Crumble Cat Cookie in Porridge

I just did something that I thought I would never do in my entire life:

I beat King's Quest 3.

When I was a kid I used to go to my friend's house and load 5.75" floppy disks into the computer and we would attempt to play the game, but we couldn't do anything right. The wizard would always find us and disintegrate our little hero.

Recently I found an emulator for old Lucasarts and Sierra games, downloaded the data files for Kings Quest 3 and then found a walkthough online.

Yeah, I know using a walkthough is cheating and thank god for it because that game is stupid and impossible if you don't know what you're doing. How are you supposed to know that you need to "move books," "pull lever," "grab cat," "get cat hair," "get toad spittle," "get cup of ocean water," the list goes on and on.

I'm a smart guy and I like solving puzzles; but playing King's Quest 3 was, and still is, pretty much impossible if you don't know what you're doing. How was I supposed to know that I had to turn into a fly to find the bandit's hideout? Or that I could find the magic teleportion map in the back of the wizards closet? Or that I needed to crumble the cat cookie I made into the porridge I stole from the three bears house(I'm not making this up)?

I beat it and it's kind of weird because the whole story revolve (eventually) around you saving the Princess from a three headed dragon. Oh, did I mention that the Princess is your sister, but you know that and that is why you are on your quest.

It's easier to figure things out after you have made the dough that you put in your ears to understand the language of animals. But first you need to have gotten a thimbleful of dew and a reptile skin from the endless desert, without being turned to stone by Medusa.

Obviously.
