What’s that one adventure game you can just boot up and have a great chill time with? Mine would probably be Day of the Tentacle. It’s such a wonderful, colorful world to inhabit, and all the characters are lively and oozing with personality (no Sludge-o-Matic pun intended). I could spend hours just walking around talking to characters and not even think about solving any puzzles.
What’s the one game you’d boot up to just relax with?
I enjoy coming back to “Loom” once in a while! 🙂
The combination of some of the most beautiful EGA graphics I have ever seen with the wonderful Tchaikovsky soundtrack still mesmerizes me to this day. 🥰
Monkey Island/Grim Fandango/Leisure Suit Larry
Probably the Quest for Glory series for me. Played them so many times that I can just pick up any one them with any character and get sucked right back in to the game. I’ve had an itch lately to do a full playthrough of all 5 games after not touching them for a long time but I have little free time and too much backlog…
Yep, that’s my choice as well.
To make this reply more interesting, I guess I will also add Hypnospace Outlaw. There’s so many bonus pages that aren’t required for completing the game that I can just spend plenty of time hopping around an alternate 90s internet and having fun
I sometimes boot up Curse of Monkey Island. It was my first proper adventure game. The voice acting, dialogue, music and art is still charming to this day.
they could just republish it as is for modern platforms like the ipad, it doesn’t even really need remastering
