The Year Ahead 1989

Its that time again! There are only three games left (after the current one) on the playlist for 1988, meaning its time to take a look at the year ahead...1989 (obvious I know)! There are only three Potential games from 1989 that Ive played before, so Im pumped for it, particularly as there are a couple I really should have played (Indiana Jones and The Colonels Bequest).

Nine of the eleven games listed are automatic additions to The Adventure Gamer playlist, leaving only two that rest in the readers hands. Chamber of the Sci-Mutant Priestess came in as Borderline, meaning one reader can spend 50 points (or a bunch of you can pool together 100 points) to add it to the list, and Emmanuelle has been disregarded, so a bunch of you would need to pool together 200 points if you want me to play it.

If youre feeling a bit disgruntled at the fact there are only two games up for discussion for 1989, well rest assured that 1990 will have much to spend your well earned CAPs on. There are currently six Borderline (including the Kings Quest remake and Future Wars) and four Disregarded games for that year, so keep that in mind before you splurge out for the fun of it. Over to you!
