What games made in
Adventure Game Studio are your favorites? I'll start with two of mine:
Cirque De Zale
Based on this one, i wish author Rebecca Clements would be more involved into making adventure games. I like the sharp humor, which indeed pays homage to Monkey Island or Simon the Sorcerer but manages to stand on its own as well, and is better than in many, many commercial games.
Permanent Daylight
This one is more in the line of Maniac Mansion and such - evil scientist, saving the world... It's a simple little game but i really liked the atmosphere of it.
