This is the sequel to 3 Skulls of the Toltecs. I hope it will be good. Very Happy


EDIT: Well, all hopes are gone. I like adventures, and this one gets boring real fast. Standard point-and-click adventure, but you have to do tasks to proceed in the game. You can't leave a place without feeding your horse. This gets annoying real fast. I may try it again tomorrow.

its a pitty that people are not interested in classic adventure games these days, only 6 (including my own 2) replys for such a great game Sad
they just want action, action and some more action. so its no wonder companys do not want to make adventure games anymore. it sucks. Sad

this is a kickass adventure game, im having alot of fun playing it.
the only problem is the camera. it tends to give me the wrong viewing angle at times Smile but other than that its great.
i love the classic "you character can fit anything in the pockets". Smile

best release in quite some time on the pc.

Dang it. I like adventure games, but I dislike westerns. I'm torn! Looks like a good game too...dang it dang it. Don't really have time to play much as it is, though, so I guess it's not happening Sad Still, thanks for the info pallebrun.

Amen. Though sometimes, in the midst of all that forgetting, I'm struck by a pang along the lines of "Damn, how long ARE those blank CDs going to live, anyway?" That's what keeps me awake some nights. These glorious towers of data, filled with the pleasure of gaming goodness...on unreliable media. Memorex, don't make me curse your name in five years!

Too bad adventure games are so linear, often just one solution to a problem. Doesnt seem to have happened much in like 20 years in this genre which is, i guess, the reason why most people doesnt bother anymore..

I am 33 years old, and I LOVED adventure games of the golden age. But it's so true, that they could'nt evolve for so much time that it's simply ridiculous. WHY not give adventure puzzles multiple solutions?

And to reply to Injurious: yes, it's a lack of imagination, but not belonging to the "youth of today", but to the game designers.... Rolling Eyes And "Youth of today" is no more stupid: I hate generalisations...

why do you think developers dont make as many adventure games
today? simple because those that buy games (mostly youths) do not want them. they dont want to think in a game, they want non stop action and not some brain workout which many adventure games really are.
the lack of replys in this thread proves that and the "best selling games" charts Smile

if you want multiple solutions there are other games for that.
adventure games is harder the way they are (1 solution) and that is good.
i really hope we wont see some adventure game that have multiple solutions, that would suck :/

it would also make it more unrealistic in my oppinion. the way i see on adventure games is that im playing an already existing story and its my job to put the story together. so if there were multiple solutions it would be totally weird since you cant change an already existing story.
but thats my way of seeing adventure games. im sure others might see it from another perspective Smile

and no one thinks that only young people play games, thats not what my post was about at all.
they just dont want to play these type of games for the above reasons. Smile

Multiple solutions would be great! Or at least make the game somehow recognize if you're stuck. The game should give you some hints if you're stuck for a long period of time and you are only running around aimlessly and trying stupid things. Hints like a helpful phone call from someone for example. Things like that. Because in an adventure game if you're stuck you're stuck. There's nothing you can do. You can't really train to get better and advance in the game.

this game actually have multiple solutions for some things.
1 example is the belt. you can either buy it or find a way to steal one. thats just one example.

No, sorry, it's simply not true. Look at the succes of RPGs (KotOR, Fable) strategy games (Civilization III, Rome: Total War), simulations (The Sims: the best selling game ever) and I could go on. Certainly, games need eye candy, hype and novelty, now that's the domain in which adventure games are lacking...

if you want multiple solutions there are other games for that.
adventure games is harder the way they are (1 solution) and that is good.

Wrong again. Just because a problem has two or more solution, it doesen't mean, that it's too easy. There can be multiple HARD solution. You know what is it instead? Unrealistic. And THAT'S one of the glaring fault of old school adventure games.

it would also make it more unrealistic in my oppinion.

Very Happy No, it's the contrary IMHO.

the way i see on adventure games is that im playing an already existing story and its my job to put the story together. so if there were multiple solutions it would be totally weird since you cant change an already existing story.

OK, I admit, that it's more DIFFICULT to make an adventure game this way. Designers need more IMAGINATION for it.. . Very Happy

but thats my way of seeing adventure games. im sure others might see it from another perspective Smile

and no one thinks that only young people play games, thats not what my post was about at all.

And it isn't true for the above reasons. Smile Intelligent games sells. Action games sells too. But it was always that way. You just have to make the game sexy and interesting...

i wouldnt call rpg games a brain workout man Wink
and strategy games have action in them, not all but many.
i did not mean action as in genre i meant action as in the meaning of the word action.

your right games like civilisation needs some thinking but its another sort of brain workout. the main reason why games like civilisation works is in my opinion that in games like civilisation things always happen, you always have something to do and its the same in all the other games you said. but in adventure games you can be stuck for hours or even days in some of the harder games without shit to do, just roaming around thinking out a way to fix the problem.
thats a real brain workout in my opinion. you HAVE to find a solution or you simple wont get further in the game. and this is a real turnoff for the yunger people of today.
