Links to AGS games not in the database

Unfortunately, this game is still in production, if I understand correctly.

That's right, Godzillu have resumed the project in 2023
(maybe it's too soon  I got caught up in the passion and actually lost track of the thread)

[Crimson Wizard]

As an update to this:

I am not 100%, but the walking and some details look very agsy.

The game is not available yet - and the rest is too french for me to understand 

According to this: https://www.rom-game.fr/news/4772-Gobliiins+5.html there is currently a fundraiser to raise 3000 Euros to complete the game. It's indeed made in AGS.

Gobliiins 5 have been released some time ago. It's made in AGS, and still not in database, so I guess this matches this topic.

Semi new game from itch.io

Jaro by Rakkimaru
https://rekkimaru.itch.io/jaro
a 15yo demo, in polish.

'Jaro' is a demo adventure game that was inspired by classic point and click games, and to a large extent by the game 'Teenagent'.

I think that an old game like this, that was only in the owner HDD, should be advertised to the fans 



I kept these links in my pockets for some time

Snow Queen: After The Apocalypse by Kastchey
https://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/forums/index.php?msg=522687
https://www.abandonsocios.org/wiki/Snow_Queen:_After_the_Apocalypse

[heltenjon]

Back in August 2016, the MAGS theme was "Distance no object", and the games needed to include monkeys and a giant banana, among other things. Rango is a nice game with fiendish minigames that was never added to the database, but is on the archive.

Beyond Dream and Time
for cat lovers

This is now added to the database.

G. Ramirez - The Missing Hat
A Room Escape disguised as P&C
may be finished in <2min

I played this, and found it charming. Nice, feel-good story with a cool bass jazz track.

EDIT 09/12/2023
DeckHex
Not an adventure, not a puzzle game
Just a story

I think it qualifies as a game, though the two puzzles are rather easy. So it's short, but as everything from Digital Mosaic, it's high quality. The voice acting is great! I liked this a lot.

EDIT 10/12/2023
Ten Weeks

Ten Weeks is an experimental point & click game about memories

This was quite an emotional experience, and a glimpse into what it could be like to not remember or being able to trust your memories. The game is worth playing a couple of times to uncover more details. Definitely worth a look if you like experimental games or stories exploring the psyche.

[heltenjon]

In MAGS October 2016, Cat and Raeff's entry is not in the database, but on the archive: CheKKen. This is a short prototype/demo of a mix of chess and Tekken. (The theme was "Genre Shift".) It's a 2-player game, so hit those keys and beat your friend into the ground.

MAGS September 2007 had the theme "Innovation", and saw seven entries, three of which are not in the database:

OneDollar's Recollection, which is already featured in an earlier post in this thread. I still can't say too much about it without spoiling it.

Jojoboy's Serum. In this game you have to try to contain a zombie plague. There are random infected, so the game is not the same each play, and it's pretty hard.

Radiant's Pixel Hunt. (Note that there are several games with this or very similar titles.) This is a shooting game, where you hunt...pixels. While they yell insults at you.  Good for a laugh.

Space Misadventures
it's a short game

Here's another NSFW game. This one with a bit more graphic nudity. No cheesecake, Ponch. Other than that, it's set in space, and the horny space captain has to fix her faulty spaceship. It's well made, but won't be to everyone's taste.
EDIT: This game turned out to be extremely explicit, with tentacles and whatnot. Far out of my comfort zone. Just warning you about what this is.

Endacopia
the animations of this game are spectacular: a very nice little gem

This one was incredible! It's like playing a cartoon. Highly recommended! (Though one of the sequences was so hard, I had to use dirty tricks to complete the demo.)

[heltenjon]

Some of the modules have demo games. Here is the PanoRama Demo. This is a room with some objects and a character in it, made for showing the module. The game ends/quits when you walk out the door, so I guess it's a very easy escape room game...

Alys vs the Phantom Feline Foe is a NSFW game. It's a reworking of Alice in Wonderland where the magic cat kidnaps Alys because he wants her to be his sex slave. And it gets worse from there. I mean, the first puzzle involves watering a plant with no external water sources. You have been warned.

Buloght's Knightsquire is a very good game with Gobliins-like gameplay involving switching control between the knight and his squire. This has a Completed Game Announcement thread in the forum, but never made it into the database. Highly recommended!

Amberfish Arts' Indiana Jones: The Fate of Atlantis II project was never finished, and  what's released here are the four demos from the project. In case you have trouble running them, Arj0n tells you how in This post.

Another fan game is Monkey Island 2.5: The Prisoner of Monkey Island. This is in Italian only and picks up where MI2 ended.

