Keep forgetting how there's just over a dozen LucasArts adventures, feels like more than that!

The Dig is one of my favorites. The atmosphere is perfect.

Same here, the first seconds of the intro, standing on the edge of the museum spire…. All fantastic moments that cannot be rivaled. And the music of course.

Nice to see Monkey Island coming out on top (and also MI2 being close)... In a lot of ways it's simpler than some of the others, as it doesn't have extensive animated cutscenes, or voices, and the puzzles are mostly quite simple... But it totally nails it where it counts - amazingly atmospheric locations and top notch comedy writing.

Atmosphere, music, characters. To me this is always number 1

Great vid. When you’re finished with the Broken Sword series, would love to see you do a play through of one of these, Fate of Atlantis maybe?

Common misconception, regarding the intent for The Dig script to be made into a film, when the idea actually was for it to be part of his "Amazing Stories" TV series (TV, Film... semantics lol). The 1987 (actual) film Batteries Not Included was also intended to be part of the same series.

@YakWaxLips 3 ай бұрын

Yeah as I was editing this I realised what I said. I purposely didn’t write a script for this video like I usually do as I wanted more of a relaxed feeling and there are a few things I could have recorded again but thought, huh, nevermind.

Yes when I was getting the edit together I watched loads of Grim Fandango as I got sucked into it again 😆

@Cowclops 3 ай бұрын

Interesting that zak mckracken came in that low, I personally enjoyed it because back when this game was like half to 25% of the lucasarts adventure game library, it was worth playing. But compared to what came after, yeah its no fate of atlantis or day of the tentacle.

@YakWaxLips 3 ай бұрын

Yes I get that. Played it a lot in early 90s but by the time Full Throttle was out I hardly touched it

@@YakWaxLips Curse is a weird one since it wasn't made by Ron Gilbert and graphically is so different, and arguably is more "comedy" than the other two. But remembering how many disliked it when it came out I've been astonished how beloved it is. Seems most who played Curse first prefer it.

Top 3 is Day of the Tentacle Curse of Monkey Island Full Throttle For me I loved all these games some of the earliest I played although I've played them all now. Fate of Atlantis I hated because some of the puzzles were just too obscure 😂 especially that feckin hot air balloon

@YakWaxLips 3 ай бұрын

I think every LucasArts game at some point had a stupidly obtuse puzzle! Monkey Wrench being the obvious one.
