I've never played this one

Only played the 4th one (Escape from I think...) and most people said it was the worst of the lot...

You're too young to remember when it first came out!

I think I had MK1 on 5 1/4 inch discs!! But I only had the 16 colour version, I now have the 256 colour version and it's a lot better. The dialogue is one of my favourite bits of the game!

I absolutely adore all Lucasarts games, bar all the strategy ones as I find those boring (the only game of that ilk I liked was Civilisation!!).

Hmm games like this should be best left untouched tbh. Better off playing the Lucasarts classics using ScummVM.

Oh I dunno - I think the old point and clicks could really make use of the achievement system, leading you down lesser known subquests to comedy dialogue for example.
