- Post a comment Today, the DRM-free digital delivery site added the first
three games in the famed Kings Quest series in one package to its
growing library of PC classics. The bungle includes King's Quest: Quest
for the Crown, King's Quest II: Romancing the Throne and King's Quest
III: To Heir is Human in a bundle for $9.99:
King's Quest is a classic series of adventure games designed by the
famous Roberta Williams, co-founder of Sierra. The first three parts of
the series, included in today's release, were made using an ancient (by
today's standards) engine called the Adventure Game Interpreter, or
AGI. Now, the graphics may be dated and the controls may be clunky, but
you can't rightly call yourself a true adventure game fan if you
haven't played the really oldschool titles as well. Most importantly,
though, playing a part in each title's story more than makes up for
using arrows and text input, rather than casually clicking away and
hunting for pixels. If you haven't already then be sure to check the
first three parts of "From Monochrome to Monarchy" KQ history by David
Craddock.
