Donald B. Trivette



 

The Official Book of King’s Quest: Daventry and Beyond is the official, authorized guide to King’s Quest, from Sierra On-Line. King’s Quest is America’s most popular series of 3-D animated adventure games. This book will help you puzzle out the answers to some of the most nagging enigmas in this series of action/adventure games.


This book provides an insider’s view of Sierra On-Line, the genius factory that produces King’s Quest. King’s Quest is a series of games made up of equal parts mythology, history, fantasy, and thrilling adventure. This book is full of revealed secrets. Did you know, for example, that special software — hidden code and secret command — was left in some versions of King’s Quest?


You’ll see how the games are designed from the first notes by creator Roberta Williams, through programming, composition, animation, and debugging.


The creation of a successful adventure game is an adventure itself. But that’s only the beginning. The second part of this book is for people who need help completing the quests. Inside you’ll find:

  • Forward by Roberta Williams

  • Maps of Daventry and beyond

  • How the games are put together,

  • Hints, tips, and clues

  • The Sierra On-Line story

  • Ways to add even more fun to King’s Quest.
