Lagoon Quest Overview
Lagoon Quest was one of those games you'd find on a Flash portal in the mid-2000s. It had that simple, clean look common to many browser games of the time, built for a quick play session between other tasks. The premise was straightforward, placing you in charge of a dolphin's journey across a body of water.
You control the dolphin directly, navigating through the lake with the arrow keys. Your main goal is to safely reach the other side, but the water is filled with obstacles like mines and hostile creatures that will end your trip if you touch them. The gameplay involves careful maneuvering, learning the patterns of moving hazards, and sometimes waiting for the right moment to dart through a gap. The pacing is deliberate, requiring patience more than speed, and the difficulty comes from the increasingly crowded waterways. It feels like a quiet test of precision, where a single mistake sends you back to the start.
