The Classic Gamers Guild Podcast

This Week Anna & Paul played Quest For Glory! And honestly, I can't focus on writing this because I've got that song in my head that's all

This Week Anna & Paul are combing through the Yearbook from Point 'n Click High, and deciding things like: Who had the best hair? Who's the class clown? Who has the most punchable face? Who had the best death animation?  It kinda starts as more Yearbook trope kinda questions and then transforms into general award-show style questions but it's a good time, you'll see, you'll all see.

This Week Anna & Paul are like, here lemme just give you an example, this is the episode: Larry Laffer vs Roger Wilco - Who are you choosing to babysit your kid? Gabriel Knight vs. Indiana Jones - Who's the best smooth talker? Laura Bow vs Grace Nakamura - Who figures out a supernatural mystery faster?   It's a lotta that.

This week Anna & Paul are talking—wait, is that a good name for the episode? I was kinda thinking "Pixels and Personas" but that sounded kinda vague, but maybe it's more mysterious which I think you want for catchy episode titles. Whatever. This week they're talking about Archetypes—first they lay out the different archetypes using pop-culture and words, then they assign the most iconic adventure game characters atheir fitting archetype. It's a little different but a lotta fun, mangia!   Play our adventure game! The Phantom Fellows is out now!

This week Anna & Paul are talking about the most adventurous adventure games! The ones that aren't just an adventure by genre but that make you feel like you're on a grand adventure! They've broken it down into categories such as globe trotting/grab your passport adventures, adventures that take place over one crazy day, and more!

This week Anna & Paul are talking about non-adventure games, for some reason. Oh, Paul was supposed to say, for his first pick, "Astro Chicken" and he formally regrets forgetting this very so-so joke. See cos, that's in an adventure game and so it represents his hesitation to embrace anything outside of the adventure genre.  I'm glad I explained it, it's for sure funnier now. Mangia!   The Phantom Fellows Pin/Magnet by CanvasQuest!   Mac OS9 Emulator (Mac) Mac OS9 Emulator (PC)  Mac System Seven Emulator (Mac) Mac System Seven Emulator (PC)   Play our adventure game!

This week Anna and Paul are ranking some adventure games that weren't made by Sierra or LucasArts.

This week Anna & Paul are talking about what it means to be human and to have played Blade Runner, the 1997 Adventure Game. This was a fun conversation that ranges from what a voxel actual is to the philosophical implications behind the questions that Blade Runner asks. And all from the differing perspectives of Anna, who is a newcomer to the IP and from Paul, who is a lifetime fan and Phillip K Dick about it. Mangia!   Wishlist our adventure game!

This week Anna & Paul are comparing the original* AGI King's Quest with the SCI remake. It's part of our EGA vs VGA Sierra Comparison series except the King's Quest remake is still in EGA so technically it's- look it's all very nerdy and pedantic. Point is, a game was made, then it was remade and we're going to be the vessel in which you vicariously experience playing both through. Mangia!     Wishlist our adventure game!

This week Anna & Paul are joined by Tom Hardwidge of Tall Story Games to talk about pixel art in adventure games! They discuss how pixel art began as result of a technical limitation and went on to become a stylistic choice that people still can't get enough of. They also discuss its role in adventure games, purist vs modernized pixel art, how they make pixel art and a whole bunch more!

This week Anna & Paul are joined by Ryan Slattery of Slatt Studio to discuss the pros and cons of text parser and the pros and cons of point and click, but like, comparatively. I guess it's parser vs point and click but idk, the "vs" gives it like a grudge match kinda vibe and we didn't really frame it like one of them has to win and the other lose. Here, let's start over with an overtly intellectual vibe:    This week your hosts are joined by one R. J.

This week Anna & Paul reimagine some classic adventures as period correct TV sitcoms. Imagine Laura Bow having her own weekly whodunit series, Gabriel Knight starring in his own X-Files or shek this out, how about Leisure Suit Larry has a show right, and he lives with his mom who's like the Muppet Babies mom or wait no, she's like Howard Wolfowitz's mom, and anyway Larry keeps trying to get how would you say... his loins tended to, and it never works out kinda like how it nothing ever worked out for Al Bundy and so in the end he's always just back home with his mom. This episode, is that but like, more better. It's actually pretty listenable, you'll see, you'll all see. Mangia!   Vote for The Phantom Fellows to be released on GOG! Wishlist our adventure game!

