Name 3 ag’s with ... a ship in a bottle.

Jolly Rover
Igor: Objective Uikokahonia

and The Curse of MI

This has been covered lately is some other thread, but anyway - name 3 AGs with giant mushrooms!

Journey to the Center of the Earth

The Legend of Crystal Valley

Does the titular Mushroom of Phungoria from the Gilbert Goodmate game qualify as ‘giant’? It does for me.
If I’d eat that, I wouldn’t have mush room left for dessert…
Groan-inducing pun, I know. Sorry.

Or would you accept regular-size mushrooms but really tiny protagonists, like in this bit from Simon the Sorcerer?

Oh, hell, I’ll just pick the giant mushrooms from Uru - Ages Beyond Myst instead. Avoids all arguments…



Name 3 adventure games that feature live dinosaurs (so no skeletons).

Nice work, Tim, I didn’t know Simon the Sorcerer one (I had Ceville in mind)

Jurassic Park, Lost Eden and Flight of the Amazon Queen (Ok, ok, if you’re not taking FOTA then Journey to the Center of the Earth.)

Name 3 games in which you’re visiting the location as one character, and then THE SAME location as the other character.

Broken Sword 5 - library, fountain area, etc
Gabriel Knight 2 - backstage at the opera - small area and not very convincing I know
Resonance - many locations

Name 3 adventures where you can spy on people.

EDIT: I’ll add Edna and Harvey. (memories)

Jurassic Park, Lost Eden and Flight of the Amazon Queen (Ok, ok, if you’re not taking FOTA then Journey to the Center of the Earth.)

Those were the games I had in mind, and yes, I would have counted FotAQ.

The Curse of Monkey Island, (obviously) Voyeur 2 and And Then There Were None.

Name two 3rd-person games with the unnamed main protagonist

Return to Mysterious Island 2
Congo: Descent into Zinj
Broken Age

Name three adventure where the protagonist can see himself in a mirror.

Hmm… that’s a hard one!

Isabelle
Gabriel Knight 3
Ninety percent of all text adventures

I’d better wait for the green or red light before posting a new one.

The Experiment, of course!

The second-person view in Isabelle is optional. You can choose to play one of the two protagonists (the other one is 3rd-person only) either 1st-person or camera view from behind.

Name 3 adventures that break the fourth wall at some point.

About 2nd-person - GK3 of course! I completely forgot you can move the camera regardless of the main character’s movement. BTW, aren’t those games with the narrator *sort* of 2nd-person as well, because, for example, the narrator is talking about Larry like Larry is you, and not about Larry as he’s him, if you get my drift. And aren’t Samorost-like (not Machinarium) games also kind of 2nd-persons in that sense you’re sort of a “god” who interacts with the surroundings?

Name 3 adventures that break the fourth wall at some point.

Rincewind knocking on screen in Discworld 1, Monkey Island 2 (Chuckie turning to audience with an evil smile - can “breaking the fourth wall” be without the spoken word, just gestures?) and Simon the Sorcerer on quite a few occasions. (if you’re not taking MI2 then Simons the Sorcerer 2 )

Name 2 adventure games where you visit the zoo. (yeah, I’ve been to the zoo today!)
