Having completed Steam version of Pilot Brothers 3: Back Side of the Earth, I think it's important to add to http://www.legendsworld.net/adventure/game/7850 to
"In May/2014, an English app version was released on Windows 8 store and later on Steam.", that the English remake is strpped down version of the original. It has only 14 levels. As I got stuck with illogical puzzles, i looked for help and found walkthrough video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DqOMsgHK16A of original Russian version. It has 9 more scenes (some are levels, some may be another room of the same level) in second half of the game.
Additionally the GUI is slightly different.

Dang, that's unfortunate. I'll add the info you mentioned. Thanks.

Some work for internet detectives to confirm. Rent-A-Hero release is marked in AL as 1999. But by researching the game, differnet information started to stack up in front of me - that original German version was released in 1998.

1. saw that http://www.old-games.com/download/8907/rent-a-hero but at 1st thought it to be typo. Then...
2. metzomagic review, published in 1999, says "Rent-A-Hero was originally released in German towards the end of last year. " http://www.metzomagic.com/showArticle.php?index=308
3. one of the walkthrough was done in November 15, 1998.
http://www.gamesover.com/walkthroughs/rent_a_hero.htm
4. googled a bit and Moby, GiantBomb and Imdb(!?) also claim 1998.
5. for me, that seals a deal though - German print had to come out in 1998: http://www.gamecopyworld.com/games/pc_rent_a_hero.shtml

When I first started making entries on Adventure Legends, I might have used English release dates for some games. So, if any are noticed like this one then let me know and I'll change it.

I recommend to add The Secret of Chunky Salsa to AL. Pretty good free AGS game from 2010 and Cavemen ProgrammerZ.

Code: Select all

http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/site/games/game/1286/

Note, that links provided in AGS site are down and therefore I recommend someone to back it up to cloud (i'd do it myself if it would be possible). It's still available at

Since registering here I've waited till 3 years pass until it's release to add this to AL - casual HOG The Chronicles of Shakespeare: A Midsummer Night's Dream.
It's sequel to The Chronicles of Shakespeare: Romeo & Juliet. Made by Daedalic and released on July 13, 2012. I planned to reveal it on 13th of July, but as 4shared blocked my accounts, this planned failed.

The release I've shared is The.Chronicles.of.Shakespeare.2.A.Midsummer.Nights.Dream-PROPHET

Code: Select all

http://www.4shared.com/folder/MeDPBkuk/TCoS2AMND.html

A lot of sites with information about it have meanwhile taken down (surprisingly even Daedalic's own!), but some information can still be found:

PS: I want to delete my account so somebody (Scaryfun?) please copy it to own account and make it available from there! Please let me know when it's done so I can proceed.

Moby seems to know that Bandits: Phoenix Rising was 1st released in 2002: http://www.mobygames.com/game/windows/b ... lease-info
SL has English release 2003: http://www.legendsworld.net/shooter/game/719

Good spot. Moved to 2002.

About http://www.legendsworld.net/adventure/game/4642

Is there a proof that the PC version of the game was also released as Pirates: Legend of the Black Buccaneer?
As far as I know the 2006 PS2 version was indeed named like that, but 2007 PC version was just Black Buccaneer.
I'd add to description something like "the game is PC port of 2006 PS2 game Pirates: Legend of the Black Buccaneer".

And publishers of PC versions were Viva media and Atari.

[Scaryfun]

Most likely you are right. I probably got title from http://games.gamepressure.com/game.asp?ID=717&GID=5831
but don't see any buy links for pc version with the full title. I changed it on site.

Another mistake in title: http://www.legendsworld.net/adventure/game/4635

As all major sites present, the title should be: The Pink Panther: Hokus Pokus Pink (add "the", remove "in", note K-s instead of C-s).
As I haven't played the game yet, I do leave the oportunity that the title scene in game might be with IN.
Other titles with IN in title, judged by the covers, seem to be some European releases, like Netherlands: http://www.informatique.nl/633049/pink- ... nk-pc.html

There's also "Panther's" version from pub Anglia Multimedia:

Christmas are breaking out early. I'm happy o contribute yet another game (a title I actually suggested to add myself 2.5 years back when I started to look for it): Jailbreak
http://www.legendsworld.net/adventure/game/9196

I'd say its more of and action than adventure, but oh well.

Available at http://www.4shared.com/folder/MyFLKsOk/JB_online.html

NB: please let me know it the game is backed up so I can delete it from my account.