Yet another that also starts in the same spot, is Monkey Island: Illusion. This one is partly translated into English, but some of it is still in the original French. The short game/demo is winnable, but there is a fatal bug early on that crashes the game if you click on a hatch to go below deck on a pirate ship. If you walk past the hatch, you will go below deck with no error, triggering the active region. I guess all of these games are for fans craving a small taste of what once was.

Desert Miner

This is a short game with one puzzle. It looks like the developer abandoned AGS and made the sequel and other games using other engines.

boite, La

This is a cute game about a cat who wants to look into a box. It's French only, and my phone translator didn't recognize the font, but enough of the story is visual for me to play it through to the end despite not understanding the text. I liked how it looked, but the French speaking players will get more out of this than I did.

City That Drowned, The

This is a demo or prototype that plays like a walking simulator. I didn't find much to do except uncovering clues to the story. The atmosphere and story were interesting, though. I don't think the demo has a scripted ending. At least I couldn't find it.

Bubby Kills God by DiggingUpGraves
https://diggingupgraves.itch.io/bubby-kills-god

This is my first game made with AGS. It's mostly just a test to learn the various systems and mess around a bit, don't expect quality.
The game itself is about a little blob called 'Bubby' who wishes to kill God. Why? Play and find out!

Played for a while, found only 1 puzzle involving inventory. Then dropped it...

I downloaded and played RON: Purity of the Surf (Archive link), RoN Homepage link here, to help a guy out in the hint section. Turned out I had not played the game before, perhaps because it never made its way into the database. It's made by Dave Gilbert himself, and it's a great game which I can highly recommend.

The prototype RON Beach Party could be worth checking out for those interested in how the game was developed. This prototype later turned into the full game Purity of the Surf.

In addition, the RON Beach Party Demo is also at this page along with several other RON Demos:
Time Out Trailer (in the database)
Stuck at Home Trailer (not in the database, though the full game is)
Fifth Anniversary Promotional Trailer (not in db)
Simon, the Sorceror's Brother Teaser Trailer (not in db)

I played it...and not quality is about right. The game seems to be purposely made to be as offensive as possible. Sure, you go to

Spoiler

"Personal Hell" and chop off a guy's genitals with an axe and carry the chopped off penis as an inventory item

[close]

. To say it's not everyone's taste would be an understatement. But ok, that's on purpose. The game also suffers from first game syndrome with bugs turning the game into an unwinnable state if you do things in the wrong order. I do think some of the drawings were good, though. The talent is there, but unrefined.

[TheTMD]

From about 2 months I have started checking regularly itch.io and other sites, as on more than one occasion I have 'arrived' late at the game page and discovered that the author has blocked the download, closed the page or anything else, and not even with the wayback machine is often possible to recover the game
that's why I'm providing several links to the 'usual' distribution sites. And here are some others

Penguincy by Morfy

[heltenjon]

Most of the Reality-on-the-Norm games are not in the database. At RoN's own gamepages there are 84 titles plus demos and specials. At the RoN collection on the archive, there are 124 titles, some of which are different versions of the same game.

EDIT: Another place on the archive to download all the RoN games is https://archive.org/details/reality-in-the-norm-complete , which includes all released before January 2023.

Likewise, only a few of the Maniac Mansion Mania games are in the database, while the bulk of the 100+ short games usually are available at HTTP://www.maniac-mansion-mania.com At the time of writing, the site seems to be down, though.

Another game by Leafthief is A Heart Between Parts, which finds us playing the role of Frankenstein's Bride. She's been locked in the cellar, and has to escape. Yes, it's an escape game. Well made and fun, with proper old English in the dialogues.

Ben304 made PISS as a part of the Summerbatch 2012. It's high quality, as expected. Don't be fooled by the name of the game. 

Another well-known Ben, Ben Yahtzee Croshaw, made the demo Lee and Perrin: Paranormality, which was abandoned in favour of other projects.

Earth AD: Low Estate by Uma
https://umabreakdown.itch.io/earth-ad-low-estate

Quite alternative storytelling in this one. It's a science fiction dystopia story concentrating on storytelling. The puzzles mainly consist of finding the triggers for advancing the story, which I liked, especially the story narrated by the moon. (It makes sense in the context.)

Prodigal

This is a game drawing heavily on Vampire: The Masquerade lore. It's wordy and may be a bit off-putting to non-fans. That said, the game is well done and I found much to like here. If you don't find vampires fascinating, you may be a bit at odds with the game's central premise, though.

Bruises

This is another mood piece from Leafthief. Our heroine wants to skateboard again. Why shouldn't she? The reasons become clear soon enough. Sad, yet hopeful game driven mostly by conversation, but there are also other puzzles, including some fiendishly difficult jigsaws.

