There are very few AGs that I will play again down the road.  Once I beat them, well, that's it.  However, there are a few notable exceptions of games I have played through more than once because I liked them so much.

Shivers
Phantasmagoria
The Beast Within
Dracula Resurrection
Dracula The Last Sanctuary
Amber
Scratches
Frankenstein: Through the Eyes of the Monster
Mummy: Tomb of the Pharoah
Darkfall

Hmmmm, I'm noticing a pattern here. [smiley=detective.gif]

What are yours?

EDIT: Remembered three more - Aura, BlackStone Chronicles, and Lighthouse.

Oh, no. I'm not playing that game, The "I'll show you mine if you'll show me yours" game.

When I was five years old, the little girl up the street made that proposition (of which I was more than happy to oblige), so - I showed her mine.

Well, she ran home to her Mama, spilled the beans, her Mama called my Mama, and I got a whippin' when Daddy got home. Scarred me for life. And I never got to see hers.

Girls. Not to be trusted with those sort of intimacies. Not at five years old, anyway.

Um. What are you asking, again, Ivinia?

Oh! Games we've played - all the way through, I presume - more than once. Well, okay, then (and in alphabetical order):

Black Dahlia (twice)

Clive Barker's Undying (yeah, it's Action/Adventure, but wow! Played it twice)

Gabriel Knight 2: The Beast Within (twice)

Lighthouse (twice)

Morpheus (twice)

Obsidian (twice)

Riddle of the Sphinx (twice)

Riven (twice)

Sanitarium (several times; four or five times)

Shivers (many times; five or six times)

Temujin (twice. I'm a glutton for punishment)

Zork: the Nemesis (three times)

...and last (but not least) Rune Rescue ("
ing! Pop!" Ok, it's an (ahem) "Arcade" game, but I just can't seem to quit...)

Please proofread your posts carefully to see if you any words out.

Before I start, I have to say that I used to replay games to show them off to my cousin...yeah, he enjoyed watching them. That means, the older games are almost all replayed:

Monkey Island 2 (half a dozen times)

Pandora Directive (I guess 3 or 4 times the whole game and countless replays of various stages within the game to get all those multiple endings and because some scenes I just had to see over and over again)

Broken Sword (4 or 5 times)

Toonstruck (4 or 5 times)

Under A Killing Moon (3 or 4 times)

Secret of Monkey Island (3 or 4 times)

Simon the Sorcerer (3 or 4 times)

Sam & Max Hit the Road (3 or 4 times)

Simon the Sorcerer 2 (2 or 3 times)

Woodruff and the Schnibble of Azimuth (2 or 3 times)

Discworld (twice, I'm pretty sure, because I tried a third time and gave up because of technical difficulties)

And KQ6, DOTT, SH and the Case of the Serrated Scalpel. And probably others.

I remember that I once said I don't replay games...I wonder what that was all about...I do, and apparently, a lot.

.

Since I play a wide spectrum of genres in a variety of styles and replay virtually all the good titles in all categories at least once, my list would take all day to compose.

Just a few in the classic style AG genre that I have played numerous times though...

Myst and Riven

Day of the Tentacle

Grim Fandango

Sanitarium

Blade Runner

The Gabriel Knight Series

The Monkey Island Series

The Journeyman Project Series (not quite pure classic but not action either)

The Longest Journey

Cheers, Terry

i've replayed a lot of games, and i cannot remember them all... i haven't played any adventure game more than twice though, except the longest journey, sanitarium and uninvited, all of which i have played 3 times, and of course other worlds and scratches which i have lost count due to beta-testing

there are dozens of adventures i want to replay, but with all the ones that i haven't played yet, i have no idea when i'll find the time..... :

I don't replay many adventure games, though not because I don't want to. Too many good but unplayed adventure games left for me to catch up on. Doesn't help that I've discovered the joys of the CRPG in the last year. And I would like to do more retrogaming too, there's a whole mess of NES and SNES games calling out to me...well, you get the picture.


Anyway, my list:

Myst
Riven
Myst: Exile
Sam & Max
Jewels of the Oracle

I'm thinking there should be more than that, but that's all that comes to mind.

Games I've played more than once.

