Adventure Gamers - Forums

For most genres, 2013 is looking a bit sparse. For RPGs we really only have Wasteland 2 and Shadowrun returns that seem guaranteed to be worth playing, and for action games, Tomb Raider, Bioshock Infinite and The Last of Us. However, 2013 seems to be on track to be huge for adventure games. Games that seem to be currently on track for a 2013 release:

A Good Chance:
SpaceVenture
Jack Houston and the Necronauts
Infamous Adventures
Tex Murphy 6
King’s Quest
Double Fine Adventure
Broken Sword 5: The Serpent’s Curse
Project Mobius
Mages: Initiation
Stasis

A Big Maybe:
A Science Fiction Saga

Potential English localisations:
The Critter Chronicles
Deponia 2

I could be missing some, and of course, anyone of these could be pushed back a year, but for now, it’s looking good

Plus:

Moebius
Hero-U
Broken Sword: The Serpent’s Curse
LSL Reloaded
Mystery X
Beneath a Steel Sky 2 (Mayhap)

but all those titles dont mean anything for 2013 especially , yeah sure i have High Hopes mostly for the future of the adventuring but you know games can get to be Delayed ,Canceled and Disappointing .

Like after of SF the 2 Parts which were great the developers ruined the series by SF3 with some stupid Minigames within.

for me i just hope that come back of 6 Developers of Sierra Scott,Mark.Jane,Al,Corey,Lori to the Adventuring Scene would be up to their history, Successes and Achievements .

I completely forgot to mention Broken Sword 5 That’s another big one, but I highly doubt Beneath a Steel Sky 2 will be a 2013 release. I can’t wait for the Cole kickstarter, since I’m a big QFG fan, but that is another one that looks near impossible for 2013, since the kickstarter isn’t even opening until next month, and the likely RPG elements will probably mean a longer development time than a straight adventure game.

The First Crown (hopefully the Last Crown will be released this year)
Deponia 3
Lily Looking Through

Deponia 3? hasn’t there only been one Deponia game? I also forgot to mention Mages: Initiation from Himalaya.

*Cough….*

Chaos on Deponia will be released in German next month. The English version will take a little longer.

This is an outrage! seriously though, Deponia 1 just came out here on steam How can we be that far behind?

as Tim Schafer (before his Kickstarter)  said

“Adventure Games exist in our Memories , Dreams and Germany “

WAY too little love for Stasis, imo… 

Im like one of those soccer moms who wants to know why her fat little kid with the thick glasses cant also play…

I had not heard of Statis until this thread, but I’ll keep an eye on it

Update: I have decided that Stasis looks like a very interesting game, and I have moved it to my list of most anticipated games of 2013.

I’d like to add Haunted to the list but I’m beginning to think it’ll never see the light of day

Well after reading this thread, I realise that there are a lot of games I want It’s just that most of them are adventure games, and my next fav genre, the western RPG is a bit sparse . Fortunately, Book of Unwritten Tales has been released in the US on Steam I own it, but I have not actually played it yet, same goes for The Next Big Thing from Pendulo. I am seriously surprised to find that Deponia is only the first in a trilogy though. That makes me not want to play it until I am certain that the next two installments will be released in English .
