Recently we tracked down Donald B. Trivette, the author of the above article, and asked him what he remembered about it. He recalls that he spoke to Ken Williams, Roberta Williams, and John Williams over the phone as part of the preparation for the article, and he says that if he called it the Game Adaptation Language in the article, then that is what they would have told him the name of the language used by King's Quest was called.
We followed this up with John Williams to see if he could also recall this. John does recall speaking to Donald B. Trivette, many times over the years in fact. John confirms that the language was called Game Adaptation Language at that time, and John also says that they included copies of the above article in some of the copies of King's Quest that they distributed.
