Lucas's backstory (0)

You know, I'm not Catholic, but I know people who are, including people who have/will have doctoral degrees in Catholic Theology, and I find the Lucas backstory pretty bizzare - I can check, but I'm pretty sure that nothing about Catholicism implies that God has a religion. Who would He be worshipping?

Scroll error: Read "Belongs to" instead of "has a".

Re: Lucas's backstory (0)

Well, that makes more sense, though I doubt in reality a priest would be kicked out for that. There are several ways to interpret them, some perfectly in line with current Catholic views (as I understand them), and others that, if a person held them, he probably wouldn't want to be a Catholic priest anyway.

Re: Lucas's backstory (+1)

This is a game, eytanz, just a game.

Re: Lucas's backstory (0)

Well, sure. But I'm a pedant

I'm not saying that you should change this, by the way. I'm just telling you what I was thinking as I was reading the scrolls. I assume that I represent at least some of your playing population in this, so I thought I'd let you know. But honestly, Wonderquest is such a great puzzle game that you could have all your scrolls be quotes from the Microsoft EULA and I'd still be happy playing it.

If we're going over backstories, it's the archer's I'd be more worried about. Most Trek fans would know it was primarily a TV series, not a movie series.

Yep! changes made.

I was a Star Wars fan when I was a child. (Original episodes)
but I never watched the Star trek series and movies.

Any bugs, please post! Don't be lazy!

I want to have all WQ text corrected before releasing the final version.

Re: Lucas's backstory (0)

if it's possible to isolate the scroll text, I could fairly quickly go through it all for English usage things (like I read a sentence somewhere on level 12 using "doesn't" instead of "don't")...

The room is Arzhot volcano (west) right?

The actual text is:

Is it correct? or should I use:

Any spelling errors, just post.

Also, any true Trekkie would use a phaser rather than a bow

Perhaps a phaser made with bamboo sticks.

Re: Lucas's backstory (0)

Or maybe he's a big fan of the latest series's Captain Archer.
