Title: Old Adventure Game Quest
Post by: Dr Lecter on Thu 26/10/2006 15:55:24
I have begun a quest to find the name of a game demo that I played over 10 years ago. I can't remember the name of the game but here's a description of what happens (as far as I can remember):

Firstly, I believe the game was an adventure game, point and click, but from and aerial point of view. You started in a hotel lobby, and had to get to the penthouse suite and for some reason kill the man staying there. So you had to get a room on the floor below the penthouse suite, go there, nick the fire axe, screw with the lift so it wouldn't move, climb on the roof of the lift and "open" the door with the axe.

Now, I know this is a pretty vague description, but if anyone can remember what this game was called, that would be awesome because I've wanted to get the full version of this game since I played it all those years ago but lost the demo and the name before I could. I had this same problem with Manic Mansion 2, it wasn't until I stumbled across a screenshot till I recognised it.

That would be Dreamweb (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dreamweb).

Wow, thats amazing, that's exactly the game I was looking for! The name doesn't ring a bell at all, but judging from some of the screenshots that's the game. Thanks loads.

Remember to download the manual/diary of a madman from abandonia/underdogs and read before you play. Enjoy.

Damn, it's a sweet game, heavy syntax controls, apart from that I just love it. Shame more adventure games aren't made in this style... *realizes that now he does Computer Science AGS may be considered work now*
