Has anyone actually purchased any of these yet? I am very vurious about the technology behind it, especially for King’s Quest 6. As I’m sure most of you are aware that is a real pain to get working on Windows XP. I’m not sure if it works on Vista but it sure won’t work on Windows 7.
I e-mailed the GOG team to ask what they do to get them running on modern computers. Is it an emulator? A modified installer? Or is the game somehow re-coded? The response was “we don’t give away are secrets”.
Seeing how I already own multiple copies of the KQ series I am not interested in buying it again to play on Windows 7 if it’s simply the DOS version bundled with an emulator. But if it works under Windows 7 I would buy it. Can anyone offer some insight?
