The other day I came across this game where you are a snake and if you eat bananas you grow and if you eat a chili pepper you breathe fire and then go flying backward. Also you can eat a ghost and walk through walls which makes sense. Not to brag or anything - but I beat the whole game!
Then I played a game where you can switch between yourself and your upside-down mirror version - it was quite a mind-bender! And guess what - I beat it too!
Hoo hoo. I got to play the Black Cauldron game with Lee and she was able to figure out how to walk through the rocks when we were stuck and get into the castle and free Hen Wen the pig and also hop onto the slippery rocks to visit the Fairy King and in the end Gurgi sacrificed himself in the Black Cauldron to save everyone but then he came back to life and everyone was happy and we only missed 5 points for not finding a food wallet under a bridge hoo hoo!
We got really stuck the first day and then Lee and I tried a million things and eventually figured out how to get through the maze of rocks to climb the mountain to the Horned King's castle.
We also got pretty stuck in the castle until Lee figured out to leap from the balcony. We struggled to snag Hen-Wen until Dave saw that they all got distracted when she was doing her vision and that was our moment.
It was so fun to play a Sierra Online game again! Even if we played the lute way way way too much, hoo hoo.
