Or DRM-free via Humble Bundle (or GOG, I think).

It would be really great if some of the other LucasArts games got a makeover like that.  I would love to play X-wing vs. Tie Fighter with some modern graphics, Jedi Knight, etc.
What was no more, is now reborn!

Had only a couple of memory failures completing it again (still got the original box on my shelves, and did it tank mode, of course), but it just reminded me again of how much of a letdown everything after Rubacava felt in that game.  Almost as if they'd burnt 80% of their energies in that area.

Still worth a look, but the dated gameplay may not gel well with less crusty gamers who weren't around the first time and may miss all their conveniences.  The game does not hold your hand, and it expects you to remember details from conversations both direct and overheard to piece together with insights, guesses and sheer blind luck to figure out puzzle solutions.  not to mention the good old standby of 'OK, so what haven't I tried using with <thing A>, better start digging through my inventory.'

I'd like Maniac Mansion or Zak McCracken remade officially.
