Hi i'm new to this forum. Ihave a few questions. First i would like recomdations for new games. Secondly I am going to buy a new computer just for gaming any thoughts about what i should be looking for

Hi ya Shadow_ridre and to GameBoomers. This forum is for every topic Except games so I'm going to move you over to the Adventure Forum. Folks there love to talk games.

Posting what you want your computer to do in the Glitches forum will probably net you some great recommendations.

Hi, shadow_ridre and welcome to Gameboomers! What kind of games do you like to play?

Happy New Year and Welcome to GameBoomers Shadow_ridre! Let us know what type of games you play so we can recommend some!

Well i play mostly adventure games you know problem solving puzzles. For example the last game i played was The Legend Of Crystal Vally. It was ok Not hard enough

You want hard? Try Myst. From what I hear, that's all puzzles! One reason I have no desire to play it.

Or here's a thought. Go over to Adventure Gamers and look through their short reviews of the Top 100 Adventures according to them. It's a great list and you should be able to tell which of the games you'd like to play.

If you just want a wonderful game that costs next to nothing, go to GOG.com and get Zork Grand Inquisitor. It's on the list at #12. Funny! And there are a few puzzles that should test you a bit.

Gil.

Machinarium!

I second Machinarium! What a brilliant game!

There is also a list of GameBoomer favorites here.

thanks i playerd myas and the first adventure games i ever played thats y i'm hook played all zork as well give me something new and exciting

i think riven was one of the best games i ever played thats the standered for me

Well, Riven is up there on my all time favourite.
If you like that try the RHEM games, Alida, the Schizm games, Outcry, and Sentinel just to name a few.

Make sure you take a look at our games recommendation threads to see how the members voted for their favorite games.

If you like puzzles, I have to second flotsam's recommendation for the Rhem games. They're loaded with fun and challenging puzzles!
