Eco Quest 1

Note before hand

For all those mistaken people who think that Eco Quest is for the environmentally minded, then let me tell you it's not. Who the heck do you think is actually going to read the documentation that comes with the game?(More so if it was pirated.)Who bothers how to recycle? So I just assume that you've got the game, are stuck, and you need help from the grand master of such things, who is, obviously, moi. Then again, if you're a caring person who, unlike me, wants to do your part to save the earth from global warming and ultra violet rays and smog and pollutants, then go ahead. I'm not stopping you, am I?
