What game got you into adventure games?
Here, I'll start. When I was 8 years old, my parents went to a dinner party and plonked me down in front of the host's computer so I'd stay out of their way. The game they booted up to keep me occupied was Space Quest II. Little did they know what impact that would have on me...

Good day, Troels. My first PC game ever was King's Quest III, on the IBM PC. That started my love for PC gaming and adventure games in particular.
Haha! We were just talking in the other reply thread about how if KQ3 had been our first adventure game, we'd probably never have gotten into adventure games in the first place. 😂 Seriously, that game was (and still is) brutal! How did you cope with that?
Lol, KQ3 was my cherry popping first time playing an AG too.. And i didn't cope with the parser coming from console (NES) and having limited english skills at the time (and lack of concentration due to ADHD probably didnt help either),😂 but the NES got shadowgate and deja vu, so those are the ones that finally got me into adventure games
Hint books. Those wonderful, overpriced little books that required you used a special yellow highlighter to reveal the answers. And the Sierra hint line, if it existed at that time.
Honestly, I was just so blown away by the "3D graphics" that I didn't mind its brutality. For me, that was just part of the game. Maybe these games are what helped me to learn patience and diligence.
