| Hi! My name is Catnip (Beth). I have been playing computer adventure games since DOS. In high school, we received two desktop computers when personal computers were first released to the public, and I was one of the two chosen to learn how to use them and teach the others. I was hooked. The first game I played was a text game called Zork. The first game I played with graphics was "The Colonel's Bequest," with Laura Bow as the main character. Now, I play adventure games, casual games, console games, RPG's, you name it. I've been on several gaming forums, but I haven't participated in a while. Gelert and I are old friends via the web, so decided to join this site. | |

| Hello, and thank you for the very kind welcome(s)! I'll definitely post over in casual games, ML. I own so many of them and I play them just about every day as a stress reliever. Especially time management! It's great to see you, too, JK! Thank you, Hatshepsut. You are my favorite Pharoah, by the way! Gelert and I have been friends for so long -- I'm just happy that I gave him my e-mail address so very long ago -- I think it was at least 2001. What a beautiful forum he has made, and it looks like he has taken the best of other forums and brought them here, along with much-needed new ideas!!! I haven't seen the grues yet, but that's probably because of my trusty lantern! I never go anywhere without it! | |

| GreyFuss is very protective of his image as a mean ole Grue. Given the nature of grues I think we can say he bites. Just stay out of the dark corners and you'll be ok hatshepsut | |

| Hi. I'm Linda and I like mostly all cartoony games. I like the old point and click games. Some of the first person games make me motion sick, so I try to stick to third person games.
some of my favorite games are: Simon the Sorcerer 1 Broken Sword games GK 1 and 2 Day of the Tentacle All Monkey Island games
Thanks for letting me be a part of this forum. This looks great. Linda | |

I am playing PC games, from the early 90... and off course a heavy fan of adventure games. I have been collecting them for about 10 years, although I have been slowing down the last years....
Nice to be part of this adventure community...

hatshepsut Hey hatshepsut, thank you for the kinds words. I have been collecting adventure games from around 2000, so about 10 years now.... One of my favourite games ever is Rise of the Dragon, it was also the first game i bought, that was around 1993 i believe. But there are so many more that I like... especially games from Lucasarts, but also some other oldies which were more unknown ... like The Dark Eye L8r! | |

right now I am playing Simon 5 and just finished ghost pirates of vooju island. ... Which was a very very fun game. a lot of really fun games lately have been put out. | |

| hi everyone Lovely to see friends here that I've traded & chatted with throughout the years. I started out playing King's Quest 6 - I think. Needless to say, 5 & 7 are also some of my favorites. But Gabriel Knight: Sins of the Father really started me pc gaming. I also like 2 & 3 of the series. And Blackstone Chronicles, Sanitarium, Syberria 1 & 2 and one of my favorites is The Longest Journey. And tons of others. I also like casual games - HOG, match 3 & IHOGS. | |
