalopy I resurrected from the rubble. What I didn’t know was, I was being tailed by Arnoid the Annihilator, that one man collection agency from hell. He nearly had me at a tourist trap on Phlieebut, but at the last minute I wiped him out. After that grueling experience, I thought I’d take it easy for a while.

That's when you got the distress call from the Two Guys from Andromeda, right? Yeah, ever seen those guys? Jeez, what a couple of geeks. Anyway, before I knew it I was face to face with the most ruthless band of outlaws in the galaxy, the Pirates of Pestulon. I was lucky to get out of there with my skin, not to mention those two ingrates I dropped off on Earth. Why I risked my neck for those bozos, Ill never know.

Rumor has it, the Two Guys actually authored your adventures, Roger, making them effectively, your creators. What is your reaction to that?

Those rumors are greatly exaggerated, Flip. It’s that kind of tabloid trash that gives journalism a bad name, and frankly I’m shocked that you’d print such a thing. You wouldn’t, would you?

Of course not, Roger. I'll edit that part out (heh heh). So tell me, what are your plans for the future?

Well, Flip, I think I’m overdue for a vacation. I’m not even gonna think about anything brave or heroic for at least six months — I?ll be kicking back on some sandy beach soaking up x-rays. Heck,
maybe I’ll even check out Robertaland. Editor's Note: Roger Wilco’s amazing adventures are chronicled in the Space Quest series; Space Quest I: The Sarien Encounter, Space Quest II: Vohaul’s
Revenge, and Space Quest III: The Pirates of Pestulon.

Gobliiins

This adventure game. Was released for the amiga in 1992 by Bomico in europe and by Sierra in USA. Gobliiins is the first in a serie of 3 games.

THE STORY LINE
Three mischievous goblins have to set out on a journey to search for a remedy for their
King ANGOULAFRE‘s illness: he's gone raving mad! The only person who may be able
to help him is the clever but cantankerous wizard NIAK, and it's your job to guide them
on their journey to find him.

OUPS, IGNATIUS and ASGARD, three inseparable, daring and humorous goblins
prepare to set off in search of the miracle cure.

Unfortunately the goblins have never left the comforting security of their kingdom before
and have heard all manner of terrifying tales about the characters and animals that live
beyond the boundaries of their land.

Here are some of the things rumoured about the OUTSIDE:

NIAK the wizard doesn’t like noise and won't open his door to just anyone...at least not
unless they pay! Luckily he lives close to a diamond mine. In his absence his bad
tempered guard-dog RAGNAROK guards the door. Oddly enough, this strange dog is
fond of little birds.

NIAK grows carnivorous plants in his thatched cottage and here he hides his magic
potions and objects. It is said that his house has an underground passage where foul
spiders and vile zombies guard his much sought after alchemic treasures.

Stories of SHADWIN'S reputation have also reached our ears. This extremely influential
old rat has access to other worlds through doors in his lair. He is strongly inclined to help
those who work in the name. and cause, of Good and his words of advice are precious.
He lives under a field of carrots which provides his only food-source. However he sleeps
a great deal and being as he is as deaf as a post it’s extremely difficult to rouse him when
he is deep in his own mysterious thoughts.

It appears that in a tar-flung country there exists a huge floating statue symbolising
Serenity, which destroys all Evil and regenerates Strength. GEMELLOR the two-
headed, fire-breathing dragon lives nearby. It's difficult to get close to him but his magic
flames have the power to consume even the strongest curses and magic spells.

Even further away in his run-down castle lives MELIAGANTE, a very, very sad giant. His
only pastime is reading the books that his librarian writes for him. However since he was
bitten by a werewolf, BARBONEK only writes very desolate stories in which he laments
the loss of his human condition. Consequently MELIAGANTE has fallen into the deepest
depression. It is said, however, that in the ruins of the castle is hidden the Secret Weapon
which could destroy all evil powers...


STORY OF THE GAME
The Goblins have to cross these strange countries strewn with
plots that they have to overcome by helping each other and by
each one of them using his particular, special talents.

ASGARD is a warrior who only uses his Fists - he hits everything
in sight and is strong enough to pull himself up ropes and still
continue to fight.

IGNATIUS is a magician who can cast spells at a distance.
Unfortunately, he's not always able to completely control
their effects.

OUPS is the technician of the group. who deliberately collects
and uses the various objects he comes across on the journey. His weak constitution
allows him to carry only one object at a time.

Each scene is an original mystery punctuated with riddles which you have to solve whilst
conserving as much of your energy as possible.

There is an energy quota for the group which is reduced with each incorrect action you
take. Amongst the things that take up your energy are:

* falls
* Blows received
* Shocks
* loss of usefull objects
* incorrect usage of objects

BEWARE: Certain particularly inept actions make you use up a lot of energy and will send
you back to the beginning of the scene. Total loss of your energy quota will bring an end
to the game (GAME OVER). You can either quit or recall the scene with the help of its
code, revealed as you complete each scene.

A WORD OF ADVICE
Your aim is to find the wizard and get your hands on the remedy that will cure the king.
But this task won't be easy, you will be hindered by numerous obstacles or ill-intentioned
characters.
This begins with the wizard himself who won’t allow you to get too close too easily. A hint
to put you on the right track - in the first screen try to get your hands on a pick-axe in order
to extract a diamond from the mine. With this in your possession the wizard will have to
let you in....

In addition:

* give a lot of thought to the use of each object.
* use the magician to transform them
* don't forget that the warrior climbs and hits.
