Ideas for Adventure Games

[Alaskaban]

I was wondering if anyone could give me an idea for an adventure game. It seems that whenever I try to do stuff by my self without any Idea, I end up quitting on the project. But when someone gives me an Idea, The project ends up finished and good. I find that this is usually the case when I draw pictures.

In that case, I would recommend a wizard be present.

[elegantmechanic]

The player character is a dying king without an heir. He must try to keep himself alive long enough to find a worthy heir among his subjects.

[Alaskaban]

What if,rather than a king, you play as a peasant who has to compete in a contest to become the heir?

Excellent!

The wizard could submit a young man to compete on his behalf.

[Alaskaban]

What should the title be?

[Snarky]

Throbbing Goblin Chronicles

You'd already have ensured yourself one player.

[Trapezoid]

- You play the teacher on a Magic Schoolbus-knockoff, going on an educational adventure inside the human body. However, the person they're inside is MURDERED, and as bodily functions shut down, you and the class must solve the mystery... from WITHIN! The ultimate autopsy!

- You play a haunted suit of armor which comes to life to seek the Holy Grail, which is lost in storage somewhere in the museum you call home. Store items inside your empty armor body. Frighten off night watchmen and paranormal investigators.

- You play a "professional organizer" on an episode of TLC's Hoarding: Buried Alive. While taping an episode, you discover that that a Lost Treasure may be hidden in the hoarded home of the person you're trying to help. You must figure out how to find the treasure without being discovered by the hoarder, their therapist, or the TV crew. An ethically troubling quest.

- We need to destroy the moon, for reasons never specified.

- A talking cat battles discrimination in the world of high powered finance.

- A pregnant woman gives birth... to a clue??

- On the brink of a nuclear crisis, the President of the United States finds a secret tunnel in the White House which leads to OvalSpace-- a transdimensional office out of time, where all Presidents, past and future, can meet.
However, when a maniacal, reptilian shape-shifting President from the year 2469 escapes into the present, aiming to parlay the nuclear threat into a total dictatorship, the current President must assemble an all-star team of Presidents to stop him.

- Die Hard in a pyramid

- That's all I got

I have officcialy started the game. I'm going with the peasant that has to compete to become the heir, for the king is dying. I am calling the game King Chronicles. Here is a picture of the peasant named Harold.

So perhaps Harold has to find a magic mirror, chest, and shield for the dying king, and if he successfully finds them he will be the next king...

Lovecraft Adventure. A man searches an old castle and goes down and down into an underworld.
He discovers the old Gods.

Harold battles not only foes of evil nature but also his sexual preferences. He is told by an elder that he must find the Mirror of Truth and once he gets there the mirror jokes about his skirt.
