Hey there--

I got lured to the casual gaming side for awhile, so I've been away from the adventure since October 2006. I've got an extensive collection, but I haven't kept up on the newer adventure games that have come out in the last year or so. I think the last games I bought were Dreamfall and Tunguska.

I like pretty much all adventure games, except for ones that have a lot of action in them. (I stink at action sequences, hence probably why I'm scared to play Dreamfall) smile

Outside of Lost Crown, Culpa Innata and Rhem 3, what other adventure games have I missed that I need to add to my collection. (The collection goes clear back to Zork days.. I am so bad.)

Thanks for your help! smile

Nikki don't avoid Dreamfall because of any of the action sequences. None of them were dreadful and if you get stuck, we might have a saved game for you.

Jenny100/Phoebe,
Thanks for the recommendations. I'll have to check those out. I've played Ghosts in the Sheet, both Dark Falls,Scratches and Barrow Hill. I especially liked the Dark Falls and Barrow Hill. Thanks again!

Texaslady, you talked me into it. I'll give Dreamfall a shot. I should anyway since I bought a completely new system for no other reason than to play it. smile That was before I heard that it had a lot of action in it. I may have to download a walkthrough before I start. smile

Get the w/t by all means if you think you need it. I liked the game as a whole.

Nikki -- if you go to the reviews page, you'll see a listing of many of the most recent game in the "Newest" column. All of these are adventure games except for Elder Scrolls: Oblivion.

You could also look at the Latest Game Releases page for more ideas.

Thanks Rushes! I'll check those out, too.

Becky.. Thank you as well. I was looking at those pages to give me an idea of what I'd missed, but these seemed to be within the last 6-7 months and I knew I'd missed some beyond that.

Thanks everyone. i have lots to look at now. I'm going to have to find a new hidding space with all the games I'm going to buy to hide them from the hubby. smile
