Loved the episode! I grew up playing Keen Dreams and Episodes 4 & 5. Our school had a copy of them and they (along with Lemmings) got heavy usage/rotation around the classrooms. I always waited/hoped for a VGA revised version, like the King’s Quest games got later, but it never happened. I wonder if ID will ever consider it for the 40th Anniversary (which is scarily fast approaching).
