Roberta Williams is still alive, it could just be out of respect as she pretty much single handily (with her husband) created the Graphical Adventure genre.retrosportsgamer wrote:Pardon my ignorance but what's up with the candles around the King's Quest creator on the back page?

Coolness - I was a HUGE Quest for Glory fan growing up. Just didn't know if there was a story or something there.noiseredux wrote:I think it's just meant as a shrine to Roberta.

Surprised they're covering a game as obscure as Torin's Passage (one of my favorites). Will probably grab this.
