I think in the 80's Sierra was ahead of their time with this game format.
So really one could take an existing game and completely redesign it
to a new game, which could be the answer for those who are having
trouble with 6809 machine language and so forth.
My thing with the OS-9 based Sierra games was the character walked a
bit too slow for me, but I still spent a lot of time in KQ3 just
trying to solve it. I remember the walk-thru I had didn't quite work
for me for some reason.
