This may have been mentioned before, but one thing I really liked about this remake is the attention to details, in almost every sense of that word. For example, I really appreciated the fact that Alexander can't swim, since logically he's had no chance to learn, being locked up in Manannan's house ...

Wow, the Roger Wilco. Do you mean the broom from the ship galley? I also had it in my possession, but didn't get this award.

You need another item. Think Space Quest 6.

Is it a certain item you get at the beginning and use at the end of that game?

I fell off the steps alot and i didn't get Klutz, but theres other places i know to fall so i'm gonna try that my next run thru, just everytime i pass by i'm gonna fall. The klutz might also be running into the anchor outside the general store, so that Alexander yells, "Ouch!" I did that ...

Being a "fly-on-the-wall" doesn't involve standing. Or walking. Or touching the ground, for that matter.

Speaking of pronunciation, did anybody else horribly mangle the pronunciation of "Manannan" when playing the original? I don't think I had any idea of how to say it until we got a pronunciation guide in a KQ Hint Book we bought at some point after KQIV (pronouncing it Man-an-an with an acc...

There wasn't an exact where given, but there was dialogue in the game suggesting why Mannanan kept going on all these journeys... Just pointing that out in case you didn't stumble over that. :) Care to give me a clue as to when this occured? I guess I missed it, or didn't notice it. I could be wron...

Worst part: the stupid bandit tree. I'd spend something like fifteen minutes going in and out of the treehouse until the stupid bandit fell asleep every single time! I know this type of puzzle was typical of the earlier King's Quest games (like Grandma/the wolf in KQII or the troll caves in KQIV) bu...

Ah, that makes more sense; it's a list of all the awards and I just got two. Still don't know how I got the insomniac award (I didn't sleep, I guess?) but I'm pretty sure the klutz award involves a certain non-lethal fall that was present in the original game as well. I'm guessing that some of the o...

Just completed the game and I thought it was great! 207 out of 210 points (I didn't figure out the Medusa, er, Smaude thing and used the mirror). My question is: what are all the awards for after the end? Is there a list anywhere, or descriptions of what they are or how to achieve them? It was a coo...
