Let's talk freeware adventure. Now, you may be thinking ,"Freeware= Cheap Crap" This is not so because
1. Freeware can be great quality.
2.It's not cheap, it's free.
Although freeware can be riddled with spyware, and is normaly "Crap" there are those out there who do a great job and bring us great adventure games. That's why this thread is dedicated to those freeware programmers and the great games they produce.
Games like Out Of Order,Hungry Software, or Apprentice 1 and 2, herculeaneffort,( you can add to the list if you want.) So what do you guys think of freeware and what're favourites?

I like Lure of the Temptress and Beneath a Steel Sky:

Yeah, I know, they're not free, but liberated through the passing of time...

Burn- definitely agree with Out Of Order. Also, I'm looking forward to AmberFish Arts' sequel to "Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis". Freeware is so addictive...

A bit of technical Alice in Wonderland and Le Petit Prince in a Tolkien/Gaiman setting. :))
