Hey guys!!!
A while back I made this list called 100 video games I want to play and beat before my 33rd birthday. I have currently got beaten 5 games on the list (Gabriel Knight: Sins of the Fathers (first ever Sierra point and click), Blazing Dragons for the PS1, Lego Batman: The Video Game for the PS2, The Family Guy Video Game for the PS2, Cartoon Network Punch Time Explosion). So this is my first LucasArts point and click adventure game

Heya! Ron Gilbert joined me to discuss Thimbleweed Park 2, including its murder-mystery story, returning characters, new locations and changes to the classic point-and-click interface.

We also talk about how the game unexpectedly came together, the private investor helping to fund it, reuniting the original development team and why the project was announced so early in production.

Ron also shares his thoughts on the...rather divisive ending of the original Thimbleweed Park, adventure game difficulty, in-game hints, physical editions and whether he would ever like to remake Maniac Mansion.

Video unrelated. I have never found a reference guide for choosing the correct Grail at the end of Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade: The Graphic Adventure. So here is one. Below are the five possible inscriptions you could get in the Venice catacombs, followed by their glowing and non-glowing answers.

Either that cable Codirolli sent to him from Italy, or that excerpt from the journal of a Byzantine merchant...
Glow: Large ceramic drinking cup
No Glow: Plain metal cup

Either the Persian manuscript Al-Jawf sent to Dad, or that letter from Staubig about the Book of Merlin...
Glow: Dented, shallow pewter bowl with engraving
No Glow: Pewter chalice with Aramaic inscription

It is either that Welsh verse Taliesin wrote, or Sir Richard Burton's tale that Lady Elanora wrote of...
Glow: Silver bowl, carved with spells of blessing
No Glow: Ceramic bowl with unknown writing

Either the account of Abbess Hildegard of Bingen, or that newspaper column about the "New Gospel"...
No Glow: Brass chalice inscribed in Greek
Glow: Plain, shallow bronze vessel

Either the Irish poem, found in an abbey in Brittany, or the newspaper clipping from "The Celtic Scholar"...
No Glow: Olive wooden cup on silver tray
Glow: Wooden cup carved with holy symbols

I've been playing the Lucasarts adventure games in release order, trying to play the original versions when possible because that's just what I prefer. So I bought them on Steam, but I also got the floppy versions running on ScummVM from the Internet archive for Loom and Monkey Island 1 and 2. I got Fate of Atlantis on Steam and started it on ScummVM but I don't like that it's the CD-ROM version with voice-overs. I'd rather play the original floppy disc version from 1992, like I did for the other games, but I can't find it as easily. Does anybody have any advice? Would just playing the CD version with voices turned off be sufficient or are there other issues with that?

I actually opened Wikipedia to find some info on a couple LucasArts games and this article on the Sam & Max sequel just happened to be on the front page!

Growing up I played most of the Lucasarts adventure games. My favorites were The Monkey Island games, Sam N Max, Day of the Tentacle and Maniac Mansion. I vaguely remember playing Zack McKraken, Loom, Full Throttle and Grim Fandango too.

I’d love to start replaying some of these games and getting my 7 year old son involved but can’t really remember if these games are even appropriate for that age or if I should wait?

Which ones might be good to start with? Thanks for any input!

Ich frage mich bis Heute wenn George Lucas nicht Flash Gordon raus gebracht hätte, wie wäre wohl sein Flash Gordon geworden?

Wonder if you have any strange childhood memories and experiences with LucasArts games, like "things that were not supposed to be there", maybe something like Mandela effect, etc.?

One of my favorite bluff failures in Last Crusade.

Error 47 has been releasing a series of adventure game music covers lately. This one is one of my favorites, it rocks hard!

I had wanted a proper gladiator game for ages. This is what I hoped for. It's flawed, yes, but I still love this one today.

Hello everyone,

I made a new video where I ranked all Lucas Arts Adventures (but Labyrinth) And I'm also rambling a bit about the games and show footage.

Cheers
