Gabriel Knight 2
I'll never pass even Chapter 1. Why? Because of the pixelhunting. And the crazy forced order of doing things occasionaly. And that there is no excitement. And the many restrictions. And the Chapter 1...

My favorite games of all time
Probably. Recently I thought some games were fun playing them through once, but I never ever want to go back to them. So can they be considered favourites? Should they be preserved?
Some got patched...

Oh, man. If there ever was a horror-game, this is it.
This thing is disturbing as F, so it's not for kids, or the faint of hearts. You wanna know how it is, look up its trailer.
Anyway, it is using...

Flight of the Amazon Queen
This is a very easy adventure game - not counting the frustrating parts, like:
- get more bananas! Nothing indicates how many banana you'll need, or will respawn.
- move that metric ton sarcofagus!...

This is an interresting one, though I wonder when it'll become at least a bit of a challenge.
So you roam around on a fixed map (no procedural generation), in a combat-system very much like Binding...

Not the hardest game per se, but shouldn't be your first either, because the puzzles, stuff to do and humour is a bit on the abstract side already.
