The VGA remake of the first episode from the Quest for Glory series.
The Quest for Glory games feature a great mix of adventure and roleplaying all in one package. So if you find adventure games to be to adventurish and roleplaying games to roleplayerish you might consider this one. ;)
You arrive at the village of Spielburg which has some serious problems to be dealt with. Brigands terrorize the little town and an evil Ogre sorceress is spreading mayhem across the land. They need a hero and, lucky for you, you arrive just in time. Save the Baron’s children, defeat the Ogre sorceress and claim the title ‘Hero of Spielburg’ so everyone will remember you as the greatest hero of all time!
When first starting the game, you can choose whether you want to be a Thief, Fighter or a Mage. Depending on the choice you make, you will have a different gameplay. The main quest will still be the same for all three jobs. But robbing the house of the sheriff as a thief gives great satisfaction.
The overall quality of this game is very high. Great graphics, good storyline, some nifty humor and at least this time you die by your own fault in the battles instead of dying a Sierra death!
Play it, you won’t regret it!
