History YMMV / KingsQuestVIIThePrincelessBride

* BizarroEpisode: Though the game itself may be viewed as such in comparison to the previous entries in the series, Chapter 2 (A troll is as a troll does) counts in-game. Though important in establishing Rosella's story [[spoiler:(not to mention Rosella actually BEING a troll for most of it)]], most of the troll kingdom and nearly all of its residents never appear or are mentioned again in any other chapter. This is especially different from the Valanice chapters, which require going back and forth between almost all previously visited areas and new ones.

* TearJerker: There is a suboptimal ending where [[spoiler:you stop Malicia but don't give Edgar the extra life, resulting in his death]]. Instead of a triumphant ending sequence, you get [[spoiler: Titania audible sobbing as she promises to [[RaiseHimRightThisTime raise Malicia right this time]], followed by a shot of Oberon and Titania flying Valanice and Rosella home on a black swan.]]

* GuideDangIt: The final puzzle. [[spoiler: The magic wand that can change the impostor troll king back has two settings, T and F, but unless you mouse over the one pixel at the bottom of the wand you'd never know. More annoying is that since it's a wand to change something back to its own shape, you'd think the T and F stand for True and False. Nope, they stand for ''Troll'' and ''Faerie'', so using the wand set to T on the fake troll king won't work, and you don't find out that the false king is one of the faeries until after you change him back.]]

* EarWorm: The gravedigger's theme and depending on who you ask, [[AwardBaitSong Land Beyond Dreams]].

* ToughActToFollow: The game seems to have been hit with this, seeing as ''VideoGame/KingsQuestVIHeirTodayGoneTomorrow'' is seen as the best game in the series.

* ContestedSequel: Nowhere near as much as the universally-reviled ''VideoGame/KingsQuestMaskOfEternity'', but it still has a large number of detractors who don't like, among other things, the changes made to the ''VideoGame/KingsQuest'' (and early-to-mid Sierra adventure games in general) formula, like the lack of HaveANiceDeath and a point system and the addition of chapters, which can be played out of order.

* GeniusBonus: Count Vladimir's last name, Tsepish, is a phonetic spelling of the Romanian word ''tepes'', or [[UsefulNotes/VladTheImpaler impaler]].
