I'm 37 this year, and I didn't really discover adventure games until my mid twenties. My cousin introduced me to them on his first home PC, where I discovered Space Quest IV.
I didn't really get hooked until my friends Gary and Wendy bought their first computer, and started collecting all sorts of computer games in the mid-90s. All three of us were pretty avid Adventure Gamers back then. However, they separated, and neither of them has really been into AGs since then.
My wife plays a little, and really liked The Longest Journey and Dreamfall, but she's not a fan of the genre, preferring MMO's. I'm the only AG fan I know around here (Hamilton), although a friend of mine was a pretty avid fan of the Quest For Glory series, and gave me a copy of the entire series, which I confess I still haven't played.
