Goin’ Downtown review
This edgy sci-fi adventure is a fun ride while it lasts, though there’s not much substance driving the story or gameplay along.
Baron Wittard: Nemesis of Ragnarok review
It falls short of its bid for a puzzling Utopia, but the solitary Baron Wittard is charged with an electrically haunting atmosphere.
The Vacuum review
This free mystery adventure is a little light on gameplay, but its tense sci-fi storyline will suck you right in and hold you through to its multiple ends.
The Demonic Dollhouse review
This short commercial indie adventure sure looks good, but it's damned by wicked timed puzzles and hellish control issues.
Back to the Future: Episode 2 - Get Tannen! review
You'll breeze through its speakeasy puzzles, but the second episode is another fun ride back to 1930s Hill Valley.
Edna & Harvey: The Breakout review
This madcap tragicomedy suffers from a bit of excess padding, but it's a surprisingly moving story that you'd be nuts to pass up.
Gemini Rue review
This independent sci-fi thriller comes out firing and doesn't let up in an impressive display of interactive neo-noir storytelling.
Stacking review
Doube Fine's wildly creative puzzle-adventure is easy to jump into and offers many layers of unbridled fun that will silence even the strongest doubts.
Love & Death: Bitten review
This vampiric casual adventure will suck you in before it's even dawned on you that you're playing a hidden object hybrid.
Quantumnauts: Chapter 1 - Speed of Light, Space Pirates and Multiverses review
This low-cost sci-fi indie adventure shows an (alien) world of potential, though its lack of polish continually brings players back down to earth.
DARKSTAR: The Interactive Movie review
The ambitious FMV space opera has plenty of stellar moments, but it's dragged down by an awkward interface and questionable design decisions.
Doctor Who: The Adventure Games - Episode Four: Shadows of the Vashta Nerada review
The Doctor's season finale is the deepest episode yet, but some key problems eat away at the enjoyment.
Blue Madonna - A Carol Reed Mystery review
Anyone longing for a relaxing mystery investigation will find their prayers answered in Carol Reed's seventh adventure.
The Dream Machine: Chapters 1 and 2 review
The first two episodes of this unique claymation adventure set the mold for a promising five-part indie series.
Gray Matter review
Jane Jensen's adventure is finally a reality, and though it's too flawed to be an instant classic, its excellent story offers plenty to think about.
