@@ThreeEyedPea Unlikely. For the same reason The Silver Lining was discontinued: Fear of being sued by those who own the rights. It's a shame, too. I'd love to see those.
It's such a shame King's Quest is a very much niche franchise because what AGDI did with I-III can easily be considered the best remakes/remasters of a game ever made. They took stories that were relatively simple but still enjoyable, and improved on them even further. I still hope one day that the stars align and we get an announcement Perils of Rosella will be getting a remaster on the same scale. The only King's Quest game as of now not up to par or remastered in the way I-III or 5-7 are.
They actually can't. When AGDI negotiated a fan license with Activision, one of its stipulations was that they could only complete whatever projects they had in development at the time AGDI signed it--in other words, Quest for Glory II and King's Quest III. Chris and Britney have stated that they'd like to do a KQ4 remake, and we all know they'd do a stellar job. They're just legally forbidden from developing or releasing any subsequent remakes. Activision tends to be pretty protective of its properties (how's that for alliteration?), all the more so when it comes to a group as high-profile as AGDI. We may get a KQ4 remake someday, but AGDI won't be behind it.
@@lightbearer972 Almost correct. The license was negotiated with Vivendi. When ActiVision merged/bought out/whatever with Vivendi they were bound to honour the contracts but they made it clear they would not authorize any new projects. Vivendi were not as closed off as I understand it.

It's too bad the makers of this game have no plans to remake King's Quest 4. It would have been a great sequel to this game, continuing the story of the Father, the spell he cast to slow Graham's heart, and the role Pandora's Box could have had to bring about the new age he plotted for. There could have been new additions to the game, not to mention all the multiple endings depending on if time runs out, if Graham lives or dies, whether Rosella was forced into marriage with Edgar, and whether or not she sealed away Pandora's Box. If time ran out, the ending could change depending on whether Lolotte was dead or not. If Graham died, it could chance depending on whether Rosella didn't find the fruit or if she ate it. All in all, it would have made a great game with a lot of replayability like this one!
It is mind-blowing that someone made this. I played this when I was a kid, and I was content with the sprite made out of 18 pixels haha. I never could have imagined someone making this when I was growing up haha, like I said...mind-blowing. The fact they got the original narrator back is even more mind-blowing honestly.
King's Quest V and VI were my VERY first two computer games. Now I want to see the rest. I know they didn't look THIS good when they first came out in the 80s. Amazing! Thx 4 these!
and not just any king, but the one who inadvertently "killed" his "sister" Hagatha, and in the AGDI remake series, pissed off their liege lord (the "Father").
@@oneandonlyjark This, despite the fact that the Father conspired to have Graham killed and Graham foiled him. I will never understand the logic of evil.
Writers of fiction often grossly underestimate the value of gold and silver. (Then again, Daventry has a chest with an endless supply of gold coins, so maybe gold has been massively devalued in the world of King's Quest.)
Is played KQ6 and don't understand how anyone could possibly play the game without a playthrough. The things you have to do are insanely Illogical. "Give a rotten tomato to a talking tree branch and then create a spell of rain for no apparent reason."
KQ6 required alot of "outside the box" thinking. I played it well before I had internet access. Constantly getting stumped and eventually buying a hint book from the game store to help complete it.
@@ultravioletzombie KQ5 was pretty bad too. Imagine trying to figure out you needed to throw moldy cheese into that machine at the end, which was in a mousehole, in the catacombs which could be easily missed, and ALSO required the fishhook which you could also miss over and over again. I originally played the NES version of KQ5 (which introduced me to the series). Thankfully I had a Nintendo power subscription which covered many of the more obtuse puzzles in that game.
I am proud to say I actually finished it back in the 90's with no help whatsoever...but it took me a few years. I actually left it and came back a few years later. It's one of two point and click adventure games I finished without cheating. The other was Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis. No way would I have that kind of patience again.
I remember playing the original when I was a kid. Having Mannanan pop out randomly always gave me a jump. The tension was crazy for the first part of the game.
*THE EVIL wizard's habit* to kidnap babies to be his servants makes no sense since the first like five-seven years they can not help with anything -- on the contrary, they require care. If he insists to kidnap babies then he at least should kidnap and new slave every seven years to force the previous one to care for the newly stolen baby. Besides, in a setting like the game has, there would be no need to steal anyone since poor people were selling off their excess children up to the 19th centuries. BTW, the main lad's voice actor sounds good: romantic adventure prince-like as he should.
@@joshmuz9018 I was about 10 and couldn't speak English at the time. So I had to use a dictionary. Grasping the duality of words, homonyms and metaphors was probably my biggest hurdle as far as I remember (but I could just be filling in the blanks).
Ah, John Bell did the narration for this remake version. Looking forward to that extra L emphasis in "palm" and "calm," and other things. Sheesh. I played the Infamous Adventures conversion in 2008 and watched it again on YT. I think I like this one better.
@Talon Gaudio Apart from being left in the dark and having a time limit you constantly have to keep to you also reach dead ends really easily and is WITH a walkthrough. I think Roberta Williams maybe went too far with this game.
@Talon Gaudio Your brother must be a genius at this game. I mean even if you figure out what you need to do the constant time limits are really exhausting which explains why you hate going along those cliffs so much. Not great when you have a time limit.
P Ferreira he was. And he sucks at other games. He got his savant on. He literally took a stop watch to realize exactly all you needed to do to get the cat cookie made and "hide things" under the bed. Then did everything else before sailing off to daventry.
If you know the game, the idea was that the asshole uncle fucker wanted a slave to do things with which he wouldn't dare soil his hands with. So he had to teach him this shit. The thing was, as he learned with his first slave, that as he grew up, he became adventurous and started to poke into off limits areas of the house or explore Llewdor. When the wizard saw the boy at 18 practicing magic spells, he realized he had made a mistake and not only killed him, but made it so no slave of his would reach manhood, so he kept killing them on their 18th anniversary. He would also severely punish them when they were caught in Llewdor and even made sure they didn't get their hands on anything that they could use for magic.
Yes, there are several differences, compared to the original KQ3 and even the VGA remake. Not limited to these: - The "turning someone to a cat" spell is placed differently here, adding an extra puzzle, involving a bard, a lute, a new spellbook spell called "enhancing musical talent", and new spell ingredients for it (a handful of soil, a handful of sand, and an empty flask). You need to earn the lute by singing a melody, then give the lute to the bard, who'll give you the magic jug. Using the jug, you must fill a small hole in a rock to grab the missing page and turn Manannan to a cat. - The mandrake root powder is not found in the wizard's secret lab, it is inside the spider-web cave insteaad. - You can no longer get lost and die in the desert. - The pirate ship will not disappear. - Wrap-around rules no longer apply. - Deaths were added or altered. - Instead of the eagle dropping a feather randomly, you must feed the eagle with either the mutton chop or a dead fish (new item) to grab a feather. - Medusa is missing from the desert edges, you can find her at a secret desert temple, in a greenish catacomb. - When dealing with Medusa, instead of killing her with the mirror, you can pass her test and give the mirror to her as a gift (you score moar pointz by this). You get the amber stone from her, not the Oracle. - You can now talk to the animalz when you complete the spell, not just passively overhear them. - Gwydion cannot swim in this game at all: if you go water that is too deep, you instantly die. - The porridge respawns at the three bears' house, so you no longer run out of food. - You cannot access the bandits' hideout until you eavesdrop as a fly in the tavern. - You must do some chores on the pirate ship. - You can no longer use the magic map to escape the pirate ship, as it gets taken away. - Instead of climbin' the rockwall at Daventry Peaks, a cave puzzle wuz added with the evil Yeti chasin' you.
@@TheLambdaTeam Like in the Sierra one, you can fly into the hole as a fly and see the rope! Obv sitting on the wall is more entertaining but I was keen on going quick hah
In the upcoming game _Tristania 2_ one of the protagonists can actually see him on the level "The seventy-five minutes speed-run" on a secret location. He'll need to grab the PAMR Sniper Rifle first (from an earlier level) and use its sniper scope from a certain tower to spy on another one. Manannan will be standing inside the tower room. Shooting him will just make him disappear tho.
Update: Manannan will be found on the level "The Blackwater Gospel" instead. Alas, the protagonist with this level has no PAMR Sniper Rifle, she can view Manannan using the Sonic Oscillator instead. He may also appear at the level "A bridge too far?" where he can be observed using the PAMR.
