has anyone else played this amazing game app? incredible! i am in love with it! i'm 40% through and so reluctant to continue because eventually the experience will be over and i will be so sad! with its emphasis on interesting puzzles and literary narrative rather than on manual dexterity, handeye coordination, and speed of response, (yet enough of that to just be interesting,) this is the perfect game for me.

it brings back to me a whole range of memories of a childhood fascinated with the classic adventure game - king's quest, laura bow, gabriel knight, simon the sorcerer, etc - yet actually manages to escape the mire of pure nostalgia and to take the genre somewhere new, even to reinvent it. sure it's a little bit into itself, but it's so rad it can afford to be. i want more of this sort of game! more more more!

i even bought one of the songs from the soundtrack. me buying music from a videogame soundtrack?! i love how the music flirts with being cheesy and inspirational yet retains its dignity.

best $6 i ever spent. no exaggeration.
 
I loved a game called King's Bounty as a kid, not sure if it's the same/similar to the one you named as 'King's Quest'.

I used to have it on floppy disk, if you can imagine.

I'd spend hours exploring horribly pixelated continents, trying to gather enough ghosts and trolls for my army.

Fantastic game. :)
 
Where do you buy it at?
