Are you ready to drool? I mean, ARE YOU READY TO DROOL?
The picture below is one of the 115 original story board pictures of King's Quest VII. Will scan them all when I have the time.

Very nice. It would be great if all of the Sierra art had survived, especially all of the background paintings used in the games. I'm curious as what will be in The Art of Sierra book.

I just recently found out about that work in progress.. does anyone know an anticipated release date, projected cost, and projected availability? Is there a "preorder" list somewhere?

I'm just wondering now how many other jewels and gems I'm missing out on... :D

I’m drooling! Have any more? Did you buy them from an ex-Sierra employee? Know any history about them?

(cute kitty too) ;D

Yep, 115 of them in total. I still have to receive them though.

Yep, from a Sierra alumni. As for each picture's history, I will learn plenty about them soon :).

Whoa! Looks snazzy! I am always amazed with how many games were made by the entire Sierra branch (Sierra and everyone else they purchased/acquired) that I have never heard of.

Gee, looks familiar. Of course you know that there is an SHP installer for that.

Just installed it and played for a few minutes. I changed your default dorectory from Dynamix to Sierra and all worked well. Wish I'd known about that game when my nephew was little. He would've got a kick out of it.
