Interesting. There is only one common denominator. Intense Degree is the only participant who voted for both games. And he is the leader of one of those games.

I’m gonna put a vote in for Life Is Strange. Great game that I’ve been meaning to replay. Also imo a good example of where mainstream adventure games should go (as far as a balance between narrative, exploration & puzzle solving is concerned).

Oh, yeah! Just in time, I’m playing Before the Storm as we speak. So far, it looks and plays just like Life is Strange, which is what I was looking for.

Anyway, I’ll have the Life is Strange CPT posted by tomorrow night. Maybe even sooner…....

PS - Life is Strange is a very good choice, however, I am going to nominate Thimbleweed Park and Shardlight again in the future, those are amazing games too.

Since the current playthrough has been un-pinned, I guess it’s time to start thinking about a new one.

I’m going to nominate Shivers, and hope that Intense Degree will, again, offer to lead it.

I’ll also nominate Lighthouse, and will offer to lead it.

And I’ll also nominate FPFP. While not offering to lead it, I will again offer to try and bring Josh Mandel on board as the featured guest.

Side note: look at the AGSOTD post and you will see that I hope to bring Celeste Gore Barczewska on board as an AG member. As the primary moderator of the Compuserve GAMERS forum, she certainly has some insight as to what was going on while the above three games were topping the charts for Sierra.

I’m hoping someone will take over the voting process. But I’ll get things started.

Standard rules apply. Starting today you have three weeks to nominate and/or vote for games. So the voting will end on August 16, 2018. In the event of a tie everyone, including those who did not vote for any game, can cast one vote for one of the tied games. That tie-breaking process will last one week. In the event there is still a tie, the person who is moderating the voting process, currently me, will have the deciding vote.

Current votes/nominations as of July 26, 2018

Shivers (3)  Doom, rtrooney, CelesteGB
Lighthouse (2)  rtrooney (leader) Doom
Freddy Pharkas Frontier Pharmacist (1) rtrooney

Ha! It’s really curious. I am actually translating Shardlight into Spanish (it is a good game, maybe not top as Technobabylon or Gemini Rue, but good enough) and playing Freddy Pharkas to test a translation from a friend. I am not a Sierra games fan, but it’s really funny (after all, Al Lowe is behind).

     

Currently translating Strangeland into Spanish. Wish me luck, or send me money to my Paypal haha

Not to mention Josh Mandel. If you’ve played Callahan’s Crosstime Saloon, then you’ll know Mandel is probably an even better and funnier comedy writer than Al Lowe. :-P
