Space Quest II is a game that makes babies cry. Seriously, even if you know exactly what to do it can be hell (future game designers: please not to be including mazes with curved passages 2 pixels wide where touching the walls means instant death, kthx). And critical objects are found in locations you often don't even know about because the entrances and exits to them are almost invisible. Plus the greatest strength of SQ, satirizing other science-fiction franchises, is rendered moot because Roger spends most of the game in a desolate jungle!

All in all, anyone who thinks Sq6 is the worst in the series probably hasn't played this one in a while.