Okay, so we've established that policing or otherwise work regarding crime solving will not be involved in the episode, what else? Oh so, we basically go through the games that had planned sequels and briefly discuss what they could have looked like but mostly, we mostly pitch each other sequels we want and what they might have been about. Or bean about if you're Anna. And you might be! She actually, she reads these for some reason.

This week Anna & Paul bring you the Sierra Remake Comparison IV: This One Isn't Even Sierra. Look, you all asked us about Loom and we finally answered. We also made sense of what exactly was being weaved, all while comparing the original EGA version to the VGA and FM Towns remake. Join us as we present to you our flimsy arguments as to which is the best while Paul upsets the LucasArts fans by constantly referring to the protagonist as Bobbin Threepbare and Bobbin Threadwood, possibly by accident, frankly I'm not so sure.

This week Anna & Paul discuss things, using words. Mangia! Okay fine. They talk about interfaces, gooey's and unique game mechanics! What do I mean? Unclear! Okay okay, for starters, gooey is neat for GUI's which is less nerdy for Graphical User Interfaces. And by interfaces I mean Text Parser, 9 Verb, 2-Click, Sierra Point and Click, Verb Coin and maybe more. And by unique mechanics, well they look at innovative gameplay mechanics used in adventures games such as Resonance, Whispers of a Machine and others- look at some point you're just gonna have to listen to it, this is as far as I can take you.

This week Anna & Paul are looking at all the Police Quest 1's. Both Police Quest 1's. The, the two different 1's. See cos there's Police Quest: In Pursuit of the Death Angel and then there's Police Quest: In Pursuit of the Death Angel, again, for the first time. See, they're both actually quite different and it's not even- it's not subtle. Oh yeah, did I mention this is the first in a lil mini series of comparing Sierra SCI/VGA remakes to their original counterpart? Cos it is. We're eventually gonna cover the other 4 remakes- you'll see, YOU'LL ALL SEE! Ok, go, enjoy the episode, Mangia! Wishlist our adventure game!

This week Anna & Paul are doing words at you while under the direction of "talk about plots" and "make them good words". They are looking at adventure games with complex plots and adventure games with thin, straightforward plots and examining when one is better than the other and asking the question: how much does the plot of the story even matter, in adventure games? After all, it is rarely the main topic of conversation surrounding an adventure game, so why is that? Also, this episode is available in a video version, on YouTube! So have a look or a listen and maybe even enjoy it. Mangia! Video Version of this podcast! Wishlist our adventure game!

This week Paul is joined by special guest Adventure Game Geek and they are going through their favorite scary, spooky and suspenseful adventure games! Sure it kind of devolved into ranking games from 0 to "has a pumpkin in it" and sure, what was supposed to be a list of scary games turned into more "well, at some point it's dark and raining, so that counts" but it's a fun time regardless.

This week Anna & Paul are taking you through a point and click adventure game that is often referred to as "surprisingly really good". What game is that? The one that's the title of the episode omg it's so long, don't make me type it out again. FINE, Beavis and Butthead in Virtual Stupidity. Okay I actually copied and pasted it, that wasn't so bad/sorry for yelling. Basically they attempt to give you a solid second hand experience with the game, essentially playing it for you. I mean they didn't really hit that mark but that, that's what was attempted. But they did have fun and laugh a lot so maybe you will too, who knows. Mangia! Wishlist our adventure game!

This week Anna & Paul are talking about great adventures that don't always get the attention they deserve. Kinda like you, maybe. Anyway without spoiling the games mentioned, because I mean ca'mon, half the fun is finding out if they said the thing you wanted them to say, but the games mentioned span from 1984 to 2020 and for the first time, Paul mentions a non-adventure game!

This week Anna & Paul embark on a journey of self growth, where you might say they learn a few things a long the way. Or maybe along the way. That's, spelling that word is one of the things they learned. If you're a fan of adventure games, laughter or Nietzsche, you're going to want to listen to this one, it's even got some accidental profundity at the end. Wanna know what's actually talked about in the episode? Fair enough. Defining adventure comedy, fourth wall breaking, red herrings, narration, in-jokes, visual gags, funny deaths, parody, straight-man characters and more! Actually and no more.
