Altered Destiny	Accolade	1990	THIS DEFINITELY ISN'T KANSAS. An Animated Graphic Adventure™ One minute you're just a guy eating nacho-flavored popcorn. The next you're sucked through a TV into a fantastic alien world filled with exotic landscapes and lifeforms. Welcome to the surprisingly new destiny of P. J. Barrett. Follow P.J. through a marvelous universe of acid pools and frags, quirls and fluboxes, floaters and wraiths. There's a deep mystery here that only he — with your help — can solve. Put away the reality you've known. You won't be needing it on this trip.

Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade: The Graphic Adventure	Lucasfilm Games	1989	Europe, 1938. The Lost Ark was just a warm-up! Now Adolf Hitler is after the most powerful talisman of all - the Holy Grail. A few brave men stand in his way. Fortunately, one of them is Indiana Jones. And this time, he has his dad with him. The bad guys are in your face all the way - Nazis, mercenaries, traitors and spies. Not to mention everything the Luftwaffe can throw at you. Can you handle the heat? If you can, you just might earn a higher I.Q. (Indy Quotient) than the man with the whip and the hat.* [82]* [83]* [49]* [62]* [22]* [1]* [52]Minimal configuration: EGA / VGA monitor. 512Ko RAM.

Jones in the Fast Lane	Sierra On-Line	1991	Jones in the Fast Lane is a simulation of a person's life, presented as a turn-based strategy game. You can play by yourself, or compete with other human players or the computer-controlled Jones. At the beginning of the game you determine what your goals are, in four categories - Money, Happiness, Education and Career: the higher your goals, the longer the game. The game itself is presented as something akin to a board game. The board represents the city where you live. Each turn (here, a turn represents a week of your life) you have limited time to act, and you have to choose how to spend it. Walking somewhere else costs you time, as well as working, learning, and looking for a job. The first thing you should do is looking for a job at an employment center. Since initially you have no education, experience or work history, you can only choose the simplest, lowest-paying jobs - such as a janitor or a cook. Later on, as you enroll into various courses at an university, you'll get smart enough to get the high-ranking jobs. But remember that some jobs require you to buy and wear expensive clothes. Work isn't mandatory, and you can dedicate time to working whenever you feel like it. The money you get can be spent in many ways. You can buy a snack at a fast food restaurant (you should eat something each week, or next week you'll have less time due to hunger). You can buy some appliances for your house, lottery tickets, newspapers and more. You can also store your money in the bank (a wise choice, considering the ubiquity of pickpockets) or invest into stock market. Remember that you have to pay rent for your house - if you don't pay for a long time, your landlord will garnish some amount from the money you earn at work. But if you get enough cash, you can rent a luxury apartment and move out of the stinky hole inside which you've been spending your life earlier!* [82]* [49]* [83]* [33]*A slightly enhanced CD-ROM version of this game with additional animations and CD-quality music was released in 1992.* [63]* [52]* [37]		MS-DOS

