New to adventure games... what should I start with?

Which app store do you use? The price on the first game hasn't dropped on the U.S. store.

 

I remember that and I'm still kicking myself in the pants for not getting it, but Mondae said that it's $5 right now.

 

Thanks, that link works on the PC. On my iPad, no matter how I search for it, I just get "Your search had no results."

 

Myst

 

Simon the Sorcerer 1 and 2 are also classics

 

Fixed.

 

Found something cool for you guys to have a look at.

Phoenix Wright.

 

I just finished Hector.. and I can't say I recommend it.
The writing and voice acting were excellent, and the puzzles were fun, but right when you start getting into things, rhe game ends.
A $4 game is hard to recommend at this length, especially when Phoenix Wright is $1 and provides infinitely more gameplay.

 

What. PW ONE DOLLAR?!

 

Phoenix Wright is $4.99 as far as I can tell...

 

Crucial typo.
$1 MORE.
My apologies.

 

I think you may have excited a few people there!

 

Scared me actually, xD

 

Broken Sword has a nice balance in it's gameplay, the story and the characters provide variety and an engaging Knights Templar-based atmosphere, and importantly, the running time is very good. BAFTA nominee to boot.

Personally, I preferred Broken Sword to MI, but they both give good value. Agree with above poster...MI may go on sale, as they just released Part 2 in the series (this one w/ an iPad counterpart!)

 

BS feels better and more polished than the MI special editions but all are still good.

 

Hahaha! Doesn't take much to scare you mate! ;D
