Series:

- The Trilby series. Excellent series in all sorts: graphics, music, storyline.
- Ben Jordan. It gets better as it progresses. A somewhat weak end tho.
- Technobabylon. Very strong in all aspects, although the reach of the game is limited. Nevertheless, it delivers what promises.
- Blackwell series. Again, it gets more ambitious as it progresses; looking forward for its finale.

Single games:

- Cart life. Very innovative. Andrus won my affection almost instantly; sweet little guy.
- Gemini Rue: not a superb story but all aspects sorrounding the plot are great: music, gameplay, artwork.
- McCarthy Chronicles. Do part 2 is out yet? This game would great if so. Surprisingly good for a "part 1".
- All pigs deserve to burn in hell. The Kafka references won me hands down.

Maybe there's one on agsarchives.com, but the main page is under reconstruction. However, some download links I found still work. Is there a way to see the contents of archives?

Could you msg me a link? Thanks.

This is not an old game, but I cant find the link for it.

Cartlife.:confused:
It is spelled separately - "Cart Life": http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/site/games/game/1434/

I know. The link itself is dead on the author's website. In fact, I clicked on the link and the site itself doesn't seem to work. Someone should host that great game for safekeeping.

I don't think it's the link so much, his whole website is failing to respond atm.  May be a temporary glitch?

Last time I checked, months ago, the download link was down. Now the whole site is down. Maybe the author is not hosting it anymore.

Hello.

The game is Quantum Gate: No one dreams here. It uses a specific video emulator: Virtual Cinema. I believe it has to be mounted on an emulator, but I don't know which one. :/

By any cance does anyone have this game and got it to work?

Thanks

:shocked:

I found it! I mean, an user from Abandonia found it for me.

If anyone is intrigued, it's called Myth Master, from Carol Standley. Made in 1991.

:-D

You nailed it! Danke schon!

OUXX, it was a PC game. All the adventure games I played I did on a PC.

#11
It isn't. As I said, First Person View. You never see the character. And it is newer than SQ1.

I am now playing SQ1 EGA :P

I think the game is german.

It's not 3d by the way.

I posted in another thread that I am looking for a game. I am resigned to never find it. The last copy is probably lost.

But yet, I look for another. This one is based in space. It is in first person view. The player starts in a ship, and has to escape from it. There's noone on board. When the player get out, the ship is landed on a planet (before one can get out, theres a space suit that has to be worn). The player then goes to an alien building (I suspect its a bar). Later, one has to escape from the aliens. One has the abiity to see from top, on a schematichs kinda view; sometimes the aliens catch you and shot you.



Thanx

I know it's an old game. I used to play it years ago.

Yes, it may be a mash up of King Quest, it is very similar to it. The graphics are similar too.

When the game starts. The protagonist is walking by a wall. In the distance, you can see a castle (you have to climb the wall or something to reach it). If you keep walking left, you arrive to a tree that is overlooking the wall. If you keep walking left, you arrive to a ship. A small ship; kinda reminder of a fisherman's. It's not old, as the ship seems to have a motor.

BTW, can anyone point the link to go back to the normal interface? As I said earlier, all I can see is text, no images.

As I said, the graphics remind me of Space Quest 1 and KQ 1. The game it's old.

The protagonist is dressed in red.
#16
It's not a part of a saga. It's just a single game. At least I am sure of that. :P
#17
Nope. It isn't Maddog either.

I remember the wake up mechanism tho. heh

:(
#18
I checked some caps. It isn't TBC.

I think the protagonist of the game I am looking is dressed in red. The ship in the beach I mentioned looked fairly modern.

I have been looking or this quite a long time now.

Can't remember the name, only a few scenes.

- Old game, no mouse, only pointers to move and one must write comands. The graphics were close to Space Quest 1.
- There was a castle, maybe black, in the distance in one scene. There was a wall preventing the player from coming to it. Also, a tree.
- If you walk left from the castle, you arrive to a small beach, with a small ship. It looked like the ship could be abandoned, or maybe it was the player's. The ship looked like it had a small house on it.

If this thread don't go here, in this section, please move it to the correct section.

(Also, I haven't visited this webpage for a long time. It's confusing, since now it's all text and no pictures)

I loved the multiple references to Alfred Jarry, present in 1 and 2. It got somewhat lost in 3 and were non existant in 4. Im guessing the guionist was replaced.
