Me too - spooky places and the creepier the better!

I picked train- boats--- cause I loved Siberia-- I like to travel to different places-- get a variety - like in Broken Sword games--I like variety. I also really liked Sanitarium,-- I like all kinds.

I like walking around the streets of Ancient Egypt and chatting with the locals, or listening to temple bells in a Shangri-La that never was, or watching the waves from the decks of the Titanic before it sinks.

I'm a big horror fan!! Spooky, of course. :D Stuff like Inherent Evil, Delaware St. John, Nancy Drew, Ghosts...those are all great.

I'm not all for fantasy environments though. They can get a bit weird...like Aura or Voyage.

I posted "woods" because of Zanzarah. It was so pretty I could stay there even when there was nothing to do.

Hmmm....I need to get to work on my yard!

I voted for Castle.

But I like spooky houses. So, actually what I prefer is Spooky Castles!

All of them are fun. I really enjoy games that take me to real locales.

I like variety and being taken away from the norm, so I chose Myst-like games. However, there's not one location in the list that I haven't enjoyed. (I do have to ration the scary ones for my own peace of mind.)

I like all the choices too. Not crazy about cartoony games..Stupid Invaders would be the exception. I love the Aura type scenery. I find the non animated, real people and places games like A Quiet Weekend in Capri or the Carol Reed Mysteries fascinating. Love them!

Having been to Egypt several times - I have to say that anything with an Egyptian theme is great for me - and I am also fascinated by the Aztecs also. I like to travel to many different locations in one game - Also , I like to meet people and be able to interact with them.

Not sure if my chosen category is the right one for the games I love, but I chose Cartoon/Fantasy as I was crazy about Monkey Island series, Broken Sword 1 & 2, Touche, Stupid Invaders, Discworld series and Feeble Files - many more! I'd include TLJ in fantasy though. Anyway ...... that's the way I was thinking when I voted. :roll:

I think Runaway is next on my list to play.

Playing Ankh right now, but getting a little frustrated. Must be the mood I am in, cos everyone else raved over this game.
