King’s Quest I: Quest for the Crown VGA Overview
King's Quest I: Quest for the Crown VGA is an unofficial fan remake of the 1984 graphic adventure game originally designed by Roberta Williams. The project, developed by AGD Interactive, modernizes the foundational title that pioneered the genre by introducing a graphical, interactive world to PC gaming.
This version is based on Sierra's 1990 release but implements significant technical changes. The original text parser interface was replaced with a point-and-click system similar to later official series entries. Visuals were upgraded to VGA color standards, and the game features full voice acting for all characters, including narration. The protagonist is voiced by an actor who performed the same role in Sierra's official productions.
Several updates were released following the initial 2001 version, with a major revision in 2009 that overhauled graphics, animations, and audio based on community feedback. The core narrative and design adhere closely to the 1990 source, though some characters, like the Gnome and Dwarf, were reinterpreted and later appeared in the group's subsequent remake projects.
