Which company was the 3rd best adventure game creators? - Page 2

Probably Infogrames. The original Alone in the Dark games were really something different. The Cthulhu series was also neat.

What about Coktel Vision (another French company)? They've produced a great number of top quality stuff. I know they've been acquired by Sierra later on, but they still were pretty much its own thing.

And KHEOPS too - the best adventure game developers of this century so far. Or is it too new to be great?

EDIT: Also Cyan, Access and Legend definitely should be amongst the best, but Microprose and Electronic Arts are in the poll by mistake

This. Otherwise, Cyan. I'm a big Presto Studios fan too, but Cyan tops them. But yeah, in the 90s, Broderbund was definitely my publisher of choice.
