Adventure Game Interfaces

Author: Anna & Paul December 19, 2023 Duration: 1:31:47
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.

Anna and Paul invite you to join their table for The Classic Gamers Guild Podcast, a conversation born from a shared love of adventure games. This isn't a formal review show or a strategy guide, but more like overhearing two friends deep in discussion after a gaming session. Each episode delves into the worlds of point-and-click classics, graphic adventures, and modern titles that carry the spirit of the genre. You'll hear them unpack puzzles, celebrate clever writing, critique frustrating mechanics, and reminisce about the characters and stories that left a mark. The charm of this podcast lies in the hosts' genuine enthusiasm and their personal connection to these games, offering both nostalgic trips for longtime fans and accessible entry points for newcomers curious about these narrative-rich experiences. Tune in for thoughtful, meandering, and often humorous explorations of what makes adventure games uniquely compelling.
