What players think
The recurring themes across 300 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
I would have liked it if alt-tabbing to Windows didn't mess up the graphics to the point the game isn't playable without closing the game and starting it again, though, especially since Space Quest 1, 4, 5, and 6 all have some form of copy protection which requires that you either look at the digital manual in Windows away from the game, or Google the copy protected solutions on another computer or Smart Phone.

Space Quest I: Its gameplay and graphics have been improved upon to feature Space Quest IV tech, meaning full mouse support with no typing required (except to name your save files).
Theme by theme
Every theme is scored by what reviewers actually said about it, not just whether they recommended the game.
Ranked by how many sampled reviews mention each topic. A topic sits in a column by what reviewers said about that topic; the percentage beside it is how many of them recommended the game anyway. 2 more themes were each raised by fewer than 6 sampled reviews and are not shown.
