Well what a choice!! Longest Journey (must be tops) Beyond Atlantis (Atlantis2) Feeble files (for fun) Egypt 2 Heliopolis Blackstone chronicles Monkey Island 3 DOTT Xanth - oldie but goodie! GK2 Faust- seven games of the soul Broken sword 1 Full Throttle Crystal Key Lighthouse And of course the Neverhood! Just wait until next year..... I have a stack to play, loads of scrummy games but if anything can top TLJ I will be impressed.

These are all games I recommend. I prefer games that don't require you to use a walkthru. If the game is too hard I lose interest. Here goes:Legend of Kyrandia#1, Gabriel Knight#2,The Longest Journey, Kings Quest Chapter#7,DOTT, Simon the Sorcerer and Simon the Sorcerer#2,Circle of Blood,Monkey Island#1,2&3,Discworld and Discworld#2,Grim Fandango,and Sanitarium.

Just look at all are list's of games older games are the best we've play, The newer one's are not up to standed, graphic's maybe, not the story line or game play. I think that's telling us something.
1 Legend of Kyrandia 2 2 Lara Bow Dagger of RA 3 The Dig 4 Gabriel Knight 1 5 Star Trek A Final Unity 6 Sherlock Holme's Rose Tatoo 7 Tex Under a Killing Moon 8 Timelaps 9 Black Dahlia 10 Riddle of Master Lu 11 King's Quest 7 12 Star Trek Elite Force 13 Titanic Lost in Time 14 Blade Runner 15 Heaven's Dawn
