Title: Question about King's Quest V and King's Quest Collection
Post by: technox on March 22, 2006, 04:32:46 AM
Hi,
Congratulations for this forum. I have some questions I would like to ask. First, I am looking for King's Quest V. I searched in e-Bay and found some that sell the King's Quest V CD-Rom verion published in 1990 and some selling a version they call 'Enhanced CD-Rom Version". Could you tell me if there is a difference between these two versions? Has anything consenring King's Quest V been published in the year 1995?

I have read somewhere (I think in savetsl-game.com) that Vivendi Universal is planning to publish the King's Quest Collection for Windows XP. Does anyone know anything about that and where I could find some information?

Finally, do you know if there is a way to play King's Quest V and above in Windows XP (maybe using an auxiliary program) ?

Thanks for any replies!

The "Enhanced" version has 256 colors. Sierra also put out a 16-color version. ::)