I didn't realize this existed. I gave up in KQ3 in frustration decades ago because I couldn't figure out the right words to make the fucking magic cookie. "make cookie". I don't understand what you are saying. "form cookie". I don't understand what you are saying. "bake cookie". I don't understand what you are saying. Fucking text entry old school games...I loved them, but what rage if you didn't read the programmer's mind for his vocabulary that day. I will definitely be playing this updated version now!
The game itself was broken and didn't accept ANY sentences for the cat spell. Uh,same goes for the invisibility spell. So unless you cheated, there was no way to finish the game. Great programming there, Sierra.
@@TheLambdaTeam what do you mean cheated? I completed this game as a kid back in the 90s. Took me like a year on and off playing it but I was only about 10
@@joshmuz9018 Well, y'probably had a version which had the spells fixed. The one I had didn't. I even tried every possible word which the game accepts, none of them worked. So I had to cheat.
Im pretty sure that used to be an obedient gwydeon who had grown on mannanan, so instead of killing him, he turned him into a cat and kept him as a pet. The cat does say he used to be the wizards favourite, after all.
I apologize. I meant who is The Father in the methodology of King's Quest? Was he a character made up by Sierra or by AGDI? Either way, I've got no complaints. It's a very good character.
Is my question still not clear enough? I know all of that, I'm simply asking if he's a character that Sierra made up or was he a new character that was developed by AGDI?
I apologize if you personally feel I was attacking you. I simply was not. But my question about The Father remains. I'm curious that is all. Good Night/Evening/Day, Good Sir.
That villains kidnapped the heroes as a baby because they are jealous of their rivals as Mother Gothel kidnapped Rapunzel, Mannanan kidnapped Alexander and Kreeg Eszu kidnapped Merope
@@ponygirl4441 In the game, you can find a hidden letter written to Manannan that references somebody known as "The Father", who ordered Alexander's kidnapping. He is the true villain of the King's Quest series and appeared at the end of King's Quest 2. He also put the curse on King Graham, which was shown in this game's intro.
Anyone else think it would have been cool if Rosella, instead of being sacrificed, had simply gone to fight the dragon on her own but had little chance of success without magic?
My goodness. Every kq game is about how a woman's beauty is the most important, and its her fault if she turns "ugly". And if shes not stunning shes worth nothing. How our times have changed.

Update: Manannan will be found on the level "The Blackwater Gospel" instead. Alas, the protagonist with this level has no PAMR Sniper Rifle, she can view Manannan using the Sonic Oscillator instead. He may also appear at the level "A bridge too far?" where he can be observed using the PAMR.
I didn't realize this existed. I gave up in KQ3 in frustration decades ago because I couldn't figure out the right words to make the fucking magic cookie.
"make cookie". I don't understand what you are saying.
"form cookie". I don't understand what you are saying.
"bake cookie". I don't understand what you are saying.
Fucking text entry old school games...I loved them, but what rage if you didn't read the programmer's mind for his vocabulary that day.
I will definitely be playing this updated version now!
This is definitely the best version of KQ3! A lot easier to understand, too.
The game itself was broken and didn't accept ANY sentences for the cat spell. Uh,same goes for the invisibility spell. So unless you cheated, there was no way to finish the game.
Great programming there, Sierra.
@@TheLambdaTeam what do you mean cheated? I completed this game as a kid back in the 90s. Took me like a year on and off playing it but I was only about 10
@@joshmuz9018 Well, y'probably had a version which had the spells fixed. The one I had didn't. I even tried every possible word which the game accepts, none of them worked. So I had to cheat.
@@TheLambdaTeam how did you cheat? Didn't know you could cheat on old Sierra games
If Manannan was allergic to cats, why does he have one then?????
Big plot hole!
Im pretty sure that used to be an obedient gwydeon who had grown on mannanan, so instead of killing him, he turned him into a cat and kept him as a pet.
The cat does say he used to be the wizards favourite, after all.
@@grundgutigertv6170 Could be.
Probably was a previous Gwydion that Manannan decided not to kill. He *did* mention being his favorite.
