      maybe someone could finally answer this for me. i have always wondered if there was a blackbird for the thief to get in QG1. i have heard that there is, but i could never find it. i know there is in EVERY other QG game, so i figured there would be in part one. does anyone know a definite answer?

      Of course there is a BlackBird in QFG 1 !
      To discover it, you should act like a ‘good’ thief, break into people’s houses at night, pick the locks of drawers & move pictures to find safes !

      Good luck!

      ok, im just overlooking it. i CANT find it. i replayed it lots of times since you told me it was in there and i just cant see it. im not quite sure what you mean by ‘be a good thief’. i have looked in both desks and the safe in the sheriff’s house. what am i doing wrong? the only 2 places in the game to rob are the old lady’s house and the sheriff’s house, right?

      I remember it not being able to be stolen.  It’s in the treasure
      room when you break into the brigand fortress and pour the potion on
      Elsa.

      JT, there’s people on the QfG Sierra boards that know an unbelievable amount of QfG stuff. Go here:

      Yeah, I was having trouble yesterday with it.  The boards are having some serious issues with bugs lately.

      Looks like they’re working now though. 🙂

      The one from the ‘QG Web Team’ is really misleading.  To the best of my recollection, the only blackbird in QG1 is the one in the brigand leader’s treasure room.  I think we just told the artist — Jerry Moore — to put some interesting, valuable-looking things in the room.  The magic carpet was the only specified item (other than the room layout).  When Jerry put in the Maltese Falcon, we loved it and wrote it into the rest of the series.

      Jerry’s touch can also be seen in the appearance of the Starship Enterprise — on the shelf of the QG2 magic shop, and I think there was also one in QG1, perhaps in Erasmus’s house or maybe it flies past the carpet in the closing credits.  It was one of his ‘signature’ art touches that he managed to sneak into several Sierra games.

      Corey, it’s a delight to hear from you here! Thanks for posting your recollections on this one, little trivia tidbits like that are always fascinating.

      Very awesome! Of course the blackbird is fully obtainable in QFG2-4 , but not QFG1.
      And Julie- from what I’ve seen of the VU Games forums, they seem to talk about anything save Sierra oldies 🙂
