This is by far one of the most complicated questions ever.

I would have to say that all the games had their own special appeal.
Lets face it, everybody likes something else, and thats just the way
we are we love different things cause it just appealed more to us
for some reason.

Mine would be;
indiana jones : Wow
Full Throtlle : Kick ass
Day of the tentacle : Wacked

truely I can say i enjoyed most of the adventure games!

Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade.
It was my first adventure game on Amiga, and now I enjoy playing it again on PC.

QFG definitely and also Indy werent bad, but QFG is my top 1 choice

Hey! I just discovered this:

http://www.4webgames.com/consoleapps/

If you scroll to the bottom there is a list of all the old INFOCOM games that you can play as web applets, including all the Zorks, Wishbringer, Trinity, Lurking Horror, Hitchhiker's guide... etc. Sadly missing is Leather Godesses of Phobos :(

Best moment ever in an interactive fiction game: When you first meet the Implementors in Beyond Zork, one of them says, "Isn't this the feeb who said X a couple moves ago?" where X equals your worst typo of the game. Hah! Good stuff, good times...

Well the best ever:
Grim Fandango, the sound, graphics, character, humour was excellent. Also the logic required for it, made it an easy adventure game as well, didn't really get stuck once.

Secondly, Quest for glory, yup I'm aware that it asn't pure adventure (with the RPG aspect also included.) To be able to wait for nightfall, and then break into a house, only to loot it all!!! hahaha im so evil!

Kings Quest VI is unquestionably at the top for me.

Second place would be KQV, and then SQIV.

Wretched

... is being alive. Shame about the final cut scene though.

Boblebad

Without doubt...

Gabriel Knight - Sins of the Fathers.
I was so caught up in that game, just listening to the music from it bring back lots of happy memories.

Runner-up has to be: Robin Hood & The Conquests of the Longbow!

SQ3 and GK.
KQ6 was also a very good adventure game.
I never forget a face, but in your case I'll be glad to make an exception.

this is how it would go for me so far.

1. monkey island 1&2
2. 5 days a stranger
3. seven days a skeptic
4. a couple of other adventure games

PantaGorian

All Space Quest parts
All Larry games,
Full Throttle
Indy TLC, and Indy FOA ( Young sentement )
Day of the Tentacle
ALL monkey islands
Grim Fadango..

etc etc.  LOVE LUCASARTS P&C ADVENTURES!!


Anyone know sum REALLY un commercial P&C adventures??

AlbinoPanther

Monkey island 1 for everything

Syberia for story

Hero quest (quest for gLory 1) for memories of playing it with my brother

DOTT cause my grirlfriend played it and love it

Black Mirror cause this is a first game that we enjoyed after a long time (2 years) of not playing games.

And DISCWORLD 1 because we love Pratchet books

ManicMatt

Excuse me if I did this already...?

1. Monkey Island 2,3,4
2. Broken sword 1,2
3. Flight of the amazon queen
4. indy: Fate of atlantis
5. Still life

(BTW, due to not having a PC for millions of years(but an amiga back then), I have yet to play sam n max, DOTT, The dig, gabriel knight and full throttle.)

Manic,  I find it odd that you like all Monkey Islands except for Secret.

ManicMatt

It was alright, but not only did I play 2 first, (thus increasing my expectations) but I didn't like the constant walking back and forth through the same locations over and over. (At the time.)

So in short, not one of my fave adventure games of all time. See?

i k a r i

CURSE OF ECHANTIA!!!!



omg just joking! xP


Day of the tentacle is the best AG ever made...yep..another one who thinks that..
QuoteWell, one think is not liking him, and the other is making humour of the retarder people!
Nacho speaking of Bush.

Myst IV: Revelation is a very beautiful adventure game and definitely on my top 10.
