Sierra Softlock Analyzer

It finds the moment a Sierra game stopped being winnable, and blocks it

Sierra Softlock Analyzer

Sierra games, unlike LucasArts ones, let you get stuck: forget the sunscreen in Los Angeles, board the cruise ship, and you die days later on a raft with no way back. This decompiles the game, abstract-interprets the scripts into a graph of guarded room transitions, finds those dead states and compiles guards that stop the crossing while you can still comply. Four games play-tested, nothing about any title hardcoded.
