Last Adventure that got you REALLY hooked !!
Oh sure, I hope I didn’t sound too pessimistic previously And the low sales are somehow my fault : I had a very bad commercial strategy lol
Besides, I don’t give up the “world” I created for ASA ! So I hope you’ll see more Cubes in space in the future
Aw, that’s a shame Simon. I didn’t expect the number of sales to be high, considering that I’ve only read about it here and you didn’t manage to get it on one of the portals (yet), such as Desura or GOG, which also helps sales. Still, it deserves more attention from adventure game fans in my opinion. The positive review on this site didn’t really help?
Ontopic:
A Space Adventure was one of the recent adventures that had me hooked. I was still thinking about it and its puzzles while I was at work and exploring new environments and solving its many puzzles kept me engrossed to the extent that I was playing it throughout the night.
I especially have this with games that don’t rely on inventory puzzles, which have too few aha-moments for me, and its these moments that give you such a good feeling. ASA had quite a few of those.
Hey thanks again Primate Ryan !
No the positive review didn’t help that much, I don’t understand why as I spread the word everywhere I could. I think most people are scared when they read the puzzles are difficult ! It’s a matter of liking puzzles or not !
About Desura it’s currently on standby (ASA would need to work as a standalone = without system dependencies like DLL). I’m working on it with the author of Adventure Maker, it may take some time… or never happen Argl…!

I won’t add more here, I don’t want this topic to be submerged by ASA (even if that’s great lol)
There is already a topic dedicated to ASA if anyone wants to speak of it, so don’t hesitate I’m more than happy to answer your questions !

People who don’t want to buy/try ASA but still want to support indie adventures could “like” the facebook page of the game : http://www.facebook.com/aspaceadventure
Thanks !

Now on topic :
I forgot to mention Grim Fandango, of course !
Did you guys ever notice that there was a “deluxe” version of this game in preparation for a while ? http://grimfandangodeluxe.blogspot.fr/
Who knows if the project is still in dev ?
no need to start a thread; about how Memento Mori 2 got me Sooo good, this game is the closet to Police Quest games I played since long time, because of the mix between office work, investigation and traditional exploring of different areas and locations, plus the game is looking fabulous, too detailed face/skin appearance as you can see at those other non-adventure games as Mass Effect and so on, great Soundtrack, and beautiful, just beautiful voice acting, Lara’s voice is top notch; a moment at a cutscene when she were shouting for her husband’s life really got me shaking, as if it was real.
Great game don’t get it mixed up with games such Art of Murder or Chronicles of Mystery or even secret Files, this is with more high standards and above its predecessor.
no need to start a thread; about how Memento Mori 2 got Sooo good
I agree - Cant really think of much else to say, as I have already said a lot about this game

I’d have to say Monkey Island 4. Hook got me semi-hooked but Hook’s a pussy, with only one hook who does he think he is? Meathook is the real deal. Two hooks or nothing!

you sound like a drunken Irish, grandpa
For me - Dangan Ronpa 2 - couldn’t stop playing it!
I enjoy playing adventure games on my Alienware M17 r4 and my Nintendo Switch OLED.
Last adventure that I really liked was Tex Murphy: Tesla Effect. It is just outstanding game with good humor, acting and quite well balanced puzzles (for my taste at least). It is probably the best adventure game of 2014 for me but I have to play new Sherlock Holmes, Vanishing of Ethan Carter and some others to be sure I really hope Big Finish Games manage to make another Tex Murphy game in near future, but gog`s 75% discount few days ago tells me it didn`t sell exceptionally well, which is a shame. I know they hesitate to use kickstarter again but I hope they find a way regardless.
Playing: 1) Broken Sword 5 2) Road 96
Dreamfall Chapters. It really left me hungry for more in a good way.

This, finished it too soon, but deep inside happy for PS4 rerun in full
graphics glory.
Some adventure games that mentioned to deliver that feeling the past 7 years:
-Phoenix Wright Ace Attorney
-Gabriel Knight (dealt with my fav subjects and a killer moody ost to boot)
-999
-Broken Sword 1
-Broken Sword 5(had reasonable expectation and they were surpassed. I think the soothing soundtrack, that evoked the feeling of the first game, has a large part in this).
-Sherlock Holmes vs. Jack the Ripper (loved wondering around 19th century Victorian London)
-5 days a stranger
Ofcourse there are a number of other games but they don’t befall under the adventure genre.

Me too

At present—no “new” game (that I haven’t played before) since Memoria.
For whatever reason, Dreamfall Chapters didn’t hold my interest.
