After spending more than 12 months rediscovering classic adventure games of yesteryear, I wanted to hear more from the people who helped shape this most noble of genres, and what better way than with our very own virtual Round Table - a roundtable, if you will, one where various adventure game developers knights could come and talk about their adventure gaming memories and the genre’s past, present, and future.
This may be the reason the adventure genre is such a malleable one, and that even though it’s been around for decades – and has seen a huge amount of change – still has seemingly limitless potential. And throughout it all, a focus on narrative would be central. Starting with simple pieces of text on a screen and a flashing prompt waiting for input, over the years and decades this would evolve, incorporating graphics, animation, sound, music, and live action video. In computer gaming legend the adventure genre is one that began when computers were first made available for recreational use. Except for Merlin, who by this point had heard the Sword in the Stone story a few too many times and took to protest by staying in his tower working on new potions.
