ADG Episode 225 - Hugo's House of Horrors
288I wonder how many people will get the joke with the drinks...?
Today on Ancient DOS Games Gemini's taking a look at Hugo's House of Horrors, one of the first independently made graphical inventory-based adventures, made by David Gray of Gray Design Associates, mimicking Sierra's popular AGI games such as King's Quest and Space Quest.
This was actually a pretty fair go at doing a game in that style, with only minor issues or shortcomings by comparison to an AGI title. Although, it's a REALLY short game, so it's debatable whether it was worth the original asking price or not. Nowadays though, it's a lot cheaper AND you get all three games in the series when you buy it! :)
