NOT SUPPORTED

I personally loved this game.. Have been trying to find it for years for a replay. I give it a one star because when I FINALLY found it on GOG it just so happens it isn't supported on Win8!

For absolute diehard nostalgia fans only

Both KQ 7 & 8 came out during a dark time in PC gaming and an even darker one for Sierra. When CD-ROMs came out, Sierra went through a "look, we're Disney!" phase with attempts at Don Bluth style cartoon animation, and the animation quality was to Disney cartoons what early FMV quality was to actual Hollywood movies. They pumped out KQ 7 and Space Quest 6 in this style, and both were the worst of the franchise. Embarrassingly shoddy animation that has aged as well as early FMV and 3D, cringe worthy voice acting back when company employees did all the voices. Then came KQ 8 to make fans nostalgic for 7. This came out during the dark days of early 3D as it was replacing 2D sprites yet looked vastly uglier, lifeless, and charmless. Sierra pumped out a couple of these that all earned "worst of franchise" status: KQ8, Gabriel Knight 3, and Quest for Glory 5. In addition to the atrocious graphics, KQ 8 also made the inexplicable decision to stop being a puzzle based adventure game and become an ugly clunky first person RPG which made about as much sense as Tetris becoming an RTS. Check out ANY other Sierra adventure before ever daring to dwell here.

Great, but not as great...

While KQ7 got pretty lame reviews, I don't think it deserved them. I loved KQ7 almost as much as I liked KQ6 (still the greatest adventure game of all time). Yes, the graphics are cartoon-y, but the game is a King's Quest game all the same. You still get hilarious "death" messages, the puzzles are challenging, and the character dynamics are awesome. Overall, wonderful game. KQ8 is a beast of a different color, however. If you're hoping to find Alexander, Graham, Valanice, or Rosella, you're sorely disappointed. While it's not a terrible game in and of itself, it's not altogether a King's Quest game, which makes it somewhat disappointing to die-hard fans of the series (like me). However, as a lover of RPG's, I have to say, it's an okay game on its own. It won't leave you dying for more, but it'll leave you satisfied for playing. On another note, if you're into this series, the (unofficial) KQ9 is up, and it's a much better ending than KQ8 was. It's called "The Silver Lining."
