King’s Quest IV was a much bigger hit than I, II, or III. I do feel that King’s Quest IV was a pivotal game in bringing in more female players.

I appreciate the sentiment that I am a popular woman in computer gaming circles; but I prefer being thought of as a computer game designer rather than a woman computer game designer. I don’t put myself into gender mode when designing a game.

A good story never dies.

Computers have become more friendly, understandable, and lots of years and thought have been put into developing software to convince people that they want and need a computer.

Freshness is important. If a game is fresh, new, intriguing, challenging, and enchanting, it will sell, and sell well.
