I was realy looking forward o this title. Its to bad it got shut down. I think it was shut down because of all the attention it was getting. Sending letter to the copywrite holders will only confirm the amount of interest in this franchise. Adventure games seem to be making a comback (siberia, still life), and hopefully we can put on grahams adventure cap one more time.

Man, I loved playing Space quest, Kings quest, and police Quest when I was a kid. Those were some of the first PC games I played (besides wolfenstein). I'd love to get back into the Quest series again. I sent my email already.

They got shut down for calling it King's Quest and portraying it as a sequel. You don't see VU shutting down Peasant's Quest (http://www.homestarrunner.com/disk4of12.html) do you?

I don't see why they can't just change the name and remove any King's Quest-related content and release it like that. It's not like they're using code from previous games.

Rob X, I don't see them shutting down the people making the remakes of King's Quest I&II and Quest for Glory II either...

Hello! Thanks for the shout-out:) I'm Katie, the Asst. Director of Game Design for KQIX, and we really appreciate all the support we've gotten since recieving the C&D letter.

We are exploring our options at this point, and a number of things have come up, been considered and are being reviewed by the team even now. Hopefully that'll lead to good news at some point.

Again, thanks so much!

Hey, I know how to fix this! It's a little plan called "DON'T CALL IT FREAKIN' KING'S QUEST"

All you have to do is change to copyrighted stuff to not copyrighted stuff and there you have it.

I hate seeing big corporations step on the little guy but when the little guy doesn't take step to protect himself like avoiding trademarks then they lose my sympathy.

It really sucks that a company would do this... let the community create interest in a title that has been dead for years and then as soon as they see it might become viable again... they put a stamp on those old C&D letters.
