I'm gonna recycle the recommendation that was given to me --- Still Life. What a game. I was very impressed by it. Better than Longest Journey. And by judging from the games you have played, I'm sure you'd love it too.

here's a good review spot on.

I really enjoyed Blade Runner.

Sotaria · 04-12-2007, 05:49 AM

A couple of great underdogs you neglected to mention are:

The Gene Machine

and to a lesser extent

Zero Critical
Prisoner of Ice

Fien · 04-12-2007, 06:25 AM

Bad Mojo, great game
UFO's (aka Gnap), short but sweet
Stupid Invaders, not everybody's cup of tea
Shadow of Memories/Destiny, intriguing story
Moment of Silence

Draco2.5 · 04-12-2007, 07:57 AM

Gene Machine is on the list.

Anyway, Here's a few good ones that Weren't on your list

Shadow of a Comet
Conquest of Camelot and Longbow
Pepper's Adventures in Time
Goblins 1&2
Woodruff and the Schnibble
Quest For Glory series
Police Quest 1-4

If you liked Black Mirror, you might want to give Nibiru a shot. It's created by the same team that did Black Mirror.

I also liked Tony Tough.

if you liked fahrenheit you'll like anything

Larry Emmo · 04-12-2007, 11:07 PM

Well I liked Farenheit but I never got very far because of the annoying action sequences that were just to hard. It could have been a great game though, but why would I like anything if I liked that game?

Jazhara7 · 04-13-2007, 03:54 AM

I think "The Dig" is nice.

And I would recommend "Imperium Romanum", but it's extremely rare, and I think it might only exist in German (I'm so glad I secured a copy of this gem.). But if you speak German, and ever get your hands on it, go for it (you might have to use VDMSound to get the sound and program both working properly, but that's alright)! A real Underdog.

hmmmm -- Let's see.

Secret Files: Tunguska and Nibiru are 3rd person adventure games as are the two released Agatha Christie adventure games. Still Life & Post Mortem, too.

Larry Emmo · 04-13-2007, 04:44 AM

Post Mortem would be one of the games I forgott to put on the list but I cant even remember what it is about anymore, just that I stopped playing it very quickly. The Dig is on that list though and black mirror was not a favourite of mine.

Whoops, must have missed that.

It's a shame that you didn't enjoy Black Mirror, but there's nothing that can be done about that. I know that many people particularly had something against the ending. This is one of the games you either like or you don't. Oh well.

I'm surprised nobody's mentioned URU - can play 1st or 3rd.
I think Carte Blanche was 3rd person but can't really remember since I only bothered with it for about 2 minutes.

There's also Keepsake and, a great game, Shadow of Destiny.

ssa · 04-16-2007, 02:13 AM

Remembered another one: Wanted A Wild Western Adventure.

Yeah wanted was a great game if only maybe a bit to easy, but the shooting games in the end were fun and original. I might re-play it someday.
