When do you usually play Adventure games?

For me the best time to play adventure games is at night,late at night when I’m relaxed,with only the TV playing or not,headphones on and enjoying the silence of the night with a great story.Because adventure games are like good novels.They are novels that you can interact with.

So this after midnight magical time is the best for me when it comes to playing adventure games relaxed and cozy…if it’s raining or snowing outside even better.

lol that sounds good. I like playing late at night too if I’m not too tired. If I am, I usually end up going with a shooter to keep me awake. I also like playing in the afternoon with some hot tea and something to munch on if the weather is bad outside.

The BEST time is when you don’t have anything planned on a Friday or Saturday night. You can stay up very late, maybe order some Chinese… Dorky I know, but it feels so so good. Smile

I play PC games “when I have the time”. Which is usually one or two weekday evenings. Sometimes Saturday afternoons as well if the Mrs. has to work and I finish the housekeeping early enough.

Gaming on the DS is reserved for (extended) toilet breaks, and right before going to bed. Tongue

I play when I have time, which is far too often these days unfortunately. Currently replaying Myst Smile.

I agree late in the night is probably the best time. But sometimes, it can feel cosy to play it in the heat of the day, as the hot summer sun rays fill the room. Cool

In my job I work from home with flexible hours, so I play pretty much whenever I feel like taking a break from work. However, my favorite time to play is probably at night, when everything is quiet.

Any time I can, but obviously the quiet, dark night time is most preferable. Total immersion.

Usually I play when I have an hour or so between appointments.  When I travel I take games on my laptop and on an old iPaq handheld crammed with funstuff from back in the day and books I’m reading.  (A lot handier than a tablet imo.  It’s also great for striking up conversations with people who want to know what kind of “phone” that is).

I have to be careful when working from home that I don’t get too engrossed.  The Five Cores has me putting off a couple of things I need to get to at the moment.

for me playing an adventure needs at least few hours in which your mind can concentrate at peace, so yeah, alone in the dark when everybody’s asleep seems like the perfect time. and the alone part is very important, cause if i’m not playing with somebody by my side (which I adore, but happens sooo rarely) I prefer adventuring on my own completely. So I guess those cozy sunday afternoons do the thing as well. All that matters for a good session is a chill mood and nothing on your mind to disturb your thoughts.

I play Adventure Games, or games in general whenever I feel like it. However, I also prefer to play in the evening when it’s dark. I also really enjoy playing on a rainy and cold day over the the weekend, just gets the mood right. I usually prefer to play with my headphone on, while sipping some good take away coffee. Also if I have a game that I really like, I tend to play for hours, and for days until I finnish it. I simply can’t put down a game that I get hooked on, especially if it’s and Adventure Game.

usually evening/night (with headphones), winter (and autumn) is good for gaming.
but it always depends on my free time and how good is the game i play. (i have plenty of old games on my to-be-played-next list, so i really do not play new titles, unless they are really good.)
