Definitely. For my part, I live in Puerto Rico. English is not our main language, spanish is. So for us learning english is a bit difficult. By playing Sierra games found an easy and entertaining way to learn english, due to the early type games where you had to nail the language just right for the game to work. So by that I am very thankful to the early sierra games.
Later on many aspects of Sierra games inspired me. So I am very thankful to the Sierra Famili for giving me so much growing up. 😉
