Quest for Glory 1: So you want to be a hero

Quest for Glory 1: So You Want to Be a Hero is a 1989 adventure RPG that asks a deceptively simple question: what happens when an inexperienced adventurer decides to become a hero? The answer involves monsters, puzzles, exploration, humor, and a surprisingly large number of ways to get into trouble. Players choose a character class and explore a fantasy world where combat, conversation, and problem-solving all play important roles. The game blends adventure-game puzzles with role-playing mechanics, allowing different characters to approach situations in different ways. Its sense of humor is one of its greatest strengths, gently poking fun at fantasy conventions while still offering a genuinely engaging adventure. Becoming a hero is not easy, especially when you begin with limited skills and a tendency to investigate suspicious objects. Fortunately, failure is often entertaining.
