Was there ever a game where you play as three characters at a time (not maniac mansion)?

The Goblins 1, 2 & 3 and I have no mouth and I must scream.

Stickmen, if you imagine there's a third character.

Do you mean Adventure games, or just any computer game in general.

Well, the best video game I can remember in which you controlled 3 characters at a time, was the Lost Vikings (released 1993 - I had it on my old Amiga computer). They each had thier own abilities and needed to help each other in order to complete puzzles and levels:

It looks like it's now been remade and rereleased for the Game Boy Advanced:

  Anyways, 'twas a really kool little platformer type of game from what I remember of it.

As far a Adventure Game in which you controlled 3 characters other than Maniac Mansion.. Hmmm, well, I seem to recall some Adventure games in which, during gameplay, you might take over control of onother character, or some games let you select a character to play and the adventure and story-would unfold different as from thier perspective of things, but as an adventure game in which you could freely switch at anytime between 3 different characters, can't think of any right away.

Yes i can remember that one, was really nice. It has been released on the gba by blizzard i belive.They also made a sequal.But what i ment (as adventure games) is when the characters follow you around, cos i was thinking of making one with tree characters.

Didn't Goblins 2 have 2 giblins, and 3 have just one? I think the number of goblis got reduced each game. Anyway, the only game I can think of is DOTT. Try searching google for something like "adventure game 3 characters", you might find something.

edit: In fact, I came upon a game called Nippon Safes, Inc. which seems to have 3 controlled characters. The things you can dig up with google. :P

edit: Oh, so you mean a game where you play one character and two others follow you,or did I misunderstand?

I don't think there's been an adventure game where you have two other characters follow you.

DGMacphee

There have been lots of RPGs with characters that follow you around, like some of the Ultima games.

Well then if we expand the list there is a game called Freedom Fighters where you can have 12 following you!

Interesting. I don't really see how it could add to the game unless you were -really -creative. It'd have to have a really good plot to go with it, to make it really work, I think.

In that case, make a game with 13 CHARACTERS following you!! That'll show Freedom Fighters who's boss!!

Yup, that's true. Gobliiins had three goblins, Gobliins 2 had two, and Goblins 3 had just the one, as the "i"'s in every title suggest. :D

Can't think of an adventure game that had more than one character following you around though.

Who cares? Make an adventure game with 13 CHARACTERS following you to show Freedom Fighters who's boss anyway! You'll be, like, AGS Champion El Supremo!

Hey i made a character chart:
0-1: Normal adventure
1-3: Great adventure game
3-12: You will be known as the grand puba of characters
12-999999999: You will be arrested for cousing a fatal, hard disk breaking crash on every computer that plays it.
99999999999-Infinity: Will couse an irreversal time change on all the planets that exist.
Infinity-infinity+1: All humans will be trapped in adventure games, while all adventure game characters will be free to torture the people by making them "use" the fat guy.
