(re:Police Quest Area) Hey,
Recently I bought the gray box edition of Kings Quest ii from ebay, the seller just happened to be Steve Walls, Jim Walls’ son. I wrote to him voicing my appreciation for his father’s games and he replied with some cool info. I guess Jim was working for Electronic Arts helping with console games. His latest and last work was The Legend of Black Kat(I think that was the title, its a pirate game). He recently retired from there and is living in California still. Steve also told me some neat things about PQ and Iceman. Sonny and Steve from PQ1 were named after two of Jim’s sons, Sonny and Steve. The man depicting the main character(can’t remember the name) on the Codename:Iceman box is Jim’s youngest son and the girl with the blanket or hood on is his daughter. Anyway I don’t have Jim’s email but his son told me that he always loves hearing how much people appreciated his games and the impact they had.
