It's fascinating to me that they had a presence in Oakhurst for such a long time (up until the late 90s). I met a couple of people who worked there - one who had a side gig selling homemade salsa at flea markets and building custom PCs. It would have been an awesome job back in the day.

KQ 5/6 are two of my favorite games of all time. To this day, whenever I come across a snake while hiking, I immediately channel my inner Cedric to the annoyance of every other person in my group.

With respect to the "online" part of Sierra Online, I particularly remember "The Realm" [0] as ~1996 beta.
