http://www.abandonia.com/en/games/17...zards+VGA.html - Except for the last 3, all screens are bad
http://www.abandonia.com/en/games/12...Places%29.html - No must try. You can put some other Leisure Suit Larry titles here.
http://www.abandonia.com/en/games/12...torals%21.html - The same here.
http://www.abandonia.com/en/games/12...r+Work%21.html - Bad screens and no must try. Also Leisure Suit Larry
http://www.abandonia.com/en/games/12...ip+Out%21.html - Same here. Only the last screen is good. Les Manley is also good to include as a must try game for Leisure Suit Larry
http://www.abandonia.com/en/games/14...Adventure.html - bad screens. No must try
http://www.abandonia.com/en/games/21/Loom.html - 10 line review. No games at bottom
http://www.abandonia.com/en/games/30...on+Deluxe.html - more than 10 must try games
http://www.abandonia.com/en/games/17...Angel+VGA.html - Bad screens except the last one
http://www.abandonia.com/en/games/12...en+Season.html - Short review and bad screens except the last one
http://www.abandonia.com/en/games/17...+Hero+VGA.html - bad screens
http://www.abandonia.com/en/games/13...s+Revenge.html - SHort review
http://www.abandonia.com/en/games/13...+Mutation.html - short review and the first 4 screens are bad
http://www.abandonia.com/en/games/10...niversary.html - bad screens except for the last one
http://www.abandonia.com/en/games/689/Waxworks.html - More than 10 must try
http://www.abandonia.com/en/games/602/Waynes+World.html - no must try
http://www.abandonia.com/en/games/24...+Prophecy.html - no must try
http://www.abandonia.com/en/games/31...ndbenders.html - Bad screens
http://www.abandonia.com/en/games/10...+-+ICEMAN.html - No must try games. You can add there some games from the Police Quest series, they have the same developer team and probably feel the same.

Ok. Finished the adventure section related to screens, must try games and reviews. If I find more time I'll probably check that list one more time for the release date, dev/pub data and all that other stuff.

Thanks for all the work TotalAnarchy Very much appreciated. I'll try to fix most of those as quickly as possible.

I know I know I could fix these myself. I WILL if you give me enough time. :P Just so I can remind myself of them later, and why not in case another updater wants to do it before I find time. :P The screenies must be made again, the rest I'd fix it right now if I were already familiar with udpating functions and feared no possible borking due to rush.

Star Control
also Archon is duplicated in the related entries.

Star Control II

Transport Tycoon

UFO - Enemy Unknown

I checked the adventure genre concerning release dates, pub/dev data, and the reviews. Found only minor problems which could be overlooked.

http://www.abandonia.com/en/games/46...+of+China.html - Every time the apostrophe is used in the review I don't know why it's preceded by a backslash
http://www.abandonia.com/en/games/24...II%2C+The.html - too much space between the paragraphs
http://www.abandonia.com/en/games/46...s+in+Time.html - I don't know if you noticed, but between the ads and the review there is a little square image or something

Ok. Just confirming that I'm already on it. I'll post all the problems in one post.

May I draw your attention to Wolfenstein 3D? It has a really short review for such a cool game. And a few of the pictures are blurry.
