You will need 5 config files as mentioned in the DosBox generic guide. The other folders within the extracted 'app' folder should be deleted. Rename the following folders to the indicated new name:įolder in your home directory. We will rename the folders into much simpler names for the sake of simplicity in the following steps. Quest for Glory 5 is not a Dos game, so it can't be installed the same way as the other games. What we want are the folders for Quest for Glory 1-4. However, since this installer is for 6 games (there are two versions of Quest for Glory 1), the app folder contains separate game folders. Most GOG games have the game data within the extracted app folder. There is one thing to note when extracting the contents of the Quest for Glory installer. Setting up games for DosBox is quite similar for most games, however these games require a few extra steps so this guide will be longer than other DosBox games guides I have. This guide will explain how to play these games on Linux with the help of DosBox, using the digital edition of the games available on GOG.com, but these steps should also be applicable to other versions.Īll games are available as "Quest for Glory 1-5" on GOG.com Personally I much prefer the original EGA version, but this guide will expain how to set up both, as well as the other games. There is a VGA remake of the first game, letting you use a point and click system. Meaning that you have to type what you want to do. Fighters also have the chance to become a Paladin, a class which is only available to an imported character that earned it in a previous game. You can select one of three classes when you start a new game, and you can import your character from the previous game into the next. The one thing that distinguishes these games from the other Sierra adventure games, are the rpg elements. The first game was originally released in 1989 under the name Hero's Quest: So You Want To Be A Hero, but name was shortly changed to Quest For Glory since another company had just released another game with an almost identical title. The Quest for Glory series is from the days of Sierra adventure games.
