Your combined forces are correct.
- The walls are colored incorrectly (they're not purple, they're blue)
- The tapestries, as a result, were recolored to blue rather than purple
- The Grahams do not have green eyes
- The crown on the floor - this is from KQ4 - when the crown is thrown - Graham suffers his heart attack - so as soon as it's thrown he collapses. So he's not standing when it's on the floor. (Which means it's removed from the table next to the throne)

- There are two thrones - the thrones were untouched.

- The one very, very, very minor detail is the gem in the Queen's crown - it's actually green, not red.

Here is the original:

Also, the gem in Graham's crown is blue. (You coloured it red in the re-make). :)

The new screenshot looks like it's from Gold Rush. I never played Gold Rush, so I can't guess about it without consulting Sierra Chest, which feels like cheating. :( Is it allowed?

You need to play more Sierra games! :D
Or watch my playthrough! hahaha

Consulting SierraChest would be too easy since that's where I grabbed the screenshot from. :D

I'd say let others try to stab at it... who have played GoldRush. :)

Also I don't think it's a gem in his crown, but the actual background. In mine, I did color it red to make it like a gem. But in the original, I am not 100% sure if it's a gem or just the background (which is the same blue).

EDIT: It's a blue gem. It remains in the crown when he walks to get the hat.

I've played Gold Rush and I can't really see anything out of place.

I'm not sure what LIJS stands for but I'm pretty sure that's correct.
I think the background might be off. I'm not sure what's supposed to be there, but the blue and turquoise bands don't look right.

Beyond that, no clue.

I took this screen shot:

https://sierrachest.com/gfx/games/GoldRush/ss/075.png

And took the men at the bonfire and moved it there - as well as the three to the right - and moved them there too.

Which resulted in what I made:

Probably the Sierra game I hate the most. Way above Codename: Iceman. Lighthouse.

There's AT LEAST 3 things wrong with this picture that are different than the game.

And yes, Rath, I know ye've not played it. I don't mind if ye check SierraChest, but if ye do, put your guesses in spoiler tags.

I did this one just to do a little more extra photo edits.

And while that one sits there, one Rath can partake in, as I assume he's played Police Quest... there's AT LEAST three things wrong...

Hmm ... I think that:

1. There is some kind of statuette (?) on the left side of the bottom shelf that you didn't include.

2. On the shelves on the left, there should be something on the bottom shelf that you took out.

3. There should be something on the floor, next to the armchair on the left, that you took out.


I can't think of anything else. :)

I'm pretty sure I know this one. (And yes, I played PQ1 - both EGA and VGA - as well as PQ2 and 3). I think that:

1. You forgot the bouncer outside the disco. (Only kidding). ;) The "Disco" sign shouldn't be there. That's from LSL1.

2. The windows above the non-disco are the wrong colour.

3. The door on the building beneath the green sign is the wrong colour.

4. The bricks on the building above the green sign are the wrong colour.


I can't seen anything else wrong with this, though.

(By the way, how do you post a big picture like this? I tried, and I only got a thumbnail). *shrug*

The PQ1 one:

The disco is supposed to be closed. This screen is supposed to look like one from LSL1 and it looks like you replaced the PQ background with that one.

I'm not sure if this is one, but the police car lights are usually flashing when you have her pulled over. They don't look like they are flashing here.

This is driving me crazy since I played this one a lot, but I don't think the car is a convertible.

The color of their eyes?

Lighthouse. Not even sure where to start here. Played it once and I don't have fond memories either.

I think there should be more clutter on the shelf on the left.

Is the picture of the dog yours? :)

Something about that footrest looks out of place.

I removed something on the left shelf...
The slippers next to the chair on the floor....
Extended the books on the bottom shelf...
The picture was changed to a picture of Odin...
The plant was changed to look more like a cactus...

Pretty much got all of them... I think the only thing missed was two small things...
The Windows under the & Co on the far left were changed (I think... I need to check)...
I inserted the Disco sign from LSL sine it's the same building...
Windows above the Disco are all changed in color - though making them two different colors, you might think one was right...
Bricks in the upper far right were changed...
Color of the window beneath the green sign was changed...
And I added an extra black bar on the "Call Taxi" yellow box (above Sonny's car).

I can't believe I was wrong about Helen Hots' car being a convertible.
