About this game

Description

Supplied by the Steam store

Captain Z has a hat, seventeen doubloons and a title nobody believes. Ten years he swabbed Blackheart Briggs' decks; this morning he quit. Then he hears the rumour: the Hoard of the Drowned King is real, and Briggs is already hunting for it. First, Z needs a boat. Any boat.

The Perfect Quest is a short comedy text adventure inspired by the Sierra classics: there's no list of verbs to click, you type what you want to do. Walk with the arrow keys, type commands (LOOK, TAKE, USE THE PLANKS ON THE QUICKSAND, GIVE THE FISH TO THE GUARD) and talk to everyone. A sarcastic parrot tags along with hints for wherever you're stuck.

Four acts across seven islands: from a run-down tavern to a skull-shaped mountain at the end of the map

A forgiving parser that understands how people actually type

Classic deaths, with a joke and an epitaph, and TRY AGAIN to rewind a moment

Pixel art, living water and lamplight

An original soundtrack for every island

A sword fight on the beach with your old captain (read his moves, drive him into the sea)

255 points for completionists, and a secret or two under the waves

At a glance

24 locations across seven islands, linked by a sailing map

14 characters to talk to (and talk round)

About 60 items to find, combine and misuse

Around 900 written responses: nearly anything you look at, take or try gets an answer

255 points, 11 achievements and 11 original music tracks
