It just says something like, "You don't need to use the word "cheat" in this game." If you try to jump down the hole it will either say, "Why?" or "You don't need to do that." If you look down the hole it says, "You don't need to use the word "hole" in this game," if you look at the hole it says, "It's more like a crack or a crevice than a hole." Finally, the game doesn't allow you to type anything in after you die. Hope that clears everything.
Oh wow, I never heard of that game indeed. Thanks for showing this :). I noticed I developped and obsession with ways to die in Sierra Games with all those videos haha !!!
Well, I did do some research on patents and copyrights. Apparently they last for 20 years. So I guess since it was made in 1990 meaning it's been 22 years and no other company has purchased this game it is technically no longer copyrighted material. I suppose that does mean it's no longer illegal... I'm still making the walkthrough though.
I have never heard of this ,either, but that was sure fun to watch. Thank you! Love the Audrey II reference. But I can't believe how GORY the deaths are!
I had this game right after its release, and I LOVED it... but I never finished it. Obviously, this was in the days when there weren't any Internet walkthroughs available, and this sort of game wasn't easy to solve. But, it made a memorable impression on me. I still have the disks, but at least one was damaged/corrupted somehow (even if I still had a floppy drive today, which I don't). I've always wanted to give this one another shot.
Oh I knew this game existed, I had played it before on Mom's old DOS computer, and I had been searching for it since. I think the farthest I have ever gotten is about 250 points (out of 600?). I was thinking, now that I am older and wiser, I would not be stuck in the same place I used to be when I was of single-digit age.
7:47 It's a Mantis warrior from FTL: Faster Than Light! Also follows canon that they're the quickest moving crew members in the game, deal double damage... well, in the case of Earthrise, kill in one hit.
A video walkthrough would be great, if you ever decide to do it! I wasn't asking or hinting for pirating software, by the way, I was just mentioning that I still have the box and disks. I think it's relatively rare, unless I'm very much mistaken. It's a shame, since it was well above average, I thought.
Kinda reminds me of the (german) "Mission Supernova" (which did came a few years later to my knowledge) .. the airlock scene, for example. Maybe the author got inspired by this a little? ;)
it seems that the slime or toxic waste spill death especially when the game says well that's one way to clean your sinuses was stolen for the vga remake version of space quest 1 when you sniff the green slime goo
the game should have gave an alternate death message after you removed your helmet & clipped it to your belt it should have said something like there is something very unpleasant about being in an unpressurized environment without a helmet on which you should have kept on and only removed it somewhere safe before giving the rest of the message also whenever this death occurs in general it should say if you if you were still breathing which impossible to do without a head you'd p.k.y.
what happens if you type in die or cheat or type in a very bad word like the f word or s word? what does the game say when you type in die cheat or fuck or type in something that you don't need to type in?
Well, seeing that distributing copyrighted material is illegal, I can't send you my files. All I can legally do is a video walkthrough of it if no one else does.
In response to copyright questions, I released this game into the public domain years ago. Have at it.
THANK YOU!!!
You did? Thank you, Mr. Gruson!
I'm sorry I didn't played your game, Mr Gruson...
THANK YOU!!!
Man old school games didn't mess around when it came to game overs.
Zalure Lip!
"Dead Space is such a gruesome horror game"
Me, an intellectual:
Ok these deaths may be horrible (painful horrible not bad horrible) but the finger death was actually kinda funny
Hmm... that's one doomed space marine

These deaths are pretty gruesome, even by today's standards!
Oh wow, I never heard of that game indeed. Thanks for showing this :). I noticed I developped and obsession with ways to die in Sierra Games with all those videos haha !!!
I never heard before about this game! But, as I see already -- Sierra's games were a serious inspiration )))
....I think the part at 9:37 may have just trumped over 95% of all the weird and ridiculous deaths that Sierra threw at us all these years.
I remember getting this one as an end-of-school-year present back when I was 13.
I think you forgot to jump over the crack as that leads to a slightly different death animation where you hit your head on the ceiling and then fall.
I actually remember this one. I could have sworn it was a Sierra game, but it turns out my memory was playing tricks on me.
4:34 has to be one of the most graphic deaths I've ever seen.
You'd think it was made by Sierra.

Good bloody gore gameplay
That's cool, just wanted to give you a heads up and to say you are one of my favorite channels on here so thanks for all your awesome videos. :)

Way to go, wingnut.
Day is done, gone the sun,
From the lake, from the hills, from the sky
All is well, safely rest, God is nigh.

NASA safety video.
The same thing if you type in something it's not programmed to understand. It just says you don't need to use the word in the game.
Hey, I live 15 minutes from Middletown, CT!
Kinda reminds me of the (german) "Mission Supernova" (which did came a few years later to my knowledge) .. the airlock scene, for example.

You have (insert some single word describing your untimely, stupid demise here)
it seems that the slime or toxic waste spill death especially when the game says well that's one way to clean your sinuses was stolen for the vga remake version of space quest 1 when you sniff the green slime goo
3:10 SPLAT haha

Ha! I live twelve minutes from Middletown, Connecticut!
I'm pretty sure this game is abandonware at this point so I don't think you'll get into trouble. :)
4:04 Game shoulda said "You have been slimed."
what happens if you type type in jump down hole or pit or look hole or look down hole what does the game say?
what happens if you type in die or cheat or type in a very bad word like the f word or s word? what does the game say when you type in die cheat or fuck or type in something that you don't need to type in?
what does the game say if you type in something after dying?
I actually got this game for cheap in 1993.
Now you know How Bart Simpson died.
Don't mess around
Well, seeing that distributing copyrighted material is illegal, I can't send you my files. All I can legally do is a video walkthrough of it if no one else does.
Audrey II... lol.
what does the game say if you type in fuck or any other bad word?
seems like a rip off of space quest
That's what made me think it was a Sierra game.
Space quest Ripoff!! Don't play
