--- How about --- Make a *true* KQ (9) game with Alexander and Cassima in the lead roles?!
My ex knows/used to know nearly everyone at Sierra who worked on the series. He collects Sierra games and had nearly a whole shelf devoted to KQ stuff.
I loved playing Kings Quest- especially 4 and 5 (was that the one with the unicorn? I loved that one...) I remember getting stuck on the puzzles and my sister and I would be stuck sometimes for WEEKS (not like now when you get stuck on a game and the internet is there for you).I do remember getting very stressed out about some of the trickier parts- and the poor animation (great for its time but still leaving much to be desired) gave me dreams that I was semi-blind, hahaI've been playing the remade KQ 1 - 3- they look great! The real test will be when KQ4 starts- Hope they finish soon!
Skeen please tell me when KQ4 is coming out!!
Nah, it's cool. I remember playing KQ7 with Aadra when we were in middle school and being terrified of the Boogeyman. Oh! And the sense gnomes in KQ6.On a funny note, I played the KQ6 version with the voices, and I remember one scene where Alexander is trying to get a seaman to speak to him. Clicking somewhere in the scene will prompt the narrator to say, "Alexander refuses to leave until he knows how Cassima feels about him," or something. Well, technology being what it was back in the day, the voices weren't exactly crystal clear, and I was convinced the narrator was saying, "Alexander refuses to leave until he knows how the seaman feels about him." And I was like, "WTF does he care what some old sailor thinks about him?!" It wasn't until YEARS later I realized the girl's name was Cassima and that's what the narrator was saying. Wow.
So, it's totally crazy that I never played those games when I was a kid. I played all kinds of computer games back then, especially games made by Sierra, but somehow I missed their most popular franchise of the time!
Sweet Stuff, I'm 99% sure "Girl in the Tower" played at my wedding.
My Loot. I had two copies of 7 and one would glitch. I think my favorite part of 6 was the afterlife? underworld? and the scariest thing ever was the Minotaur. I loved 7. 5 I played with my dad the first time and oh man that was fun. We'd draw out maps for the desert and ocean and the labyrinth.1 - 4 were text commands and I had a terrible time with those because I was awful at spelling and it wanted specific phrasing. The best part was in #2 where you have to give the caged bird to the shop keeper and my brother and I just couldn't get it right and ended up typing 'give woman the bird' and laughing like the little kids we were. visitors can't see pics , please register or login
The King's Quest games are some of my favorites, and will always hold a special place in my heart. I just wish Phoenix would get the last part of The Silver Lining out already. xDI actually spent a lot of time on the Silver Lining forums back in the day and I remember all the things they'd originally wanted to do with it back when they called it KQ9 (before getting a few C&Ds from various companies that owned the rights at different points) I have only seen a few minutes of the 'new' one and though it's quite different from the old point and click adventures what I saw of it looked fun.Anyone here ever read any of the novels? My little bro has all three of them I believe but I could be wrong on that. They are a lot of fun too and fit within the world that the games created quite well.
