These games got me started on adventure games way back when. KQ 6 is highly recommended for an amazing story, beautiful graphics for its time, and delightful voiceovers.

Kings quest collection is very good. It has all of the kings quest games except Kings Quest 8. It also includes other neat games from the same creators. The collection is pretty challenging and will keep you up late in the night for months. Very fun!

Weeee

This game in the earlier part of the series may not have good graphics, but I think that 1-4 were much harder than 5-7, this also is partially because of bad graphics but the riddles were very hard to figure out. Don't get me wrong though, I really like the later ones(though I haven't played 8) they all as a group took me about a year or two.

This Game Rock! I've only played games 5&6, BUT from that I can't wait for the next game. You have to get this is awsome. The grafics might be a little cheesey but that's okay~

And on KQ 6 DEATH THE LORD OF THE RELM OF THE DEAD IS AWASOME AWASOME. Trust me. I woudn't have written this if it was a totaly boring serria game. See Ya:-)

I first played Kings Quest at a friends house and I became so hooked on it that every time I went there, she would have turned on the computer and King's Quest Seven would be starting up. It was my absolute favorite! I don't see why some people don't like it. Five and six are great! I like 1-4 also, but usually when I play them on my machine, they don't really work. It's actually kinda scary. Like in seven, when she goes into OOga Booga land and there's the woman with no face ... But my favorite place in seven has to be Etheria! It is just toooo coool! And I love the duke's palace with the upside down stair ways!

Was probably good in it's time.

I have enjoyed the Kings Quest series very much, but I didn't get started until Kings 5. I got this set, but the gameplay and graphics, though a head of their time in their day, was real tough to play in this current day and age. While these all have great stories, graphically and challenging wise, Kings Quest 6 & 7 are the only 2 that are really playable now. Kings 7 is graphically very good and the story and gameplay is pretty cool. The only thing missing from this set is The Mask Of Eternity which is actually Kings Quest 8. Graphically, it's a stellar upgrade over these and the gameplay is faster paced with alot less puzzles to solve. Roberta Williams was definitley ahead of her time and I hope she continues to create these Kings Quest games(go to gamespot.com and look for an article on Roberta Williams. It was an excellent story).

An uneven collection of a (mostly) influential game series.

The King's Quest series has been long regarded as one of the most influential adventure series in computer gaming history. That may or may not be true--you can decide for yourself if you purchase this package. Unfortunately, only a couple of the games are worthy of being influential--the middle games in the series are the most fully realized and most satisfying games. Most of the others are hollow playing experiences, offering little besides scintillating graphics and usually interesting sound and music. Even the bonus games are, for the most part, mediocre offerings at best. If you are a long-time fan and would like to own the games, it's definitely worth it. But you will most likely otherwise not be swayed to think King's Quest is the greatest game series ever.
