That's right, the long damn wait is over. I smile with joy as I type these words in, thinking if this day was ever to come. The production is over, the testers are done and everything is ready to go. King's Quest III has finally been released. Remember this date, the 19th of June. The day KQ3 was released!



It’s been twenty years since the evil wizard Manannan first appeared on our computer screens, but now, thanks to the hard work and dedication of the team at Infamous Adventures, he’s back!

Kings Quest 3 : To Heir is Human was first released by Sierra On-Line back in 1986. As the second sequel to the hugely popular and successful Kings Quest series, it fast became a fan favourite. Roberta Williams, author of the Kings Quest series, broke new ground in computer games, introducing players to the magic map concept (making travel quicker between screens), timed puzzles and an in-depth spell casting system. All these things are standard fare in today’s games, but were original concepts in 1986.

Unfortunately, due to the advances made in computer technology over the last twenty years, such classic games no longer run on the modern computer. It was with this in mind that Infamous Adventures decided to remake this game, bringing it up to the quality of Kings Quest 5 & 6. Klytos, Executive Producer of IA’s Kings Quest 3 had this to say. “We just love this game and felt that even twenty years later the story was relevant and, more importantly, still fun. We wanted to introduce a new generation of gamers to this classic and show older players who remember the original something new and special. We think we’ve done this, but it’s up to the fans to tell us what they think.”

Boasting all new full VGA backgrounds, enhanced hand-drawn close up cut-scenes, dialog portraits for all the characters, original music by our professional composer, full speech pack (including narrator) and a new point-and-click interface, make Infamous Adventures’ remake of Kings Quest III one of the best remakes on the fan-game market. And the best part is, it’s free!

We would love to give a huge thanks to everyone involved in this project, too many to name but you know who you are. Yet that's not it, it's you the fans who kept us going. We would love to give you the biggest of thanks out of anyone, I mean if we just had tumbleweed as support I don't think we'd have got very far. Anyway, I know you want to play the game. Well, go right ahead.


The voice pack will be released next week, we didn't want you guys to wait any longer. Don't worry, you won't have to redownload the game just for the voice pack. Just simply add the file to the program and boom, you're off!

Again, I'd like to say thanks to everyone who contributed, whether it be the team or the fans, this game is for you. Enjoy.

I have to say, it's really great to see selfless acts like these. I haven't played your version yet, but I remember being 14 or so when the original came out AND NOT HAVING A COMPUTER CAPABLE OF PLAYING IT! (Though I did later on, well after it had been explored by everyone else, play it.) Thanks in advance for all of your hard work (I can't even begin to imagine all the lost time needed for this task).

THANK YOU 
Chris

YAY! It's here!!! thanks so much for releasing this classic game IA. I'm downloading it right now. I'm looking forward to QFI.

Congratulations!

As I said on IMs, I'm happy for our project to give you guys a mirror.

AH! YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW LONG I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS

Well, actually about five months or so. I'm really happy it's been released .

A big hand to all you guys at IA! You're the best!

Glad you're happy! So does the launcher and installer work fine?

Remember, this has to always be in Program Files\IA\King's Quest III to get the launcher to work, so no changing files.

The installer works fine.  It wouldn't let me change directories anyway. I'm playing right now. Wonderful work guys. Manannan showing up all of a sudden still makes me jump lol.  Good choice of music! Lovin it so far.

great job guys.... really appreciate it.........btw how do you make the screen full size?

been waiting to play this game in VGA for AGES! thanks soooo much

not sure what is wrong but mine just freezes on the title screen and does not move though the sound does?

You can change it in settings, change the graphic settings to 320x200 and uncheck run in a window. If the problem persists then do tell and we'll look into it.

maybe its just me.. but i cant seem to walk anywhere once i wake up from sleeping on the bed

that did it thank you
Amazing job great game!

Got it, thanks.

Looking forward to the voice pack, that should be great.

Thanks again.

For those, who want to wait a bit longer and get the full impact, the voice pack will be out very soon. And i've yet to tell a lie.

Thanks for the kinds words.

Thank you everyone for your kind words. We're really proud of this game, and we're glad you enjoy it. I'm locking this thread, too much simple discussion on KQ3 that can be held in other places (this thread is duplicated on our main website as news, so we don't want it too big...)

Any further discussion on this game can be held in the brand spankin' new KQ3 forum in IA's forums. Thanks.
