Studio: Sierra On-Line Designer(s): Roberta Williams Part of series: Kingʼs Quest Release: May 1985 St. George’s Games: Complete Playthrough Part 1 / Part 2 Basic Overview It is hard to say whether Roberta Williamsʼ vision of the whole Kingʼs Quest franchise was already in place when the first game was being sketched, or if it was only with the huge success of the original game that she started to perceive this as merely the first element in something really big.

It takes at least two to tango.
