One of my recent favorites I never hear anything about is "Zork: Grand Inquisitor" (in Zork's 3D point and click series). It was so good ive been looking for a game like it ever since 😢. It was funny, had super clever, challenging puzzles integrated into the environment, good story, great characters and voice acting.. I thoroughly enjoyed it.
I would have put Syberia on this list, for sure. Some recent games like Quern, Zof, Eyes of Ara, The Room, and House of Da Vinci may all become classics in time as well.
@@airbrushdungeon It's from a different time. It was supposed to be a slow game, because there were technical limitations for the graphics requirements back then. Thanks for the recommendations, though. I'm always looking for good options.
So interesting, Indiana Jones and the fate of Atlantis is the first pointing click adventure game I remember really getting into and always held it in high regard. It’s very cool to see that It’s number one on this list. I was just hoping it would make the list, I was not expecting it to be number one. I love that game so much and have beaten it in all three ways that you can.
Cool that you had Gemini Rue at nr. 2. I enjoyed the game a lot, but felt like the second half dropped in quality. Still a cool and atmospheric game that all lovers of the genre should play. I think the developers of Discoy Elysium draw some inspiration from it.
How on earth are King's Quest VI, Day of the Tentacle, Thimbleweed Park, or some of the other classics like Laura Bow: The Dagger of Amon Ra not included? That's sacrilege. At least two of these were more deserving than some of the ones included here.
My favorites also include the Syberia games, Broken Sword, and Beneath a Steel Sky...but my top place for the best point-and-click adventure game I've ever played has to be The Longest Journey. I haven't played Dreamfall, the sequel, though. I'm glad he mentioned Blade Runner. I loved playing that game.
I think those logic puzzle games like myst and 7th guest should have their own genre, cant stand them compared to inventory based point n click advemtures
you should have called the video: 8 Best Classic Point-and-Click Adventure Games of All Time without,at least, the 2 Best Classic Point-and-Click Adventure Games of All Time 1.Broken Sword: Shadow of the Templars, 2. Day of the Tentacle! I don't mean that in a toxic way, i know there are different opinions but i still have to wonder why these games don't appear here. At least there are a few titles i didn't even know yet, so thanks for the tips!
Help find a game? Its like a Gemine rue grafics, but in the game we have to investigate some crimes, the caracters is a woman and she have some kind a power, habilites on your blood called "blue" or something like that, this powers helps her find clues on the crime scene, and the bodys! I dont remenber the nameeee! Pls Heeelp! I wanna play one more time! Thanks
I agree with #1. And your #3 would make my top 5, maybe even #3. The rest of your list would not make any list of mine. #2 is Day Of The Tentacle. There are so many ahead of what you listed. Full Throttle, The Dig, Flight Of The Amazon Queen, to name but a few.
Tbh, this list is one of the best ive ever seen. And I think all games here were better rated after the release than The Dig, Flight of the Amazon Queen or even Full Throttle. Gabriel Knight and Grim Fandango are considered in the best adventure game of all time discussions. Myst was the best selling game ever until The Sims has appeared, Machinarium and Gemini Rue are modern classics, and Blade Runner was one of the best and most original adventure games of the second half of 90s. Well, Day of the Tentacle is, of course, also mentioned by many as one of the best or even the best adventure game of all time, but i dont think other games you mentioned are worth it more than games from this list.
@@vicek83 I just don't like how ugly Grim Fandango is. And Gabriel Night, like the Broken Sword series, is just boring. Same goes for Machinarium and Gemini Rue. Myst is beautiful, but the world feels dead. Riven is a little better. I never played Blade Runner so I can't speak to it. I don' give a rat's ass what sold well or what the ratings say. I judge for myself by if the game is fun or not. If you like others to do your thinking for you, you go right ahead. There are plenty of games I find much more enjoyable than those on this list. Like The Book Of Unwritten Tales 1 & 2 plus The Critter Chronicles, The whispered World, the Discworld series, Gibbous, Deponia, Bear With Me, Nelly Cootalot etc.
@@airbrushdungeon I can agree with the choice of The Whispered World and The Book of Unwritten Tales 1. The humor in Deponia just irritated me, and The Book of Unwritten Tales 2 was a bit boring to me. If this were my list of favorite adventures - I would add Sanitarium and The Longest Journey.

Syberia was boring as all get out. If you want more modern, there's Gibbous, or Deponia.

How the heck did you forget Broken Sword - The Shadow of the Templars? Easily the best of them all!

I would have mentioned Broken Sword, Day of the Tentacle, Beneath a Steel Sky and Riven wich is far superior than Myst...

Yep. your list is pretty close to mine. I would include The Dig. BTW the sequels to The Longest Journey are worth playing...
Ohh, yeah. The Longest Journey was insanely good.
The best for me is "12 minutes" and "there is no game wrong dimension"
What game is the one that appears at 0:08, just behind the title for the video?

watched this expecting Broken Sword to feature.............. what?!?.... how is it not there!

The Broken Sword games suck. So overrated.
@@airbrushdungeon They are easily the best!

Did you find?
@@FilipeIria87 not yet :(
I think the game you are looking for is called 'whispers of a machine'. Hope this helps.
@@soundwarehouse9524thanks! It's the same one! Helps a lot!

@@vicek83 While you're irritated by humor, I require it.
@@vicek83 Toonstruck / Grim Fandango / Sanitarium / Discworld / Indiana Jones
Thimbleweed Park should have been on the list.
Great as they are Myst and Grim Fandango aren’t Point and click adventures. Also where are Broken Sword and Day of the Tentacle?
The originals were, although the remastered versions aren't anymore.
What about neverhood
Quest for glory not being on the list is wild.
Seeing the word wild used so much lately is wild
How can I emulate these?
why? All of them are on steam.
No one mentions legend of kyrandia 🤔
Syberia ?
lol, mostly are pixelated game, and Syberia its not there...
Completely lost on me
Not even close.
No, not my list.
