Quest for Glory: So You Want to Be a Hero

1989 · Atari ST · Sierra Entertainment

Quest for Glory: So You Want to Be a Hero is a 1989 adventure game/role-playing game hybrid, designed by Lori Ann Cole and published by Sierra On-Line for MS-DOS. It is the first game in the Quest for Glory series, and established the series' trademark mix of graphical adventure gaming with role-playing-like elements such as statistic building that would affect the ability to accomplish certain tasks in the game. The game has a satirical and silly tone. Ports for the Amiga, Atari ST, and NEC PC-9801 were released in the early 1990s. A VGA remake with enhanced graphics, titled Quest for Glory I: So You Want to Be a Hero, was released in 1992 for MS-DOS, and later in 1994 for Mac OS. Synopsis from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA.
