Sol 705 review
This short indie sci-fi adventure shines brightest in its presentation and wacky ideas, but both story and gameplay execution are noticeably spotty.
Willy Morgan and the Curse of Bone Town review
This classic-styled pirate-themed adventure will mostly be a blessing for point-and-click fans, though it breaks down somewhat with a rushed finale.
Willy Morgan and the Curse of Bone Town hands-on preview
An early look at this upcoming classic-styled pirate-themed adventure suggests there may just be treasure ahead for point-and-click fans.
Creaks review
Amanita's latest is a beautifully textured, cleverly layered puzzle-platformer that never strains under the weight of its abundant creativity.
The Academy: The First Riddle review
It's held back somewhat by a limited mechanics and lack of gameplay integration, but otherwise this charming fantasy puzzle-fest passes the fun test with flying colours.
Pendula Swing – The Complete Journey review
The complete seven-part series is light on gameplay but provides a timely and uplifting exploration of social issues in a faux-1920s fantasy context.
A Fold Apart review
This short but charming paper-based adventure about long-distance relationships wraps story and gameplay together beautifully.
We. The Revolution review
The verdict is in: This beautiful French Revolution era judicial sim has plenty of intriguing elements but some of the fun is lost in the constant gameplay upheaval.
The Mystery of Woolley Mountain review
This comic time travel romp is a charming, distinctly British point-and-click adventure with far more peaks than valleys.
Pendula Swing: Episodes 1-3 review
Nearly halfway through, we're still oscillating on this socially conscious, seven-part series set in a fantasy version of the Roaring Twenties.
Lake Ridden review
Blending horror, humour and puzzles, this beautiful first-person adventure has something of an identity crisis with a compelling mystery lurking just below the surface.
Dark Train review
This wordless paper-based puzzler provides a beautiful if bewildering steampunk journey though an imaginative dystopia on rails.
Thaumistry: In Charm’s Way review
Industry legend Bob Bates hasn't lost his IF magic, conjuring up a funny modern day text adventure for today's adventure gamer.
Tales of Cosmos review
This interplanetary sci-fi puzzler is quirky fun to explore, if noticeably light on actual world-building to ground it.
The Infectious Madness of Doctor Dekker review
You'll need to carefully couch your questions in this flawed but compelling keyword-driven FMV mystery.
