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.

OkamiShelli, I would recommend the following website: http://www.lemonamiga.com/games/docs.php?id=944
I found it really helpful. It has some good hints to help out, and some walkthrough parts. This game is almost exactly like the original Sierra King's Quest V, so any walkthroughs and hints for the Sierra version are extremely helpful for this adaptation.

I'm stuck, I have the wand, the pie, and an old fish.

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.

I have gotten stuck in the Inn basement. I used the hammer on the lock, but I still can't open the door. The lock isn't there anymore, but if I look at the door it says "there is a door with a large lock on it". Any suggestions?

Loved King's Quest, which I used to own, and I love this. Amazingly close. Bravo.

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.

Michael the gamer sure taught me a lesson. Apparently, he does not appreciate criticism of his grammar.

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
