''Leisure Suit Ali, Leisure Suit Ali's Sister.''

'''[[Sierra Entertainment|Sierra]]''' was a successful adventure game developer of the late '80s and the [[Nineties|'90s]]. Its games have been referenced numerous times in the [[Homestar Runner (body of work)|Homestar Runner]] body of work.

== Appearances ==

* [[The House That Gave Sucky Treats|The House that Gave Sucky Treats]] — [[The King of Town]]'s subject line is "King of Town, Now Sit Down", a reference to "Hut of Brown, Now Sit Down", the phrase used to access a hut in ''[[Quest for Glory I]]''.
* Email [[sisters]] — The numerous images of [[Ali and Ali's Sister|Ali and her sister]] are from the first two games in the [[Leisure Suit Larry]] https://web.archive.org/web/20211001000000im_/http://www.hrwiki.org/w/images/thumb/5/53/Exclamation_Mark.png/12px-Exclamation_Mark.png content warning series.
* Several disks in the [[Floppy Disk Container]] refer to Sierra games:
** [[Arcade Game]] and Email [[caper]] — "[[Manhunter: New York|manhunter new york]]"
** [[Puppet Time]] — "[[King's Quest II]]" and "[[Police Quest II: The Vengeance|Police Quest II]]"
** Email [[pop-up]] — "[[Codename: ICEMAN|code name: iceman]]"
** Email [[technology]] — "[[Gold Rush!|gold rush]]"
** Email [[the paper]] — "[[The Colonel's Bequest|colonel's bequest]]"
** Email [[magic trick]] — "[[Rama (video game)|rama]]"
* [[Thy Dungeonman]] — The fact that you are a "custodial knight" references Roger Wilco's job as a janitor in ''Space Quest''. The box art depicts Thy Dungeonman posing in a similar way to Roger.
* [[Thy Dungeonman II]] — On the box, [[Thy Dungeonman (character)|Thy Dungeonman]] holds a mop the same way Roger Wilco, the protagonist of the ''[[Space Quest]]'' series, does.
* [[Peasant's Quest]] — The game is a parody of ''[[King's Quest I]]'', and it also contains numerous other King's Quest references (for example, [[Rather Dashing]] is based on Gwydion/Alexander, the protagonist of ''[[King's Quest III|III]]'' and ''[[King's Quest VI|VI]]''). See [[Peasant's Quest|King's Quest Series References]] for a complete list. The game over screen is also a reference to ''Space Quest III'', in which it showed a picture of the game's creators trying to console you about dying.
* [[Halloween Potion-ma-jig]] — The whole premise of the cartoon is based on the formulaic combination of ingredients, stirring, and magic words required to perform the spells in ''King's Quest III''. In fact, rose petal essence, one of the ingredients, is mentioned.
* Email [[technology]] — Strong Bad boots up "screen_savior.exe", a reference to an icon in the Cyberspace Office of ''[[Space Quest 6]]''.
* Email [[pop-up]] — When the [[Tandy 400|Tandy]] in the pop-up book says "[[DELETED|Deleted]]" a second time, [[Strong Bad]] says "Police Quest".
* Email [[your funeral]] (DVD commentary) — After Strong Bad sings the funeral march, [[The Brothers Chaps]] sing the punchline tune. They then wonder if a King's Quest or Space Quest game did the same thing; indeed, it is the death jingle in ''King's Quest I'' and ''II''.
* [[The Limozeen Advantage]] — The hamburger restaurant resembles Monolith Burger from ''Space Quest''.
* [[SBCG4AP Dev Blog]] entry for 10 Jun 2008 — Strong Bad is listed as playing ''[[Floppy Disk Container|Gold Rush]]'' and mentions he's lost the manual.
* [[Crystal Fortress]] — A large, purple Strong Bad appears from behind a mountain the same way Iblis does in the intro to ''[[Quest for Glory II]]''.
* [[Really Cool Boat]] — Strong Bad draws "a pair of King Grahams" from ''King's Quest'' for the boat's towers.
* [[WarioWare D.I.Y. Compilation]] — The way an eagle collects Rather Dashing is similar to how one collects Graham in ''King's Quest V''.
* [[Halloween Hijinks]] — [[The Poopsmith]] dresses as one of the Two Guys from Andromeda, creators of the ''Space Quest'' series.
* [[Disk 4 of 12 - World Games]] — Strong Bad compares the game's [[Epyx]] flag to the cloud that appears when King Graham gets mauled by a wolf.
