As i've seen some "best this best that" thread wich i find repeatitive or absurd (but it's just me, i mean no problem. also for a bit it's also me that make them repeatitive by vote the same stuff over and over),
here's a pool that can do me some good:
wich text+graphic game should i play tonite? please, in the comments that you are due to add, tell me also wich ones i should forget. or add as well some good stuff and send me maybe some statesave to skip the boring parts or maybe a avi file of the whole game (without lags, please)
thanks in advance

Forget about Shadowgate. Pure frustration, no fun.

There are some errors in your list. All ICOM adventures you have listed (Deja Vu 1&2, Shadowgate, Uninvited) plus Plan 9 from Outer Space are not text & graphics; they're pure point & clicks, no text. Uninvited is my favorite of the list, but if you're really after a good & challenging graphics & text adventure, go for Wonderland.

Tut tut tut. So this is why the voting numbers have dropped off

Why not use my Polls as a guide to the best amiga games, there must be something on the lists that you'd like to play. Or you could just read a book.

thanks for the suggestion mate;
i knew about the errors when i compiled the list (most of them) but simply i found not much important to be precise; moreover some of them, like Deja Vu do appears as text+graphic in HOL; what i did wrong instead it is to divide games that were in the same story line and released as compilation, as Silicon Dreams. The one you are pergectly right is Plan 9, wich i added as wrong and voted so to have the results of my poll displayed when i open the thread
and it is also the game that i've started to play while waiting for your suggestions and votes.


Freakywackybug: Ah! to feel the arrows' theeth of a so much adverse intention! me! that i was so incline to apply my study and my support to your phantasy effortless quest for the yearlings! oh woe, woe! woe to me...
You see my poll is just plainly more interestin of yours! it is just so much debatable and uhm, i mean textual... moreover i'm more handsome than you so just kowtow to me and maybe next time on IRC i'll show you some regard


edit: i can't even start to amend the english mess of the above lines, i'm kidding at FWW, wich great and interesting collection of yearling games you can findin this same section of the board

time to give it a second try.
i've played some of them since i put up the poll, but, partly because my english goes only so far, i could not advance much in them without solutions
so, could you point me out some adventures to your experience not too hard?

A vote for the Pawn here, probably because it was my first Amiga game I'll always cherrish it fondly, but it was good too!

Of your list that I've played I liked Mindfighter too, but it's vocabulary was a lot more limiting and I never managed to finish it.
