you can try the old WebPlayer.
I absolutely love King's Quest V. It's one of the first role playing games I've ever played and I was incredibly excited and surprised to find a text version of it. I wanted to love it, I swear I did. The biggest problem I'm having is that I can't get it to function properly. When I try to load a saved game (resume) it says it's loading and still restarts me at the very beginning. Also, when I attempt to speak to anyone in any shop the entire game freezes. Have no idea what's causing this, but it's very frustrating.
Excellent adaptation! I really enjoyed playing this one and it is very close to the original game. Manannan never showed up though, and I finished with a score of 264/260.
Wow, I loved playing the original game back in the day and this one reminds me how much fun I had playing KQ games. I really enjoyed the game although I had trouble with the desert - thanks for the hints!
I'm not really sure what the other guy is talking about but if your a KQ fan you'll love this game too.

If you are a Kings Quest fan you will LOVE this game. I was completely amazed at how close to the story line it was. Incredible! It's really cool especially if you have already played KQV because now you get to imagine the screens and pretty much play from memory - it's a whole new challange. If you haven't played KQ I still think it's a worthwhile game because the storyline is so captivating. I hope you enjoy the game as much as I did - I give it two thumbs way up :)
Rating: 5 stars
