As an old fan of Quest for Glory and the point and click adventure series in general, I very much loved this game.

Quest for Infamy follows the adventures of Roehm. Certainly no hero, Roehm is a roguish fellow, although he's not a complete villain either.

The game is quite huge in terms of places to visit and things to do. The artwork for the game is well-drawn and it has an entertaining story with an interesting cast of characters. It also offers a lot of replayability in that one can pick from a Thief, Brigand or Sorcerer. While Thieves can sneak into houses the Brigands can engage in caravan attack missions and Mages can collect spell components and learn new spells. More than just changes to the combat system, each class has its own unique storylines and its own way of dealing with problems. For instance, while a thief may sneak past 3 unruly hunters using the thief tunnels the Brigand can simply fight them off while the Mage can cast a fear spell that sends them running in terror. Each class has unique missions to accomplish and can befriend different casts of characters to learn more about the world around them and those who populate it.

The game's story itself is quite good and has a very dark, gothic style to it as well as mischievous and perverted sense of humor. The game functions well as a loving tribute/parody to Quest for glory and the adventure/fantasy genre in general. Longtime Sierra fans of olde will appreciate many of the Easter Eggs hidden throughout the game thought it's completely unnecessary to be an oldschool Sieera fan to enjoy the game in general. The game also features very good voice-acting and narration to accompany the story.

There are some complex puzzles to the game that can be quite tricky and confusing though, but it's well worth the effort to make your way past them and find out what happens next. The focus of the game is much more on adventuring and solving puzzles and soaking in the fun than on combat, so pure-adrenaline junkies should probably stick to Skyrim. If you're easily offended and want something more PG you should probably stick with Quest for Glory instead.

Overall I'd give it a 9/10 and I do hope it has a sequel someday. :)
