Freddy Pharkas: Frontier Pharmacist is a 90s Point-and-Click adventure game. Considered one of Sierra's best, and possibly even one of the best adventure games of the 2D VGA era. Strangely, despite being very successful, it did not receive a sequel.Set in the Wild West, this game follows the exploits of a gunslinger named Frederick "Freddy" Pharkas (Hungarian roots unexplored). Freddy, having been proclaimed the best gunslinger in the mid-west, meets his match at the hands of the ominously-named outlaw Kenny the Kid. Kenny shoots Freddy's ear off in a duel, prompting Freddy to forsake gunslinging and vow never to pick up a pistol again. Instead, Freddy picks up his other hobby: pharmacology. He moves to the town of Coarsegold, CA (a few miles away from Sierra's headquarters in Oakhurst), and never reveals his past to any of the townsfolk.Years later, trouble comes to Coarsegold when the local Sheriff starts shutting down businesses left and right, declaring that their buildings are "fire-hazards" (which is kind of understandable, since the whole town is built out of wood). When Freddy tries to investigate a little into the matter, his pharmacy is nearly put to the torch one night. Realizing that something is afoot, Freddy eventually concedes to his fate, returning to his old gunslinging ways in order to save his beloved town.The game includes adult themes and plenty of sultry, witty humor by Josh Mandel and Al Lowe (of Leisure Suit Larry fame). It also contains some notoriously difficult arcade sequences. The game comes with an extensive manual on common diseases and pharmacology, written in 19th century style (thus containing, obviously, many hilarious misconceptions about medical practice as a whole). There are several points in the game where Freddy must utilize a well-equipped pharmaceutical laboratory to concoct pills and potions from a large variety of chemicals. |

Exactly What I Aimed At |

comment |
Exactly What I Aimed At: Freddy confronts a poker cheat named Wheaton "Aces" Hall in a saloon. When Aces pulls out a gun, Freddy upturns a table and hides behind it. The player is then given a targeting cursor, and everything you can hit with it results in a trick shot. Only one specific object ends up bouncing the bullet into a chandelier that falls on Aces, though. |

Animated Actors: The Hilarious Outtakes reveal this. The end credits were broken up into chunks, alternating between real credits, and then scenes where the actors got out of character and complained to the game's director. Interestingly enough, the "actors" playing the characters had different names than those of the characters' own voice actors. |

Pinball Projectile |
| | Freddy Pharkas: Frontier Pharmacist (Video Game) / int_3700d6d8 |
comment |
Pinball Projectile: During the final chapter, when Freddy accuses a villainous poker player of cheating locals out of their homes and businesses in card games, the guy pulls a gun on him, leading to a standoff in the saloon where the player must find something to ricochet their gun off of while taking cover behind a table. Aim wrong, and the bullet bounces all over the place and eventually kill an innocent bystander - but instead of issuing a Game Over for this (as one would normally expect from a Sierra adventure game), it rewinds the scene (ricochets and all) so the player can try again. |

Copy Protection: The recipes for the medicines you have to distribute at the start of the game are All There in the Manual. Only problem is, when the game was re-released in the Sierra Originals version, only a truncated version of the manual was included in the CD booklet, and one of the required recipes was left out entirely. Due to this, Al Lowe has put the entire doc on his website. |

Paper-Thin Disguise: The disguise used by Freddy in the last act consists of a change of clothes, a neckerchief (which is actually worn around the neck), and a silver ear. Nobody realizes that the man with the silver ear is actually the one-eared pharmacist, up until the Big Bad captures him and removes the fake ear. |

Berserk Button: Whittlin' Willy is typically a cheerful guy, only two things will get him mad. One is when Freddy sells out. Willy says he sort of resents him for that and for all he cares he could've died in a pharmacy and good riddance to him. The thing that really gets to him (to the point of Suddenly Shouting) is taking advantage of the town's ignorance. Apparently the entire city was built on oil fields and noone knew except the main villain. He adds that they ain't stupid they just had no idea what oil EVEN WAS! He then after that says he's riled and not to talk to him. |

Shout-Out |
| | Freddy Pharkas: Frontier Pharmacist (Video Game) / int_c75df49a |
comment |
Shout-Out: One of the medications in the pharmacy is a hemorrhoid cream called "Preparation G", presumably a forerunner to modern hemorrhoid cream Preparation H. The game makes a few shout-outs to other Sierra games. One of the people in the bar is Zircon Jim Laffer, ancestor to Leisure Suit Larry (whom he resembles closely). There's a bridge that informs you every time you cross it that you have only three crossings left (the number never goes down), referencing a bridge that actually does have limited crossings in King's Quest II: Romancing the Throne. Cedric the Owl has a cameo. A very short cameo. Dying in certain circumstances causes the narrator to wrap up Freddy's story, then launch into new ones, containing references to another King's Quest game, The Adventures of Willy Beamish, and (in a non-Sierra reference) The Music Man. A few pieces of paper in the general store are full of these, including a letter from King Graham, a message from Dr. Miklos, who lost her pet ferret Daisy, and a wanted poster for Al Lowe himself, complete with a reference to one his first games, Bop-A-Bet. Using the shovel on the loose floorboards in Freddy's pharmacy will cause a monster to crawl from underneath the boards, saying "I'll swallow your soul!", to which Freddy replies "Come get some." The cutscene of the snail stampede falling off the cliff looks like a stage from Lemmings. |
