Here tis, the results for this year.
Perhaps a few surprises. Not for the first game, as it continues to prove its staying power with 4 in a row. But I for one expected Dreamfall to be much higher. That\ though is the beauty of such a list; lots of things to discuss and ponder.
As always, two lists follow, one in numerical order, and one in alphabetical order. I have taken some liberties with names to try and get series together, and have retained those names in the numerical list so as not to confuse.
I have also tried to use full titles, and alternative tiles as well.
No doubt I have missed some and made some errors - mea culpa and apologies in advance.
Hopefully you will find something to play that you might not have thought to play otherwise - maybe even Isabelle!
Enjoy smile

Many, many thanks for your hard work on the list, flotsam! bravo

Being as you mentioned Isabelle, I wanted to point out that this game can actually be ordered from the publisher's website; this is how I got my copy. Previously I had thought it was "rare" and difficult to find, but no. smile It took about two weeks for me to receive it after having placed my order.

ISABELLE

So, here's a heads up for anyone interested in playing it. wave

Uncle reg,

Just trying to find out what happened - did you by any chance edit your posting of the list of games?

Hi Uncle Reg,
Occassionally things get lost in the editing, so I will check my raw data and edit the list if need be.
Thanks for the heads up.
And way to go Marian bravo

No, I did not edit my original post. I remember seeing somebody else vote for Loom, and flotsam posted this (I think before I posted my vote):

Quote:
27 games mentioned so far that weren't on last years list, and not all of them new - Loom and Pilgrim to name just two.


Oops, it got fixed while I was writing this. Thanks flotsam, good work.

Interesting list.

The two Syberias are among the first three games bravo
As well as The Longest Journey thumbsup

I'm happy to see that SF: Tunguska and Keepsake also are very high on the list.

This shows that boommers knows good adventure games when they see them. And I do correctly in assuming that Gamebommer's review of adventure games are worth listening to when I'm decding what adventuregames I'm going to buy...

Good to hear that Karsten - it was the whole reason I started the list way back when. Who better to judge adventure games than all of us!
