That's not quite true. After AGI, Sierra developped SCI (Sierra Creative 
Engine). The first version of SCI, SCI0, only supports 16 colors like AGI, 
but supports a resolution of  320x200 instead of 160x200. Space Quest 3, 
Leisure Suit Larry 2 & 3, Police Quest 2, Quest For Glory, Conquest of 
Camelot and many others were SCI0 games. Unfortunately, no SCI interpeter 
was ever written for the coco.

You're welcome! I hope people will have as much fun playing them as I had 
when I adapted them for the coco.