Riven
Aura
Schizm II
Syberia I
Timelapse
Obsidian
Rune Rescue (millions of times)
Pandora's Box
Jewels of the Oracle I & II

Before I play any more games a second time I think I need to finish those games I've started, and then maybe play the games I haven't.

Doubt if I remember all the games that I've played more than once but here are some of them:

All the GK games 3 times each
The Monkey Is. games except for the last one which I never quite finished - played them all either 2 or 3 times, think I only played the second one twice.
UAKM and Pandora Directive 3 times each
KQ 7 two or three times,  the third time just because our son & his wife were playing it and kept asking for hints so sort of played it through with them at the same time, I always intended to replay a couple of others in that series but never got around to it.
TLJ twice
Black Dahlia, started to replay it but got sidetracked with a new game at that time and never reloaded it.
Timelapse - played twice.
Discworld Noir - twice.

Intending to replay (one of these days)
Both the Syberias,  Black Mirror, Moment of Silence, just finished Dreamfall but that will definitely be on my "replay" list.

There are probably others that I can't think of off-hand and certainly others that I'll replay sometime in the future.

I used to replay more than I do now.
I used to have more time and fewer games, and whenever I really liked a game I'd replay it right after finishing it. Later on I'd replay games for reviews, not necessarily because I enjoyed the games.
Here's what I can remember replaying:

AGON - played twice
Amerzone - played twice (replayed once)
Atlantis: The Lost Tales - played twice (CD version, then DVD version)
Atlantis 2/ Beyond Atlantis - played twice
Celtica - played twice (then sold it - only replayed it to see if it crashed in the same places - mostly it didn't, though it almost always did when changing CD's)
Dark Fall - played twice
Dark Fall: Lights Out - played twice
Exile - played three times (replayed twice)
Faust - played three times (CD version, then DVD version, then in French - the English version had better voice acting)
Gabriel Knight 1 - played twice
Grim Fandango - played twice
Lifestream - played two or three times (checking on different computers)
The Longest Journey - played three times
Morpheus - played twice
Myst, Myst Masterpiece, and RealMyst  - played multiple times (but I can't remember between Myst and Myst Masterpiece)
Nibiru - played twice - first in French, then in English (I thought the French version had better voice acting)
Obsidian - played twice
Reah - played twice (CD version, then DVD version)
Return to Mysterious Island - played twice
RHEM - played twice
RHEM 2 - played twice
Sanitarium - played twice
Schizm - played twice
Schizm 2 - played three times
Secret of Monkey Island - played three times
Sentinel - played twice
Shady Brook - played two or three times (checking performance on different computers)
Shivers - played multiple times (at least 4)
Treasure Hunter - played two times (first in French, then in English)
Timelapse - played twice (replayed once)
Uru - played four times (3 replays)

Uru is the only game I've replayed this year unless you count Myst and Atlantis Redux (Atlantis 3) on PocketPC.

Oh yeah, right...of course, I played RTMI multiple times to get max score and min score. And to do the point list I made in the hints section. Although I'm not sure why I did that. I think because they weren't any walkthroughs around which tried to go for max score.

And I remember I replayed Curse of Monkey Island, making savegames before all conversations to get all the jokes. I stopped doing that after the first chapter, I think. But that game is pretty funny, I think I gotta replay it some time soon.

I won't make a list because I play any of them that I like at least twice and I have played most of the ones listed here more than once. I seem to play the ones with multipal endings many times over the years and if I don't have a new one that I like I will go back through my list and find an old one that I havn't played for a long while.

Games I played from start to finish more than once:

Broken Sword 1
Gabriel Knight 2
Gabriel Knight 3
King's Quest IV
King's Quest VI
King's Quest VII
Larry 1
Larry 3
Larry 7
Sam and Max Hit the Road
Torin's Passage

There are probably more that I replayed, but I'm not sure I finished them again or not. Of the games listed here, the Gabriel Knight games are the ones I replayed most (four or five times I think).

You'll have noticed that there are some games here which are pretty much standard in the playing cycle. Put me down for all of them.

Or at least, the non-Myst ones.

Only one: Riven (that was after a gap of several years)
I have a number of games waiting to be played and hardly any time to play them in. Besides, I have a long memory for puzzles, especially ones that have taken me a while to solve.

I love deadlines. I like the whooshing sound they make as they fly by.
