quest-for-glory-2 posts

I've covered several games for Freeware Friday, but there's a key genre that I have unintentionally left out. That is what this Freeware Friday is to rectify. The genre in particular is one very near and dear to my heart, and one that I have a love-hate relationship with. I am referring to the adventure genre, which has given us such greats as Myst, Day of the Tentacle, and Sam & Max. The game in particular is a recent freeware remake, but it's definitely worth the time for any fan of the genre. I am talking about the Quest for Glory 2: Trial by Fire remake.

Fans of classic Sierra adventure games have a reason to be happy. ADG Interactive faithfully remade Quest for Glory II: Trial by Fire so that it works on today's computer systems using a point-and-click interface. Best of all, the game is completely free to download and play, so everyone can appreciate AGD Interactive's hard work. This is great news since it looks like Sierra's legacy game series (among other games) will be forever lost with no chance of revival after the Vivendi/Activision merger. It's good to see fans keeping the fire alive.
