Freddy Pharkas: Frontier Pharmacist

About this game

Freddy Pharkas: Frontier Pharmacist is one of the games that Al Lowe was the primary writer for during his time at Sierra. Besides of course the Leisure Suit Larry series. This demo version of the full graphic adventure game highlights the mouse-driven interface of the later Sierra titles, shared by other games of the time such as Space Quest IV. This game takes place during the gold rush era, and as usual you click around, die frequently, and eventually give up and use a hint guide. Sierra didnt produce many playable demos for their games; not sure why this one was chosen! But from what Ive read its an enjoyable game with rather obscure and inane puzzles that will perhaps have you reaching for that hint guide sooner than other games.
