What ever you do, don't get high and play this...

Amazing game. I have played for over 60 hours and I still don't feel I've scratched the surface. Need that more in games these days, depth.

I have been playing the King's Quest series since I was a little girl, it was the first PC game I ever played and now that I'm 30 I still play them. It's not just nostalgia for me, I play them at least once a year and have yet to get sick of them. The brilliance of the series can get lost on new gamers, they are an absolute work of art and a game that I have yet to find a match to in modern games. They were visually stunning for their time, the story lines were so thought out and engaging and the game play was magnificent. In saying that lets get to the review on this game.

I think the Odd Gentlemen did an amazing job on this, they kept the old way of game play, finding random things in random places that can solve random puzzles on the other side of the map. I loved how at points I was actually confused on what to do next and spent half an hour wondering aimlessly around (Happily, as the artwork is stunning), it wasn't feed to me, I had to figure it out on my own. Something modern day games lack, intelligence and thought to get to the next part of the game. The characters were lovable and memorable (I really felt for poor Acorn and despised Manny), and the actors were fantastic. The game ran smoothly and I only had one small glitch that quickly fixed itself.

I did have one problem with it, the ability to skip dialog, but it seams they have fixed it in chapter 2. Shows the devs are listening to us. I did miss the ability to move my mouse around the map to look at things, but the ability to move your character to the object does seam more logical.

In all I give this a 9/10, as nothing compares to KQ6... ;)

P.S. THANK YOU for not making it like KQ8 that game was terrible.
