Seriously, even for 1980, even for Sierra, Mystery House is garbage. It sold only on pretty graphics.

I've played most of sierra's old "Hi-Res" games back in the day, I will confirm they were lovely infocom ripoffs that only sold due to the graphics. Hard to believe IBM paid them to make king's quest...

And Mystery House was written by Roberta Williams, who did most of the King's Quest games up until the end.

Honestly I like the atmosphere of the ending there. After all, isn't the staff of the island just impeccably honest, in their own way?
