    Wasn't the "Ask about Loom" badge in Monkey Island, not Day of the Tentacle? ;)

    This one should be easy, I think.

    Not as easy as I thought, it seems.

    Alright, hint time.

    The game is from the mid-90's and doesn't have much text, so I thought the quote would stand out. The Well in question houses an easter egg refering to an (even) older game made by the same company.

    Based on vague memories of a level called Crypt of Decay, I'm going to guess Quake.

    That's the one. Turned out to be far less obvious than I thought. You can see the message by shooting one of the panels in the opening level (where you select difficulty and episodes).

    Nope, but this lets me make a hint post at least.

    Game came out last year, it was a sequel.

    Darn! I wanted that!

    Note: It's the ending cinematic in Rain of Chaos, not Frozen Throne if that counts for anything. It's said by Medive: The last guardian

    I'd honestly forgotten about The Sims... it wasn't the game I was thinking of. The one I mean is similarly a Will Wright game, but an earlier one. But if nobody gets it soon, it's yours.

    Close...

    It might be in that too; I've never played it. But it's a different Maxis game. The specific quote occurs when you edit the map you're about to use. Comes out the speakers.
