Description

King's Quest VII: The Princeless Bride is the seventh episode in the King's Quest Series. It was the first to feature VESA graphics with a native resolution of 640px x 480px. The style was changed over to a more cartoony style to mimic a Disney animated movie. RBTs were used for the DOS cutscenes, while the Windows interpreter used Windows AVI movies.
