PC GAME FOR SALE	

************* Kings Quest V - CDROM Version  **************

This is the CD-ROM version of Kings Quest V by Sierra On-Line.
The game has absolutely beautiful graphics, and is in my opinion
on of Sierra's finest story lines to date.  It truely is an epic
adventure taking from a village, through a desert, to a witches
castle, through snowy mountains, over a sea, and evetually to the
evil wizard Mordack's island and castle.

The CD-ROM version is basically the same as the original, except for
the 125+ Megabytes of sound.  There is little text, and everything
is spoken including things like "Are you sure you want to quit?".

You will need a sound board, and of course, a cd-rom player for this game
It will run on DOS directly or in windows as an Multi-Media program.
When I played on Windows, peculiarly enough, most of the non-player
and background animation was disabled.  Perhaps I mis-configured something,
but I just palyed it under DOS.

The game comes on a CD in a standard plastic CD "jewel box", with all 
documentation in the "liner notes".  I received no other cards or boxes,
etc. - perhaps because I ordered it with my cd-rom player.

I will sell the game for $35.

I will pay shipping.  It will be mailed inside a box with packing.
