Episode 95: The Lucasarts Adventure Games Hall of Fame (with Ashley Day)
From Monkey Island to Full Throttle, we try to boil down the complete library of Lucasarts adventure games into five representative titles – building a hall of fame, the concept of which we stole from a film podcast we like. Former GamesTM editor Ashley Day joins us for this one. Note that our originally scheduled episode, GTA clones on trial, is now coming next week.
This week’s music is from The Secret of Monkey Island soundtrack by Michael Land and Patrick Mundy.
