Top Three Favorite Adventures

[PirateKingChris]

...King's Quest games not included

Mine I think are :
1) Gabriel Knight: Sins of the Fathers (used to scare my pants off..its still creeepy to play...when I can find it...I think it's been missing at least 2 years)
2) The Curse of Monkey Island (I played it before MI1 and 2 and also adore the art style and atmosphere)
3) Grim Fandango (Most original game I've ever played)

EDIT: I guess I should have put this in the Adventure Game forum...Duh.

Oooh, that's hard, to pick only three. But I'd think I'd go with those three, and than maybe Longest Journey if I had a fourth.

, adventure games!

1) Monkey Island II
2) Legend of Kyrandia Book One
3) Freddy Pharkas: Frontier Pharmacist

1. Laura bow II: the Dagger of Amon Ra
2. Myst
3. 5 Days a Stranger

Sadly, I haven't played that many apart from King's Quest. I've been dying to try out Monkey Island.

[PirateKingChris]

You REALLY need to play the first 3 Monkey Islands...You can skip the fourth though 

[tessspoon]

Agreed. Those are classic. The first three anyway. I found the fourth one to be worth playing if you really like the series, but definitely not as good.

[PirateKingChris]

Agreed. I mostly dislike the plot of EMI and several of the puzzles STINK. Die Monkey Combat, Die.

I really liked the first Monkey Island but thought the sequels that I have played were not as good.

[tessspoon]

I'm with PK about MI, I played the third one before the first two as well and like the atmosphere and style of it. Plus it has Murray! He's probably my favorite sidekick character, along with Glotttis.

[PirateKingChris]

Hehe I love Murray and Glottis!

[tessspoon]

I have quotes from both of them on my adventure game quotes poster that I will eventually post a picture of whenever we get the digital camera working again and I get back to school, which should be Tuesday.

This is kinda sad, because I love Adventure Games, but sadly I haven't played many of them other than Kings Quest. So I really only have two.

1. Quest for Glory 4 Shadows of Darkness.
and
2. Quest for Glory 5 Dragon Fire.

EDIT: Just remembered one of other games I played, its called Torens Passage it was pretty fun. Good story, interesting characters and cool puzzles. So I guess thats my third favorite

The more people post, the more I realize how many adventure games of mine are missing .....I know I'm missing Torin's Passage and Gabriel Knight 1 for example....but there are definately others.

Before I forget, anyone who hasn't played Conquest of the Longbow(the Sierra Robin Hood adventure) look it up NOW....I know many people here will love it! I know I do:)

Quest for Glory IV

Yeah, that game was great. I was horrible at it, but it was fun nonetheless. I really loved dressing up as a monk.

Gabriel Knight: Sins of the Fathers
Escape from Monkey Island
Monkey Island 2: Lechuck's revenge

[PirateKingChris]

Wow, no offense, but how many adventures have you played? Escape from Monkey Island is in your top three?! For that matter, you like it more than 1 or 3?! That boggles my mind

[Deloria]

Quest for Glory IV
Conquests of Camelot
Monkey Island III

*would like to add KQVI to her list but feels unable to kick any of the three off of it*

[Petra Rocks]

Since I can only recall playing three, I can't say much.
