YMMV / Police Quest 3: The Kindred

Go To

  • Accidental Innuendo: If you click the hand icon on the "mindless executive toy" in the psychiatrists office he says "Would you mind not playing with my balls, please" (may also double as a reference to Police Academy Citizens on Patrol)
  • Anti-Climax Boss: When you raid the crack house, you shoot a mook and Michael Bains immediately surrenders. Pat Morales is also unceremoniously killed by an Internal Affairs detective who had never been seen before provided you reported finding cocaine in her locker to them.
  • Diagnosed by the Audience: Brian shows schizophrenia or at least psychosis, as he only wears his underwear and bothers other people in the park by shouting that the Bathonians are coming and everyone needs to be evacuated, while believing he's the chosen one. The game only calls him "deranged" and a "lunatic" without going into specifics.
  • Scrappy Mechanic: Driving in Police Quest III. To accelerate, click in front of the car. To slow down, click at the rear of the car. Each click either increase or decrease speed by 5 mph. Sound easy? At least until you realize you have no idea what's ahead of you. Your car is displayed inside a small square. The rest of the screen is filled with a useless view of you driving, without the windshield. The map only gives your overall position and doesn't tell how close or far you are to a turn. Too often, you'll end up driving off road or missing your street/parking entrance. In the end it's better to just drive at very low speed. Have fun!
