Set in medieval times, Fame Quest is a strategy game in which you must get your knight as much gold and fame as possible.

Weapons and armour must be bought in order to defend yourself. Bandits and other baddies will try to rob you of your gold and, if you do not have the correct weapons, they might kill you.

When you select an action or encounter someone or something a small graphical illustration is given. This certainly adds variety to the game and is quite a nice touch.

Playing is done through a series of menus and options. A variety of possible actions are given when the need arises. When you encounter someone you are given the option of talking to them; on doing this they might ask you a question. If you give the correct answer then your gold and fame might go up, if you give the wrong answer...

The program is self explanatory and very well set out. Loading is very well set out. Loading is very fast and accurate. Incidentally the screen does not go blank when loading is taking place.
