What was once old is now reborn. King’s Quest III VGA (remake) was released (for download) yesterday by Infamous Adventures. King’s Quest III: To Heir Is Human is the third installment in the King’s Quest series of computer games that was originally produced by Sierra On-Line back in 1986. Marvel at the 16 color backgrounds and the enhanced close up cut-scenes as you groove to the original music. Re-experience the adventure with a stunning new interface (no more typing) and if you never played it, you’ll probably enjoy it anyway.

I remember borrowing the original game from a friend to play and because of the “copy-protection scheme” in place I needed to borrow the manual too. The game would ask you a random question that could only be answered by the manual. Also, while we’re on the topic of classic adventure gaming, check out my previous post about Thy Dungeonman 3.