Vexation Island The Game

Seriously, google this and read what this is a gamification of first. Played on its own, this is a prank and a very bad game. I can't recommend this. Maybe to art lovers who don't play games.

Spoiler

The movie by the same name goes in a loop. And so does this game. It's all slow walking which will eventually get you nowhere.

[close]

Nice music and waves, though.

Wormhole - Ch.1 - Remake

All in Spanish. This is a short escape the room game. There are lots of jokes, most of which were lost on me because I only understand very basic Spanish. Fully voiced, beautiful graphics (the creator makes comics) and clearly great stuff for our Spanish-speaking members.

Animal Agency

So, here's another game by Uma. This one is even more alternative, telling the story of dreaming/sleeping next to animals and avoiding a breakdown. I think. It's more of an art project than a game, funded by FACT Liverpool. I guess this may appeal to people into introspection or to alternative ways of telling a story, or perhaps light symbolism. I must admit to being a little bored.

Escape the brothel

This is an easy escape the room game. It comes in two versions, one probably made while quite young, and one with updated graphics 10 years later. Not really offensive, despite the settings, but not really worth the time playing either, except for completionists. A few minutes playtime.

[heltenjon]

I found some games in Russian:
4 (or maybe 4 seconds) is a sort of investigation game where the player examines what looks like a crime scene. I tried to play with a phone thanslator, but gave up, at least for now.

Graydale demo uses graphics and the world of the Fallout games. This demo has three locations (I think). Russian language, and I didn't understand much.

Buhf also uses Russian language, but this one has graphical puzzles, at least in the start. I played it for a bit, and it felt more like a puzzle game than an adventure game.

On Steam, there are some commercial games: Maggie's Apartment looks like a short game set in one room, which has got very high praise in the comments. Released in 2017 by Anatola Howard and Duncan Cross.

Another Steam AGS game is Outside the Box, which is a NSFW game. Screenshots indicate furry animal-people. The people behind this call themselves "The Circle Jerk(s)". 

A free Steam AGS game is This Game Might Improve Your Memory, which totes itself as one part memory techniques and one part horror game.

Still on Steam, I found The Last Day of Adolf, which has the player play out Adolf Hitler's last day. I doubt this is worth the asking price.

And Gecky the Deenosaur...and a long, silly title, looks even worse. It's tagged AGS, but I'm not sure, and I'm not paying to find out either.

Cabin Trouble, by -BigDaniel-
https://www.adventure-treff.de/forum/topic/12215
the download link in the first post is still working, and so is the game

This looks like a great short game. German language only, and quite hard. I haven't finished it yet...may need help from our German friends who played it years ago. The player starts out tied to a chair in a small cabin where there is a bomb on a timer. Excellent animation and voice work.

Galaxia Quest, from the same author
https://www.abandonsocios.org/wiki/Galaxia_Quest
https://www.adventure-treff.de/forum/topic/9413
http://www.freegame.cz/hry-ke-stazeni/zdarma/adventury/galaxia-quest/14676
The last site have a working link: it's the big red button "stàhnout hru"

This is a quite long game, and I liked it a lot. A bit easier than the one above, but there is some pixel hunting required. This is a funny space adventure that doesn't take itself seriously at all. Satisfying story and puzzles, as long as you take it in stride. No sound, German language only.

Penguincy by Morfy
https://morfy.itch.io/penguincy

The author wanted to add this to the database, but so far, there is only a Completeted game announcement thread. My own comment was:

This was so much fun! Recommended! The game has cute penguins with different personalities, and puzzles that largely depend on you finding out what makes them tick.

Wasko the cleaner

Spanish language only. This game starts as one thing, then turns into some other things. Best experienced yourself. Basic Spanish knowledge is a plus, but I guess you can play through it without knowing the language, too. Very weird game.

[heltenjon]

More games from Steam tagged AGS:

Blackwell Convergence was for some reason never added to the database, even though the other games in the series are present there.

The Adventures of the Black Hawk was released in February, and even has a Completed Game Announcement thread, but it's not added to the database yet.

Gobyworld is available for free on Steam and on itch.io. It was also announced in our forums in a Completed game announcement thread, but not added to the database. This is an odd game where you play the part of a piece of gum, swallowed by mistake, that has to escape a human body. Including a sort of Wordle-puzzle and a small pink dog that follows you around. Fun one!

Projector Face is cheap on Steam. It was very well received in its Completed Game Announcement thread back in 2016.

Onironauta is in Italian only. It's available on itch.io and Steam. It looks like a comedy game. Released in 2017.

