ok fair enough, how about operation steatlh? although i know i really enjoyed this game i can't remember a great deal about it. I remember the 1st task you do, i think you're in an airport and you have to go to the toilets to activate some briefcase/spy device

Police Quest 3

Quite simply my most favourite Point & Click adventure of all time.

Just bought the Sierra Police Quest Collection to relive those gaming highlights only to find out they havent removed the completley useless copy protection which requires access to the manual to get past (Questions are answered in the manual) & the PDF manual on the disc is actually for the Kings Quest collection, so I've had to send the blasted thing back :mad:

Other than that check out...

Ripper (Great FMV adventure with Christopher Walken)
Gabriel Knight (More classic Sierra gaming...why did they stop making these??

)
7th Guest (Another Great FMV game)
Colonels Bequest (Sierra again)
Dark Seed (Gieger Inspired Horror Adventure)
Dreamweb (Classic Cyberpunk Adventure)
Bloodnet (Fantastic Vampire Cyberpunk Adventure)
Phantasmagoria 1 & 2 (Super freaky FMV Adventure...really worried me when I was playing it for the first time all those years ago)

Think that's enough for now

Enjoy

The first "Syberia" game is well worth a look.
...why hasn't anyone mentioned the discworld games yet?...

Becuase I forgot the blasted things...they were fapping hillarious at times, Eric Idles turn as Rincewind really is the icing on the cake.

I loved Universe on the amiga, great atmosphere, not sure if you can get it on pc though. Beneath a steel sky was also quality.
