WOW...Ang

That has got to be the most perfect version of this game that I have seen. You can tell that Lakerz takes care of his games very well . You are one lucky collector. I wonder if you will be a different person after playing these?

Ang earlier today I found an old online adventure magazine and I was looking through the different copies. One of the ones I looked through had a review of The Journey to Wild Divine with screenshots. The screenshots were just beautiful.

Considering the age of the game, I found the graphics in Wild Divine to be eye pleasing and one of the game's strong suits. The add-on game 'Wisdom Quest' is the best one because the player can scroll the graphics 360 degrees. The first game was just static movement. I'm glad that AngDMC got the games in the same condition as when I sent them off.

I never knew that Aaron Conner and Chris Jones were behind 'Amazon: Guardians of Eden'. I honestly don't remember too much about that game as I played it when it first came out. Boy, that must have been around 20 years ago?

Finally, after years on the lookout, I found the case of the rose tattoo for a price I can afford (9 pounds).
Asked the seller to ship it without the box though.
For those of you with heart problems: it was the uninteresting (?) blue rerelease box.
Now I'm hoping it was worth the wait.

I may be wrong about Aaron Conners but it is definitely one of Chris Jones earliest games if not the first. Even the interface is similar to his upcoming Tex Murphy games.

HandsFree, let us know what your impression of the game is.

Amazon Guardians of Eden was Chris Jones's sixth game the first game he was credited with was Echelon in 1988. I think the collaboration of Chris Jones and Aaron Conner's started in 1991 with Under a Killing Moon.

I didn't know about the blue box rerelease of The Rose Tattoo but I do have it in it's beautiful original big box.

Just got these recently -













The little computer propping the games up makes for a nice game holder, eh?

Nice big box of Comer K515. I particularly like that one because I think it is the only game box I have seen where the front and back of the box is exactly the same except in a different language. English/Japanese

What??? A UFO game you have, Ang? Boy, oh, boy am I surprised! Is this an adventure game? Where/how did you get that UFO game, Ang? Wow oh wow - first you get Cassandra Galleries next you get UFO - I sure wish I could be as lucky as you, Ang!
