Sierra Remake Comparison IV: King's Quest

Sierra Remake Comparison IV: King's Quest

Author: Anna & Paul June 18, 2024 Duration: 1:22:25
This week Anna & Paul are comparing the original* AGI King’s Quest with the SCI remake. It's part of our EGA vs VGA Sierra Comparison series except the King's Quest remake is still in EGA so technically it's- look it's all very nerdy and pedantic. Point is, a game was made, then it was remade and we're going to be the vessel in which you vicariously experience playing both through. Mangia!     Wishlist our adventure game!

I'm workin real hard on it, full time, and I think you're gonna love it. BUT, I'm gonna need you to tap on this and then tap several more times, until it's wish listedOMG THANK YOU SO MUCH ThePhantomFellows.com The Phantom Fellows on Steam   *So we both played the 1987 remake of the original 1984 PCjr release so really you could argue we're more comparing the remake to the remake but the original remake- of which the remake was based off of, isn't much of a remake, it's more a ported and patched version of that original boot disk version from the PCjr.  I hope this didn't accidentally make sense.    

Anna and Paul invite you to join their table for The Classic Gamers Guild Podcast, a conversation born from a shared love of adventure games. This isn't a formal review show or a strategy guide, but more like overhearing two friends deep in discussion after a gaming session. Each episode delves into the worlds of point-and-click classics, graphic adventures, and modern titles that carry the spirit of the genre. You'll hear them unpack puzzles, celebrate clever writing, critique frustrating mechanics, and reminisce about the characters and stories that left a mark. The charm of this podcast lies in the hosts' genuine enthusiasm and their personal connection to these games, offering both nostalgic trips for longtime fans and accessible entry points for newcomers curious about these narrative-rich experiences. Tune in for thoughtful, meandering, and often humorous explorations of what makes adventure games uniquely compelling.
