Guess what I brought?

Post by o'dium »

Remember many, many many years ago, there used to be a game called "The 7th Guest"?

Well, I brought myself a copy, to relive the geekness that was all those years ago.

Not even sure if it will work yet but hey, heh. Its gonna make me cringe so bad now, i just know it, but it was worth it.

Oh, and i found a porn DVD just sitting on the side of the road on the way home, so i thought, meh, ill have that...

7th guest is where its at. the music is great!

11th hour was gay. but thats because it didnt have Graeme Devine's artistic influence in it

hardest puzzle by far was the rook puzzle. goddammit it had me stumped for weeks. everything after that, even the last puzzle with the lights were relatively a breeze

Was it Graeme Devine or Paul Jaquays who worked on 7th Guest?
I'm thinking it was Paul, although it might not have been 7th Guest, it might have been 11th Hour...

God I loved that game. The first game that made a huge impression of being immersive and mentally challenging. Next came Myst, and after that I've never found another game in that genre that I liked even half as much. :(
