Here's Nannercat getting the world record at Space Quest III. I hadn't realized that speedrunning old AGI games would require you to type accurately and quickly. That's my nightmare!https://www.twitch.tv/videos/119207165 …

Oh, wow!!! This was my favourite Sierra game. Also, I think it’s (late) SCI. AGI came later and had no typing?

AGI came earlier and did in fact have typing. Typing that didn't block the game, even!

I mean, an AGI speedrun would be horrible, typing wise

Ah, so it belongs to early SCI even though it more resembles AGI in terms of UI?

yeah. early SCI worked pretty much the same way as AGI, from a UI perspective.

Except for the whole thing where SCI blocks the game while you're typing and AGI only does that on certain system configurations. Hercules I believe.

Yep! I remember that. Modal window vs. “command line.”
