If you can speak German, there's Edna Bricht Aus. Best adventure I've played in a long time, also with plenty of humor.

Sorry don't speak German well enough to play a game in German. As for Callahan's Crosstime Saloon, a friend of mine actually had a copy burried in his room. It's not all that great, especially since I can't even figure out the first riddles. I'm usually good at word association but I still can't figure it out.

Just finished Al Emmo and was somewhat disapointed.

#1 Way too short for the price paid.
#2 Humor was good in a LSL meets Freddy Pharkas sort of way, but voices started to get more annoying than funny halfway through the game.

Otherwise, the game was O.K. with a fairly decent, if somewhat predictable, storyline. Anybody have any more ideas of good humorous games?

I know you said you didnt like Simon the Sorcerer, but if you havent played it try Simon the Sorcerer 2 - that is one of the funniest games I have ever played.

Also, Tony Tough had a few funny moments, its a bit of a last resort though

Discworld 1,2 and Noir are the most funny adventure games i ever played. Also LucasArts games and Beavis&Butthead in Virtual Stupidity (only if you like them).

Got all 3 Discworlds and most of Lucasarts titles. As for Simon the Sorcerer, I guess I could hunt it down again. Don't have many ideas until some of the new games come out later this month and the next.

Well actually found a Simon pack with 1 & 2 on DVDR. Actually funny stuff even though the puzzles were a bit vague. About to start working on Simon 2 soon. Give it a few days and I should have finished it. Really need to find some newer stuff though. Just went to Fry's Electronics today and looked in their Adv. section. Didn't find a damned thing that was even worth the effort. Most of what they had were mystery, horror, or bland sci-fi. I can hardly wait for any of the games I mentioned early on to come out.

Nah I much prefer adventures that take alot of time to play. Also I'd rather have hard copies so that I can delete a game, forget about it, then find it and play it again.

You really should see, if you can dig up a copy of:
3 skulls of the Toltecs.

It's the prequel of The Westerner (Wanted, A wild western Adventure)

I loved those games - and can't wait for the next to come out.

I gave up on it after a while. It felt more like reading a book than playing a game. I do enjoy reading books but about serious stuff, for comedy I'm a visual person I guess.

I'll have to look up 3 Skulls. Wanted was not that great in my opinion. The controls were real glitchy and the humor wasn't that great. I'll try anything once though.

Well just finished Simon 4. Actually was a good series despite it's likeness to DW. Still can't find Simon 3D anywhere though. Any suggestions on where to look? Can hardly wait until some new funny games come out.
