Swingin' Ryan Posted April 5, 2005 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2005 They don't make enough point and click adventure games anymore. It's all fast-paced guns and car games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Me and Parvati Posted April 6, 2005 Report Share Posted April 6, 2005 Have they stopped making the monkey island games?As far as I know' date=' there were only the three.

Now, where's my rope, lump of putty and stick...............Not sure how you get three, Monkey Island, Return to Monkey Island, Curse of Monkey Island and Escape from Monkey Island.There has to be a fifth game seeing as the Voodoo lady had a five game deal with LucasArts.

Me and Parvati Posted April 6, 2005 Report Share Posted April 6, 2005 And anyway, three or four, we still need some games where we have to think. Simon the Sorcerer, Indiana Jones, Full Throttle, anyone? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SensesWorkingOverTime Posted April 8, 2005 Report Share Posted April 8, 2005 Murray the skull was my favourite character."Then i'll roll through the gates of hell!"I think he was in the curse of monkey island.he also made an appearance in Escape From Monkey Island....wasnt as good though.He had potential to be as good as Sam the Salesman as far as recurring characters go.

Willum Posted April 8, 2005 Report Share Posted April 8, 2005 There is something in the water...a hook thing...you can use it to lower and raise that step...you need to get the dog onto the step thing - using the dog biscuits - and then use the hook to lower the step, the dog falls in the water and then you can climb over the fence...Sorry, thats not really specific enough but thats the jist of what you do.

Child_of_bodom Posted April 10, 2005 Report Share Posted April 10, 2005 I have a double gamepak thing of 'Day Of The Tentacle' and 'Sam And Max Hit The Road' but I could never get the bastard thing to work on this PC. Time for another go methinks...Look for a piece of software on the net called scummvm. It is an emulator thing for Point and click games pre pentium era Should get them running and it is so worth itAnyone else like grim fandango, not quite point and click but very very good none the less, also broken sword 3 has dissappeared from shops in Aberdeen and hasen't been seen on the PC for months Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
