Pressured on the subject of marriage by her mother, the queen, the princess hops into a pond and discovers a world inhabited by trolls, a fiendish sorceress, and a handsome, though hooded, prince. The lead character is a yellow-haired valley girl of a princess who introduces herself by singing a little ditty saccharine enough to make Barney the dinosaur purse his purple lips. If you’re old enough to enjoy the game - at times very entertaining - you’ll probably smirk at the frilly plot, which reminded me of vintage Smurfs. Yet the game’s unhurried pace, requiring repented visits to locations to discover clues and acquire useful objects, is better suited to young adults. Its colorful animation seems designed to reform those little girls who, despite an enlightened upbringing, dismay their parents by yearning for Barbie dolls. There is no save mechanic - you simply start over from before you died, encouraging you to explore every corner of the world. While appealing to kids, some of the puzzles are deeply treacherous, some of the dialogue is certain to go above a child's head, and death lies in wait around every corner.

Split into six acts, follow the adventures of Queen Valanice and Prince Rosella as they try to reunite, and stop the world from being destroyed by the evil fairy Malitia. What is King's Quest VII: The Princeless Bride?Ī point-and-click fantasy adventure game from Sierra.
