Laura Bow 2: The Dagger of Amon Ra (1992)

Playing this in 2024 I'm honestly surprised how it came out with all that racial and national stereotypes. But I guess back then in 1992 it was common. The same surprise I had also playing Leisure Suit Larry.

But apart of it the game is unique in a way. It is a murder mystery, with a bit of romance, that is divided into 6 acts. And instead of revealing the murder's identity, you will have to name him. The atmosphere is 1920s and it brought very well. Most of the game you spend in the museum, where you can find some real pieces of history, but also a lot of funny made-up descriptions. Also I love female characters in the game, they're fun and memorable. (The male characters are much less fun though, also most of them sound like chauvinistic swines)

Act 1 - as an aspiring journalist, Laura Bow is getting her first job in Tribune newspaper to write an article about stealing of recently founded ancient artifact - The dagger of Amon Ra. She is traveling New York and getting ready to attend the event at the Leyendecker Museum where all the main suspects will gather at 19:00

Act 2 - In this Act Laura Bow mostly talking to suspects and listening to gossip, until she finds the first body.

Act 3 - Act 4: From now on most of the suspects will be found dead in different parts of museum - and the job of Laura will be to gather all the possible clues - and if she could, also to question suspects - until they die. You will have to listen to dialogues you are not supposed to hear, find secret passages and steal evidence. (Do not try it at home, kids)

Act 5 - Has a bit of action, and if you missed some items before, you won't be able to pass further.

Act 6 - Laura Bow (if survive) will need to name suspect and motive for every murder, also answer several questions about some shenanigans going around in museum.

The Dagger of Amon Ra overall is easier than other Sierra games, and has less dead ends. But you will need to be observant to get all the suspects and motives right in Act 6 to get the good end (there are three possible endings). Act 1 and Act 2 can be a bit repetitive, but from the act 3 the game is playing like a mystery novel in Agata Christie's style. Some moments are a bit gruesome, but the dark humor is a feature of older quests.

I've been working on a big project the last couple of months that I cant share anything from just yet. In the meantime, enjoy some classic early Sierra DOS game fanart.

CRYING. SCREAMING. THROWING UP.

#kelly watches cr #OH THAT WAS NICE. THAT WAS SO NICE. I ADORE how this came from a conversation of forgiveness and healing. GOD.#they are not fixing each other they are fixing themselves to be a better version and enjoy one another #they are ALWAYS on the same page it's so insane to me like when percy starts to talk about it and vex gets excited #because it was exactly what she was trying to say #and she's not the one good with words so it gets so fun watching her get more and more excited with the conversation #once percy duels more into it and then she's all giggles taking off her bow and showing him her cravings #also GOD BLESS TRAVIS. he was SO EXCITED FROM THE FUCKING START #SAME I was hiding giggling twirling my hair they make me SOOO NORMAL.#it seems to me that some of them talked about it before because matt seemed to encourage tal with the kiss #its SOOO CUTE how they can make sure things go well while improvising all the rest... the way percy ends with a commentary about vax #and vex laughs it off and the conversation gets a lot more light-hearted so it doesn't feel too out there that he kissed her #it's so funny seeing this kiss vs vaxleth “you know I'm im love with you right?” THEY ARE TRULY OPPOSITES #percahlia cautiously walking around each other for so long. vax having to talk some sense into his sister.#and just omg im not over how they found middle ground there in the forest.#vex calling him to talk just because she wanted to and it escalating to them understanding each other more than themselves could #its so cute seeing laura's and tal's reaction to it you can picture percahlia doi g the exact same expressions #and getting overwhelmed with the thought of the other having the exact same thought #it stuns me they really have nothing alike one another but they just are perfect for each other solely for the fact that they get it #they truly seem to react differently to most stuff but still being there on the same page.#idk how to describe it but the way percy always interacts with vex makes me think that's exactly what she deserves #and the same goes for the other way around. like they don't need each other but they deserve what they have in each other #ITS SO. I CARE THEM SO MUCH YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND.#going insane over these guys i need fanart why am I so late im scared to search for fanart and see spoilers BUT OH MAN DO I NEED IT #screaming you with the dark curls song while staring at the ceiling and thinking about percahlia for unhealthy amounts of hours #i had forgot to post about her kiss before so i just did it NOT REALLY KNOWING WE WOULD HAVE ANOTHER ONE THIS EPISODE #thinking about the fact that percy doesn't know that vex said she was giving him her heart and that she kissed him #and how that means he had to gather so much courage to kiss her in the woods.... running away right after... how vex didn't told him abt it #.... cowards in love. my favorite trope. I swear these two are just a pair of friends that are so into each other its so simple and healthy #i just.. i love love. i love complex characters having simple beautiful things.. they deserve the entire world actually but I'll take this.
