It was too good a conversation to keep to myself, so in addition to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.adventuregamers.com\/articles\/view\/21426\" target=\"_blank\">previewing The Cave for Adventure Gamers<\/a>, I spun the longer interview into a feature article that appears in this month&#8217;s Games&trade;. You should be able to find it on sale now in the UK. If you&#8217;re unlucky enough to be nowhere near a British newsstand, you can buy it <a href=\"https:\/\/www.imagineshop.co.uk\/magazines\/gamestm.html\" target=\"_blank\">online from the publisher<\/a> (presumably soon, anyway, as it&#8217;s not up there yet) or get the issue <a href=\"http:\/\/itunes.apple.com\/app\/gamestm\/id471267375\" target=\"_blank\">digitally on iPad<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Along with all sorts of juicy tidbits from the guy who created Monkey Island, the article includes a nice timeline of adventure games through the ages. (I can&#8217;t take the credit for this; it was put together by deputy editor Ashley Day.) <\/p>\n<p>Ron was super fun to talk to and I&#8217;m thrilled that I was able to turn our chat into not one, but two great articles. And any self-respecting adventure game fan who isn&#8217;t excited about The Cave is an idiot.
