No.

Nope.

Oh! DPX coming in with the hard one (if you know what I mean, and I think you do! 'Natch! - Larry Laffer).

Is the game made after 1990 (according to this list: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_S ... ideo_games )?

Yes.

Are you in a Sierra game and not one of the subsidiaries (e.g. Dynamix, Game Arts, etc.)?

Hmmm, you're not a living thing. OK ... are you made of wood?

(Larry, shush!)

No, I am not.

Are you made of metal of some kind?

Is the game made after 1993?

Yes.

No. The specific game I'm thinking of was NOT made after 1993.

Well. Here's what we know so far:

1. The game was made after 1990, but not after 1993. That gives us a range of 1991-3.
2. The game was not made by a subsidiary, but by Sierra themselves.
3. You are made of metal, not of wood. (Shush, Larry).

That still leaves us the following games:

1991
Castle of Dr. Brain
Conquests of the Longbow
EcoQuest: The Search for Cetus
Leisure Suit Larry 1 (SCI Remake)
Leisure Suit Larry 5
Mixed-Up Fairy Tales
Police Quest 3
Mixed-Up Mother Goose
Space Quest 4
Space Quest 1 (SCI Remake)
==================
1992
The Dagger of Amon Ra
The Island of Dr. Brain
King's Quest 6: Heir Today, Gone Tomorrow
Police Quest 1 (SCI Remake)
Quest for Glory 1 (SCI Remake)
Quest for Glory 3
WWII: 1946
==================
1993
Police Quest IV: Open Season
EcoQuest 2: Lost Secret of the Rainforest
Freddy Pharkas: Frontier Pharmacist
Space Quest 5
Leisure Suit Larry 6
Pepper's Adventures in Time
Quest for Glory: Shadows of Darkness
Sid & Al's Incredible Toons
Take a Break! Pinball
Gabriel Knight 1: Sins of the Fathers
==================
That's a seriously long list in just 3 years. Let's try to narrow it down a bit ... as for the game you are in - is it a role-playing game?

(And yes, all games are role-playing games to some extent - you play a role, i.e. the hero/heroine ... but let's not start that again).

Actually the game was not one of the Sierra titles.

Are you in a Gobliiins game?

Not exactly. Remember, the original question only gave the options of "before 1990" or "after 1990."
