Stream #6 for the Qust For Glory-inspired adventure/rpg Heroine's Quest! Heime has been rescued and I'm going to be (hopefully) doing some other miscellaneous heroics as I attempt to avert Ragnarok.
The fifth stream for the Quest For Glory-inspired adventure/rpg Heroine's Quest is starting now! We made it to Svartalfheim last stream and will continue to explore it tonight.
Trying to get to Svartalfheim in the fourth stream of the adventure/rpg Heroine's Quest: Herald of Ragnarok!
The second stream for the #questforglory -inspired adventure game Heroine's Quest is live now!
Today, I feel like sharing a tribute I made years ago to two great games
"Caribbean Quest: So You Want To Be A Pirate"
A 3-D Graphic RPG by Lori and Corey Gilbert
Yet another WIP version of the Quest for Glory 2 Thief finale, from InterAction vol. 3 #3 (Fall 1990). This time the hexagram is present on the floor, but there are no candles and no Ad Avis.
An early screenshot of the Thief finale in Quest for Glory II, from InterAction magazine vol. 4 #2 (Summer 1991), versus the same scene as it appears in a pre-release demo and the final game.
Notice that the pentagram is missing from the floor, but the brazier from the Fighter ending is present!
Fun fact: the manual for Sierra's Quest for Glory IV includes a screenshot of the character sheet for a Hero named "Dingleberry".
Plus the QFG2 manual has "Gonad the Barbarian". :D
(Also notice that the QFG4 char sheet screenshot still has the separate Paladin points from QFG3!)
ACNH has had me thinking about what my favourite games have been over the years and why. One of my earlier faves was Sierra's Quest for Glory series. So many silly jokes, interesting stories and characters. Really creative and a total joy to play. Fighting wasn't too difficult or stressful for a wimp like me either. And you got to take your character (and all their skills) with you to the next in the series (5 in total).
What games are your faves?

And, this is my drawing based on Quest For Glory (MsDos). It is autumn forest, which you like a lot to have a walk every day. Your friend elf and druid today not come to this place. Because of they are preparing for a big adventure. In a land of autumn. To the autumn country. Just, yesterday, you have a conversation with small red dragon.
