Description
Are you feeling adventurous, Hero? The world of Gloriana, with all its wonderful diversity, awaits you. In this pack of five classic Sierra adventure games you will create your character (a warrior, thief, or magic user) and set out on a grand journey for fortune and fame! You will solve quests and puzzles, fight monsters, and save innocents.

In the Quest for Glory pack, which contains all five parts of the classic action RPG games by Sierra, you create your own character, choose his class and abilities and then set out on your grand voyage. Quest for Glory games are universally acclaimed as one of the best adventure games ever developed. After completing a part, you can import your character into the next one, keeping your skills and some special rewards you've hoarded, like magic items.

The story is another of the Quest for Glory series' strong points. It's very solid and immersive, with a light-hearted and humorous narrative that will keep you glued to the screen throughout each of the five installments.
  • Includes both: VGA and original version of Quest for Glory 1.
  • Venture across five huge worlds, each based on a different culture and mythology, from Germanic fairy tales, through Arabian and Slavic folklore, right down to Greek mythology.
  • Three starting character classes to choose from (fighter, magic user, and thief). This decision not only modifies the gameplay but also the story, providing for excellent replayability.
  • You can transfer your character from one game to the next. The skills and wealth you worked for so hard are not lost!

A great series

This is a great series of games, though it's also very mixed. It's an adventure game with combat elements and a fair amount of humor, where you can take your character from the first game and import it into any later game (so you can do 1 to 2 to 3, etc., but it also allows you to go 1 to 5, or 2 to 5. You can import from any lower number to any higher one). Most of the music is pretty great too. The first Quest for Glory is all text-based. The text-based version I'd say is better, but somewhat counter-intuitive if you've never done it before. The VGA version is easier for new players (and the easiest class is a figher where you add points to magic and other skills you don't have). The second game is also text based. There's a VGA version of #2 that you can find free online from AGD interactive studios. It's very well done, free, and fully compatible. It's also much more polished than the VGA versions of 1 or 3. Quest for Glory 3 was the first VGA version originally produced, and so it's the clunkiest. There's some nice elements, but if you can't get through it there's no harm in exporting your character directly from QFG2 to QFG4. QFG4 is great. It was pretty buggy originally, but GoG includes all the patches which helps I think it includes a fan patch as well, though there may be more online. Save often. QFG5 is a completely different style of game. It's also the only one that's 3d. In many ways it's my favorite, but it's also a very different feel from 1-4. If you buy the series and can't get into the earlier ones I'd try going directly to 5 and seeing if that's more your style. All in all this is a great deal for not very much money.

nostalgia

takes me right back to 1995. I played these games non-stop back then, and I still enjoy dusting them off and reliving my childhood. Thanks, GOG.com!

Great Series of Games

These games were always favorites of mine growing up. I always liked the option of playing 3 different characters and how each players abilities change how you have to complete the game. The 3rd and 4th were the best in my opinion. The revised one was good, but the second one is hard to play having to type in your commands and all (never liked that). The thing I probably like best about them is the nonstop sarcasm and (intentionally) corny punchlines throughout the game, especially when it seems to be at the wrong moment (when you die they post a cheesy joke about it...hilarious). If you like a good action/puzzle game (and a good laugh) give these games a try!

Goodness!

Qfg 1, 2, and 4 are the best in my opinion. Oh, not of the collection, I mean best rpg/adventure games of all time. I learned how to type on the first one so I definitely have the nostalgia factor, but these games are just great. Give them a try!
