[PC] Rex Nebular and the Cosmic Gender Bender (1992)

How:
Got on GOG on a Black Friday sale.
Pros:
- Nice sci-fi setting
- Nice minimalistic background music
- Nice graphics and animations
Cons:
- Slow movement, not possible to skip
- Basic inventory-oriented puzzles
- Fonts are large and hard to read

Taking a leak - first time ever in a game?

Cosmic innuendos.

I thought the scribblings would be password or coordinates, but apparently they appear in other Microprose adventures (e.g. Dragonsphere). 

[PC] Call of Cthulhu: Shadow of the Comet (1993)

How:
Read about it on Hardcoregaming101, bought it on GOG during a winter sale.
Pros: 
- Cool creepy atmosphere and story
- Some nice puzzles
- Very nice graphics
Cons
- Spooky but very repetitive music
- Unintuitive interface, sometimes you must Use items, sometimes you just need to have them in your hands in the right place at the right time
- Easy to lose bearings in town, and understand which locations are accessible
- Slow dialogues
- Possible dead-ends
- Too much trial-and-error towards the end

The game comes with a separate mini-game called "Lovecraft Museum".

[PC] The Whispered World (Special Edition) (2010)

How:
Read about it on Adventuregamers.com, got during a Daedalic sale at GOG.com.
Pros:
- Awesome background drawings and in-game animations
- Puzzles are quite clever in general
- Very nice music, although a bit monotonous
- Nice, relaxing mood for the most part
- Quite lengthy and adventurous
- Nice unconvential puzzles to be solved using Spot's transformed versions
Cons:
- No wide screen, a real pity
- Stuttering animations, usually at the beginning of each scene or location
- Glitchy sound in the dialogues
- A couple of annoying puzzles (e.g. move around rooms in the Asgil's city)
- The main character is unlikable, unhearable, and depressing for the most part of the game
- Some puzzles can be solved by accident, destroying continuity
- The clock puzzle in the oracle's hut was automatically solved for me without me asking for it
- Lots of pixel hunting
- Some game-breaking bugs (e.g. character stuck in the background, door does not open, etc.)
- The cinematic parts among chapters do not live up to the rest of the game

[Android] The Lost City (2012)

How:
Read some review on Adventuregamers after explicitly looking for more Android games to play.
Pros:
- Beautiful graphics and very fitting animations
- Nice, well-balanced puzzles
- Fitting music
- Immersive atmosphere
- Nice game for some relaxed, light-hearted adventuring
Cons:
- Music is a bit repetitive, could be much better with a different theme per season
- Underwhelming, almost non-existing finale
- The overlaid text is too much in the way
- Essentially a back-tracking game, can get tedious
- Some mechanical puzzles can be solved before the PC has a way to find the solution, but the game does not accept the solution even if correct (e.g. combinatorial puzzles)

[PC] Flight of the Amazon Queen (1995)

How:
Didn't know the game before it was given for free on Ubuntu together with Beneath a Steel Sky. Finally played it after getting it (for free) on Gog.com.
Pros:
- Very nice animations and graphics
- Nice overworld map idea (Joe looks at the jungle from a pinnacle, with a nice parallax effect)
- Very good voice overs
- Several cutscenes
- Some amusing sections (e.g. dialogue with Death before taking the boat)
Cons:
- Cannot skip dialogues
- Mostly inventory oriented puzzles, with tons of inventory items
- Graphics, music and overall tone are too much reminiscent of Monkey Island and Indiana Jones
- Uninspired, sometimes annoying music
- Some bad jokes
- Must mouse over items twice to get a description

[PC] King's Quest VI: Heir Today, Gone Tomorrow (1992)

