I was about to say 7th Guest, but that actually came on CD and I don't remember any docks. Oh well.

Put an end to popups!

Still the right sort of area.

Game clue (#3 i think)...

Your character's nickname is Lucky and you're hired to find someone by their father.

TV clue...your character in the game had the same first name as the TV character. The TV series was inspired by a 1930s Cary Grant film according to the producer.

Now the two aren't related buy i always felt there were similarities in style and content.

If this is turning too much into 'name the TV programme' shout....

Game clue number 4....

The person you're rescuing is a nurse. At the start of the game you get pulled around town by a coolie.

I was thinking of some private eye/mobster adventure game. I knew it had something to do with "Mr. lucky". I only realized I had the right answer afterwards.

Clue nr.4 must have triggered something in my subconscious.

I enjoyed the flavour of it - very biggles meets Indiana Jones and the artwork was very nice.

Indeed, a very nice adventure game (the tank actionscene was tricky!) although I prefer Rise of the Dragon for its atmosphere.

Alas, that grand old game, is not my goal today.


This one's from the early 90's and appeared on the PC and Amiga.


In this game you have to do a lot of dirty work
And playing boss maybe a perk
But my prime master is the one in politics
For whom I serve as a superfix


Get cracking!
