Adventure Game Sound..uh game - Page 45

Oscar · 02-03-2012, 12:38 PM

Well... okay. 1st person game from the first half of the 90s.

It's not an obscure game, but you probably need to have played it to know it.

Kurufinwe · 02-03-2012, 08:20 PM

Mobygames thinks it might be Return to Zork. Or maybe Dr. Brain. But I'm going to say RtZ.

Oscar · 02-03-2012, 08:43 PM

Not RtZ or Brain. The game isn't on that list. Though it is on Mobygames.

diego · 02-04-2012, 05:00 AM

Is it on THIS list?

Don't know why, but it struck me like it could be Legend title. I'm gonna go with Death Gate?

Oscar · 02-04-2012, 04:11 PM

Diego to the rescue!

Yes it's Death Gate. Any idea which location?

*that is, if THIS is the main theme

Oscar · 02-07-2012, 10:48 PM

It's at the realm of Arianus at the Kicksey-Winsey machine.

Your turn now. Actually no, scratch that - you should be catching up on your homework and playing one of the best games ever made. That goes for all of you!

Kurufinwe · 02-09-2012, 07:29 PM

*bump*

Diego, are you done playing Death Gate?

Almost. Ok, here's one from it. Or IS IT?

Oscar · 02-09-2012, 09:05 PM

It sounds very similar to Lost Horizon but I don't think that's the one.

Kurufinwe · 02-09-2012, 09:09 PM

I would have said Lost Horizon too.

diego · 02-10-2012, 05:39 AM

Not LH. Here's another one close to the start of the game, just as the previous tune.

diego · 02-10-2012, 10:49 AM

It's a fairly popular game. It's also included in the Top 100 article. Here's the third tune after which i'll go with heavier hints.

gray pierce · 02-10-2012, 11:08 AM

It's BOUT!

gray pierce · 02-10-2012, 11:09 AM

Amazing game btw,. No matter what anyone else says

Also I knew it by the first tune. The other ones are cool too though

Edit: Sorry, hearing that beautiful music got me a bit too worked up. Off course other people's opinions matter too. Don't want to start THAT argument again.

diego · 02-10-2012, 12:27 PM

Yeap - The Book of Unwritten Tales. It was probably a little unfair since many haven't played it yet and i was being all "sneaky" hiding the fact that it's a pretty recent-ish game, but oh well...

The first tune is from the intro credits, the second plays at McGuffin's house and the third in the town.

gray pierce · 02-10-2012, 01:38 PM

Er...this is kinda stupid but I actually don't have time to post a new tune. I just posted the answer in my five minute break and got so carried away by my enthusiasm I forgot it means I should post a new one.

Long story short: anyone who'd like to have a go. Be my guest.

Kurufinwe · 02-10-2012, 02:51 PM

All right then. I have this medley I've been sitting on for a month, so I'm taking over the thread!

It's the 10th medley I've made for this thread (and the best if I may say so myself). It has 30 extracts from 30 different games, all of them adventures, all of them reviewed on this site (apart from a couple of old ones that they haven't gotten around to doing yet). I've tried to balance newer games and older games, first and third person, traditional and hybrid-y. It has many easily-recognizable tracks (so anyone can play!), and a few hard ones for those who like a challenge.

There's not really a theme this time, apart from "music I like". And it's called Waiting for Godot because, while it has a lot of piano and a lot of sax, it manages never to use Godot's theme.

Important rule: please limit yourself to two guesses at a time (i.e. until I confirm your guesses). And as usual, you get bonus points if you can say where/when the track plays in the game.

(01:38) 04 -

Spoiler:
GK 1 - Gabriel walks into caged animal room in the underground voodoo hounfour in Day 10.

(6:20) 14 -

Spoiler:
Gray Matter - The Game of Life test for Sam in the Daedalus Club.

Big similarities in the tunes I immediately recognized.

ollie · 02-10-2012, 03:58 PM

Sweet, I like these medleys! Great work, Kurufinwe (as usual).

Here are my two guesses:

# 02

Spoiler:
Day Of The Tentacle - should be the Nurse Edna Theme

# 06

Spoiler:
Dreamfall - The Hospital Room
