There's just something about these games that grabs me. Every couple of years, I pull out my QfG disks, re-install them, and play all five games straight through. Since I know all the plots inside and out, I can usually get through all five in about a week -- but there's something so satisfying about them. I don't know if someone just coming to them would feel as passionately about them as I do, but they're definitely worth checking out. They are true classics of the genre, and for ten dollars for five games, they're worth seeing if this grabs you. Let's be honest -- I suspect that few of you will be as obsessed as I am, but if the point-and-click adventure genre has any appeal to you, you will enjoy them. The first two games were released in 8-bit graphics (CGA), and the other three were 16-bit (VGA). The first one was re-done as VGA, and you get both versions. There are people who prefer the CGA version; the VGA version made some tiny changes, and some prefer the original. No VGA version was officially made for QfG 2, but some fans made a VGA version you can download for free -- and, yes, you can import and export your character as usual. So I highly recommend this thing. It is, very simply, my favorite game series ever. It is -- they are -- one of the greatest point-and-click adventures ever created. You could argue that the greatest is Monkey Island, or King's Quest, or Day of the Tentacle, but this one gets my vote.