How:
Often heard of it as one of the best adventure games ever, got on Gog.com with the King's Quest 4+5+6 pack.
Points:
I managed to finish the game with 228/231 points without using a walkthrough (I actually needed a walkthrough just to open the ink bottle...). The only puzzle I missed was feigning death in front of the black cloaked man, since I got the correct lamp by trial & error. Still got the best ending possible.
Pros:
- Some memorable and diversified music
- Generally good voiceovers
- You get to ride a black winged horse to the realm of the dead!
- Direct references to previous episodes of the series
- Rather lengthy, with a great amount of optional content
- The second half of the game is amazing (realm of the dead + castle)
- Very nice and logical puzzles
- Great graphics and cool cutscenes
- The possibility to die or get dead ends makes gameplay more exciting
Cons:
- Some super-fast animation glitches
- Some audio glitches (sometimes the music volume covers the narrator's voice)
- Using an item or using an item on the main character give different results only with some items (e.g. the ink bottle must be used directly on Alexander to open it)
- The Isle of Wonder seems more like the deus-ex-machina of missing inventory items
- Once again a final love ballad
- Some tedious backtracking required
- Trial & error required to solve certain puzzles
- Dead ends (usually quite clear though)

[DS] Another Code: Two Memories (2005)

How:
Saw (didn't read) a positive review on Adventuregamers.com during a DS adventures lookout. Convinced by the fact it is developed by Cing, the same guys behind Hotel Dusk.
Pros:
- Gameplay is light and fun
- Very good presentation overall
- The game just feels good to play and always keeps you interested
Cons:
- Puzzles are too easy
- The plot can be confusing if enough attention is not paid
- Ending is quite anti-climatic and cliche somehow

[PC] Monkey Island 2: Special Edition (2010)

Pros:
- Beautiful graphics and music
- Can play both versions at any time with a cool transient effect
- Much more fluent and swift than the original
Cons:
- Can't skip dialogue
- Music is not given proper weight, buggy transitions
- Guybrush seems floating when walking towards the screen
- New graphics and voiceovers kill much of the creepiness and goofiness of the original game
- The last part needs a very quick hand

[PC] Sinking Island (2007)

How:
Enjoyed Syberia and Syberia 2 by B.Sokal, heard in many places about this and actually only heard negative things. Eventually a friend bought it and I borrowed it.

Pros:
- Great graphics for the most part
- Nice (even though not superb) music
- Pleasant PDA mechanics
- Good plot
Cons:
- Difficulty relies on pixel hunting and speaking everytime with everyone about everything
- Frequent graphic glitches
- Awful dubbing (played the Italian version)
- Unskippable dialogues and random events (eating, phone calls) are a pain in the ass
- Few, uninspired puzzles
- Gameplay is a matter of running around the tower searching for clues and characters
- Ugly animations
- Found it very difficult to relate with the main character

[PC] Tales of Monkey Island - Episodes 1-5 (2009)

Pros:
- Very funny and likable
- Excellent dubbing
- Adventurous, intriguing story
- Excellent animations, facial expressions do their damn work
- Beautifully described characters
- Excellent music (as always)
- Excellent graphics and landscapes (as always)
- A plot full of twists, always keeps you wanting for more
Cons:
- Puzzles are very simple, although not trivial nor silly
- The movement system is incredibly unpractical and frustrating
- Some glitches, requires a good amount of computational resources to run fluently
- Too many recipe-like and map-like puzzles, too much arcade in the final segment

[PC] The Curse of Monkey Island (1997)

Pro:
- Divertente, rilassante e molto longevo
- Enigmi molto belli e ben congegnati
- Musiche stupende
- Dialoghi divertenti come sempre
- Doppiaggio ottimo
- Cut-scene ottimamente realizzate, così anche le animazioni e le ambientazioni
Contro:
- C'è di nuovo una prova di spada e di cannoni, che può annoiare (anche se si può scegliere di saltarla)
- La grafica molto cartoonesca rovina un pò il mood originale (LeChuck è addirittura simpatico)

[Amiga][PC] Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's Revenge (1992)

Pro:
- Storia bellissima, dialoghi, musica e grafica altrettanto
- Si incontrano i personaggi del primo gioco
- Ottimi enigmi
- Divertente e spiritoso più del primo
- Si può giocare a due livelli di difficoltà
- Ottima longevità
Contro:
- La parte finale dell'inseguimento può diventare frustrante
- Un paio di enigmi hanno poco senso (uno è basato su un gioco di parole inglese che in italiano non funziona)

[Amiga][PC (VGA,EGA)] The Secret of Monkey Island (1991)

How:
My father got the game for my Amiga in my last year of primary school.
