Absolutely, but precision was also a bit of a problem for the text based games. I remember Space Quest was the king of this, requiring frequent saving to make it past certain sections where a single accidental button press could cause you to fall off a ledge or step on something that just killed you.

If you, say have a movement disorder, this happens all too often.

Still I have so many great memories of Sierra’s games from my childhood that I can’t bring myself to hate all the foibles.

My favourite pixel hunter was and still is Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis :-)

Can't imagine myself playing that kind of game again but back then this semi-serious and comfortably safe (no real danger and no sierra deadends as well) gameplay felt right for the 7-8 year old.

Oh, and Kyrandia..!

Both games are classics, Indy 4 is one of my favorite games of all time.
