I finished Gobliiins! I saw this game in 1995 there was relatively young game (it introduced in 1991) and I was young too. After the 14 years I found this game and begin to play in it again..

You must remember this screen if you launched this game in the epoch of DOS games..

Look at it.. I like it! I like pixel-art and I like old games.. So Gobliiins isn’t a classic quest like Sierra’s quests or Kyrandia’s trilogy for a example. It’s sometimes stupid and sometimes funny (I laughed sometimes when I played even now =) ) but it has something original. By the way I never knew exactly about this strange name “Gobliiins”.. Why is there so much “i”?.. Because there are 3 goblins =) I ever know their names today - Asgard, Ignatius and Dwayne.. And Gobliins 2 has 2 “i” in the name according the same rule - there are 2 goblins Fingus and Winkle (I finished it a long time ago, but I think that I will come back and try to repeat it in some day). And Goblins 3 has one goblin.. And then become Gobliiins 4-3D (in 2009 year by the way), but I think 3D here is like a cat with 2 talls..

So I finished it and I get the final screenshot of the game.. How much people see it in 2009 year too in the world? =) And how much people listen goblin’s speech?…

But the hell with goblins for that moment.. I’m listening Larry Laffer’s soundtrack in my head for last 2-3 days.. And I know what the game will be next for my relaxation of coding =)

    My congratulations with the second part! It´s much harder than the first part - goblins can do something at the same time. I began and finished Larry Laffer 1 - In the Land of the Lounge Lizards today, I thought that it´s harder =)
    May be the second goblins will be soon for me too..

    I saw the trailer of new Goblins here (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eduD4XZ5xq4). IMHO it not looks like classic goblins and this graphics remind me games of the period about 1997-1999 when 3D graphics become popular but was still ugly and silicon-like =) But let´s see, may be is need try to play in it and I can change my mind..
