Default You're an adventure hero!

You woke up and felt your head heavy...something had just hit you hard.You are trying to remember...who you are,where and...what's your adventure about?

Cyberpunk for me. Nothing like having a load of cool hyper-tech electronics to get that heroing done.

That said, cyberpunk tends to be a bit on the depressing side. Can I be a jolly cyberpunk hero?

I have to say, there's something about Cyberpunk that draws me. Not like totally-out-there futuristic stuff, but visions of a more-or-less near future that are still recognizable for this world...

And of course modern stuff like the Gabriel Knights, not so much gadgets though

I would have gone cyberpunk, but then someone mentioned Nazis, I'm so torn...

I am missing medieval times in the options. Nothing spells trouble like politics in medieval Britain

Having to decide between spooky mansions and cyberpunk is hard. I'm in a cyberpunk mood today though.

That's okay, Jelena. I'll brave the spooky mansion by myself...just me and my ghosts. <3

Haha I had to make the choices hard,because we actually all like every single category up there more or less,right?
I chose 1920s although that's not very far from the 1940s style,but still it's far,I had that LEGO adventurer near me when I made that thread.Lol!

I definetely love the spooky mansions and the modern ones too...haven't enjoyed a cyberpunk adventure game yet :/

As for the pirates one....I had to not include it because everybody would click pirates then...Arrrrr! Let's just say we're all...."Mighty Pirates(TM)"



P.S.Would Sherlock Holmes fall under a category...Victorian era?I think he could easily fit in the Spooky section.

Well, a little bit of everything won't hurt...
But... from your list I would say most deserts, jungles, that stuff when it comes to adventure games works for me.

I do like sci fi and hi tech stuff in series, movies, but it's a little weird, cause I don't like it THAT much in adventure games...I dunno why...
