That was a fun and informative video! Would like to see you do a retrospective on the successor, Universe. :)
What about newet titles like Wolf is among us?
You got me hooked for the whole 2 hours 👊🔥
ANTE REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
complet shot in the dark does anyone remember a game with a teeneger run from a guy with a hook for a hand in a maze
@@unrest_pegasus Labyrinth?
@@TholinGamer it was cartoonie qte type of game and I remember if you take a wrong turn you get eaten by a frog and it was a lot of trail and error
Great video, thanks! Do you know the name of the point-and-click adventure game where you play as a protagonist in a long black coat, resembling Dracula? Or maybe you are Dracula, I can't remember exactly... I think the game came out in the 2000s.
This is exactly what I was looking for. Thanks for putting all of this together!!
Great Video, Thank you for the Unboxing, I luv this game since The first releasein PC
One of my favorite Sierra Games
Thank you gunpei yokoi you made the original nintendo gameboy possible
Great Review, weird Troligy of 3 different Gamestyles: Classic Point and Click, FMV and 3D Gameplay
Thank you so much for this
it's funny how the Germans are still rooting for those Genres till today
Wow, what an amazingly interesting and extensive historical review on adventure games. This and other content on your channel is A++ in quality! I lived my childhood in the 80s and youth in the 90s around these games so I really much enjoyed this video. For me the point & click adventure game genre is still number #1 even nowadays only very few of them can achieve commercial success. Yet I still celebrate the community of retro gamers among whom these games continue to relive. Kudos to you all for this! 💪😀👍
I'm here from Twitter, Roberta sent me
φιλαρακι, ελληνας ετσι?
Κανει μπαμ :)

I REALLY want to see Shivers done in VR. The 7th Guest has been done.
There's been no fall. Adventure games still sell pretty well. It's just that the whole gaming market expanded way beyond what it used to be and now some games sell way more. Anyway, there's plenty of excellent point and click adventure games that came out in the last decade. Thimbleweed Park, The Witness, Kathy Rain, Syberia: The World Before, Gemini Rue, The Cat Lady, A Golden Wake, The Wardrobe, The Cat Lady, Unavowed, and all the stuff from Quantic Dream, like Detroid Become Human, just to mention a few off the top of my mind. Not to mention the various remasters. Recently they released an enhanced version of Another Code on Switch that implements a bunch of new Features. Oh, and what about the Shadowgate remake? Plenty thereof.
Will they ever revive this series for the modern consoles?
For me it was the Infocom text games that drew me into adventure games, how curious not to see them mentioned here
Great video man! Keep it up.
my most favourite childhood game ☺
Very nicely-explained. I'd heard that sales for Mask of Eternity were somewhere in the 750k range, which would put it in the same overall range as its predecessors, and (setting aside how much it departed from the rest of the series, and what the fan reaction to that was,) I wonder if the problem there wasn't mainly to do with budgeting issues and being a little too ambitious too early. Yes; 3D graphics were new and "cool" back then, but as Daedelic demonstrated, they're not strictly necessary to make successful adventure games, even in the modern age. It doesn't seem like the actual number of adventure game fans has decreased since those times either, since modern adventure games sell about as many copies as the old ones did. It's just that it's a smaller market, by comparison to other genres, and therefore one where maintaining a modest budget is important for making a profit. At least, that's what I've been thinking about recently on this subject. If so, that would make adventure games better for independent developers anyway, just because they can be produced less expensively and are more likely to be noticed by graphic adventure fans when they are produced.
Wonderful video - you can really see the amount of work that went into this comprehensive history - thank you
I'm curious, where are you from? I cannot place your accent exactly. I'm sincerely curious, if it's okay to ask. I started playing the King's Quest games in 1988. My first game was The Perils of Rosella. It's a very happy memory playing this with a childhood friend
No worries, I am from Greece to answer your question about my heavy accent :) kq was the third Sierra franchise that i ve played back in the day.started with quest for glory which still is my favorite series
the 2s version has touch screen
Cute little sevice with cute screen size, do you have invader game ? Its a shmup
I really love how cute this device
Great video. I hope to see something new from you soon.
One of my favourite games as a teen. I didn't have a pc but used to go to a friend's on Saturdays and we played together
Really nice memories and nostalgia with Shivers 1. one of the best games I used to play. So far, I consider it is the best old PC games and I am a fan of it. I have a question; how come there hasn't been a remake of this game? The story, the game's directing quality, and also the soundtrack are really excellent. I am very happy that there are people who love this game and talk about it. I believe the remake version will have big impact with new unreal engine with the same soundtracks but with high 4K output with adding few stories too.
Great game indeed.the reason we have seen no modern remakes is the same with all sierra games.sierra's rights after the selling of the company,then the bankrupcy,etc ended up under Activision (later Activision Blizzard).Activision had no interest whatsoever in revisiting its adventure games portfolio.Now they have been acquired by Microsoft.We may see some new developments regarding sierra's IP...hopefully!
1:22 I always thought Space Quest's theme sounded much more similar to John William's Superman theme
SO COOL you included Leisure Suit Larry 7 in this! Thank you! Looking forward to putting all my old PC games on the retroid!!!
This game is support 30 seconds video capture on Switch?
Let's go back a lot of decades 💀
How
Because it's android but using a usb mouse wouldn't be enjoyable tho
@@dm.3145 k
Wizard and the Princess graphics remind me of Mario Paint, when you would load a saved drawing 😊
Don't tell me you gave up bro, pls
YEiiiiis! THIS! Is what I was looking for 😊 I’ve loved SHIVERS since I was a kid, and not only are there very few let’s plays that include a good commentary, but there’s only 2 videos that cover Easter eggs.. I just wanna hear someone talk about the game itself 😂
One of the artists who worked on the game just last year released some content on YT that shows stuff that wouldve been featured in the sequel
hi, at the retro arch menu doesn't appear me more opions after that box with a plus signal like in your. Can you help me?
I can't move my character in Grim fandango can someone help me😢
Wasn’t sure the older games got remakes . I used to watch my brother play the serious old school ones
This was one of my favorite franchises back in the day when I played PC games...Decent was my other fav
Great video! Have you played the Hero-U game that was created by the same people who made Quest for Glory? I feel that the adventure genre might have a little reawakening in the future on computer as well.
Nooooooooo, there will never be fall for them...!!!
I love Simon but it was a huge mistake to make the 3rd in 3D, never played it because it's too slow and boring.
Fans want a true sequel to Simon 3d because of its cliffhanger ending. If you watch it on UA-cam you can understand why it needs a true sequel. I'm the fan list on the end credits of Simon 3D JJ Levy.
We just got the true sequel to Monkey Island 2 so maybe, someday.
I loved this game when I was a kid. I didn’t think anyone else even knew about it these days!
It's probably time to bring back adventure games.
