 Replying to [comment:4 m-kiewitz]:

 > of course regarding GOG, we could simply contact GOG about that and tell
 them, they will surely fix that issue with the GOG version. I can and will
 check my King's Quest collections, I own several.

 I also have a couple of printed manuals (though not always the
 accompanying box). I've just checked two King's Quest collections and the
 Roberta Williams Anthology manual, and I couldn't find the answers in any
 of them. But I do find those tables a bit hard to read, so it would be
 great if you could double-check.

 You could ask GOG, but from my admittedly limited experience, they will
 tell you that they've informed the Products team but that only have the
 rights to distribute what they were given by the developers. (The only
 exception I've seen was the newspaper from Prisoner of Ice. They were able
 to use the copy I scanned for them.)

 That extends even to broken games. I've been trying several times to get
 them to fix the cracked copy of Maniac Mansion they're selling, or at the
 very least bundle it with a newer version of ScummVM. They did eventually
 fix their broken version of Phantasmagoria 2, after telling me several
 times that they wouldn't. (I still don't know if it's a coincidence that
 they fixed it shortly after I referred to that bug in a different feature
 request.)

 Finally, just to make sure, I've started the game enough times to see at
 least question 22 appear. Imagine the egg on my face if this was something
 that had already been fixed! :-)
