my mom bought this for my sister and I and we played it for years. It was one of our favorite pc games. Ive still got it but no pc to play it on. Ive tried everything to get it running locally. Tried to get it on MiSTer, even considered buying or building a retro pc. Be nice if i could just play it on a modern one though.
This is an amazing gem of a game. Really hiding the learning in a fun and interesting way. Cant remember how many hours I spent in front of the screen with this game. But the best part is that everyone in the family enjoyed the game as well. Even my grandparents could enjoy sitting down with me as a child playing this "computer game" as they would say.

So many different types of puzzles that were all so fun. For a "kid" game, the different difficulties you could choose could become really hard, even for an adult!

One of the games that came with our first family PC, me and my brothers spent countless hours figuring out the puzzles despite hardly knowing any English at the time. I haven't played it in a long time since these days running the game is very difficult, but I'd love to see an updated version compatible with modern systems on GOG one day to relive the nostalgia.

I used to spend hours playing this game, it was one of the first games I played that came in CD ROM, and first game I played with voices! Basically taught me how to speak English. The puzzles were very creative, never played anything like it since. It's impossible to run this game on modern machines, believe me, I tried so much!
I just want to say that this is an educational/entertainment game, better known as an edutaiment game but it is so well executed that you don't realize you're learning because you are having SO much fun. I played this on my 486 SX25 for hours. My parents had to call me to supper several times because I'd yell back, "One more minute!" like 10 times! The voice acting in this game is superb. This game is amazing!

This game was so amazing and instilled in me a love of puzzles that I still have to this day. Almost any game I download on my phone is similar to one of the puzzles. I remember playing this game and challenging my brother to see who could complete more. I was hoping to be able to download it for my daughter to play but it's pretty difficult to find. It would be amazing if this was on GOG!

Quest for Glory V: Dragon Fire
Quest for Glory V: Dragon FireAfter having survived the dangers he encountered on his previous journey, the hero travels with the wizard Erasmus to a Greece-like country called Silmaria. Its king was recently murdered, and, according to the land's traditions, the crown will be given to the one who passes a contest known as the Rites of Rulership. The hero enters the contest, aided by Erasmus, Rakeesh, and other old friends. However, as the competition progresses, contestants are being systematically killed by an unknown assassin. All the victims are murdered near the Dragon Pillars, which keep the Dragon of Silmaria in captivity. The hero must investigate the crimes and save Silmaria from a grave danger. Dragon Fire is the final game in the Quest for Glory series. Like the previous games in the series, Dragon Fire is a hybrid between puzzle-solving adventure and role-playing game. The player talks to the world's inhabitants, gathering clues and items necessary to acquire in order to complete the quests and advance the story. Unlike all its predecessors, Dragon Fire has no separate battle screens; the action-based battles take place on the exploration screen, utilizing a simple point-and-click interface, similarly to Diablo. The game has heavier weapon and armor management than other Quest for Glory games, strengthening the RPG angle. Many quests are optional or can be completed in different ways. The hero can also marry one of the several major female characters in the game, provided the player does the right thing to impress the girl.
