Kyrandia 1 was commissioned by Virgin to be a KQ clone. Virgin at that time had dreams of being the next Sierra, and they asked Westwood to make them a game to compete with KQ.

I also think 4 stars is extremely generous to the game. It has a number of serious flaws (including a large number of walking deads) that really should disqualify it for the rating. Hand of Fate might deserve 4 stars, but not this game, in my opinion. On the other hand, it doesn't really bother me that the reviewer thinks differently.
