I don't think I can overstate it: What a truly beautiful game. I'm hard-pressed to think of the last time a game moved me to the brink of tears.

Because I've played this game, I may go the rest of my life second-guessing every choice I've ever made, even if the lesson taught is that one must remain resolute in said choices, accepting what's done is done.

Even if it is a little derivative of the old choose-your-own-adventure novels, and the characters often say bizarre things (they are mostly teenagers, after all), it is a great adventure game with great visuals and a compelling plot with both a shocking twist and an emotional climax.

Cherish the time you have with those close to you -- in reality you don't get to rewind.

This isn't the King's Quest you grew up with. However that's not to say it's bad. On the contrary, we have a very good game on our hands here!

The visuals are amazing. In a few spots, absolutely breathtaking. The music and voices are great. The atmosphere is lighthearted and amusing--I have already laughed out loud a few times.

The gameplay style (so far) is adventure at its purest. I haven't exactly been stumped by anything yet, but also haven't overcome any obstacles with tremendous ease.

I don't want to say much more, because I think players should discover the charm of this game for themselves. Players of the previous games will greatly appreciate what's been put together here. Newcomers will find it approachable and fun as well. I can't wait to keep playing.

This is a great return to adventure gaming, and certainly worthy of the name Sierra.
