Description

The fifth chapter of the renowned King's Quest series allows you to reprise your role as Graham, King of Daventry. But this time out your family has been abducted and your kingdom captured by an evil wizard. With the help of a friendly owl, the only witness to the crime, you don your adventurer's cap and set off to defeat the wizard and retrieve your home and family.

The game flaunts beautiful 256-color graphics, mouse-driven point and click interface that replaces the old-fashioned keyboard text parser and the first game ever that introduces voice acting. Don't miss this one, play it!
