Point and Click game advice needed
Jackdaw
see a good FREE game of similar style ( simple would be an extra bonus )
that can be downloaded free of charge, perhaps something from the archives.
Any recommendations.
Thanks

ahem, poor. But it's got great voice acting and dialogue and it works
just like a classic graphic adventure is supposed to. Don't remember
the site.

I would suggest checking out one of the big forums for graphical adventures
to get tips from - justadventure.com and adventuregamers.com being the names
that spring to mind, and then there's wherever the AGS people hang out with
all their freeware...

I went to see the sites and looked at the game at the graphics. Nearly
cried. They are awesome!! Wonderful, and ... and... very good.....

Adventure Gamers have a decent freeware coverage, and Adventure
Developers http://www.adventuredevelopers.com is specialised on
independent adventure game making.
Here's a few specific game recommendations (for links, see the
previously mentioned sites) for games that I like.
Out Of Order
Cubert Badbone
The Game That Takes Place on a Cruise Ship
Apprentice I and II (probably III too, when it's released)
Spooks
(And my own game, of course: Frasse and the Peas of Kejick)
Rikard
Giles
do a search on
point'n'click
(the lack of spaces and two apostrophes are important, I think - at
work so I can't check currently)
They have links to games of myriad genres and a comments section for
each game you can turn to for help and occasionally walkthroughs. It's
quite the little community.

"Beneath a Steel Sky" and "Flight of the Amazon Queen" can be
downloaded from the ScummVM Web page, http://www.scummvm.org/
They used to be commercial games, and while they're still copyrighted
(of course), the copyright holders have granted permission to
distribute them. In the case of Beneath a Steel Sky, you can even
download the original source code for it from
http://www.classicdosgames.com/source.html but I'm told it makes for
pretty scary reading.
Revolution Software has also made Lure of the Temptress available for
download from http://www.revolution.co.uk/_display.php?id=10 but I
haven't played that one beyond the first few rooms.
