Quest for Glory II - Refurb
 
#9
*jaw drops*

Sierra's Quest for Glory, one of the older 'adventure games' (think Zork with graphics), was _the_ compelling reason for a lot of us to buy EGA
compliant hardware back in 'the day'.

related to, by gameplay, creator, and position on archival shelves, the King's Quest series. Again, think Zork, with Graphics.

vs

as for QfG 2 - it's the same old story, boy meets girl, under a silvery moon.. which then explodes for no apparent reason.

Sierra's brand of quirky humor are one of the telling points for the QfG and King's Quest series, as evidenced below by the titles for the King's
Quest games.

* King's Quest II: Romancing the Throne

* King's Quest III: To Heir Is Human

* King's Quest IV: The Perils of Rosella

* King's Quest V: Absence Makes the Heart Go Yonder!

* King's Quest VI: Heir Today, Gone Tomorrow

* King's Quest: Quest for the Crown

*nostalgic sigh*

I'll look into availability of these over the next few days - I think the whole shmear for either or both series should be easily available. And they are
VERY worth playing.
