Here's mine: Amber: Journeys Beyond Carol Reed: The Colour of Murder Dark Fall Delaware St. John: The Seacliff Tragedy Gabriel Knight: Sins of the Fathers Gabriel Knight: The Beast Within Grim Fandango Longest Journey, The Museum of Broken Memories, The Myst Obsidian Return to Zork Riven Sanitarium Strange and Somewhat Sinister Tale of the House at Desert Bridge, The Syberia Tex Murphy: Overseer Voyage Zork Grand Inquisitor Zork Nemesis It was especially hard to choose just one of the serial games, especially Delaware St. John and Carol Reed. And I just realized I haven't played Hope Springs Eternal, since BFG doesn't have it yet. I need to go order it, I guess.

Here's my yearly contribution to the adventure game list of 2009. And thanks, flotsam, for making this last again Overclocked The Longest Journey (the first one) Syberia (the first one) Grim Fandango Sherlock Holmes: The Awakened Zork: Nemesis Shivers 2: Harvest of Souls Rhiannon - the curse of the four branches Broken Sword (the first one) Sinking Island Post Mortem Still Life Keepsake Runaway (the first one) Escape from Monkey Island Fahrenheit/Indigo Prophecy Agon- The Lost Sword of Toledo Gilbert Goodmate and the Mushroom of Phungoria The Experiment As you can probably see, this year, more modern games have made it to my list than last year, I think? This is because I've found that the state of adventure games really is getting better.
Adventure gaming is fun

Thank you for all your efforts with this! If you need collating help, please holler! BTW, in several cases (such as Agatha, Law & Order, Holmes) I could have listed more than one in the series, but worked to keep the list varied and to 20. Here we go:
Agatha Christie: And Then There Were None Black Mirror, The Broken Sword, The Circle of Blood (+ Wii & DS versions!) Ceville Colour of Murder, The Diamonds In The Rough Emerald City Confidential Grim Fandango Law & Order: Justice Is Served Longest Journey, The Lost Crown, The Outcry Rhiannon Sam & Max: Season One Secret Of Monkey Island, The Sherlock Holmes: The Awakened (remastered version) So Blonde Still Life Syberia Vampyre Story, A
I might well have also included the Phoenix Wright series for the DS, but felt you wanted PC. Thank you....

Hi all, My apologies - real life intervened! Its early days but Syberia already leads the way. Chasing hard are Syberia 2, Still Life and Black Mirror. New games that have started well include Sherlock v Jack the Ripper and Rhiannon. Nearly 200 games mentioned already and over 30 that weren't mentioned last year (including a couple I have never heard of). Keep em coming
Quantity has a quality all of its own
