You can download most of the games.
If you pick a catagory to look through (adventure, arcade, puzzle etc), the ones you can download have a small picture of a disk and the ones you can't download say esa.

Wow... this was the first PC game that i REALLY got in to. it took me 6 moths and a day to finally beat. The bridge breaking was pretty lame, but to me (at age 8 or so) was reading the inscriptions on the magic door. I could never get that d****d mermaid to appear. It almost drove me crazy because I could see her on the game box. But to this day, II is probably my favorite KQ game. I still play it every few months. Im gonna give this VGA version a go. Im glad someone finally remade it. Hopefully some people who didnt get into PC games until later will give it a try. I know a lot off ppl are turned off by the old skool 16 color scheme.

No, you can't download the original because it's ESA. As mentiones above, there is a remake which you can download.

If you want the original, try eBay.

Don't these Sierra games count as "sold" instead of "esa-protected" now? I'm sure they're on Amazon somewhere... You'd think they'd give them away by now :nuts:

I highly recommend the AGD Interactive remakes that were mentioned earlier in this thread for KQ1 and KQ2. They did a great job of updating the graphics so that they have more of an early 90s feel. It's also nice to paly the game without typing commands!! :amused:

This was the first text-based adventure game I ever played. Also, this was the only KQ game I ever finished with absolutely NO hints whatsoever! (a big feat for me)

*Happy sigh* I still remember the first time my sister and I were playing and entered the screen of Old Hag Hagitha's cave to see the Batmobile cruising back and forth (Nana-nana-nana-nana Batman!). Good times, good times.:amused:

It's funny you say that...my sister actually likes the typing adventure games better than the point-and-click games :laugh:
