'''Quest 5''', commonly just called '''Quest''', is an authoring system published in 2012 for [[Interactive Fiction]]. It creates [[XML]] files with the extension .aslx, which can be edited either in an official, GUI-based editor (written in a combination of [[C_Sharp|C#]] and [[Visual Basic. NET]]), or as [[plaintext]]. The editor contains a feature to "publish" these as .quest files, which are [[ZIP]] files containing the original .aslx as well as media (images, sounds) bundled with it. The .aslx or the .quest files can be played either in the editor or in a "web player" (which uses the same backend as the editor).<br />
<br />
Quest 5 should be confused with neither [[Quest|Quest versions 1-4]], which it superseded but is distinct from, nor [[QuestMaker]], which is entirely unrelated aside from being another interactive fiction format.<br />
