Can anybody tell me a story-heavy adventure game Cognition, The Cat Lady or Blackwell?

you may wanna try and also read those titles reviews:
Gemini_Rue
Dark Eye Chains of Satinav
Yesterday

Thanks, I played Yesterday, and i finished Gemini Rue 5 minutes ago, and I will wait a few days till I get a laptop to play Dark Eye (my computer is so bad that I am afraid it will be to much for it), so does anybody else know some mature story adventure games?

I could probably recommend Overclocked and Culpa Innata as mature games with intriguing stories - aside from the classics. You should check the Top 100. Most of those games should have a good story. Just clicking through the site review summaries should give you a rather good idea if the game has a good story.

I’d like to know about good scifi or mystery titles, or both. I’ve already played my Gemini Rue and Perry Rhodan, and of course Gabriel Knights. I could specify a bit too, games that remind you/me of Lost, Fringe or Star Trek (the obvious license games exluded please Wink.)

Maybe Doctor Who: The Adventure Games, or Resonance.

Let’s dig this one, shall we?

So, what would be the first game to mention if asked: “similar to Alice in Wonderland” (but not Alice in Wonderland games)?

I haven’t played it, so I could be off, but Night of the Rabbit gave me a bit of an Alice in Wonderland feel…
Probably to do with the rabbit and the main character wearing a (mad) top hat. Tongue


Any adventure games out there that feature mundane tasks (feeding, changing, etc.) with newborn babies? Tongue

Beyond Good and Evil

Any adventures where you play multiple characters?

     

An adventure game is nothing more than a good story set with engaging puzzles that fit seamlessly in with the story and the characters, and looks and sounds beautiful.
