King's Quest Omnipedia

The town cryer was a character who appeared in Wizard and the Princess.

Background[]

The town cryer was speaking to the villagers of the village of Serenia, telling them about King George IV's offer to give up half his kingdom and the hand of his daughter Princess Priscilla to anyone who could defeat Harlin and rescue the princess. The Wanderer, a barbarian from the future, overheard this reward, and decided to take up the offer (although he ultimately turned it down in the end).

Behind the scenes[]

The 'town crier' was also a section of the KQ8 website.
