Black Mirror 2 Black Mirror 3 Book of Unwritten Tales Broken Sword: Circle of Blood Daemonica Dead Reefs Dracula Resurrection Gabriel Knight: Blood of the Sacred, Blood of the Damned Gabriel Knight: Sins of the Father King's Quest VI Legend of Kyrandia Nancy Drew: Ghost Dogs of Moon Lake Nancy Drew: Secret of Shadow Ranch Phantasmagoria Scratches Sherlock Holmes: The Awakened Shivers Tex Murphy: Overseer Tex Murphy: Pandora Directive Tex Murphy: Under a Killing Moon Thank you, flotsam and Chief. It's great fun to see these lists. I really wanted to include the two Arthur's Knights games, but they are hard to get running unless you have Windows 95/98 or can run them in a virtual machine (Virtual PC, VMWare, etc.), so I reluctantly left them off the list.

Hi BubbaJake, It would help Chief and flotsam if you could put the list in alphabetical order. Also, per the rules that flotsam listed: You cannot recommend a series. If you want to recommend all the Tex Murphy games, that will take 5 separate recommendations, one for each game. So, you also need to revise your choice of "all the Carol Reed mysteries." Thank you!

Hi all You can't keep a good Knight down. GK1 is pushing last years winner all the way at this stage, with Still Life just behind. Gogness no doubt helps, as does the quality of the original. Tex and Sherlock not too shabby either. TLJ, Broken Sword 1, GK3 and Black Mirror 2 also doing well. Corrosion is on the board and Isabelle isn't (yet).
