    Despite the fragmented narrative, the end result is still discreet, in line with the average of the series. Excluding some inevitable flaws, we continue to consider King's Quest one of the most successful episodic series of recent times.

    King’s Quest: Chapter 5 – The Good Knight makes some notable stumbles, but old-school adventure game lovers will find a lot to like, and the later portions provide a satisfying end to Graham's journey.

Each chapter taken individually has strengths and weaknesses, but now that the tale has concluded, I will not only recommend this game to adventure fans, but encourage them to play all of the chapters in rapid succession. Having done that now, playing it through twice so I could see how different decisions made along the way impact the story, I can say that on the whole the experience is far more entertaining and cohesive when tackled as a single game without months of downtime between chapters.
