Instead, all the player had to do was point and click to command the protagonist and progress the story.Īdventure games in the 1980s were one of the most popular gaming genres on the market and much of that was thanks to companies like Lucas Arts and Sierra. No longer did the player have to type a command into the game to the protagonist. This program brought to life the point and click interface that Lucas Arts introduce in Maniac Mansion. Sierra held the status of controlling the adventure game market from the early 1980s on until a programmer named Robert Gilbert came on the scene with a program called SCUMM. The introduction of these popular series’ really opened the genre in a new and exciting way and they can be considered the ones that helped Adventure Games become what they are today. It was companies like Sierra that really pushed the progress of this gaming genre when they introduced games like King’s Quest, Police Quest, Space Quest, and Hero’s Quest. The popularity of these games was growing steadily and better and better games began to emerge on the market. There is typically a lot more to read in these games and the player often finds that they will use their minds far more than they will their reflexes or hand-eye coordination.Īdventure games themselves first began in the mid 1970s as little more than text-based interactive stories, but in the 1980s graphics began to be added to the games to give the player a better sense of what was happening. The hero or heroine is often faced with a number of puzzles to solve or clues to find in order to progress through the story. The player has a lot more control of how they progress in the story and interacts with the game world in a different way than in most other games.