NSFWare is on Steam, too, and on Itch.io and on the archive. Made by Pierre Corbinais for the "Make Something Horrible Jam 2018". He describes it as "WarioWare meets Pornhub. NSFWare is a colorful sex-positive porn game." Despite having several other games in the database, this one was never added. The archive version is free...

Remember Pedro's Adventures in Spanish? Well, it was released in other languages, too. Peter's Adventures in English and Pierre's Adventures in French. This is a long and truly excellent game in its own right, niftly teaching you languages.

Now that Ghostlady is updating her old games, why not point to them? Haunting at Cliffhouse is on Steam. Intrigue at Oldhaven Plantation looks like it may be bought at mysterymanor.net (haven't tried) while The Hauntings of Mystery Manor, the first in the series, is free from the same site.

Wadjet Eye's Puzzle Bots from 2010 seems to never have been added to the database either. I guess I don't need to tell you it's a good game? Completed Game Announcement thread here.

Proximity Games have several games in the database. They have some games on Steam that are tagged AGS, but it's not easy to say for sure. ( @proximity - if you see this, perhaps you could comment? ) These include Small Sister (a Big Brother game/parody), Sevgilim olur musun?, which is Turkish for "Would you be my lover?" (The English demo for this has an entry in the database, but seems to be lost.) and the post-apocalyptic survival games Insectophobia and Wolf Territory.

Phoenix Tales looks like a game inspired by Quest for Glory. It has a  Completed Game Announcement thread in the forums, dating back to 2019, but was never added to the database. Also available on itch.io.

The Last Escape of Yeti looks like a hand-drawn game where you control the Yeti. It looks more like an action game than an adventure game.

[heltenjon]

...and even more games from Steam that are tagged AGS. I cannot always know for sure if they are tagged by mistake, so corrections or comments are welcome.

Lost in the Tomb looks like a Sokoban clone.

Ghostman: The Council Calamity seems to be a space comedy with rudimentary graphics. I think perhaps the author has used AGS for some smaller or unfinished projects, as well. Will edit this post when I have checked his itch.io content in more detail.

EDIT: Yup, on his itch.io page we can find two unfinished projects that are virtually unplayable, called Murder on the Starlight Express Demo and Ghostman (probably a prototype). I made them run using a copied acwin.exe file. Absolutely unrecommended unless you want everything someone has put out there made with AGS in your collection.

The Antidote is a game where the player is hallucinating and tries to find the antidote. That means that normal logic won't apply much, according to the comments. The game has a Completed game announcement thread in our forums.

Space Raven Quest - Tiny Planet seems to be a short point and click with mature references in the dialogue and descriptions.

Another game with NSFW content is The Secret of FYNDEMOOR Park. This game also has an entry on Abandonsocios, linking to Steam.

Al Emmo: Postcards from Anozira is a hidden object game using the characters from the Al Emmo adventure game. The Completed gane announcement thread is on the forums.

Weed Runner is an adventure game that has the player grow and sell drugs.

The Last Pirate Adventure: Drake's Treasure is a pirate adventure game, of course.

[heltenjon]

@Blackthorne and the others at Infamous Quests made a one-screen tribute game to Stranger Things. They got the vibes right! The Completed Game Announcement thread is here.

Developer Theo Brochet (aka Rural_walker) https://rural-walker.itch.io/ released several short games which are no longer available on itch.io.

The only one I could find elsewhere is Le Lac https://www.moddb.com/games/le-lac

I copied this from the GAMESEEK thread in order to have the working link for Le Lac here. This is a visual poem of sorts, or perhaps a poetic walking simulator. The player walks along a beautiful landscape, while lines from the titular poem appear along the way. Beautiful and relaxing, but all the player does, is clicking to keep walking forwards. The game aspect of it is very limited, in other words, but it works as an interactive animation, interpreting the poem. (Which is in French, but there are translations easily available.)

It's like a room escape, but with point & click interface

This one is in Italian only, and it's quite wordy, especially in the dialogues. I played it with a phone translator and escaped. I doubt I would have managed without reading the clues.

Putt-Putt Saves The Stew

This game is designed by a child 4 1/2 years old, it says. It's very charming! Kid's drawings and voice makes it hard not to smile when you see this. I suspect there is a bug somewhere, as I and my kids couldn't finish it on our first go, but it made my day anyway.

Kidnapper Escape - room escape

If not for the blue cups in the files and the setup program, I wouldn't have thought this was made with AGS. It's a short escape the room game, 1.2 Gb of hard disk space and five minutes playtime.

Elvves

Soundless Gobliins-type game, albeit a lot easier. The player has to make a strong elf and a clever elf work together to get Santa ready for Christmas.
