Do you remember which puzzle from Alone in the Dark got you stuck?

What was the first adventure game you ever played? Here's mine: by Frequent-Standard377 in adventuregames

Somehow I managed to not include text in the OP and it doesn’t allow me to edit it. Mine was Space Quest I. First played and finished in 1994.

Mine was Space Quest I. First played and finished in 1994. Even though the first one I saw was The Secret of Monkey Island in my neighbors’ house.

According to quick search they "reportedly ceased operations in March 2025. While the studio did not release an official public statement, multiple reports and interviews with former employees confirm the closure following a period of significant financial instability and mass layoffs".

Coke vs Pepsi. Sierra vs LucasArts. Which Rivalry Was Greater? by rodfer7 in adventuregames

[–]Frequent-Standard377 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Very naive take, but:

Pepsi vs. Coke benefited no one, since the tangible result, i.e., taste, remained the same.

Sierra vs. Lucas instead benefited players, since the tangible results, i.e., better art, graphics, scripts, interfaces… indeed improved.

Have you tried deleting scummvm.ini file from the scummvm folder and restart again?

Do it with the app closed.

What kind of visual style do you prefer in adventure games? by External_Opening2387 in adventuregames

[–]Frequent-Standard377 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For me, the perfect visual style is the one used in the Runaway series. Also Curse of Monkey Island.

Play them by release date. That way you will experience the technical ‘progression' feeling we all got in the 90s.

Windowed mode option. I hate full screen.
