Reply To: Which version to play?
I also think the EGA version is the one that perfectly shows the artist hand, because Mark Ferrari mentioned in an interview (that I can’t find, so, don’t quote me) that he was very frustrated with the limited EGA palette working on Zak McKracken, and he started to experiment with several dithering techniques for Loom and Monkey Island, pushing the team to find a way to compress them with all that detail. The http://www.superrune.com page mentions he used the new dithering gradient tool in Deluxe Paint for backgrounds, but the rest was pixel by pixel.
The VGA version washes out that hard work, that it is kind of a shame.
