Christmas Quest trilogy re-re(?)-release!
Remember what it was like to be a kid at Christmas? Waking up so early that your parents would kill you if you roused them at that hour… fervently hoping that Santa had come and deposited your special wish under the brightly decorated tree… anxiously willing the clock to move, tick-by-unfreakingbelievablyslow-tick… finally, unable to contain your excitement any longer, bounding down the stairs to bask in the glow of another holiday bonanza…
Do you actually remember? It’s often hard nowadays, with all the stress and spending, the traffic and noise, to recapture those memories of innocence and magic and joy. Lucky for you, there’s Christmas Quest! That’s right, with that special day approaching fast, we are pleased to draw your attention once again to not one, not two, but all THREE holiday adventures from the staff right here at Adventure Gamers. It’s like gold, frankincense, and myrrh, only more practical and easier to spell. These games give a whole new meaning to the term “evergreen” adventures!
I’m afraid there won’t be a new CQ this year, as the trilogy is now complete (plus we didn’t want to miss a fourth consecutive holiday season in a mad scramble to make another). Instead, we decided we’d make good use of the entire year to finally iron out those final few (tiny, almost imperceptible) wrinkles in each game, enhance them with improved animations and effects, and convert them all to Flash to play online… except then the whole year passed without doing any of those things, so we’re releasing them exactly the same as before. (It’s the thought that counts, though, right?) On the plus side, they’re still free, and all three games have in fact been updated at least once since original launch, so even if you’ve downloaded them before, make sure you have the latest version before you play this year.
