King's Quest ZZT is a game, which I made together with MeBo (Who is a member of Mebo Inc, which is known from the upcoming MegaZeux game MeBo RPG). While making it, we've really tried our best to combine a good storyline, nice graphics, and fun gameplay. It's based on the King's Quest series by Sierra, but apart from pure adventure, it also has a couple of RPG elements in it, like the battle shown on the right. In these battles, the player can use up to 6 fully animated weapons/spells. | King's Quest ZZT is a game, which I made together with MeBo (Who is a member of Mebo Inc, which is known from the upcoming MegaZeux game MeBo RPG).

Description
Niels Reyngoud' s King's Quest ZZT is a Adventure/RPG game.
King's Quest ZZT is a game, which I made together with MeBo (Who is a member of Mebo Inc, which is known from the upcoming MegaZeux game MeBo RPG). While making it, we've really tried our best to combine a good storyline, nice graphics, and fun gameplay. It's based on the King's Quest series by Sierra, but apart from pure adventure, it also has a couple of RPG elements in it, like the battle shown on the right. In these battles, the player can use up to 6 fully animated weapons/spells.
