What Would You Bring on an Adventure Game?

[KatieHal]

So let's say you know ahead of time, somehow, that you're going to have an Adventure. How would you prepare? What would you pack? What essential items do you need to have on your person before departing?

[Shen555]

A pocket knife, a rope and for extra zaniness a couple paper clips!

[Delling]

cellphone, rope, Swiss army knife, flashlight

Depending on how much time I had or how much I knew I could carry with me, a change of clothes... oh, and wallet if I thought money would be useful wherever the hypothetical adventure is taking place.

[snabbott]

Moldy cheese, obviously.

[Bludshot]

Money, not even that much, but it is better than going in broke.  Not every pawn shop is going to let you trade in knick knacks.

[GrahamRocks!]

^ Really?  I've never been in a pawn shop, so I didn't know that.

[Rosella]

I believe pawn shops usually give money for things and things for money, so you can sort of trade stuff, but not in a 1-to-1 sort of way that Alex did.

And I'd definitely bring rope and a knife of some sort. Probably some sort of food as well, in case I end up starving in the mountains or needing to pie a Yeti.

[Bludshot]

You forgot a thingy that plugs into electrical outlets that, when charged, turn people into babies.

Never know when you might need a thingy that plugs into electrical outlets that, when charged, turn people into babies.

[Rosella]

Mmm, sandwich potions.

[KatieHal]

That's a rather exhaustive list!

haha, and yes, I never leave home without one of those, Bludshot.

[GrahamRocks!]

What's a sandwich potion? (What's A Paladin?)

Clearly, the alternate solution to dealing with Malicia is to use the Gopher Repellant.

What's a sandwich potion? (What's A Paladin?)

A sandwich potion is a potion that produces a cheese sandwich when used. (The Paladin is your Pal.)

[drusain]

Grog. Lots of it.

[crayauchtin]

I've never played an adventure game where I didn't, at one point or another, think "Gosh, if only I had a shovel" or "Gosh, if only I had magic rope"

So those are my two MUST HAVES.

[Bludshot]

Grog. Lots of it.

And by extension, mugs.  Lots of them.

[LadyTerra]

Knife, rope, backpack, first aid kit, slingshot, hand mirror, and a bucket.

[Rikacmikac]

A backpack and a hintbook. 

[Deloria]

A backpack and a hintbook. 

Something capable of keeping Slenderman restrained and unconscious.

[kyranthia]

Well, I think a magic bag that can hold a lot of stuff is definitely needed.
