Welcome to the largest gaming community on Lemmy! Discussion for all kinds of games. Video games, tabletop games, card games etc.

Rules

1. Submissions have to be related to games

Video games, tabletop, or otherwise. Posts not related to games will be deleted.

This community is focused on games, of all kinds. Any news item or discussion should be related to gaming in some way.

2. No bigotry or harassment, be civil

No bigotry, hardline stance. Try not to get too heated when entering into a discussion or debate.

We are here to talk and discuss about one of our passions, not fight or be exposed to hate. Posts or responses that are hateful will be deleted to keep the atmosphere good. If repeatedly violated, not only will the comment be deleted but a ban will be handed out as well. We judge each case individually.

3. No excessive self-promotion

Try to keep it to 10% self-promotion / 90% other stuff in your post history.

This is to prevent people from posting for the sole purpose of promoting their own website or social media account.

4. Stay on-topic; no memes, funny videos, giveaways, reposts, or low-effort posts

This community is mostly for discussion and news. Remember to search for the thing you're submitting before posting to see if it's already been posted.

We want to keep the quality of posts high. Therefore, memes, funny videos, low-effort posts and reposts are not allowed. We prohibit giveaways because we cannot be sure that the person holding the giveaway will actually do what they promise.

5. Mark Spoilers and NSFW

Make sure to mark your stuff or it may be removed.

No one wants to be spoiled. Therefore, always mark spoilers. Similarly mark NSFW, in case anyone is browsing in a public space or at work.

6. No linking to piracy

Don't share it here, there are other places to find it. Discussion of piracy is fine.

We don't want us moderators or the admins of lemmy.world to get in trouble for linking to piracy. Therefore, any link to piracy will be removed. Discussion of it is of course allowed.

I mean all joking aside, it really is a great classic Lucas arts adventure game. And it's part of GoG's game preservation effort.

Only India Jones game I want to play is Desktop Adventures.

Daaang, blast of the past, totally forgot about this one!

Fate of Atlantis? Kid me loved that one, but it's been ages since I played it.

[–] bjoern_tantau@swg-empire.de 13 points 6 months ago

Replayed it the other day. It's great. One of my favourite adventures.

I only got to play at my friend's house, and I think I got stuck on Minos (or whatever the Greek island was) and couldn't get past it before they bought a new computer

[–] naticus@lemmy.world 1 points 6 months ago

Still love this one. Have watched a couple LPs of it in the past couple years too just to relive that first experience again.

"That's a sandwich worthy of Dagwood Bumstead!"

[–] happysplinter@lemmy.world 3 points 6 months ago

I guess it's mayonnaise, but it looks like used motor oil.

[–] kaugman@lemmy.today 2 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Is this scene close to end? I don't remember seeing it and I never continued after submarine event.

[–] ProdigalFrog@slrpnk.net 2 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago) (1 children)

There's multiple paths in the game that open up slightly different content. There's a critical point when you can choose to take Sophia with you, or to go it alone with either thinking (harder puzzles) or fighting.

The balloon is shortly before the submarine on that path (I believe it's the sophia path)

Cool. I did't know. Thanks!
