The Kingdom of Daventry is suffering from recent disasters and hardship.

If Sir Graham succeeds in his quest, he will be the new King of Daventry. Join me as I help Sir Graham find the treasures and restore the kingdom to its former glory!

This a blind let's play, meaning that this is the first time I've played ANY version of the first King's Quest game before. I know, I know...

First Video in the Series:



Written and developed by Jonas Kyratzes, this is the prequel (of sorts) to The Book of Living Magic. You are contacted by a talking picture frame from the Lands of Dream, and charged with the task of finding the owner of the house, Old Man Bill. Along the way, you encounter a dinosaur in the garden, a political turtle, a pair of Giant Hamsters of Doom, a spiderpig, mushrooms who say "excellent" a lot, a paranoid rabbit, and many other strange characters. We make potions, decipher encrypted journals, turn a chicken into a duck, and many other strange activities.
