Snugglecakes Posted May 28, 2010 Share Posted May 28, 2010 Mine's Woodtick, by a big margin! In fact... Woodtick makes me wish I was born 400 years ago. This is probably why I've been so critical of the special editions, I'm terrified of what they might do to Woodtick. So far so good though. Also have a soft spot for Rubacava, but never go there anymore because I'd have to do an awful lot of keyboard-controlled bumping-into-everything-and-pulling-my-hair-out (others call it walking around) to get there. Which just isn't going to happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Threepwood4life Posted May 28, 2010 Share Posted May 28, 2010 Its a tie between Woodtick and Blood Island for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snugglecakes Posted May 28, 2010 Author Share Posted May 28, 2010 Ok I must say Blood Island is awesome. Woodtick takes first place in the MI world though. I'm sure that one day I'll be on the couch and have to admit that sometimes I just go there to walk around and look and listen. Am I mad? In all probability... yes.

Rosefull Posted May 28, 2010 Share Posted May 28, 2010 I'd like to live on Plunder Island. That place just seems perfect for me. I love fried chicken, there's a nice classy beach club, Haggis looks like the kind of guy who could tame my unruly hair, and to top it all off, there's a theater! (even if it's a lousy one) I'm kind of a die-hard actor and Shakespere fanatic. And I even love snakes. The reason I chose a Monkey Island location is because of my long-standing belief that I was meant to be born a 17th-century pirate. I love everything about pirates. The outfits, he sea, the treasure, the adventure, the swordfighting, the grog, etc., etc. And a 17th-Century pirate complete with pop-culture referances? How perfect is that. Wow, I put a lot of thought into this. 0_o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snugglecakes Posted May 29, 2010 Author Share Posted May 29, 2010 Hehe! Yeah I agree, I'd love to be walking around in the Monkey Island universe. Even if these paths all look the same... Of course we'll just gloss over the hardship, violence, disease etc from the period! And no internet. But at least there's grog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
urluckyday Posted May 29, 2010 Share Posted May 29, 2010 Land of the Dead...even though that place was a virtual limbo...it was still pretty cool! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thrik Posted May 29, 2010 Share Posted May 29, 2010 Rubacava wins by far for me. That place drips with so much atmosphere and it's full of great characters too. God damn. 10 seconds of and I'm in the mood for digging GF out for a play now. :~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

N3mo Posted May 30, 2010 Share Posted May 30, 2010 The entire Rubacava set makes me want to stop the adventure and stay there. And Blood Island too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KestrelPi Posted May 30, 2010 Share Posted May 30, 2010 I can't disagree with any of the choices already made. I'd also like to put in a word for the swamp/voodoo hut in MI2, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jenni Posted May 30, 2010 Share Posted May 30, 2010 My favorite adventure game location is the Edison mansion. I'd love to be able to explore more of it. I bet there's even more hidden rooms than we've been shown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sven_Q45 Posted May 30, 2010 Share Posted May 30, 2010 I think the Edison mansion, too, cause Dott is my favorite adventuregame. But don´t detect me on it! @Thrik Yes the atmosphere is very cool! @N3mo It don´t want to stop the game on it. I do it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aububuh Posted May 31, 2010 Share Posted May 31, 2010 I think that Atlantis from Fate of Atlantis is my favorite, mostly because of the incredible atmosphere. You really feel like you're in an abandoned city that nobody has touched for centuries, and it really builds up the suspense for the climax, and then all that stuff happens that I won't spoil for anyone who's never played it. As for someplace I'd want to live, I would have to go for Rubacava. I know it's been said before, I just think it would be a really cool place to be.

Kroms Posted May 31, 2010 Share Posted May 31, 2010 Live? Puerto Pollo. That I admire? Almost all choices made in this thread (aka all the choices from the games I've played). I also think both Bladehenge and Deathspank's world (it seems pleasant!) are cool, though they're not adventure games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JezzaTheLagomorph Posted May 31, 2010 Share Posted May 31, 2010 I love New York City in Sam & Max: The Penal Zone, because it feels so much like a city and it's so much like how I imagine New York to be (I've never actually been there). It's so grimy and dirty, there's always things going on in the background (mostly rats). I know it's not a classic (yet) but there's something about Sam & Max's New York.

don_quixote Posted June 2, 2010 Share Posted June 2, 2010 No votes for Melee Town? Tsk tsk... I think that was the first time I 'got' how important atmosphere was to a game. Although the whole of Melee Island was just wonderful. I love Puerto Pollo as well, and just the general 'feel' of Blood Island. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N3mo Posted June 3, 2010 Share Posted June 3, 2010 Speaking of nice locations, one year ago I was trying to make an April Fool (Monkey3 Special Edition, yeeeeah!!) transforming the Goodsoup Hotel in some kind of Tiller's 2.5D and repainting the screen. I gave up cause I'm not so good in lights dynamics and 3D and stuff. Mission failed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
