Since then the adventure game genre has sucked me in the same way that the Death Star did to the Millenium Falcon; no breaking away!
EDIT: I just found this site: http://www.zxspectrum.net/
It seems to let you play those games of yesteryear such as The Hobbit, Lords of Midnight, Colossal Adventure etc in a flash window. Hope this doesn't break any rules.

The Hobbit was my first adventure game also.
