Default Space Quest

Space Quest's no good when compared to King's Quest?

Any good recommendation for something else? :embarassed:
by the look on your taste i think you would definitely like legends of kyrandia (1), king's quest 6 -downloadable at abandonia. and if you want something from the newer titles, go for the longest journey

Yes, I've also played both Longest Journey games. The first one is one of my most favorite games ever.

Never played the King's quest, will follow your advice. Just tell me - is a necessity to play the first King's Quest games (e.g. some of the jokes aren't understandable in Monkey Island if you haven't played the first games), or should I run for 6 at once?

well each part continues a new generation of the kings and princes, but i think you will be able to understand it without playing previous ones

I agree with King's Quest 6, very good game. You do not need prior knowledge of the series to jump in and play.

Also recommend Sam n' Max (the original) and Day of the Tentacle.

Try The 7th Guest if you like puzzles as well, it runs in ScummVM now.

First, I have to thoroughly second ("first ... thoroughly second ..." - way to go, Shakespeare ... well, whatever) the Quest for Glory Series. You cannot find the second part as a point&click title (well, presuming that you do not view the Sierra SCI engine based titles as point&click, which in my opinion only someone at least borderline insane could pull off), but if you have the least inclination to role playing games and are an adventure fanatic (which seems to be the case) I'd say fuck it and give this series a try. You will not be disappointed; quite the opposite: you will be sucked into it.

Second, I'd like to recommend everything point&click published by Legend Entertainment, like "Companions of Xanth", "Death Gate", "Mission Critical", "Shannara", "Star Control" and "Callahan's Crosstime Saloon". Magnificent stories and atmosphere there, very well done gems of the adventure genre. (Actually I also recommend the text-based titles from Legend, because they rock. Hard. But if typing totally turns you off, well, give it a pass I guess. You're still missing out though. )
