Doesn't run on Win7

Both games as far as I've got so far, don't run properly on Win7. KQ7 - Compatibility - Has terrible graphics and you can't even make out what the hell you're even looking at. Haven't found a way to run on Win7 unless you like using dosbox and having a tiny ass screen to look at. Game - Game is their second fav in my book. Fun story and pretty clean graphics for being 2D. KQ8 - Compatibility - Runs like shit and crashes like crazy on Win7. Game - My favorite game out of all of the KQ games. People who complain about the graphics on this game also forget when this game came out and the current technology was at.

The stuff dreams are made of

Kings Quest 7: Five Stars! Kings Quest 8: No Take a look at the screenshots and you'll notice two sets. One involves a dark murky atmosphere similar to that of QUAKE or Heretic, the other sports gorgeous lucid backgrounds and hand-painted frames. Kings Quest 7 takes you on a magical journey you will never forget, quite literally, some of the scenes, music, sounds, and lovely voices are what make this game so beautiful. They should have stopped Kings Quest here. Kings Quest 8, just no. This is Quakes Quest, not Kings Quest, do not touch.

King's Quest VII Alone Is Worth $10

Let's get King's Quest VIII out of the way first thing. It is generic, and coming after King's Quest VI and VII that is absolutely unforgivable. Everything is just okay. The graphics aren't the worst, the world design isn't the worst, the story isn't the worst. Nor is it among the best. It falls squarely somewhere in the middle. To understand why this is such a disappointment, we need look no further than King's Quest VII. Imaginative. Beautifully designed. Colorful. Funny. Fun. Amazing. King's Quest VII brought you the story of a rebellious girl and her mother, trapped in strange new worlds as they try to find each other and get back home. This game is the reason why point-and-click adventures were such a good time back in their day. If you have $10 to spare, want a game that, while will not stand up to the graphics of today's AAA titles, is still fun, long enough that you still feel like you're getting your moneys worth, and features strong female protagonists, this game is well worth your time, and very good value for money.

Loved KQ7, hated KQ8.

KQ7 was my first CD game And I truely loved it. Two memorable female charecters, a princess turned into a Troll and buetiful Walt Disney like sceneries. I thought it was one of the best I played. On the other hand, KQ8 was ugly, I forgot the story entirely, and my biggest disapoinment was the action parts. I was dismayed at the (then) new tendency to introduce fight in an advanture game, and I thought I could do without that game. I would like to have KQ7 again, but I will not be willing to pay again for KQ8. 5 point to KQ7, 1 points (just) for KQ8. so the pacage is 3.

Worth every nickel.

I'm a little tired of reading reviews dissing King's Quest 8. I'll admit, the control scheme could be a lot better, but I've played games that are worse; you may have heard of them: Resident Evil 1-3, Silent Hill 1, Grand Theft Auto 1 and so on. Considering that KQ 8 was released in 1998, I'd say it's right on par with those other games control-wise. Sure, there are parts that are a pain because they require you to navigate tight spaces or jump over obstacles that kill you, but so do most survival horror games from that period. And that's what KQ 8 is: a survival horror game, with health potions, merchants, and everything else we love about Resident Evil. Other reviewers are correct in their statements that it isn't a King's Quest game like the first 7. There are no fairy tale references and no comedy, which distinguished it's predecessors, especially KQ 7, which is a playable Disney movie. The typical point and click Sierra adventure game was worn out by 1998. Give them a break.
