Mystery Games

This week Anna is joined by guest host Sarah and they had a lot of fun talking about mysteries- with the real mystery being, what is a mystery game? What differentiates it from say, an Adventure game? Join us as we possibly find that out, talk about some of our favorite mystery games past and present and divulge the deets on Steam sales that may or may not be current, but are mystery games that are always worth picking up! We hope you enjoy listening! Paul will return next episode, probably! If not Sarah will be back! (also, Sarah, can you do next week if I can't? I already told them you could)   Facebook Page Facebook Group Twitter (Anna) - @CGGpodcast Twitter (Paul) - @PhantomFellows Twitch (Sarah) - sarahkel421 Instagram: @CGGpodcast E-mail:  mail@classicgamersguild.com Become a Patreon to support the show I guess! www.patreon.com/ClassicGamersGuild Wishlist our adventure game maybe!

Adventure Game Puzzles

This week Anna & Paul take a look at the many different types of puzzles in adventure games. From inventory based to branching dialogs and the many in between, they go over all of them and cite which are crowd favorites and why, based on what Paul generously calls “research”. It was a real good time, come hear what they had to say about your most and least favorite types of puzzle!

Back In... 1984-86 - The Years In Gaming

We are edging closer to the dawn of classic gaming! When faced with an ever-depleting list of games to cover and a fear of not having enough material for an entire episode, Anna & Paul decided to cover three years in-one, and that was more or less a mistake. However, they had fun digging through, discussing and compiling a little highlight reel of games from a depressing amount of years ago, for real don't do the math. But do enjoy listening!

Gabriel Knight - Sins of the Fathers

Episode 140: This week Anna & Paul discuss what may well be Sierra’s masterpiece, Gabriel Knight: Sins of the Fathers. They identify why not loving this game makes you wrong and how playing it if you haven’t, can make you a better person.  Also Paul’s cat gives actual birth live in the background for some reason. And if you listen closely later in the episode, you can once again hear proof that Paul does not know Star Wars.  We hope you enjoy & have a wonderful Christmas or regular Saturday ❤️ A&P Come join the discussion and the community!

What Have You Been Playing?

Episode 139: This week Anna and Paul have a casual convo about some of the games they've been playing. After talking about the game and giving some feedback on it, they relieve themselves of being on-topic, have another chat about different games and finally make their way back to subject. Several times. Look, they talk games and they laugh a lot so... hopefully you'll enjoy listening!

Back In... 1987 - The Year In Gaming

Episode 138: This week we really take our time with 1987. We light some candles, play it some jazz and slowly unwrap it. No but Anna and Paul do talk a lot this week because 1987 had some iconic titles. LucasFilm had just introduced to the world the point and click adventure game, Sierra had just introduced the world to Larry Laffer and Sonny Bonds while officially introducing Roger Wilco as well. Also, there were other games too. Even in like, different genres. And so that's why this is a long one, anyway, we had fun & we hope you enjoy listening! Come join the discussion and the community!

Sanitarium - Psychological Point-and-Click Horror

This week we sit down to talk about Sanitarium because it's October and everything is spooky we all decided. This psychological thriller is a favorite to those who have played and worth playing to those who haven't. Or least worth being told about it, by us, for maybe a little too much time. Anyway we hope you enjoy listening!   Also, apologies for some unpolished sound quality, we had a bit of trouble with our hosting provider that night.   Come join the discussion and the community!
