BTW, aren’t those games with the narrator *sort* of 2nd-person as well, because, for example, the narrator is talking about Larry like Larry is you, and not about Larry as he’s him, if you get my drift. Grin

Not always. Gabriel Knight 1 for example.

And aren’t Samorost-like (not Machinarium) games also kind of 2nd-persons in that sense you’re sort of a “god” who interacts with the surroundings?

Huh?

Name 2 adventure games where you visit the zoo. (yeah, I’ve been to the zoo today!)

I used to love zoos. Not anymore. Frown
I can answer the question, but I won’t cause right now I can’t think of a new one.

About 2nd-person - GK3 of course! I completely forgot you can move the camera regardless of the main character’s movement. BTW, aren’t those games with the narrator *sort* of 2nd-person as well, because, for example, the narrator is talking about Larry like Larry is you, and not about Larry as he’s him, if you get my drift. Grin

Yes. QFG might be a better example because The Hero doesn’t talk, while the idea of Larry being 100% “me” is kinda disturbing! Frown

And aren’t Samorost-like (not Machinarium) games also kind of 2nd-persons in that sense you’re sort of a “god” who interacts with the surroundings?

I think so. I don’t know *what* you are in those games. I’m pretty sure the creators of Botanicula were on lots of psychedelic drugs (the mushroom character is a clue).

Name 2 adventure games with 2d characters but 3d backgrounds (this might be tough, I can only think of one!)

Huh?

You know, you click on a remote part of the screen, and something happens - which isn’t related to the main character’s actions, meaning we don’t see him/her going to that part of the screen.
