Adventure Gamers - Forums

So, apparently there are “curators” on steam that you can follow and get game recommendations from.

Does anyone know if there are any good (or any at all) curators on steam that focus on point and click adventures? Or just games with strong narrative in general and not shooty-killy-bang-bang games?

Actually, I just found one “Adventures forever”.

Wow this curator thing is blossoming like crazy now. Following it explode this morning.

Have you tried using the keyword “adventure”?

You’d notice that AdventureGamers is in there…

actually lol no I didn’t. I used point and click though which came up with nothing. But that’s changing fast!

Thanks for the heads up on that one *DOH* I’ll blame it on morning stupidity.

Turns out the one I mentioned is actually curated by Jan Kavan, of J.U.L.I.A fame.

Edit: in my defense, the adventuregamers.com curator might not even have existed when I searched. All their games are added today. It’s all happening right now full speed on steam. Every site wants to be a curator now that the curator feature is suddenly in the spotlight on steam.

I’ve spent quite a lot of time today looking into the whole thing and I honestly believe this change is for the better, though I certainly think there are quite a lot of quirks in the system they need to work out. At the top of my page I get a bunch of horribly uninteresting things recommended to me, but now that I’ve added some curators that I follow, I found that the content already is becoming more relevant to my tastes. (unfortunately I have to scroll pretty far down to get to these more relevant things.)

Here are some adventure game curators I’m currently following, posted without comment:

Children of the Adventure Rennaisance
Owl cave (makers of richard and alice)
Quality Narrative
Awesome graphic adventures

Agreed, it’s still pretty broken. Fingers crossed they’ll sort it out soon!
