Telltale Games

I loved this game so much, I wish they had made a sequal, the character was awesome and the game was too short.

Nightlong: Union City Conspiracy.

hahhahaa I have no idea what game that is but I love the "he is dead, permanently" comment, wth?

Harald B · 09/04/2007, 05:23 am

That exact text appears a couple of times in the game, actually. Not because of any undead, but because you also occasionally knock people unconcious and the graphics don't show the difference. (Leaving corpses lying around is bad enough, but if you try to move a body that isn't dead, it might wake up and kill you.) And also because of its unique brand of humor, yes. I love this game.

I guess i've never played this one although the person in jeans and with the jacket somehow reminds me of Flight of the Amazon Queen or Teenagent but this one has a different interface and i also can't remember such a scene. Amiga or PC? Looks like something from 90-95 or so.

Harald B · 09/05/2007, 01:43 am

It came out for both Amiga and PC. Not 100% sure which version this screenshot is from. And I'll confirm for the record that it's neither Flight of the Amazon Queen nor Teenagent..

Hmm, seems I'm holding up this thread. Since I don't want to be the death of it, I'll post some more screenshots to jolt your memory. If it turns out no one else here has ever played this game I'll be sad; it's one of my favorites! Maybe I'll post some dead giveaways this evening..
In these shots we see the tried-and-true method of extreme close ups in dialogue.

KGB (AKA Conspiracy)

...Death Gate

...?

Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego?

Kidding.

taumel · 09/05/2007, 09:24 am

Nope, and it's also no "Where in Space/Europe/USA/... is Carmen Sandiego?".

How would something like a moongate from Ultima be called in a SF scenario - six letters?

AllenB · 09/05/2007, 04:11 pm

Portal?

taumel · 09/05/2007, 11:15 pm

Yep! :O)

AllenB · 09/07/2007, 12:30 pm

And no, it's not 25th Anniversary.

patters · 09/07/2007, 01:18 pm

Badwolf · 09/07/2007, 01:26 pm

Is it sad that the first thing I thought of was "All your base"/"Zero Wing"?

AllenB · 09/07/2007, 01:27 pm

It's you !!

Kedri · 09/07/2007, 05:09 pm

Judgement Rites?

AllenB · 09/07/2007, 05:27 pm

You bloody well bet

Laserschwert · 09/07/2007, 05:33 pm

Ah, "Judgement Rites" is probably THE best Trek point'n'click...
