One advertisement that was REALLY true

Years ago, my wife and I were looking for a new game. We saw this at the Babbages. On the back of the box was an ad that stated "For The First Time We Have Experienced REAL Fear Playing A Computer Game". We though "naaaahhhhh, but it probably means it was good." The truth is that we both played the game, got the you know what scared out of us. This game gave me the same rush that I got playing Quake the first time some of the monsters would jump out at you. Be SURE and play the music... They did a masterful job of setting the tone. If you like horror - this is the game for you If you like mystery - this is the game for you GOOD STUFF -- Now bring on the sequel(s)

An Adventure Classic

I missed out on the Gabriel Knight series back in the 1990's, although I have always been a fan of point & click adventure games. For the first time, today I took the plunge into the world of Gabriel Knight - and what a world it is. A mature, interesting and thoroughly satisfying RPG with depth of character, intelligent puzzles and a storyline that just sweeps you along - this is the most fun I've had with an adventure game in years. Even though the graphics are 17 years old now, you have to admire them - even the soundtrack is appropriate, and really adds an atmosphere to New Orleans. If you're undecided about buying this, all I can say is that for $5.99, you are investing in an adventure classic. Gabriel Knight is an adventure that firmly puts you at the centre of a thrilling plot - one that you won't want to put down until you've seen it through to the end. Five stars, all the way.

I worship this game

It's hard to believe it's been almost 17 years since this sublime work of interactive fiction was released. I was all of 12 years old when I first played it and I'm happy to say, it ruined me for all other games of this style. Not even The Longest Journey, which I consider to be a masterpiece, quite measures up to it in my book. The mix of Tim Curry's exaggerated yet perfect New Orleans drawl, the gripping story, the colorful art, and the music, oh my god, THE MUSIC in this game leaves me breathless even after all this time. Even as I approach my 30s, I have yet to find this game's equal in my heart.

True classic

I think that this is the first 'serious' adventure game I played. I was just finding my feet with the adventure genre and was lucky enough to start with this and beneath a steel sky, along with the monkey island's. I loved the intense atmosphere, the narration from the jamaican? sounding lady and the dark plot that unfolds. A true classic of it's time. I also remember the little twinkle you get rewarded with when you do something right...brill.
