What is this game all about? I never, ever, ever heard of it. Where did you get all these goodies, GF?


I go on Amazon, ebay, and Half.com mostly for my goodies.

Its in the Adventure Point Data base that Gelert works so hard to keep up with for us.

"Actually it is the wayward adventure gamers that lay these rare games at my feet when they have lost there way and wandered into the shadows of Castle GreyFuss. Simply a bribe so this Grue wont make a smorgasborg of their carcass."

Note to self - No coffee stops at Castle GreyFuss

Ok!! My internet is finally back and working at my house. This is going to be a big one. It is all the things I have recieved over the last month and a bit (minus the Kiyeko I already posted).


Jolly Rover - I noticed there are Edna and Harvey copyright details on the back cover of this.

Maniac Mansion - I grew up playing the NES version, wanted to give this one a go next time I play it.
Drowned God - Second attempt at getting this game. The first copy I bought got lost in the mail from America
IHNMAIMS - Hard to find at a good price - This one is a little damaged
Comer - Got it for half the price I seen a copy go for just a month ago.


Fatty Bear's Birthday Suprise - I know everyone is jealous of this one, just calm down.
Daedalus Encounter - Interesting box.

Hyperman - Did this game come in a big box?

I better get playing.

Good haul! I've never heard of Fatty Bear's. Will check that out.

Edit. Yes. Hyperman came in a big box. With some sort of extra if I remember. Glasses, or something (??). Will try and dig mine out if no-one posts theirs first.

Excellent haul Mullane. You are amassing quite a collection, I believe you have the fever. I particularly love the Drowned God and Robot City big boxes. You do realize that with all the games you have to play that before you know it you may wake up one day and be 50 years old.

Just checked the GB review of Drowned God. The review said it's not an easy game to get a hold of, but I found a bunch of them (used) on Amazon, so I bought a copy - it was listed as "like new".

Now I'll say that the total price for the game was $12.99 - this makes up for the deal I missed out on back when I had a post in the AP Trading Center

Gelert, I did not see Drowned God in your AP Adventure Database.

Drowned God here and here Drowned God in AP Data base.


Very nice arrivals Mullane. I love my big box Drowned God

It's there and has been from the beginning AlienBZ.

I do enjoy looking at this thread... ya'll have some very very nice looking games

Folks, in case my copy of Drowned God (from Amazon.com) does not have a manual (it contains the solution to the chalice/flames in the Knight's Templar puzzle) this solution is not in the w/t's I looked at, is there a way that I can get a copy of the manual or at least the solution to the chalice/flames in the Knight's Templar puzzle?

I tried checking at replacementdocs.com, but they don't have a copy of this manual.

When you get Drowned God if it doesn't have the manual then ask for help with the puzzle in the Adventure Game S.O.S. thread.

I just bought:

The Next Big Thing - Campain Edition
The Black Mirror - Collectors Edition
Lost Horizon

Very nice buys Unicorn. You are so lucky to get them I'm still trying to get my own copy of Lost Horizon. The Next Big Thing looks good. Tell us about it when you play it

Here's what 'The Adventures of Hyperman' comes with Mullane . .



Parts of this are sealed and I haven't yet played it.

I remember playing a demo of it when I was quite young. I believe it is similar to the Pajama Sam (and Freddi Fish, Putt-Putt) games, so nothing to get too excited about, unless you like them of course.

The fever indeed. I also collect console rpgs (bigger collection that my pc adventures
) So probably more like 120 years old. People live that long, dont they?

And thanks for posting that pic Gelert. Now I know what I'm looking for.

Nice buys Unicorn. I am jealous of Germany getting lots of new adventures first.

What?? I thought it was the UK getting boatloads of these new adventures first?

Mullane, Ceremony of Innocence is a beautiful piece of software. I had it and gave it away and now I wish I had it back again. It's more of an interactive story than a game, but wow, very moving.

Do you like these?

AYAOTD is sealed

Sweet finds Greyfuss !

Thanks Mr Faust

Its hard enough to find Are you Afraid of the Dark in its original big box let alone a new/sealed one I think. And Opsys is hard to find just a Jewel case one so I am tickled to have its big box also.

Wow very nice new additions GreyFuss. I love those big boxes

hatshepsut

Nice GreyFuss! Loving the Opsys box.

I also have some more new arrivals.

Both new and sealed - Cost = 1x Arm & 1x Leg


Chewy - German Box and the english version in JC. I cheated again, but I like this box better than the US release.
