a neglected genre for me has been point n click adventure games, if i want to get into the genre, where should i start?
I liked Simon the Sorcerer, shame the series went to shit with StS 3D
Day of the Tentacle
Monkey Island series (original ones, not the remakes)
Police Quest
I Have No Mouth And I Must Scream
>>332990512
in that order?
>>332990907
Yes
If you can make it through Police Quest, then IHNMAIMS will be relatively easy.
Also check out 7th Guest and Scratches if you want some horror ones.
Snatcher
Full Throttle is pretty good and accessible so you should probably start there.
You you definitely try Day of the Tentacle, monkey Island 1-3, Sam&Max Hit the Road and Grim Fandango after that.

im thinkin about startin with "Indiana jones and the fate of atlantis" (op pic) just cause it seems older than the others.
good idea?
id prefer to start with something early, short and easy..
Legend of Kyrandia
Sam n Max: Hit the Road
Curse of Enchantia
The Dig
Zak McKracken and the Alien Mindbenders
Teen Agent
Gabriel Knight series, the first specifically
And the rest people recommend here (but i emphasize Monkey Island too)

>id prefer to start with something early, short and easy..
Then why are you playing adventure games? The only way they're short and easy is if you're reading a guide, at which point you've negated the point of the games.
And if you want true old stuff, go play King's Quest.

i just meant in comparison to other adventure games
start with the accessible ones then progress for the smoothest experience..
If you want something short and easy, try the Telltale Sam + Max games (start with maybe season 2 or 3) - they're self-contained, about 3-5 hours each, and they aren't all that difficult.

Any early Lucasarts title will be fine.

Except Maniac Mansion.
Do not start with Maniac Mansion.

The only modern takes on it I can think of are the Zero Escape games and Telltale games. It's kinda point and clicky. Also Puttputt saves the zoo.

It was one of my first PC games, I loved it. Though I was pretty young at the time, so my parents had to help me solve some puzzles
I'd definitely play one with a voice track, as it is. The text-only ones are probably a bit older than you care to stand

The Whispered World, the Book of Unwritten Tales and the Deponia series aren't bad, but I think they tried too hard too emulate the Lucasarts games from the 90's. They'd be good starters if some puzzles weren't completely obnoxious.

The only point & click I've played all the way through is Gabriel Knight: Sins of the Father. Was a lot of fun. Tim Curry doing a Cajun accent is some of the funniest shit ever.
Hate how many 'DO THIS VERY SPECIFIC THING OR DIE' situations there are in adventure games though.

Quest for Glory VGA
Life is Strange
Until Dawn
Layers of Fear
Gone Home
kings quest vi

As someone who played many Lucasarts titles back in the day, Fate of the Atlantis is perhaps one of their best game. Its story was specifically written, so it isn't a movie tie-in or anything of the sort. The puzzles make sense most of the time [but can be difficult], and the setting is really cool, especially if you like Indiana Jones in general.
