I guess I'm also one of the minority here.  I like
the KQ series.  I don't like KQ7 as much, but I
like the others.

I think one thing people need to realize is: KQ
is a fairy tale.  It is based on fairy tales.  Many
of the puzzles are from German folktales and some
Middle East and Eastern Europe stories.  For example, 
in KQ6, where the lady needed to be given the white 
rose, that was based on the original Beauty and the 
Beast, where Beauty asked her fathr to bring her 
the very first flower he saw on his way home, and 
the white rose was it.  

While the logic of the puzzles are not very 'down
to earth,' they are, nontheless, logical.  You just
need to know your childhood stories.  

Personally, I've been able to finish all KQ series
so far w/o any walkthrus.
