Welcome to the Sierra Wiki

A Wiki for the Sierra Family companies. Sierra On-Line, Dynamix, Impressions Games, Coktel Vision and others. This will also be a merger of the AGI and the SCI Wikis.

The AGI Wiki

A Wiki for the AGI Programming Community. Adventure Game Interpreter or AGI is the game engine created by Sierra On-line. It was succeeded by Sierra's SCI engine. It was used to create such games as King's Quest 1 to III, Space Quest I & II, Police Quest I and Leisure Suit Larry 1. With the availability of such tools as AGI Studio and WinAGI, you can create your own games based on the same engine that Sierra used. This Wiki is a knowledgebase and collection of resources for those working with AGI.

The SCI Wiki

A Wiki for the SCI Programming Community. SCI is the game engine created by Jeff Stephenson for Sierra On-Line, which was used between the years of 1989 to 1997. It superseded Sierra's earlier AGI engine. It was used to create such games as King's Quest IV to VII, Space Quest III to 6, Quest for Glory I to IV and Gabriel Knight I and II. With the availability of such tools as Brian Provinciano's SCI Studio 3 and Phil Fortier's SCI Companion, you can create your own games based on the same engine that Sierra used. This Wiki is a knowledgebase and collection of resources for those working with SCI.

For help with Sierra's games, see The Sierra Help Pages. Additional help can always be found on the SCI Programming Community Message Board.
