I need help playing my King's Quest on XP [Posted on 2005-02-28]
I got the King's Quest Colection Series a while back, only paid 30 bucks for it so I see that I am lucky :-), anyways, I LOVE these games but I just got a new computer with XP and all that and now I can't play the games!! I read in a review below that it is possible to play them, I just have to turn my compatibilty back to Windows 95 but I looked and can not find that anywhere! Someone PLEASE help me with this because I absolutely LOVE these games and want to play them now... Please Email me at kel192004@yahoo.com with any information. Thanks everyone!

you can get it cheaper [Posted on 2005-03-29]
you can buy kings quest 15th anniverary with games 1 through 6 much cheaper and then purchase kings quest 7 separately much cheaper

You can't get this anywhere else! [Posted on 2005-11-04]
Someone said below "you can buy kings quest 15th anniverary with games 1 through 6 much cheaper and then purchase kings quest 7 separately much cheaper"

This may be true BUT, this collection has more than 7 games. There are also 3 full additional non-king's quest game and a handful of bonus games. Buying 1-6 and then buying 7 seperately will make you miss out on the other games!

This collection is fun for all ages - either for nostalgic reasons, or just b/c you like adventure! Highly recommended!

Patience is Everything [Posted on 2006-06-07]
Vivendi Universal who acquired Sierra On-Line and all intellectual properties therein some time ago has announced that there will be Windows XP compatible compilations of the "King's Quest", "Space Quest", and "Police Quest" game series available during the holiday season of 06'. Yes, it is true that these compilations were promised in March of this year, but the most recent press release I have read indicates they are on course. After close inspection of the packaging of this particular product, I believe it would be a try at your own risk proposition to get this to work on a modern PC. Trust me, I still have my Space Quest and King's quest disks from when I purchased them new in the eighties but they will not work on a modern PC due the DirectX usage of modern PC's. These games require far less computing power and thus are not recognized without a fully tweaked DosBox emulator. Hope this helps and happy shopping.

The Cost [Posted on 2007-04-03]
i got this by chance when a video game store was going out of sale and paid only 9.99 for it which i see now is a steal i was thinking of getting the compilation but since it has some bad reviews im just gonna keep the ones i have although it does have some problems with windows and DOS going back and forth but i really just got it for KQ7 my faaaaaaaaaave out of all of them...i miss those games..i really do...
