I can't download / install / play the game!
Please refer to the Technical FAQ.
Why did you remake KQII?
In 1985, King’s Quest II: Romancing The Throne was released as a sequel to its predecessor. While having a number of sound adventure game elements, some feel that it was but an extension of the first game. At AGDI, we strove to make the game as great as its potential suggested. An extended plot, fleshed out characters, and an increased and challenging gameplay were painstakingly integrated into the game. We enjoyed making KQII the best it could be, and it is now our hope that you will be able to experience the same enjoyment playing it.
Did you keep the same title?
Almost. The title has been re-named King’s Quest II: Romancing The Stones. Aside from bringing it closer to the movie from which the original title was derived, the new title more accurately reflects the revamped plot.
When will the game be released? I want to play it now!
And play it now you can! The King's Quest II+ VGA remake was released on December 3rd, 2002.
The original game felt like an odd collection of fairy tales. Is this still the case? If not, how does it differ?
Fairy tales are an important part of KQ, but they are not the be all and end all. While every effort has been made to retain the fairy tale elements from the original game, much care has been taken to integrate them with subtlety. We believe players find satisfaction in establishing links themsleves.
In KQ2VGA, some real connections have been drawn between the characters; they relate to each other and have personal histories. As a basic example, ask yourself this: Just what was that stuff doing under Grandma’s bed?
Am I to understand, then, that you've altered the map?
Yep. Considerably, in fact. Kolyma now feels like a land with a geography that makes sense. The realm is now steeped in history... and now supports a population! In addition, entirely new areas are available to explore. The land of Kolyma has undergone a geological evolution!
What about the plot? How close is this game to the original?
The original premise has been maintained. One will recognise the skeletal story outline, but will experience a LOT more in the way of plot, characters, puzzles and an immersive setting.
So if I've played the original, then I should find this game easy?
Not at all. In fact, there will be many extra things to experience; puzzle extensions, plot twists, fleshed out characters, local history... you'll almost think you're playing a different game. And yes, we believe that is a good thing.
Will you include voice acting like in the King's Quest I VGA remake?
Yes! A speech pack is now available from the KQ2VGA feature page.
