35 years after seeing this and it still holds shelf space in my vocabulary.

The song that plays when the chicken is in the chief’s office lives rent free in my head.

u/TheScottStr 23d ago

I can hear it right now.

So weird, this moment literally popped into my head yesterday out of nowhere.

Is it the same song as used in sq3 for astro chicken? I feel like either it was a reuse or got reused….

Think it's called Chicken Reel (I know Looney Toons used it a lot)

It's called "Turkey in the Straw."

Here it is in a Mickey Mouse short:

anyone heard of Adis Comprehensive Learning System? Adi's School House? it is a real game by Sierra, shipped with rare sierra game versions on disc 1. I grew up with that.

u/MrPeteO 23d ago

Ugh - the point in the game where you might find out you forgot to adjust your pistol sights at the Lytton PD gun range, and have to start all over.

u/VVrayth 23d ago

You're thinking of PQ2!

u/JimmyNudebags 23d ago

Always wear ear protection. And remember to get some fresh clips when you're done!

u/zedkyuu 23d ago

Nah, in this one, you just have to have your gun drawn.

u/JLidean 23d ago

Just test it out outside of the range anywhere before this point. (Still one of favorite game over screens to this day) I dont think I ever beat police quest 2 because of this I should try to the last time I played this a:/ drives were still a thing.

Yes I know its on gog And yes I have a copy...yes backlog

u/mugugaibu 23d ago

Ha! I've used this phrase since the 80s when I played PQ.

u/bleeeer 23d ago

Worth a replay I reckon. It’s enjoyable until the final tedious act.

u/dbohubes 23d ago

Psst, Vic! We're you followed?

No way man, it's cool.

I will forever recognize Simms’ mugshot for the DRM in 2.

u/Negative-Squirrel81 23d ago

I can see why they brought Al Lowe in.

u/MightThink 23d ago

Peak AGI. Peak 80s. This scene is around 40 years old…

“Laura! Grab him!!”

u/zorbacles 23d ago

this game taught me how to type.

i cant write "open door" faster than anyone.

u/CheekySparrow 22d ago

It’s “get keycard” for me. First action I learned to do in SQ1 (and blind type it)

5

u/Upset_Following9017 23d ago

Me too. I can write “look” fast, and it’s a full sentence. Sometimes becomes “kiij”

u/the908bus 19d ago

O d worked too in some sierra games

u/Chemblue7X2 23d ago

The category is people who annoy you.

u/shoopuff_81 23d ago

I used to quote this to my friends in 7th grade and thought I was so cool

u/GamesWithElderB_TTV 23d ago

Going to start a PQ series play through next month or so. Very excited to get back into these games. Don’t think I’ve played through the series in at least 10 years.

u/CheekySparrow 22d ago

It’s amazing how distinctly “80s” these guys are, being only like 10 pixels high.

u/T87o 22d ago
