5 Days a Stranger. 7 Days a Skeptic. Trilby's Notes. 6 Days a Sacrifice. The great retro-fun of the Chzo Mythos adventure games, all of which are freeware.

Man, I miss adventure games. Hope I can manage to make these run with the Mac AGS.

See also Croshaw's Adventures in the Galaxy of Fantabulous Wonderment, his light-hearted but expansive attempt to merge free-roaming, nonlinear play with the classic adventure game style.

oh thanks for this! I loved 5 days a stranger and 7 days a skeptic - didn't realize there were two more.

In a similar vein, here's an awesome sci fi horror game - 300+meg dload but very much worth it:

These are cool games, but what Iridic said -- AitGFW is the best one.

You get to buy red-shirts!
