What I think is so great about the way Ken ran the company was that he was genuinely committed to giving game designers a great deal of creative freedom, and was willing to take risks on new ideas - something you don't see a lot of in today's large game companies.

Within the realm of adventure games, Sierra came out with an incredibly wide range of material. Their games were a big part of what got me into computers in the first place.



Their games also got me into computers. But they also encouraged me as a 10 year old to learn and understand English. I remember playing with 2 different dictionaries, looking up every word I didn't understand. Thanks Ken & Roberta!