The guy who cursed my kingdom did so all to find this one little item? BETTER SMASH IT QUICKLY. What was it? WHO CARES.
I'll bet that wizard Rosella mentions was Manannan and he was the one who put the dragon's ass in Daventry.
Nope. It was the villain revealed at the end of King's Quest 2.
It was actually Manannan’s leader, he is called The Father.
Who is the guy in the black cloak after saving Rosella?
He is known as "The Father".
I just watched the whole fucking thing!
28:10 Hank? What happened to Kenny? lol
dude, this is cool
He should have just put the carving knife into the wizards back
Logic in an old point and click game? As if!
It is hinted in the original game that the wizard is much stronger than he appearz. Otherwise it'd be a great idea.
I'll bet the knife wouldn't work on the wizard.
@@sha11235 Probably a protective spell would cause the knife to bounce off and bend.
They didn’t remake the perils of rosella did they?
This seems amazing. :)
The only game I've played in this style is Fable. I didn't get too far, either, I think.
3:30:30 is that Cedric?!
47:42 kids running in the woods loool
So ends the "first"? I don't get it.
Remember the text in the introduction? That's the clue.
You have to play the King's Quest II+ remake for full context on that, but yes the text in the beginning of the intro is the clue.
In the KQ2 remake the Father places 3 curses on Graham
This isn't the one with the two Mordak Easter eggs, is it?
Graham, Valanic and Alexander had brown or dark hair but Rosella is blond
I wonder how anyone would know what to do in these games without a hint book.
That's pretty much....every point and click adventure.
You'd be surprised how much you can work out from playing them - especially if well-written. Does a great deal of good for your logic skills.
@@brookefeely3684 Until you play the first Discworld adventure.
Try, die, reload, try again. Remember we didn't have Internet or smartphones to distract us
I think I was playing them wrong. I started playing in the early nineties but I pretty much always bought the hint book whenever I bought the game.
So who is The Father?
The guy in the black cloak in the after-credits scene.
I apologize. I meant who is The Father in the methodology of King's Quest? Was he a character made up by Sierra or by AGDI? Either way, I've got no complaints. It's a very good character.
@@Ltcolonel97062 He's the one who was commanding both Manannan's actions in the game, and Hagatha's in the previous game.
Is my question still not clear enough? I know all of that, I'm simply asking if he's a character that Sierra made up or was he a new character that was developed by AGDI?
I apologize if you personally feel I was attacking you. I simply was not. But my question about The Father remains. I'm curious that is all. Good Night/Evening/Day, Good Sir.
2:48:16 Captain POPEYE!
Why don't you rush the cookie? Do you enjoy the stress? lol
I played King’s Quest 5.
That villains kidnapped the heroes as a baby because they are jealous of their rivals as Mother Gothel kidnapped Rapunzel, Mannanan kidnapped Alexander and Kreeg Eszu kidnapped Merope
Actually, if you read the letter, you learn that Manannan kidnapped Alexander because The Father ordered it.
@@RpGfreak901 what do you mean by that? (Sorry, I didn't know about the game/franchise until today)
@@ponygirl4441 In the game, you can find a hidden letter written to Manannan that references somebody known as "The Father", who ordered Alexander's kidnapping.
He is the true villain of the King's Quest series and appeared at the end of King's Quest 2. He also put the curse on King Graham, which was shown in this game's intro.
@@RpGfreak901 okay. Thanks for the help. 👍🏻
Rosella should had a six sense that he is her brother without proving it since they were suppose to be twins
Can you remake 8?
11:29
Anyone else think it would have been cool if Rosella, instead of being sacrificed, had simply gone to fight the dragon on her own but had little chance of success without magic?
Homebrew?
ikagura Yes. Did you read the description?
Yeah I did, so that's not official? They could easily remaster the game like they have done
@ikagura It's homebrew but free.
Not "officially made," but officially licensed and authorized.
Juego Clásico
home invader simulator 3
too many adverbs!!
My goodness. Every kq game is about how a woman's beauty is the most important, and its her fault if she turns "ugly". And if shes not stunning shes worth nothing. How our times have changed.
Stealing a literal baby to be your slave/servant seems like a really stupid plan.
Even a toddler would be a poor choice.
