REVIEW                                                     King's Quest Mask of Eternity

Come once again  to the feeric world of Daventry.But this time,it won'tbox-shot.gif (12094 bytes) be as feeric as it used to be.Why?a bad omen has destroyed the mask of eternity,keeper of truth,light and order,and scattered it over the land.Now,five pieces of the mask are hidden in the huge kingdom of Daventry.As the mask was destroyed,a vile tempest attacked daventry and turned all it's inhabitants into stone,including  the royal family.It so happened that only one man managed to avoid the curse when he luckily one of the five pieces of the mask.And that man is you......
You must now venture through the seven three-dimensionnal worlds in order to restore Daventry and revive its inhabitants.Meet dozens of characters in hundreds of places.Some will help you,some will  to
henchman.jpg (9059 bytes) harm you.....The new thing in king's quest,besides its 3D environnement,are combats.Yes,there are combats in Mask of eternity.!Although it may annoy some of the series fans,the easy combat setting should turn the grief into fun,for they are simple and easy to control.The worlds of King's Quest are beautifully designed but some graphics problems occur.The soundtrack is enchanting and is about to ship on a audio CD.The major con in the game  is the loading from one world to another.An overall reaction from critics would somehow oblige you not to miss the game.
