What's King's quest about

ok so the King's Quest 2015 reboot. you play as Graham Cracker, hes got a red cape with a shit ton of pockets (it acts as the inventory, he can put literally anything in there, even people and baby dragons) and his adventurer's cap. you start by getting a magic mirror from the dragon's cave hidden under the old well. thus give you a sort of set up to the game mechanics, but also sets up the concept of the three different paths you can take throughout the game (compassion, strength, or wisdom) by how you choose to escape the dragon in the end (compassion by setting it free, strength by shooting it in the other eye (it already has an arrow through one), or wisdom by distracting it with the dinner bell) and you escape with the mirror.

after this, it gets revealed that the gameplay is actually stories that the old king (graham) is recounting to his granddaughter, gwendolyn, which is where some of the cutscene inbetween playing it comes from, as well as some of the dialogue to stop you from doing some actions, and also to prevent you from dying ("I don't remember that happening," "it cant end like this," the grandpa snoring, etc) and also as an intro into the gameplay

the next story you play is set before the prologue, when graham was just a knight hopeful going into daventry to compete in the tournament to become part of the royal guard. there are a few events leading up to getting into the competition (graham didnt see the date change so he misses the parade, he falls of his steed, triumph, and tumbles down a cliff, meets a merchant, steals a psuedo-wheel, etc) but once you finally get into the tournament you have to pass the chivalry test and meet all the knights, where theres Whisper (think daring charming type, hes also very fast), Acorn (has a squirrel friend, princess madeline of avalon), Manny (small, voiced by the guy who played vizzini, forms a secret alliance with graham), and Achaka(archer, purple, only says achaka and puts his fist to his palm and closes his fingers around it, very cool) once you pass the test and answer all the questions correctly, you move onto round 1: getting the eye of a hideous beast. you learn several different ways you can do this, and also meet all the different villagers: amaya, the blacksmith (represents the path of strength), the hobblepots, an old sort of witchy couple (represents the path of wisdom), and wente, the baker (represents the path of compassion). eventually, after talking to people, looking at things and finding items, you find your way to the old well and see achaka going down there, and you follow. you determine to get the eye of the dragon and follow achaka through several different obstacles. eventually, though, achaka teaches you to use a bow (previously, you couldnt shoot for shit), achaka get kills by the dragon and you can escape with or without the beast's eye.

the death of achaka really effects graham (and impacts him throughout the rest of the game) and he almost quits the tournament, but manny convinces him to stay. after you find an eye and finish the first round, you go on to round 2, the battle of strength, the battle of speed, and the battle of wits

you compete against acorn in the battle of strength and win by outsmarting him. you compete against whisper in the battle of speed and win by distracting him and also at one point you fly off your horse and use kyle and larry instead (they were running around earlier and also you met them previously but I dont remember when) and it's just a stack of three guys. somehow you win.

the last battle is the battle of wits against manny. it starts with him bringing in 3 cups of raisin juice that he puts some hypnotic powder into and it gets mixed around and you have to choose one, which you inevitably choose the hypnotic one, the game gets pulled out and you have to do what manny says. you lose the first time, but the knights dont trust manny and ruin the board and you have to play again. you're allowed time to prepare and can put a color changing potion you got from the hobblepots earlier into one of them. this allows you to know which one is without the hypnotic powder. now, you can win either fairly or by cheating. but once you win, manny challenges you to a battle of strength and tries to kill you. you're offered weapons to fight him with by the villagers, again representing the different paths you can take, and eventually win. this finishes chapter 1

(I've left out some of the other tidbits because I kinda forgot them since I havent played chapter 1 in a bit but at one point you help the guild of bridge trolls that are on strike, among other things)

chapter 2, the story is set when graham is king and focuses on how stressed he is about being king and having to be in charge of the kingdom and a bunch of decisions, while he is still tormented by the loss of achaka. kyle and larry are there briefly in the beginning. but also you and the rest of the village gets kidnapped by goblins and you have to get them out and try not to have any of them die. in the end graham comes to terms with not being able to fill the legacy if the old king, and instead build a new one. it's a pretty stressful level.

chapter 3 is about getting a wife, I dont remember a majority of the details because it's been forever since I've played it. chapter 4 is the same deal but also it's a whole thing about your family.

but mostly kings quest is really fun and has a bunch of puns and jokes and fun characters and really fun puzzles and it's just a fun game with knights and kings and stuff. also kyle and larry are a highlight. and so is amaya.

when people refer to canon story-relevant kingdom hearts games as ‘spinoffs’ it makes me sad not only for the obvious reasons i always say but also bc like man i WISH this series had spinoffs. imagine what they could do if they had permission from nomura to truly go off the rails and ignore the greater canon for a second and just do some fun whimsical plotless thing in an alternate universe. imagine a fishing/boating game on destiny islands. kh fighting game. it is an injustice that we have been deprived of kingdom karts. can anyone hear me

oh okay heres one:

"sleepaway camp"= you go there for at least a few days, a week, sometimes several weeks, and sleep there, as opposed to a """camp""" where you go for the day and your parents or whoever picks you up afterward (those arent really camps, but like. idk when i went to "space camp" it was a weeklong but not sleepaway). in the U.S. at least, the typical image of a sleepaway camp involves staying in cabins, dunno how common it is/what it looks like in other countries.

for the first few i just mean like. not necessarily a stealth church camp, just like. idk, a camp where theres also an Assumption Of Christianity and just general vibes without being actually church camp. So, there might not be daily services and jesusy dedicatwd activities, but maybe theres still a prayer said over meals and shit. Which i assume might exist...

(oh and @reblogforsamplesize if u wanna)
