King's Quest 1 AGI Easter Egg

Was going through some Youtube videos and then ran into this Easter Egg. When guessing the gnome's name, type "Ken sent me" and then this happens.

I was unaware of that one. Did you test it yourself?

Yep, sure did. The gnome zaps Graham and a few seconds later he turns normal again. It still counts as one of the three guesses.

It would have been a better April Fool's gag if you'd used the proper AGI font.

The only easter egg response on that screen is for Mikel [Knight].

It worked, didn't it? On Collector no less :D

Andrew, Andrew... how could Larry possibly appear as a cameo in a 1984 game? ;)
