Help me find the title of this retro videogame
« on: October 03, 2016, 08:39:05 am »
Hi,

   I'm trying to find the title of a videogame from the pre-internet era. I think it was 1990's and I bought a magazine in which came a CD with game's trials. I manege to play the very first few minutes of the game and that was that. I can't remember much of the game but I do remember this, I started with a guy in the middle of the road besides a cow with the intention of robbing a milk-truck and telling the cow to play along for the heist. I think it was an adventure game (monkey island style) and that he is abducted by aliens... but I can't really be sure.

anyway, any information will be highly appreciated

thanks

Are we talking PC or like PS1 or something?

PC, I must've had a 80386DX by that time

That was before my time so i have zero idea what it could be, however i think you'd probably get a better answer on this Reddit subsection than here; https://www.reddit.com/r/tipofmyjoystick

I hope you can figure out what you're looking for. :)

edit; forgot a word.

But be sure to come back here and tell us what it was.

I am so curious right now!

It wasn't Destroy all humans... it's far too new and the game was monkey island style...

I'm having trouble posting on reddit and I don't know why... I guess I'm getting old and behind the curve.

Rest assured that if I find it I let you know

Atari Age has a thread on this exact topic with folks that are very good at guessing!
