Sierra Quest launch party with Leisure Suit Larry, King Graham, Roger Wilco and Laura Bow.

After more than a year of development, I'm incredibly excited to announce that Sierra Quest is officially released and available to download for free on Windows, macOS and Linux!

What started with Roger Wilco pressing a button marked "DO NOT TOUCH" in the original Space Quest has turned into something much bigger than I ever imagined.

Sierra Quest is a free, fan-made point-and-click adventure that brings together characters and worlds from some of Sierra's most beloved games. Roger Wilco, King Graham, Laura Bow, Sonny Bonds and plenty of other familiar faces come together in an entirely new adventure filled with puzzles, exploration, nostalgia and classic Sierra humour.

And this isn't just a short trip down memory lane. With approximately 5–6 hours of gameplay, there's a whole new adventure to experience, featuring familiar locations, original puzzles, unexpected encounters and plenty of Easter eggs for Sierra fans to discover.

A labour of love

Creating Sierra Quest has been an incredible journey. From bringing classic Sierra backgrounds and characters together to designing new puzzles and building the tools needed to make it all work, this project has been a real labour of love.

It's also been wonderful sharing the development process with the Sierra community, particularly getting to introduce the game at Portland Retro Gaming Expo earlier this month. They say you should never meet your heroes, but getting to meet some of the Sierra alumni behind the games I grew up loving - and watching them play Sierra Quest - has genuinely been one of the highlights of my life. It's an experience I'll never forget.

My hope is that Sierra Quest captures some of the magic of playing these games for the first time, while offering something new for longtime fans to enjoy.

I'd love to hear what you think! Let me know how your adventure goes, which familiar faces you encounter and what Easter eggs you manage to uncover.

Finally, a huge thank you to everyone who has followed the project, offered encouragement, contributed their talents or helped along the way. Your support has meant a great deal.

Now, it's time to play!
