This is a cool site. I would really like to see a section with some old games like KQ1 and Enchanter for dowload. I have Win98 running on an old computer with only a 1.44 floppy drive. I would love to get KQ1 running on it. Will DOS-box run on Win98? Is it the type of program that might crash my whole system? Where can I find a copy of KQ1 that will run on my Win98 machine? Help would be much appreciated!

The Kings Quest series is ESA, so you can't download them.
But there is a remake for parts 1 & 2 which you can find on this site. k:

The grand daddy of all adventure games and a true classic. I may be in the minority but I like these old agi "type in the command and use the keyboard to move" adventure games. Don't get me wrong I do like the newer high graphic "point and click" adventure games. But the old orignial's have a certain feeling to them and they are quite fun even today.

Hint for beanstalk: Anyone who is playing this game now and having trouble climbing the beanstalk (very difficult part). One thing I found useful is to keep Grahams feet on the beanstalk. I found specially near the top where it kind of spirals that if you keep the beanstalk under Grahams feet he won't fall.

Did you ever consider there's a reason for that? Like, that it's illegal to get it for free and you should BUY it or learn live WITHOUT it!

I dont mind paying to get the orginal EGA version... but i still cant find it!

I seem to see the main character portrayed with yellow skin in King's Quests I and II. Why is this so?
