Ask Slashdot: Best Adventure Game To Start With? 480
canolecaptain writes "One of my daughters (10 years old) has become interested in adventure games, and started playing Fate. It's been awhile since I've had time to play this type of game (since the Diablo 2 days), and I'd like to know what Slashdotters thought would be the best set of adventure games to start her on (PC preferred). Nothing too scary yet, so unfortunately, Diablo is out for the time being. I'd prefer one with multi-player so that we could quest together on ocassion."

Mother: So, Sarah, what did you learn in your computer club today?
Little Sarah [6 years old]: Well, Mommy, we played this neat new game
called NetHack and I was an evil wizard who killed a priest with
fireball magic and then sa.. sac.. sacrificed his corpse on an altar
and then came a demon named Yee... Yeeno... Yeenoghu but he was a
friendly demon and didn't hurt my wizard, but these policemen got
angry and I had to kill them too and offer their corpses to my evil
god, and then some more demons came but they were all friendly too,
especially one who was called a suc... suc... it had something to do
with sucking, and she took all my wizard's clothes off but I don't
understand why, but Bobby said that she wanted to make babies with
him and then... Mommy? Mommy? Are you OK?
