Apparently she's helping design a facebook game called "Odd Manor (actually she's Game Consultant)".

Not KQ but maybe, it's a start to get her back into the industry?
Well, ya, King's Quest is on Earth. Daventry is very old city from a long time ago. It's in ruins now and people aren't quite sure exactly where it used to be. There are some archaeologists searching through the ruins, they think they know its Daventry. But its somewhere on Earth."-Roberta Williams http://kingsquest.wikia.com/wiki/File:Daventryisearth.ogg

Probably not. Odd Manor is a facebook game that the Williams' son developed--I doubt they'd have refused him their help and expertise, as well as some PR from using their names.

Yeah it's their son's project, not Ken and Roberta's.  I think it's still relatively new as the gameplay seems a bit lacking, but yeah they probably give him feedback and I know they've been advertising the game on their blogs and stuff.
