List your adventure games here :)

[MrsBBC]

I was reading through this thread for inspiration for titles to purchase and to see if I played or owned any that aren't mentioned.

Several people have played ecoquest, but not necessarily the second one.
I recently purchased the first game from amazon and have been playing it through dosbox, but can't get very far.

The second game; secret of the rainforest, was the second computer game and adventure game that my dad ever bought me (the first was legend of kyrandia which took me 10months to complete). As a bit of an adventurer/explorer who wanted to pick up litter and learn everything about ecosytems and the environment it was perfect.

I went looking for it recently but couldn't find it, if anyone has a copy, I would be very grateful.

Adventure games have always been my favourite type of game.
Always played them since the days of the zx specrtum, and its good to see the adventure seen hasn,t died with games like Siberia and web games like Samorost 2.

Here is my Top Ten of all time.

10. Dreamweb. (Great sound music, Free download at Abadonware needs dos box)
9. Sanitarium. (They don,t make games like this anymore)
8. Indian Jones and the fate of atlantis. (Good enough to warrent a film)
7. Scratches ( A fairly new first person adventure that deserves its place here.
6. The secret of Monkey Island. (Something about that theme music reminds me of what games are all about) @Abondonware
5. Gabriel Knight sins of the father ( A Gem )
4. The Curse of Monkey Island ( 1 beautifully crafted game )
3. Day of the Tenticle ( plays like a cartoon )
2. Monkey Island 2 ( The best in the series)
1. Grim Fandango ( Created when the adventure game was loved by all )

The remake of Secret of Monkey Island and the Tales of Monkey Island have recently rekindled my interest in the games I grew up with.

Lucasarts

Lucasarts Complete Collection (Amiga) which consisted of:
- Maniac Mansion
- Zak McKracken and the Alien Mindbenders
- Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade
- Loom
- The Secret of Monkey Island
(What got me all into it. Sadly Lucasarts stopped making games for the Amiga after 1992)

Monkey Island Bounty Pack (PC CD-ROM) which had the CD version of SMI with non-midi music and a picture inventory, and the standard midi/pc speaker version of Monkey Island 2: Le Chuck's Revenge

- The Curse of Monkey Island (first game I bought as soon as I had a new PC)

- Escape from Monkey Island

- Loom (talky version)

- Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis

- Full Throttle

- Sam & Max Hit the Road

- The Dig

- Day of the Tentacle

- Grim Fandango

Sierra
- The only Sierra (adventure) game I've played is King's Quest VI but I'm slowly watching through all the playthroughs of Space Quest and Police Quest on youtube

Revolution
Broken Sword: Shadow of the Templars
Broken Sword: The Smoking Mirrror
Broken Sword: The Sleeping Dragon

The first Broken Sword game's music is among the best ever heard in an adventure game, certainly for its time. I haven't played The Angel of Darkness or the Wii remake of Shadow of the Templars which has more story than the original.

Telltale Games
- Sam and Max Save the World
- Sam and Max: Beyond Space and Time
- Strong Bad's Cool Games for Attractive People episode one (didn't appeal to me as much because I'm not really up on the HSR in-jokes and pre-story)

Others

- Simon the Sorcerer
- Simon the Sorcerer 2

- Discworld (couldn't get the sound working so missed out on Eric Idle's voice acting)

- Flight of the Amazon Queen (both on Amiga and on Linux through ScummVM)

- Gilbert Goodmate and the Mushroom of Phungoria (I signed up as a playtester for this, but unfortunately couldn't get the disc to work at the time). Graphically very similar to the style of CMI

- The Longest Journey (Just completed this game yesterday as it was downloadable from Steam. What a brilliant game! A perfect mix between mundane reality and fantasy. I hope Ragnar Tornquist releases the LJ episodes before too long)

Not so adventurey games

- Little Big Adventure 2: Twinsen's Odyssey (another game that creates such atmosphere and nostalgia)

- Dune (does that count?)

That's about all I can remember.

PLay Gabriel Knight sins of the father (should be at abandonware sites. A forgoten Gem)

All below are for PC

The Secret of Monkey Island (VGA with CD sound) -- on Monkey Island Madness CD from LucasArts Archives Vol. III box
The Secret of Monkey Island:Special Edition -- bought via Steam, then dl'ed Steam-less copy via torrent bcuz I hate being forced to use it.
Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's Revenge -- on Monkey Island Madness CD from LucasArts Archives Vol. III box
The Curse of Monkey Island -- by LucasArts
Escape from Monkey Island -- by LucasArts
Tales of Monkey Island -- Telltale, you rock, I mean seriously.

(note: May it be known that I first played SMI on the diskette EGA version, after having borrowed the game from my cousin who wasn't into computer games, and that my favorite MI game has been Curse primarily because of Murray's character and the voice actors' skill, however Tales does tie if not gives it a run for it's money.)


