It turns out that nearly every single AGI-engine adventue game ever released by Sierra has the exact same debug mode. Since this is an engine-wide thing, should it be it's own page, or copy-pasted into a bunch of pages for each game?

Oh yeah, have some SCUMM and Humungous Entertainment debug codes too - the SCUMM ones are different enough with each game so that's not a worry, but Humungous has the same problem.

I was messing around with the room change feature in SCUMMVM in Humongous Entertainment games a few years back. Many of them have item selects and other stuff. I know Spy Fox 2 has an anti-cheat message if you try to do something important to the plot while the path you've chosen is different.

I suppose that could depend upon whether or not there are any differences (additional commands, etc.) between any of the games.

If we did set up a separate page, how should we do it? Something like the "system-independent" tools / GS/PAR-type hardware pages? Someone would probably have to go a little more in-depth with the debug commands and what they do, though - rather than just a list of the commands and sparse descriptions (if any), as I usually see whenever someone mentions the debug modes.

Hmm... wonder if that Maniac Mansion PC code would work on the C64 version. One of these days, I'm going to have to actually get around to pulling out my C64, again. Don't know if it'll work with my VCR+HDTV combo, or if my 5" disks still work, but... wait, what was I thinking about, again?

Thanks for being a part of us, even if it wasn't always on the best of terms.

There are.

King's Quest III's debug mode seems to have a lot more features than King's Quest II's, including but not limited to several commands relating to KQ3-specific features like the wizard Manannan. Also, the KQ3 debug mode is activated differently then the KQ2 one.

The alt attribute should be used to give a short description
of an image; longer descriptions should be given with the
longdesc attribute which takes a URL linked to the description.
These measures are needed for people using non-graphical browsers.

For further advice on how to make your pages accessible
see http://www.w3.org/WAI/GL.
You are recommended to use CSS to specify the font and
properties such as its size and color. This will reduce
the size of HTML files and make them easier to maintain
compared with using <FONT> elements.

You are recommended to use CSS to control line wrapping.
Use "white-space: nowrap" to inhibit wrapping in place
of inserting <NOBR>...</NOBR> into the markup.
