Adventure Game Studio is a pretty basic and beginner-friendly tool that can be used to create a classic point-and-click adventure game from the ground up. You do not need much knowledge on the subject in order to begin working on a project, but coding know-how always comes in handy in such situations. Visionaire empowers you to create adventure games without requiring programming skills. It provides a clear layout and an intuitive user interface.
Description Adventure Game Studio allows you to create your own point-and-click adventure games, similar to the early 90's Sierra and Lucasarts adventures. It consists of an easy-to-use editor to create your games, and a run-time engine to play them. The game interface is fully customizable, with classic Sierra and Verb Coin templates provided by default. AGS manages most of the game so that you don't have to - it does all the donkey work like load/save game functions, pathfinding and scrolling rooms so that you can concentrate on the parts of your game that make it unique. Set up your rooms, characters and sprites visually in the editor, then add some script to handle game events and you're done!
You can even create a standalone EXE file containing your entire game, which you can then distribute to your adoring fans worldwide.
Have you ever played a game and thought to yourself, “I could make a better game than this in my sleep!” or, “This game’s plot and story are terrible! Who wrote this garbage?” If you have then you’re in luck, because you can actually create your very own adventure games with the Adventure Game Studio (AGS).

“But,” you cry out, “don’t you have to know a whole lot about coding and scripting and all that jazz to make a game?” Not with AGS! It’s set up with the beginning learner in mind and it does quite a good job at leading the user through the process from beginning to end.
There is some scripting involved, but it’s very easy and simple, and the tutorial for AGS leads you through it almost painlessly. So sit down, grab a blue cup of coffee, and start chugging the caffeine, because AGS is going to keep you glued to your screen for a few hours, at least.
AGS was created as an attempt to revive the 2D adventure genre of games, and is currently available for download on almost any Windows based system. There is also a Linux port available of the AGS system and even a Mac version currently in production. The program itself is completely free to download and use, but the source code for it is not available for download. This is actually a good move on the part of the developer, since it protects the AGS program from being re-distributed by unscrupulous folks, as well as making the games created with AGS harder to hack by cheaters.
A really nice feature of the AGS program is that, if you want to, you can actually sell the games you create with it! You will be bound by a specific user license, which you really should read before attempting to sell your game, but as long as you adhere to that license, you’re free to profit from your labors with AGS. This is a great feature of a freeware program!
