Full Throttle: I can still tell you exactly where in that wall to kick to open the secret door, 30 years later.
Full Throttle is bar none, the childhood video game seared into my brain played from a beige home MacOS 9 computer via a floppy disk. I could recite this game word for word. As an adult I got into motocycling because of this game. There is simply something so compelling about this world and it pains me there has been such a dearth of content of anything related since this game ... guess I'll have to make it?
Legacy of Time is my absolute favorite game ever! I replayed it so many times as a kid, I've never met anyone else who loved it. No matter how many times I play, the puzzles are good enough that I sometimes can't remember the solutions, especially the one with the tunnels in Shangri-la.
I eventually bought it on GoG because my discs won't run in new machines and I can't bare to be without it. Still keep the discs though
That time travel premise is great! You just have to go for it when doing impossible stuff. Make it as stupid as possible.
Are we going to get the Excavation of Hobbs Barrow in one of these lists? I'm not big into adventure games, but that one was somthing special.
it is outside the period of time we're covering but I have played it and liked it a lot!
