You don't have to tell him to breath, the important part is to tell him to take a deep breath. I can't believe I actually beat that game without a guide as a kid.

Also that game has a huge gently caress-you in that if you get kissed by a random alien about three quarters thought he game an alien will burst out your chest in the last frame of the game giving you a game over. Hope you have a save far enough back.

I like to think the rubber tree gag in Secret of Monkey Island was Lucasart's way of trolling Sierra. I mean, if mocking is a form of trolling.

Sierra's old Space Quest was full of these moments. Actually, I think all the old Sierra adventure games were deliberately esoteric and designed to make people call their 900 hint line.

It's not a coincidence the genre imploded around the same time the internet took off.
