It’s interesting/depressing just how hard this next one is:
Name 5 adventures that were designed by 5 distinct women who never worked at Sierra. If you’re really, really desperate, a writing (rather than design) credit is acceptable.

I’ll just add more info on women in games:
Zork: Grand Inquisitor and Zork: Nemesis were designed by Sara Margaret Stohl and Cecilia Barajas respectfully.
Muriel Tramis - basically a synonym for Coktel Vision.
[s]Alexis Lang - designed Voyage, Return to the Mysterious Island and Dracula 3.[/s]
Marianne Tostivint - designed ECHO: Secrets of the Lost Cavern, Nostradamus: The Last Prophecy and The Secrets of Da Vinci Smile

Alexis Lang - designed Voyage, Return to the Mysterious Island and Dracula 3.

Actually, in French Alexis is a man’s name. (I’ve met Alexis Lang and he’s definitely a guy.)

A few more female designers I had in mind included Katie Hallahan (Cognition, and regular poster here), Mary DeMarle (lead writer and co-designer on Myst III and IV) and the brilliant Rika Suzuki (Hotel Dusk, Last Window).

Oops, I’m terribly sorry then, I didn’t know Pan His name came to mind cause I really like those 3 games from Kheops.

Edit: I added Marianne Tostivint instead - she designed several less popular games for Kheops. She is definitely a woman, I checked it out Smile

There’s also Deirdra Kiai (Squinky here) who developed Dominique Pamplemousse and a string of other games…

Diego mentioned Chivalry Is Not Dead by Deirdra Kiai.

Ah, ok. My bad.

So, how about those 4 AGs with shark fins? Tongue

Ok, lets see - Monkey Island - yes, Missing on Lost Island - I’d say that’s a shark, Ghost Pirates of Vooju Island - THIS will suffice, and Larry 7 - yeap. Grin You may continue.
