Under a killing moon, or something else from the fmv adventure era.
-
After the end of monkey island, I remembered this classic.
Featuring fully explorable 3d environments and point and click for doing things. And puzzles. I think this 4 cd classic is worth a play.
It has three sequels and is published by the people that did links 386.
Also features voice of James Earl Jones!
Other similar era games would be cool, like Gabriel Knight 2!
This game has a weird-ass story. Really like the setting and characters, but the more you learn, the weirder it gets. Still, would be up to revisit this one!
I have had this game in my steam library for quite a while now and never gotten around to playing it. This would be a nice excuse to fire it up and get through it.
Under a Killing Moon was a masterpiece, along with its sequel, The Pandora Directive: great actors, great atmosphere, multiple endings, sometimes creepy, sometimes funny, a perfect mix of action and puzzle solving.
Not mentioning also the full 3d enviroment (apart some nuances), it would be great to dedicate one episode of yours to UAKM or TPD.
UaKM doesn’t have multiple endings, neither does overseer (I might remember wrong), I still haven’t finished TPD, as it crashed last time I played it a few years ago.
you are right, UAKM does NOT have multiple endings, only TPD have them, many of them are very interesting.. where did you got stuck?
never played Overseer
Don’t think I got stuck, it just crashed dosbox.
Overseer and tesla effect are good additions to the series.
I’m late to the party, just finished Under a Killing Moon and it was largely enjoyable. So much, in fact, that I just gifted myself the Pandora Doctrine 🙂
My vote for FMV based adventure games would be Gabriel Knight: The beast within (But only after playing the first game – which is not FMV)
The Under a killing moon series is quite good though
This is definitely one of my all time favorite adventure games. At the time it came out it was quite the beast with 4 cd’s and hefty requirements. Great acting, fully explorable environments and James Earl Jones! Thank goodness for Dosbox….now I can play this with one click and no cd’s!
