What players say
One of those games that stays with you forever <3 Great reimagination of the old classic. Only minus is that you can not get the prologue DLC on Steam. 10/10 regardless
I am Sophie. I am 10 years old. I think this game is awesome. I have been playing the game with my dad the game is amazing! I am Sophie's Dad. I agree. I used to play Kings Quest 5 when I was about her age. This brings back a lot of great memories.
This is a beautifully written story full of puzzles to play. A regular man must become what the kingdom needs him to be while trying to find his way through life's adventures. Some of the puzzles can be difficult but the story makes it worth playing through. I laughed and I cried. I am working on my 2nd playthrough to receive 100% in my achievements but I would play it again either way. The first Chapter is free so...