Leisure Suit Larry 1: In the Land of the Lounge Lizards	Sierra On-Line	1991	LOOKING FOR A GOOD TIME? MEET LARRY. He's just turned 40 and he's still single. If you can get past the glow of his Grecian formula you can see his hairline beginning to make a hasty retreat from his forehead. Larry's leisure suit is of the highest quality (!00% man-made material, permanent press, too!). He wears at least 11 gold chains, and his freshly-capped teeth could blind you in a bright light. Down at the singles bar he tells the chicks, "sure I'm single...I got in a fight with my ol' lady and she threw me out." He doesn't tell them the 'ol' lady' was his mom, or that he was 38 at the time. YEAH, LARRY'S A JERK He's the ultimate blind date nightmare. The kind of guy you wouldn't want your daughter to meet, let alone date. But he's also become an unlikely cult-hero of the computer age. And he's the star of this new version of the 3-D Adventure Game classic. 3-D EQUALS DANCING, DRINKING, AND DAMES! Become the lovable nerd Larry for one fabulous night. You'll drink. You'll gamble. And, if you play your cards right, you might even meet the girl (or girls) of your dreams. Leisure Suit Larry is a humorous, harmless endeavor for adults. The object of the game is to help Larry over-come his jerkisms and lose his "you know what". It's a silly, risque romp through the singles' scene and a challenging adventure game that will test your street smarts and suave sophistication. So slip into your leisure suit and venture out into the land of the lounge lizards. We guarantee it will be a night you'll never forget. A New 3-D Animated Adventure Game featuring:* Hand-painted and digitized art in brilliant full color (including many of your favorite fleshtones). * An improved music card compatible stereo soundtrack that'll have you partying all night long. * More mouse-controlled "point-and-grope" commands give you quick, one-hand action scoring. * Incredible three-dimensional animation. Larry in front of speeding cabs, into hot tubs, across the disco dance floor. * Animated characters that come alive. They walk, they talk... they even ignore your best pick-up lines - just like in real life.* [22]* [52]	Al Lowe	MS-DOS
Leisure Suit Larry 2	Sierra On-Line	1988	Who is Leisure Suit Larry? If you look up the word "nerd" in the dictionary, you're liable to find Leisure Suit Larry's picture as a definition. Leisure Suit Larry is the kind of guy you see in just about every seedy singles bar. He wears a white leisure suit with the shirt open to the waist (lots of gold chains make up for the lack of a chest). If you can get past the glow of his Grecian formula, you can see that his hairline is making a hasty retreat from his forehead. Larry is the original blind date nightmare - the kind of guy you wouldn't want your daughter to date, let alone meet. He is such a loser that Cosmo Magazine recently voted him "most negligible bachelor of the year." A Time Magazine article on "The War Between the Sexes" carried his picture with the caption "an unarmed innocent bystander." Why is Larry suddenly so popular with the ladies? On cruise ships, in laid back Los Angeles, and in other exotic locations, Larry is suddenly attracting the attention of all kinds of nubile nymphettes. He's been propositioned by a bikini'd babe at the poop-deck pool, suffered the seductions of a sadomasochistic spinster, even played "hide the onklunk" with a sexy spanish senorita. Why is it that some of the loviest ladies in the western hemisphere are so hot to get their hands on Larry - and why is he resisting their advances? Why is it that Larry has suddenly started looking for Miss "Right" (as opposed to Miss "Right-Now") and will he find her? Find out why when you play...

What better reason to take off into the steamy jungle ruled by Amazon cannibal woman. As Patti... you'll follow Larry's trail deep into the overgrown jungle. Find your lover, and rescue him from a life of sex slavery at the hands of the man-eating cannibal Amazon women who have taken him prisoner.

In our first ever role-switching adventure, you'll experience a new dimension of computer adventure. Become Larry, trying to find himself in the jungles of Nontoonyt Island, and Passionate Patti, searching for the man of her dreams (who seems to have dropped off the face of the earth).		MS-DOS

Loom	Lucasfilm Games	1990	Long after the passing of the Second Shadow, when dragons ruled the twilight sky and the stars were bright and numerous, came the Age of the Great Guilds. Blacksmiths. Shepards. Clerics. Each dedicated to the absolute control of secret knowledge. Another such Guild was the Weavers. Over the centuries, their craft transcended the limits of physical cloth, until they wove the very fabric of reality itself. Now, a strange power has swept the Weavers into oblicion, leaving behind one Weaver boy to unravel the mystery. Help young Bobbin rescue his Guild... and you might save the universe from an unspeakable catastrophe.* [49]* [33]* [83]* [62]* [17]* [82]*CD-ROM version [22]* [22]* [1]CD-ROM version [37] [37]2009-07-08 on Steam, by LucasArts (lang: eng) - 256 color enhanced version (runs through some odd emulator that enforces 2xSAI or similar filter, too)**Fantasy adventure by LucasArts. This is one of their earlier adventure titles, and it's fairly short, but it's a fun story. You play Bobbin Threadbare, apprentice Weaver, a young man caught in the inevitable pull of destiny. The graphics use only 16-colors but are very well drawn (they're the kind that sold systems back then). The interface is simple, and the puzzles utilize the interesting concept of magic through a musical sequence. Certain actions cause magical notes to resonate through Bobbin's staff, and if he can memorize the sequence he can use it to invoke the action in another object. Some of the more ingenious puzzles also involve reversing a sequence to cause the opposite reaction. I think there should have been more throwaway animations for using the wrong sequence instead of just one generic 'wrong sequence' animation, but even without that the game is worthwhile, if short. The setting reminds me of Ursula K. LeGuin's Earthsea trilogy for some reason. Of special note is the fine musical score, adapted from Tschaikovsky's ballet 'Swan Lake.'
