Our take on Quest for Glory 1-5
The connected progression comes with a structured, class-based design: replaying the story with another hero type is needed to experience the different gameplay and story variations. The collection also spans older versions, which favors historical breadth over a single uniform presentation.
What is Quest for Glory 1-5?
Quest for Glory 1-5 bundles five Sierra adventure RPGs set across worlds inspired by Germanic, Arabian, Slavic, and Greek traditions.
Players create a hero as a fighter, magic user, or thief, then choose abilities before pursuing quests involving puzzles, monsters, and endangered innocents. Character class affects both play and story. A hero can move from one installment to the next, retaining developed skills, accumulated wealth, and certain magic items. The collection includes both the VGA and original versions of Quest for Glory 1. Its five-part structure follows a light-hearted narrative across distinct settings, with character progression continuing between games.
