This one is the funniest and best of them all. I wish they'd have stuck to its format. That might have saved the series. 6 was just impossible. There was no way anyone could turn the druidium detector thingy into a homing beacon unless they cheated. That's my biggest beef with sierra and the space quest series. I guess I understand from a business aspect to market and get people to pay more by buying the book, but it ruins it for me when the answers aren't there in the game. There were clues that it could be changed, but I never found anything to aid in what arrangement. If I'd have not looked, it'd have taken hundreds if not thousands of variations to find it, and that NOT fun.
Anyway, SQ5 is a game I recommend to EVERYONE. I was howling almost all the way through it!
