Question: Best adventure game you have bought?

[Mega]

Adventure games are a genre that have all but disappeared from shop shelves and yet most have played one or more at some time or other.

I started with "The Hobbit" which came out on my trusty ZX Spectrum way back in the early 80's

Anyway, the best one I can remember playing is "Bladerunner" by Westwood studios.

It came on a massive (for the time) 5 CD's and if you are familiar with the film you play a futuristic cop trying to solve a crime in the Bladerunner universe - you dont play as Deckard.

Depending on which clues you discover and the decisions you make, you can get a very different ending each time you play - I think there are as many as 10 different endings.

So, which is/was your favourite?

Back in the day ...anything by Scott Adams (the Godfather of computer gaming !- Adventure International)
I was running a Beeb back then, favourite was Pirate Adventure.
Also the Level 9 games were hellish tricky ..I remember Snowball being a impossible

(I did play Sphinx adventure through the night & not finish it ..pesky axe dwarf)

Oh yes I played a few of those, Spiderman, Hulk and Waxworks were amongst them.

I think ill have to go with Legend of Zelda to NES, if consol games count
At the time when i got it ive never played anything like it, was totally cought up for weeks, the feeling about it was great as well as nice music, the zelda song is still my fav.

All adventure games count, I didnt play that one, but had a blast on the Snes version.

I bought Fable 2 i thought it was pretty good. I beat it quite fast thought so that doesnt really help too much . Over all the graphics and everything were stellar.

I love Adventure Quest...its a fully browser based Flash-animated RPG that you can play when you are on your lunchbreak, when the big game servers go down, or even for hours every day!
