Here we are again. Doesn't time fly.
For new members, the aim of this thread is to compile a list of adventure game recommendations from the collected wisdom of us all. It is intended to be a resource to help people decide what game to play next.
Its also a bit of fun.
When I first joined GB, my best source of game recommendations was other boomers. I had no idea there were so many adventure games. I wanted to find out what was good and what I should play. The resulting list, and lists for each subsequent year, are the collected wisdom of all participating boomers.
You bet to list 15 games that you would recommend to someone to play in this day and age. They are not necessarily your own favourite 15 games but they might be. You might however decide to recommend a cross-section of styles or types. You might love a particular game but believe it is too much a product of your own idiosyncracies to recommend, or you might not recommend it because it is notoriously hard to get running on anything later than a 386 machine. There is no rule that says you can’t recommend such games; it is up to you.
No game is excluded, if it meets the criteria of being an adventure game. We all know what that is when we see it, so don’t get too hung up on criteria.
There are some rules though:

1. You can recommend a maximum of 15 games. You can choose to recommend less.
2. You cannot recommend a series. If you want to recommend all the Tex Murphy games, that will take 5 seperate recommendations, one for each game.
3. Myst and RealMyst will be counted as one game.
4. Uru and its add ons will be counted as one game.
5. Adventure games only please (other games get there own list later).

The thread stays open for about three weeks, and I will post intermittent updates. It is always compulsory to get more posts than the year before.
So here to get things started are my 15 recommendations.

(re-edited May 29th)
Love, Betty Lou

OK this year I'm going to wing it... probably the best way to get a true list out of me!!!

Gabriel Knight 2
Longest Journey
Dark Fall
Lifestream
Remedy
Syberia
Syberia 2
Myst 3 Exile
Dig
Starship Titanic
Grim Fandango
Phantasmagoria 2
Nancy Drew Ghost dogs of Moon lake
Faust
Alida

Tig

Here are my recommendation

Schizm
Riven
Myst
Dark Fall
Riddle of the Sphinx
Rhem
Zork Nemesis
Pandoras Directive
Still Life
Discworld Noir
The Beast Within
Blackstone Chronicles
The Last Express
Dark Fall Lights Out
Full Throttle

Just a question -- Is Uru Complete Chronicles considered a compilation of separate games (you have to vote separately for Ages of Myst, To D'ni, and Path of the Shell the way Betty Lou did). Or is it really one game? (Betty Lou could just vote for Uru, which opens up two other slots for her to vote.)

My list is narrowed down to 16. Agonizing.

Personally, I'd consider Uru Complete Chronicles one game. The Ages Beyond Myst portion is really the only bit with a real beginning, middle and ending, IMHO. The other bits are expansion packs, and I would make a distinction between an "expansion pack" and a "game." (tho on the other hand, while I'd certainly recommend Uru Ages Beyond, including POTS makes me have second thoughts....)

So here's my list, anyway (which starts oddly similar to Flotsam's, I notice...)

Riven
GK2: The Beast Within
The Longest Journey
Beyond Atlantis (Atlantis 2)
Darkfall
Myst
Syberia
Sanitarium
Rhem
GK1: Sins of the Fathers

12. Syberia
13. Syberia 2
14. Blade Runner
15. Black Mirror

Hi there,
Well we are off to a good start. I will start counting today and post a little summary of where we are at tonight

This is so tough because some of the classic games that I would say everyone should play just don't hold up graphically to todays standards. So here goes with my favorites:

1. Gabriel Knight 2 The Beast Within
2. Discworld 1
3. Discworld 2
4. LeChucks Revenge Monkey Island 2

12. Legend of Kyrandia Book 1
13. Secret of Monkey Island Monkey Island 1
14. Simon the Sorcerer 1
15. Runaway A Road Adventure

I also want to list the games I left off since they are older and not up to the graphic standards of todays games. These games might be older but they are well worth playing if you have missed them.
Zak McKracken and the Alien Mindbenders-
Awesome Puzzles.
The Dig- Excellent music and atmosphere.
Tony Tough and the Night of the Roasted Moths
Challenging puzzles and funny voice acting.
Grim Fandango- A classic.
Fable- Short but fun.
Kings Quest 2- An oldie but goodie.
Kings Quest 7- Sierra games were always fun.
Dracula 1 & 2- I especially loved 2.
Space Quest Series- Monkey Island/Discworld
humor mixed with wicked puzzles.

Sorry for the delay. I was just counting the tallys and saw the query re Uru.
I will count Uru and its add ons as one game; Uru Chronicles.
I will amend the rules at the start.

Thanks flotsam!

