Three Clues - Who Am I?

[notbobsmith]

Are you scuba tank #4 in the van?

Yes I am!

I am tall and round - The tanks are tall and round, obviously
But there is a square on me - 4 is a square number
Too heavy to use - You can't take the larger gray tank because "it is much too large for river diving".

The last one kind of puzzled me. You have to choose the one with the most air out of the 3 yellow tanks that are available. So why is this fourth one that you can't use there?

Maybe to show that police do (normally) have that kind of tank for other types of diving (deep lakes maybe?) in case a police officer who played was like, "Hey! That's not write! Where's the AUX2000 tank we use for deep lake diving?"

Well, damn. What a lucky guess. And didn't even think of the square number. lol

All right - lemme think.

Sometimes you have to take a chance
In order to see how lucky you might be
A heart in search of romance
Across the sea!

Gonna be, maybe, way too obvious. But I don't mind.

A little shot in the dark, but the first thing that comes to mind with "romance across the sea" is KQ6.

Are you in KQ6?

Are you in KQ6?

Fark. Yeah. Damn. I thought it was super obvious. But you're right, KQ6 matches that....

Sadly, not in KQ6.

Another little shot in the dark, but although it doesn't technically involve a "romance across the sea", this guess is obvious for another reason.

Are you in KQ4?

[Tawmis]

Also, not in King's Quest IV.

[notbobsmith]

Are you in LSL2?

[Tawmis]

Are you in LSL2?

Yes.

After ye said KQ6... I was like, "True... oh, and KQ2... oh, and..."

LOL. Funny when I wrote the clue I was so focused that it was gonna easily be guessed. But outside looking in, it can clearly allude to a few other games.

[Rath Darkblade]

I was so sure this would be in KQ4 (given that it's your favourite KQ game), that I overlooked all the other Quest games. Whoops! (Especially LSL, which could hardly be described as "romantic").

Although, haaaang on ... Larry also experiences "romance across the sea" (or a very tenuous facsimile thereof) in LSL7 ...

So, let's see. Are you the onklunk (aka the MacGuffin that Larry has to carry around all game)?

Sometimes you have to take a chance
In order to see how lucky you might be ........................................ Larry takes some awfully big chances with this thing all game. Also, in order to flirt with the Spanish senorita, he tries out his Spanish (and fails miserably), but it results in her giving him the onklunk.
A heart in search of romance
Across the sea! ...................................................................... Fairly self-explanatory now.

I said in search for romance (aka the title of LSL2 "looking for love")
search = look
romance = love

So, let's see. Are you the onklunk (aka the MacGuffin that Larry has to carry around all game)?

I am not.

So here's another clue:

I am not every lady's dream
And I am only ever seen on two screens.

Larry!

And I am only ever seen on two screens.

Not Larry

Are you found on Nontoonyt Island?

[Rath Darkblade]

Are you the haircut Larry receives that leaves him with the bald spot (i.e. in Los Angeles and the airport)?

Sometimes you have to take a chance
In order to see how lucky you might be ........................................ Larry gets a new haircut - one in LA (because he hopes to win the heart of Barbara Bimbo) and one in the airport (to get rid of the blond hair) - that leave him with the bald spot.

A heart in search of romance
Across the sea! ...................................................................... Fairly self-explanatory now.

I am not every lady's dream ...................................................... All the ladies make fun of Larry's bald spot

And I am only ever seen on two screens ....................................... Yes - in the barbershops in LA and the airport. Larry looks in the mirror, trying to see his own bald spot.

I am not.

Even though I said I only on two screens
I am not always seen
Sometimes I am just on one
Isn't this game so fun?

[notbobsmith]

Are you found in LA?

[Rath Darkblade]

Are you found on the ship?
