| EcoQuest (Video Game) | comment |
EcoQuest is a series of two adventure games by Sierra, designed primarily for younger audiences. The story follows Adam Greene, a young boy and son of an ecologist, who has a remarkable tendency to meet talking animals and be recruited to save their dying animal kingdoms from some hazard inflicted by mankind.In the first game, "The Search for Cetus", Adam meets a talking dolphin called Delphineus who was trapped in a fishing net and is being nursed back to health at a marine biology institution. Adam releases Delphineus back into the ocean, but the dolphin later comes back to request his aid. Together they dive to an underwater kingdom nestled among ancient Grecian ruins and populated by a wide variety of talking marine life (where everything from manatees to clownfish seem to be able to hold an intelligent conversation). Adam learns that the ruler of this kingdom — an old and wise sperm whale — has gone missing, and Adam is tasked with finding him. To make matters worse, a gigantic manta ray who was mutated by a hidden underwater radioactive waste dump has been terrorizing the kingdom and must be stopped. This game is also notable for being the first game designed by Jane Jensen, creator of the Gabriel Knight series.In the second game, "Lost Secret of the Rainforest", Adam and his father travel to South America. Adam falls asleep in a rowboat, and is quietly taken downriver by — you guessed it — a pair of talking river otters. He is now tasked with saving a gigantic ancient tree called "The Heart of the World" who's slowly dying. Adam meets a slew of talking amazonian wildlife, and ends up in a hidden village of natives deep in the forest. When the village and the huge tree are both burned down by a ruthless and greedy poacher and his thugs, Adam must travel to an ancient Inca city to retrieve a unique sapling which could one day grow to become a new "Heart of the World".Both games are characterized by cartoonish portraits and accessibility to children, and are some of the rare examples of Sierra games where the protagonist cannot die (no Have a Nice Death screen, otherwise a Sierra adventure staple). The puzzles are also slightly easier than the standard in Sierra adventures. Both games also have a pixel-hunt side-quest where Adam must pick up litter or record wildlife and ecological disturbances. Expect lots of Green Aesops, and yeah, talking animals. | |

Unintentionally Unwinnable: Do NOT forget to pick up the oil-dissolving bacteria at the start of the game. Pretty harsh considering that this is a game for children. This no longer seems to be an issue in the game (perhaps thanks to a patch), as Adam’s dad simply hands him the flask of oil-dissolving bacteria at the start of the game to make sure Adam doesn’t leave it behind. | |

Your Size May Vary: Flesh Eater is a big, scary thing no matter what, but his size tends to fluctuate suddenly. For instance when he swats Adam away and carries off Delphineus, or when he fights Cetus, Flesh Eater balloons up to somewhere like 3-5x the size he is when he chases Adam and Delphineus away from his lair late in the game. | |

The Password Is Always "Swordfish": The access code for Maxim Slaughter's organizer is his last name spelled backward. Somehow, Slaughter still needed to write it down on a piece of paper and hide it in the cabin. | |

And I Must Scream | |
| EcoQuest (Video Game) / int_a8a04f6f | comment |
And I Must Scream: The manual reveals that Flesh-Eater was once a normal Elurian named Icarus. His exposure to toxic waste mutated him to monstrous size and warped his mind, until he lost his ability to speak as well as his capacity for rational thought. Fortunately, Cetus states that this may be reversed once the poison is taken away. | |

| EcoQuest (Video Game) / int_a939d96a | comment |
Adults Are Useless: Adam usually has to solve all of people's problems by himself. However, there are some cases where adults are needed, like Adam calling the authorities to clear a sea cave of toxic drums. | |

Acceptable Breaks from Reality: Several in the first game: Adam's oxygen tank never runs out of air when underwater. Adam can talk underwater. Pressure depth doesn't affect him. Prolonged exposure to low temperature under water has no effect on Adam. | |

Broken Bridge | |
| EcoQuest (Video Game) / int_c5f23623 | comment |
The main antagonist of the game is a manta that has been mutated due to a nearby toxic (nuclear?) waste dump. He's not only turned into a gigantic monster, but has also become cruel, violent, and hungry for man-flesh. At one point Adam needs to use a signal buoy to call in a cleanup crew that will remove the toxic waste and open the way forward. | |

Shout-Out | |

Shout-Out: The theme for Eluria in the first game is similar to the music from The Little Mermaid (1989). In EcoQuest 2: "All that is gold does not glitter." A reference to The Lord of the Rings. | |
