What adventure games do you recommend?

daniyeg@lemmy.ml to Games@lemmy.world – 69 points –

pretty much the title. i have played most of sierra, lucasarts and telltale catalogues so if you are suggesting one of their games i've probably already played it. it doesn't have to be a copycat, homage or in the same style as these companies' games either, just that it must satisfy the vague definition of being an "adventure game" and have a good story. thanks in advance, can't wait to see your recommendations!

EDIT: thanks for your recommendations i couldn't reply to everyone. i can't to play (most of) them when i got time.

Comedy is an important part of Point & Click games for me. If anyone has other suggestions, I’d love to hear them.

This list is in order of my favorites:

  • Paradigm
  • Darkside Detective
  • Everything by Amanita Design
  • Cleo: A Pirate’s Tale
  • Feria d’Arles
  • There Is No Game: Wrong Dimension
  • Lost In Play
  • Thimbleweed Park
  • Bertram Fiddle
  • Will of Arthur Flabbington

Paradigm is SO GOOD

also throwing in Quest for Glory, on a writing standpoint

Quest for Infamy (spiritual successor to Quest for Glory) has some really witty, funny writing. It was a blast to play!