Hi all,
Pithy insights and summaries follow.
Nearly 160 games nominated so far, including 30 or so that weren't mentioned at all last year.
The Myst series of games are the most recommended across a whole series, and considering its comparatively short life (and the fact that it remains unavailable to many of us) Still Life is doing well.
Black Mirror, Dark Fall, TLJ, GK2 and Syberia have already been recommended by at least 20 boomers.
Good to see Ico, Ceremony of Innocence and Shadow of Destiny have been mentioned (I reserve to myself the luxury of editorialising), but the cockroach is yet to be seen.
Black is the colour of choice, and Dark is much preferred to Light.
Sleeping Dragons are preferred to the riding kind, but not by much, and clocks appear to be on the outer, but cursing is admired by many.
Several boomers frequent the saloon, but none the bar, and so far we prefer our titanics in space.
Stay tuned

flotsam, hi,

Not sure if the order matters, so I'll put them in order just in case:

1. Gabriel Knight 3: Blood of the Sacred, Blood of the Damned
2. The Pandora Directive
3. Realms of the Haunting
4. Day of the Tentacle
5. Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis
6. Myst
7. Monkey Island 2: Le'Chuck's Revenge
8. The Last Express
9. Riven
10. The Moment of Silence
11. Discworld Noir
12. The Longest Journey
13. Under a Killing Moon
14. Dark Fall: The Journal
15. Morpheus

Also not sure that you will classify Realms of the Haunting as adventure, but what the hey

Cheers,
metzomagic

15.. CYDONIA - LIGHTBRINGER

I had to leave off some very good ones, such as RAMA, REAH, MYST, OBSIDIAN, LIGHTHOUSE, BLACKSTONE CHRONICLES, SYBERIA II, AND SANITARIUM, but that's how it goes when only 15 are allowed.

Nice to see avp

I used to try and put these in order, but its niggling to decided whether Broken Sword 3 is better than Broken Sword 2. So I am listing them as they occur to me.

Curse of Monkey Island
Escape from Monkey Island
Darkfall 1
Darkfall 2
Traitors Gate 1
Broken Sword 1
Broken Sword 2
Broken Sword 3
Salaambo
Grim Fandango
The Longest Journey
Egypt II
Riven
Pandora's Box
Runaway

In no particular order:
1-RealMyst
2-Zork Nemesis
3-Shivers I
4-Lighthouse
5-The Longest Journey
6-Syberia
7-Gabriel Knight: Beast Within
8-Amber: Journeys Beyond
9-Grim Fandango
10-Myst Exile
11-Dark Fall I
12-Tex Murphy: Pandora Directive
13-Sanitarium
14-Morpheus
15-Riven

1 - The Longest Journey
2 - Syberia
3 - King's Quest 5
4 - King's Quest 6
5 - Grim Fandango
6 - Gabriel Knight 1
7 - Gabriel Knight 2
8 - Full Throttle

10 - Legend of Kyrandia
11 - Zork Nemesis
12 - Zork Grand Inquisitor
13 - Broken Sword
14 - Broken Sword 2
15 - Broken Sword 3

I think to take the pain out of this we should do a "favorite 10 runners-up" list, too.

Myst
Riven
Syberia I
Dark Fall
Zork GI
Obsidian
King's Quest VI
Gabriel Knight, Sins of the Fathers
Timelapse
Journeyman Project III
Riddle of the Sphinx
Dig
Pandora Directive

Dark fall lights out
Dark fall the journal
The secret of monkey island
Day of the tentacle
Indiana jones and the fate of atlantis
Syberia 1
The curse of monkey island
Alone in the dark 1
Monkey island 2 Le Chucks Revenge
The longest journey
Gabriel Knight 3
Sam n Max Hit the road
Broken sword 1
The dig
Broken sword 3

I'd forgotten about Shivers. I should have squeezed that in somewhere.

It suddenly dawned on me that there are two potential reasons for a list like this. First, to acknowledge artistic greatness, sort of like the American Film Institute's list of all time greatest movies (see www.afi.com/tvevents/100years/movies.aspx). Note that there are a lot of old movies on this list, going back to 1915. Or second, to help newer folks find games they might like. I suspect that a lot of the old hands already know what they like and probably have them. It doesn't matter how great a game is if you can't get it. So I'm modifying my approach some this year. I looked over some of my favorite sources and picked out some of my favorites that are still available commercially. Every one of these games is on my Top 15 list or pretty close. Let me emphasize that I am in no way associated with www.cdaccess.com or www.cdromshop.com. If you haven't played these games, get them while the getting is good.

