Good Adventure games on Bigfishgames

Hi,

I’ve got 6 game credits to spend on bigfishgames and I’m not sure what good adventure games they publish…

I hate with a passion hidden object games, I never would have thought that pixel hunting would become one day a subgenre Laughing

Games that I played recently that I liked
- Back to the future
- The blackwell games
- Resonance (but the end kind of killed the enjoyment of the game for me)


Some of my favorite games are:
- Emerald City confidential
- Dreamfall
- Longest Journey
- Indiana jones 4
- Beneath a steel sky
- Gabriel Knight
- Legend of Kyrandia 2 & 3
- Grim Fandango
- Conquest of the longbow
- The last express

I’m a sucker for a good story, the rest is secondary (as long as there are no boring, repetitive mini games, or things like mazes)

In a way, this post is pure laziness of my part… But there’s just such a huge list of games listed there with no real classifications (most of the games listed as adventures are not the kind of adventure games I’m looking for…) that I thought it might be better to ask people here… Hope it’s ok!

Most games listed under “large file” are real adventures. (Avoid titles with the word Empire or Pets and the hoggy Mystery Case File series.) If you love a good story and haven’t played it already, then The Last Express is a must play.

EDIT: Oops! The last express is on your list of favorites. If you don’t mind 1st person games, you could try Return to Mysterious Island. Fun. Or Rhiannon. Dark.

     

Now playing: ——-
Recently finished: don’t remember
Up next:  Eh…
Looking forward to:
Ithaka of the Clouds; The Last Crown; all the kickstarter adventure games I supported

Hmm, I thought I answered, but it seems it didn’t register it…

Fien, Siddhi; Thanks for the suggestion

I wish I hadn’t played Last Express just so I could discover it again. It really is a great game, I bought it right when it came out…

So, in the end I bought: Return To Mysterious Island (thanks Fien), Syberia 1 & 2, Echo, Riddle of the Sphinx,
The Secrets of Da Vinci, Sherlock Holmes VS Arsene Lupin

It looked like the games with the best stories…
