There might be some other "Oldie users" hiding in the background here. It's 
nice to have people posting here again.

Good you are enjoying it. I might get it sometime.

I didn't play any of the Quest for Glory or Space Quest, but I remember they 
were quite popular, just not my cup of tea.
I liked most Police Quest games . I can't believe you didn't like KQ7. KQ8 
was a dud to most people. But I thought KQ7 was a great game and have played 
it quite a few times. Most people I knew at the time who played it liked it. 
My daughter was playing it at the same time as me thought it was fabulous. I 
played KQ 6  and KQ7 which was good. She played them too plus KQ5 which I 
think was made quite a lot earlier than later  KQ series.I bought it at a 
bargain price one time but couldn't get into it.

I thought it might have potential but when I played the demo, the story 
didn't seem very interesting.I don't always go by demoes. But gives you an 
idea bout the game. I played the demo of  "Night of the Rabbit" months ago, 
and I didn't like the graphics. But it was on sale on Gog one weekend and 
decided to get it. Gog sometimes has good prices on certain games on 
weekends. It took me a little time to get into the game, but as the game 
went on, I liked the acting and story and graphics seemed to suit the story. 
I thought it was a pretty good game.

I am stuck in Tesla day 3 and may have to re-play the whole day again though 
re-played a lot of it already.

I agree, it has definitely been years and years of adventure game drought, 
except for a few good adventure games released here and there. I wonder what 
Dreamfall Chapters will be like.I played The longest journey which was a 
good game and also played Dreamfall which I liked even better.

Okay, I am done rambling!  :)

That's ok - ramble on :)
