Quest for Glory IV: Shadows of Darkness is the fourth game in the Quest for Glory series. In this adventure/RPG hybrid, the hero is transported directly from his victory in Tarna to the dark caves in the distant land of Mordavia. The hero has no equipment and no idea why he has been sent here. He ultimately gets himself back into fighting shape, and is helped several times by a young woman named Katrina. He has to battle with several of his previous foes, and ultimately becomes part of a plot to summon a great power.

Miscellaneous

It is possible to import characters from past games to future games and continue from the stats earned from those games.

For example, a character can be imported from Quest for Glory I directly to Quest for Glory III without having to necessarily play Quest for Glory II. To use a saved character from the original Sierra interpreter, rename the character file to "qfg[game-number]-[character-filename].sav" (for example, qfg2-thief.sav)and place it in the ScummVM save path, otherwise the file won't get listed on the import screen.

Characters cannot be imported from future games to past games, nor can a character be imported to the same game that was just completed.
