King's Quest VII: The Princeless Bride is the 7th King's Quest game, and the only one in the series to feature 2 playable characters: Queen Valanice, making her debut (and only) appearance as a main character, and Princess Rosella, returning after being relegated to window dressing after King's Quest IV. It tells the story of Princess Rosella, impetuously getting herself lost in the enchanted land of Eldritch when she sees a strange flying seahorse and feels the siren song of adventure. Queen Valanice, the protective mother, follows after her, but they are separated, and must struggle to reunite and escape back to Daventry.
KQ7 was remarkable in the Sierra Quest series as being on of their only hand-animated and hand-painted games, one of the earliest adopters of SVGA graphics. It was visually very different from its predecessors, feeling much more slapstick and animated - a product of its visual style, and was dismissed by many King's Quest fans for this. Nevertheless, it's very much a King's Quest game at heart, with all of the ludicrousness and violent random deaths one would expect - with the kind addition of an auto-retry system, allowing the player to not have to restore an earlier game if they die unexpectedly without saving.
The NPCs are playing the King's Quest Collection version from GOG.com with the "Timbres of Heaven" soundfont for background music.
Sierra Saturday is a weekly series on the Level 0 NPCs channel, where Matt & Luke relive their childhoods playing classic adventure games of the '80s and '90s (and beyond?). Sierra adventure games were a special breed of dark humor, brutally unfair puzzles and unforgettable characters, and we hope you enjoy this walk down memory lane with us.
