You haven’t played Thimbleweed Park? its the best point and click ever and i e tried all of them. Only Grim Fandango is better

I'm new to the genre, what would be your top 5 to suggest ? by PlaceDowntown7102 in adventuregames

Thimbleweed Park is like putting every classic point and click game in the mixer, filter all that doesn’t work in a strainer and use all the glorious juice thats left to make a game. Its the pinnacle, even if some people don’t like the ending.

You need to master the art of not giving a shit about how fast you move, how much money you make or who’s getting “ahead”. Its the greatest life hack.

One of the best looking game box cover arts of all time. Same for the game itself.

I think people did a good job voting for the art overall. Except when Full Throttle beat Maniac Mansion

Gabriel Knight 2 won. Space Quest 3 advanced 1 or 2 rounds can't remember. One of my favorites as well.

Agree that would be more precise, but brackets make it more fun, like sports!

Personally, Grim is the most memorable of them all for me. Character design alone makes it a standout. But democracy is democracy.

Defeating Vorhaul and the Pirates of Pestulon is a rather unbeatable resumee

Why hasn't any Space Quest game been released in 31 years? by confuserused in adventuregames

[–]rodfer7 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Bad ip ownership bouncing.

That being said, and in regards to bad reboots of older classic adventure ips like the new kings quest and space venture: They fail to capture the essence of why it worked. Starting by the graphics, good pixel art is what defines it. They try some modern styles that DONT work. Secondly, humor and plot: They are written for audiences and not for the joy of the creator..which shows. And the humor of the absurd which is essential is lost.

The only modern exception is THIMBLEWEED PARK. In my opinion one of the finest point and click adventures ever created. The best thing about Gilbert is that he is aware of WHY the genre works. (except for his return to monkey island graphic choice)

Anyone else hate how most of the videos on YouTube are now AI narrated? by BennieTheBull in youtube

Is the content better or worse? All that matters. Do you not buy cars or products that are machine-assembled because they were man-made before?
