I don’t remember hearing anything about a “King’s Quest 8 2D” before KQ:MOE was developed in 3D! Has anyone else heard of this?
I thought KQ7 in Disney 2D was pretty successful, but maybe not as successful as the previous games. KQ:MOE was always an extremely interesting game to me – without the “8” in the title, a King’s Quest in 3D, with an almost RPG feel to it (probably had something to do with the fact that I think I was playing Betrayal at Krondor around that same time), and it felt like a much darker game than the previous KQs.
