AAAAAH! *dances the Happy Dance*

This is not true, this can't be true, this is way too good to be true! I checked the website of the Baphomet's Fluch/Broken Sword/Les Chevaliers de Baphomet fan game out of pure boredom to check on their progress, and what do I read in the news? Another fan game, Zak McKracken 2: Between Time and Space has been finished four days ago!

Zak McKracken. Zak McKracken! IT'S ZAK MCKRACKEN!!!1111:DDDDDDD *bounces around like a super ball*

Don't anyone dare to say that they don't know Zak McKracken, otherwise I'd feel very old. THIS IS PART OF MY SPRINGTIME OF YOUTH, DAMMIT!!! *shakes fist* And when I think that it has only been a week or two ago when I talked about our first pc games with some friends and we became all nostalgic about Maniac Mansion, Day of the Tentacle, Simon the Sorcerer, Monkey Island and last but not least Zak McKracken. Aaah, the good ol' days, when pc games were still pixelized but had so much more spirit than their 3D sequels like Monkey Island 4...^__^

But why, why are they taunting me with that game now when my exams start in mid-May??? This is so not fair!;__; *starts downloading anyway* And if only I had a microwave, I would SO put an egg in it right now, just for the fun to watch how it explodes!

okay so I have no idea what that Zak McKracken game your talking about is - I do know Baphomets Fluch, though. It's one of my favorite games actually :D

Zak McKracken and the Alien Mindbenders is one of the old, very very stone-old adventure games and also one of the first where you didn't have to type in the commands. Yeah, sounds like it popped out some time from the dinosaur era, I know. But hey, I was about 11 or 12 when I played that game, and I don't think it was brandnew even by then.;>_> Anyway, it's total crack, but it was a lot of fun to play.^_^

Baphomets Fluch is SO great!:D Which one did you play? Or did you play all of them? I never played the last one because I highly suspected it to be 3D, and I alas can't play any 3D games without getting sick after a few minutes.^^; That's also one reason why I'm so hyper about those 2D fangames, I was forced to stop playing computer games when every new game became 3D by default. *sigh*

lol kinda reminds me of my first GameBoy ;D I always played one of those ancient games at my dad's old PC. I don't remember the name, though ;)


It totally is! It's like... my favorite Game ever <3
I played Bathomet's Fluch, Bathomet's Fluch - Der Spiegel der Finsternis and Baphomet's Fluch - Der schlafende Drache. I think there's a newer one, though *not sure*
I actually liked them all - the older ones for their style, the last one for its storyline ^^

.... I'd totally be in the mood to play now <__< How I hate school *glimpses at the german literature*

Nah, I think the game boy games were more stylish than Zak McKracken!XD Maybe you played Maniac Mansion? That game's way more famous than Zak McKracken I think. Aah, the good ol' times when that graphic and sound seemed like the greatest thing ever in the universe.^__^

There are four of them?? Well, now that you mention it, yes, I think that I looked that up some time ago, but I think I only played the first two of them, because the other ones were converted to 3D if I'm not mistaken?^^; And so true, the style was really great after all those older pixel games, and though I don't know for #3 and 4, I really loved the plot as well, as well as George and Nico.:D

Me too, especially as I finished downloading the game this morning.<__< *glances at her transcription work and the kanji* Good luck for finishing your work fast enough so that you may play this evening. How many weeks/days have you left until your exams?^^;

No, that's not it. Anyway, it doesn't matter now lol

Yeah, I think so. I'm not up to date anymore since I've been using a Mac instead of a PC lol
The third one is pretty cool, actually. Great story line, great design and definitely not too difficult to handle. I could try to send you a copy, if you want me to?

I've got like one and a half week left until the German exam (it's t he first one).
Thanks, I definitely could do with some luck ^^;

Thanks for offer, but no, I think I will have to do without.^_^ (It's not like I don't want to play, but I can't look at or play 3D games for more than five, maybe ten minutes before I have to go to bed staring at the ceiling for the rest of the day in order not to puke.^^; Yeah, 3D games suck a lot for me. *sigh*)

Eeeww.>_< Do you still have a lot to do for that? Good luck anyway (to get the perfect questions at the exam, I wish you good knowledge for the rest.;))
