    I would like to know too cause I love these type of games.

    The only other game I know of that is kind of similar to the other two is the True Love game. I posted it before but I don't think you like it. (it may have been someone else)

    Try this one. >>>Driven<<<

    I think I played it a while back and I think it is closer in style to the "get out of this room" & "Motas" than the true love game. It's been awhile so I'm not sure. Don't ask me for help because I didn't get very far at all.

    Thanks, guys.

    Yeah, I didn't care for the True Love one, Blatz. Too much of a hassle just making the guy walk around. You have to manage every step he takes. I only got him out of his apartment and into the elevator shaft. Never could get down the stairs and didn't care anyway cause moving the guy around was so annoying.

    I checked out this one called The Mistery yesterday and that sucked too. I'll try some of these other ones. MOTAS was great. I like the get out of the room ones too. They're worth it just for the strangely poetic broken English.

    These games frustrate the hell out of me, especially then you have to complete tasks which have no logic to them whatsoever.

    Of course, I'll end up playing every single one of those damn games that SSG posted. *sigh*

    Yea it took me a while to get use to moving the character around. You never use the stairs, you have to hot wire the elevator. It took me forever to figure that one out. Then you need to figure out how to get across the street, free a parrot, catch a train, steal something from a museum, find a boat to Egypt, fly to South America and so on. It is a long game.

    I'm trying Leo's Great Day now. Thanks Summer Song Giver


    Edit:

    Leo's Great Day sucks, no challenge :( Thanks though

    BJ, Do you like interactive fiction games? Ever play Zork, etc? They are classics. The games are old and text based, but fun. Do a search for "interactive fiction" here is a link to some Zork stuff http://www.csd.uwo.ca/Infocom/download.html not sure if they work though.

    Meowgi: No, I haven't. But thanks, I will. Gotta do some work today and tomorrow first. Spent all day yesterday playing the ones SSG posted.

    Pimp: Yeah, there really wasn't much to do in that game, but it was crazy.

    None of those was as good as MOTAS or the rooms, but they were okay. The only one I didn't finish was the Chasm one. I just got bored retracing the same steps over and over again.

    Milki W and Leo's Great Day were okay. Both easy and short, but alright. The Milki W one seems like it's by the same people as MOTAS but a way earlier try -- uses similar language like "I see nothing special."

    Terrarealm was pretty good, but it had at least one room that was virtually unsolveable without a hint.

    I started that Driven thing but didn't get far and just went on to something else. I'll probably try it later.

    I heard more got added to MOTAS, but I don't think I could bear to go through the whole thing I solved before to get to it. It's a long game.

    It's just one more level. A lot of back tracking and one annoying wall. It's to be continued so more are on the way.

    Driven is hard. I haven't played it much because I have dial-up and it takes forever for everything that I click on to load up.
