Day of the Tentacle was great, but I have played it. How about Syberia? Is that any good.

You can try the demo for Beneath a Steel Sky and Lure of the Temptress.
You may download them from the revolution's site http://revolution.co.uk/

You may also enjoy the King's Quest, the Police Quest and the Space Quest games. You can actually get these three series in brandnew collection for each of the Quest releases However, there is also a fanmade? re-make of
King's Quest 1-3 which sometimes is (far) better than the original ones, imo.

And there's a fanmade Broken Sword 2.5 out -- sort of a 2½ D game, I think.
Simon the sorcerer 1+2 is also fairly good games.

I feel like I'm aways correcting you The demos are not available there.
However, you will find the full version of Lure and a link to scummvm.org where you'll find the full version of BASS.

Sorry, I should hit with this as I'm very tired today.
Just turned in an application and cv/resume for a new job --- so I'm totally and today. I'm glad you're correcting me, though
- especiallu this day, when I can't seem to remember that it is the full games (right?) that are available, not the demos...

Yes, definitely the full games. Those two have been freeware for a while now.

Though the humour is a bit childish, King's Quest VII and Torin's Passage do have cartoon graphics.

For what you've played and enjoyed, you should definitely play Syberia, great story and the graphics speak for themselves

How can I resist suggesting the Nick Bounty games.
cartoony, Funny, and a conspiracy about counterfeit crabs!

Ok, these games are short, but free! Should entertain you for a while!

If you don't mind realllly old EGA/VGA graphics ,

Cinemaware action adventure Rocket Ranger was a hoot to play (not sure about now) and has nazi conspiracy.

http://www.cinemaware.com/clsgame_rr.asp



Sierra's Heart of China was another early title that was pretty cool. Maybe not really cartoony graphics but more of photo realistic graphics. Looked really fantastic at that time.
