Description

Dragon Fire is final game in the Quest for Glory series, as well as the final game from the 'original' Sierra On-Line (renamed Yosemite Entertainment). The Hero journeys to the Greece-like land of Silmaria to investigate an assassination and prevent a Dragon from destroying the land. He may also wind up as the new King of Silmaria. Many old friends make appearances. The game features panoramic hand-drawn backgrounds, three-dimensional characters, and a fully orchestrated score.

Trivia

One of the characters in the game is named Kokeeno Pookameeso, which is probably twisted from 'kokkino poukamiso', Greek for 'red shirt'. There is a Greek play by that name, but it may also refer to the Star Trek tradition of red-shirted security officers - Kokeeno Pookameeso is a guard and dies early in the game.
