Adventure Games

[Blackjack]

I'm a huge fan of the Monkey Island and Broken Sword series of adventure games. And these days i'm waiting for Broken Sword; The Angel of Death to be released in september.

I'm looking for games like that. Pure story/puzzle/grab shit from your inventory and use it games.

Done all the Broken Sword, Monkey Island games and Grim Fandango.

So come on OT, i know there must be other addicts to this type of adventure games out there who is just sitting with a gem i have yet to play.

Help make the waiting period bareable

Loved monkey island but then i got hooked on the Final Fantasy series

Havent heard of Broken sword - so guess ill look into it

Stil the best Adventure game I know is Zork: Nemesis. It´s a DOS or Win95 game, so you might run into some problems with the installation etc.etc. but it´s HIGHLY entertaining.
Also, try The Longest Journey. Good story and some nice puzzles.

Yes, Dreamfall haven´t played it though. I didn´t like the idea of changing POVs for some reason.
However.. it worked in Fahrenheit. That´s another recommendation btw, it´s not 100% an Adventure, more an interactive story. But I still liked the new game mechanics.

dreamfall was awesome... alot of cinematics though most people will get bored... I'd say at least 1/2 of it is sitting watching the cinematics

Flashback and it's sequel?

Old games but good fun

 

[Fana]

Flight of the Amazon Queen was good, and The Dig

 

[Oysterboy]

Syberia, both 1 and 2.

Nothing beats Legend of Zelda series for Adventure/Puzzle games, especially Ocarina of Time on the 64. Grew up on those games, and still enjoy them to this day.

Great games, I utterly loved 'The Dig'.

 

[cHodAX]

Syberia, both 1 and 2.

I have heard great things about these games as well and Dreamfall is very decent too from what little I have played. There are alot of good recommendations in this thread but 'The Dig' is a Lucasarts game and plays alot like Monkey Island 2 so you might want to give that a go first.

Little review can be found here but beware the spoilers...

[Ardas Nails]

ya recommend these and longest journey

 

[Dantares]

They brought out 2 discworld rpgs, maybe three now

If talking about point and click adventure, then there's three. Discworld, Discworld 2: Missing Presumed.... and Discworld Noir.

 

[Naffets]

Played all the broken sword games, classics
Played all the monkey island games, again, classics
Played both longest journey games, really good
Played flight of the amazon queen + the dig, both r0x
Played all fallout games
Played oblivion
Played 2 of the discworld games
Flashback + another world both rocked

Yes, i'm an adventure geek, oh and by "played" i mean finished, more than once

lol space quest & kings quest such oldskool games but still awesome.

/edit-- Flashback rocks, just installed it on my pc the other week, bit easier on the old sega i found but just takes some getting used to with a keyboard
