- PC GAME FOR SALE
-
- ************* Kings Quest V - CDROM Version **************
-
- This is the CD-ROM version of Kings Quest V by Sierra On-Line.
- The game has absolutely beautiful graphics, and is in my opinion
- on of Sierra's finest story lines to date. It truely is an epic
- adventure taking from a village, through a desert, to a witches
- castle, through snowy mountains, over a sea, and evetually to the
- evil wizard Mordack's island and castle.
-
- The CD-ROM version is basically the same as the original, except for
- the 125+ Megabytes of sound. There is little text, and everything
- is spoken including things like "Are you sure you want to quit?".
-
- You will need a sound board, and of course, a cd-rom player for this game
- It will run on DOS directly or in windows as an Multi-Media program.
- When I played on Windows, peculiarly enough, most of the non-player
- and background animation was disabled. Perhaps I mis-configured something,
- but I just palyed it under DOS.
-
- The game comes on a CD in a standard plastic CD "jewel box", with all
- documentation in the "liner notes". I received no other cards or boxes,
- etc. - perhaps because I ordered it with my cd-rom player.
-
- I will sell the game for $35.
-
- I will pay shipping. It will be mailed inside a box with packing.
