Set in medieval times, Fame Quest is a strategy
game in which you must get your knight as much gold
and fame as possible.
Weapons and armour must be bought in order to defend
yourself. Bandits and other baddies will try to rob
you of your gold and, if you do not have the correct
weapons, they might kill you.
When you select an action or encounter someone or
something a small graphical illustration is given.
This certainly adds variety to the game and is
quite a nice touch.
Playing is done through a series of menus and options. A variety of possible actions are given
when the need arises. When you encounter someone
you are given the option of talking to them; on
doing this they might ask you a question. If you
give the correct answer then your gold and fame
might go up, if you give the wrong answer...
The program is self explanatory and very well set
out. Loading is very well set out. Loading is very
fast and accurate. Incidentally the screen does not
go blank when loading is taking place.
