What do you get when you mix a cowardly hero/janitor, overgrown apes, and an
evil plot to destroy Xenon with life-insurance salesmen? Why, you get Space Quest 2:
Vohaul's Revenge, the second game in the prestigious Space Quest series. It thrusts
you into the position of the space janitor from the first game. Though the player can
choose his or her own name, the default name is Roger Wilco. Apparently, Roger's glory
from saving Xenon in the first game has since faded, and after numerous attempts to
cash in on his glory, he has taken up a posting as a janitor on Xenon Orbital Station
4. A rather boring post for such a hero. Fortunately, things get a little spiced up
for our hero, as he is soon kidnaped by an evil villain named (here's where the
subtitle comes from) Sludge Vohaul. Never met him? If one will recall, the dying
scientist onboard the Arcada in Space Quest 1 was named Slash Vohaul. Sludge, his evil
deformed brother, is rather peeved at Roger for saving the day in Space Quest 1 and
destroying his weapon of mass destruction, the Star Generator. He decides to take
revenge on Roger Wilco and Roger's home planet of Xenon. The brave (brave meaning
cowardly) janitor is sentenced to live out the rest of his life doing hard labor on
the jungle planet of Labion, and Xenon is to meet a far more horrible fate - infestation
by door-to-door life insurance salesmen! Through circumstances beyond his control,
Roger manages to escape. Left alone on a backwater planet, he must find a way to escape
and stop Vohaul's dastardly plan.
