ZorkQuest: Assault on Egreth Castle
Description
This was one of the first interactive comic books (along with Lane Mastodon and Gamma Force.)
The unique element of this software was you could "follow" the narrative from a single character's point of view, or "jump" to another character's. Thus, you could re-read the story to learn new things about how the character's different paths affected each other and the outcome of the story.
The display technology used a 3D vector format; Many scenes scaled (like zooming on a camera lens), although this sacrificed detailed graphical textures and colors.
This Zork inspired comic acts more like a D&D novel, following a party of travelers as they enter and explore Egreth Castle.
