King's Quest 6: Heir Today, Gone Tomorrow — is a 2D point-and-click adventure game. To control the game, the player uses a graphical panel located at the top of the screen with buttons that allow him to perform actions: walk, look (while the narrator describes the selected item), use and speak accordingly. It is the 2nd game in the series that uses a similar interface. All previous games in the series used a text parser, which required the player to type commands and actions on the keyboard instead of selecting them on the screen.
