    I heard that the Gabriel Knight series is excellent, but I haven't played it. So I voted for Hero's Quest.

      Gabriel Knight. Deep stories, intelligent puzzles, lots of atmosphere.
      I watched you fall. I think I pushed.

        The best adventure games have to be the Infocom ones. They are second to none.

            Leisure Suit Larry was fun.

            I've never played or seen the others though.

              Quest for Glory was the best of the series though...

                I'm a Gabe fan myself. QFG runs a close second, but it lost its way in the last couple installments.

                  Space Quest series, SQ4 in particular.

                  So many one-liners in that game.

                      Unfortunately I've only played KQ 4-7, one SQ and a couple LL's.

                      As far as enjoyment, each were fun for awhile, but the KQ's which I remember the best, lacked replayability. And I have a problem with not using guidebooks and now the internet for such puzzle games, which limits their fun for me. I will say this, the KQ games always pushed the limits of my pc when they came out, especially the latter ones with voice overs. Course, then I was a dumb kid who thought a DX2-50 was sweet.

                        I'll go for Leisure Suit Larry..........crude, but very funny at times.

                          Larry games where great fun... Haven't played any of the other games mentioned... Al Lowe is still doing what he can, to convince Sierra into making another Lesiure Larry game... I hope he suceeds

                          Btw, why only Sierra adventure games? There are other great adventure games on the market also (e.g. The Longest Journey)
                          This space is empty... or is it?

                            Kings Quest followed by Spacequest.
                            I only got through them though by cheating.
                            I'm building a wagon! On some other part of the internets, obviously (but not that other site).

                              Looks like your sig is even more on the nose than I thought.