Broken Sword: Circle of Blood CdAccess $20
Byzantine: The Betrayal CdAccess $20
Diskworld Noir CdAccess $20
Gabriel Knight 3 CdAccess $20
The Longest Journey CdAccess $20 a little bawdy, but epic
The Riddle of Master Lu CdAccess $20 caveat: tough game to run
Syberia lots of places
The Dig CDROMshop $24

OK, here's a couple of commercial games that the developers have generously released for free. You can get the ScummVM emulator software and the games here: www.scummvm.org/downloads.php
Beneath a Steel Sky By the folks that did Broken Sword
Flight of the Amazon Queen Very Monkey Islandish

Then finally, here are the ones near and dear to my heart that I have room left to list. These will be more difficult to find, but if you ever run across them don't hesitate.
The Secret of Monkey Island
Tex Murphy: Under A Killing Moon
Tex Murphy: The Pandora Directive
Gabriel Knight: The Beast Within
Zork Grand Inquisitor

Albert

Me and Mrs. Fongo were hanging out at the Adventure Mansion this evening, and thought we'd put together our top 15 for the year.

After a series of complex negotiations, brutal eliminations, and a few tears (I felt much better after she got me some ice cream), we got it together.

After all that, the list looks pretty similar to last year:

Full Throttle
Riven
Syberia
Uru: Ages Beyond Myst
Morpheus
Myst IV Revelation
Amber: Journeys Beyond
Dark Fall
Grim Fandango
Zork Nemesis
Byzantine: The Betrayal
The Neverhood
Bad Mojo
Longest Journey
Tex Murphy: Overseer

Dark Fall, Syberia and Myst IV were the additions this year, with Myst (a little dated), Myst Exile (we preferred Revelation), and Riddle of the Sphinx walking the plank.

In no particular order:

-Gabriel Knight: Sins of the Fathers
-Gabriel Knight 2: The Beast Within
-Gabriel Knight 3: Blood of the Sacred, Blood of the Damned
-Grim Fandango
-The Longest Journey
-Broken Sword: The Shadow of the Templars
-Broken Sword 3: The Sleeping Dragon
-Syberia
-Syberia II
-Missing: Since January
-Still Life
-King's Quest VI: Heir Today, Gone Tomorrow
-The Secret of Monkey Island
-Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's Revenge
-Monkey Island 3: Curse of Monkey Island

Hi ho,
We reach the half way point (more or less) and the No 1 recommendations from previous years all continue to do well, Myst being the least recommended of the previous "winners" so far.
Syberia narrowly heads the list from TLJ.
Special mention to Fongo for the avatar and mentioning the cockroach.

GK1
GK2
GK3
Grim Fandango
TLJ
MI3
MI2
KQ6
TM: Pandora Directive
TM: Overseer
Broken Sword
Syberia II
Nancy Drew: Deception Island (I hate picking just one, because I love pretty much all of them equally, they each have their own charms and faults)
JP3: Legacy of Time
Zork: Grand Inquisitor

Here's mine in no particular order:
Syberia
Syberia 2
Gabriel Knight 1
Gabriel Knight 2
Gabriel Knight 3
Dark Fall
The Fifth Disciple
Arthur's Knight 1
King's Quest 7
King's Quest 8 Mask of Eternity
Post Mortem
Still Life
Black Mirror
The Longest Journey
Gooka:The Mystery of Janatris

but I can think of a lot more that I enjoyed a lot...

Holy moly I pertanear missed this. Here are my recommendations in no particular order.

Tex Murphy: Under A Killing Moon
Tex Murphy: Pandora Directive
Broken Sword 3
Discworld Noir
Myst IV
Longest Journey
Dark Fall
Broken Sword 1
Broken Sword 2
Faust
Black Mirror
Day of the Tentacle
Grim Fandango
Bad Mojo
Curse of Monkey Island

Lucky last syd, and good to see.
The votes are in and the ballot box is closed. Numbers were down on last year which just means I will cajole you lots next year. It remains fun and its always a pleasure.
What to say? Still Life made a strong appearance for a game still not played by many, and whilst the top 3 remained the same, there was movement below that. 50 or so games were mentioned that weren’t mentioned last year, some obviously new, but many old and obviously revered.
Isabelle wasn’t mentioned but you should play it if you can.
As always there is a numerical and an alphabetical list. I have taken some liberties with names to get series games together on the alphabetical list, and because of some personal prejudices; I refuse to call the Schizm games Mysterious Journey 1 and 2, and Beyond the Beyond of Atlantis 2 Too (or whatever its called) is too [blip] confusing.
Alternate names are listed where I could, as are full names wherever possible. Errors are all my own.
All the games must be worth playing – they were mentioned by somebody from among all the games they have played. Given they keep releasing new ones I fear I will never catch up, but I only have myself to blame if I play a dud.
Happy playing

Thank you very much, flotsam! We really appreciate it.

Thanks flotsam for doing this list. A daunting task I'm sure!

Good job, Flotsam! We appreciate all your efforts!

It is indeed my pleasure, and anyway, don't forget it was born out of complete self interest

Flotsam, you're the best!

Now to print the list up and look for the surprises and compare to last year's list....

Super Job--guess KISA will have to go back to work after all

Just like to say a big!!! for all your time and effort, Flotsam!