King's Quest I: Quest for the Crown -- VGA Remake by AGD
King's Quest II: Romancing the Stones -- VGA Remake by AGD
King's Quest III: To Heir is Human -- VGA Remake by IA
King's Quest V: Absence Makes the Heart Go Yonder -- CD version by Sierra On-Line
King's Quest VI: Heir Today, Gone Tomorrow -- CD version by Sierra On-Line
King's Quest VII: The Princeless Bride -- by Sierra On-Line

(note: My first adventure game ever was KQ4. My parents disliked adventure games after having to restart the game when they got stuck after giving the gem bag to the fisherman and not to the dwarf first. Also, thanks to extended family and friends, I have played the original versions of KQ1, 2 and 3, and diskette version of KQ6. However, I prefer the newest VGA versions, complete with voice acting. This being said, I do wish Magic Mirror Games would finish their remake of KQ4 soon.)


Sam & Max: Hit the Road -- CD by LucasArts
Sam & Max: Save the World -- DVD by Telltale Games
Sam & Max: Beyond Time and Space -- by Telltale Games

Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People -- DVD by Telltale Games (gotta love HomestarRunner.com)
Peasant's Quest - by Videlectrix (aka. HomestarRunner.com)

(note: I heard that Telltale was making TMI, so I planned on buying, but waited until the entire game was out to do so. In the interim, having found Telltale's website, I bought Sam & Max Season 1 to play while I waited. Since then I have not only bought TMI, but also Sam & Max Season 2, SBCG4AP, and am considering buying Wallace & Gromit. Not only do I buy these games because they're EXCELLENT, but also because I really want to support Telltale's success and continued production of great games. I love Monkey Island, and Sam and Max. Keep up the good work.)


Quest for Glory I: So You Want to Be a Hero -- CD by Sierra On-Line
Quest for Glory II: Trial by Fire -- remake by AGD
Quest for Glory III: Wages of War -- CD by Sierra On-Line
Quest for Glory IV: Shadows of Darkness -- CD by Sierra On-Line

Legend of Kyrandia -- CD by Westwood Studios

Maniac Mansion Deluxe -- remake by LucasFan Games
Day of the Tentacle -- CD by LucasArts

The Dig -- CD from LucasArts Archives Vol. III box
Full Throttle -- CD from LucasArts Archives Vol. III box

(I also have once played Grim Fandango by LucasArts, and though it was a very good game, the plot never really stayed with me. Also, Torin's Passage by Sierra On-Line was a game that I have owned yet misplaced, but though it was fun to play and had an interesting plot, the ending is so anti-climactic and screams 'I need a sequel' so bad that I would never recommend it to anyone since there is none.)

[MusicallyInspired]

This thread isn't big enough to contain my entire adventure game list. I have a spreadsheet file, though (but I haven't updated it in a while).

I'm surprised how many people have played Ecoquest I and not Ecoquest 2. I actually played the second one first and the first one only recently. I know I have the second one in a box around here somewhere, but I'm sure those looking for it can find it on the adandonware websites mentioned above.

Okay, so a list (off the top of my head):

The Secret of Monkey Island
Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's Revenge
Curse of Monkey Island
Escape from Monkey Island
Tales of Monkey Island

Legend of Kyrandia
Legend of Kyrandia: Hand of Fate
Legend of Kyrandia: Malcolm's Revenge

Laura Bow: The Colonel's Bequest
Laura Bow: The Dagger of Amon-Ra (oh how many problems I've had getting this game to work on various computers over the years)

Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis (all three paths)

Lost Files of Sherlock Holmes - The Case of the Serrated Scalpel

Ecoquest: The Search for Cetus (still can't get all the points for this)
Ecoquest II: Secret of the RainForest

The Lost Adventures of Legend CD compilation:
Companions of Xanth (I read the books, so I really liked this game)
Eric the Unready
Timequest
Gateway
Gateway II: Homeworld
Spellcasting 101
Spellcasting 201
Spellcasting 301

King's Quest I: Quest for the Crown (remake)
King's Quest II: Romancing the Throne (remake)
King's Quest III: To Heir Is Human (remake)
King's Quest IV: The Perils of Rosella (looking forward to the remake)
King's Quest V: Absence Makes the Heart Go Yonder!
King's Quest VI: Heir Today, Gone Tomorrow
King's Quest VII: The Princeless Bride
(I think I played the original King's Quest I on a really old Apple computer when I was maybe 3 years old. All I remember is that it was incredibly slow and my father told me not to play it. But I never forgot the couple of forest scenes I saw, they intrigued me so much. I only recently found these again so I guess I'm a little late to the KQ games)

...and the ones I haven't finished yet for various reasons:
A Vampyre Story
Fable (I lost it when I moved)
The Longest Journey (someone lent it to me recently)
Broken Sword: Shadow of the Templars (someone gave this to me as a DS game, I need to get the PC version and then play the second and third one)
Simon the Sorcerer (I can't seem to get into this one)

I'm sure there are others, if I think of them, I'll edit them in.

[Alcoremortis]

I have a very short list compared to everyone else:

Monkey Island II: LeChuck's Revenge

Aye, but it's a quality one.

I'd guess that the reason for that is that EcoQuest 2 suffered from the same problem as Space Quest V - namely never getting a CD version despite the previous game in the series getting one.

As to my adventure collection, I've listed it in other threads before.

You're right! I thought it was on a CD, but I just found mine, and they are discs.
