King's Quest III: To Heir Is Human

The third part of the legendary King's Quest adventure game, set in the magical kingdom of Daventry and the surrounding lands. The player starts the game not as a king or his loyal servant, but as a slave named Gwydion, trapped in the dungeons of an evil sorcerer. In time, it turns out that the sorcerer also imprisoned our once missing sister. As you can easily guess, our task is to save the sister and annihilate the enemy and their helpers.

King's Quest 3: To Heir is Human, is the first game in the series where we use magic. There is no lack of this one, because by chance we find ancient books used by our oppressor. Having learned the spells, we have a chance to defeat the sorcerer with his own weapons.

In general, the game mechanics remained the same as in the previous parts of the cycle. Again, we control our character using the directional keys, and we insert the commands on the keyboard. During the game we explore the most dark corners of the sorcerer's castle and the surrounding area.

The game again uses a 16-color engine, which provides a refined and clear graphics suitable for the adventure convention.
