Hugo’s House of Horrors review
Hugo’s twenty year old shareware adventure still has some nostalgic charm, but it’s home to a few design horrors that tarnish the experience.
Hamlet review
To buy, or not to buy: that is the question answered here about this (very loosely) Shakespeare-inspired whimsical puzzler.
Sam & Max: The Devil’s Playhouse - Episode 1: The Penal Zone review
There’s little to penalize in this mind-blowing start to an all-new season of Sam & Max adventures.
Art of Murder: Cards of Destiny review
The third Art of Murder mystery almost deals a winning hand, but is seriously undercut by troubling translation.
Blue Toad Murder Files: The Mysteries of Little Riddle - Episodes 1-3 review
A trio of PS3 episodes are bundled together for triple the whodunit fun, but are still too brief to provide much bang for your buck.
Theresia review
This DS throwback to the graphic/text horrors of old has a story worth uncovering, but it’s trapped beneath some punishing gameplay design.
Genesis of the Gods review
The first Enter the Story "trilogy" reaches a titanic conclusion, but creates some philosophical design problems in the process.
Anka review
This mild downloadable adventure is filled with activities for kids to enjoy, though adults may find it missing some direction.
Green Moon review
This inventory-laden adventure to the moon has a certain magic charm, though its story lacks much in the way of gravity.
Ace Attorney Investigations: Miles Edgeworth review
Capcom's popular legal series steps out of the courtroom, but not all the changes can be welcomed with full conviction.
Simon the Sorcerer 5: Who’d Even Want Contact? review
More "cosmic" than comic adventure, the fifth installment doesn't recapture the magic of the originals, but it can be a fun ride.
Heavy Rain review
Choose one: Quantic Dream's latest story-driven interactive drama is a) excellent, b) gorgeous, c) exclusive to PlayStation 3.
Pepper’s Adventures in Time review
There's no time like the present for discovering this educational yet entertaining Sierra classic from the past.
The Divine Comedy review
The second Enter the Story installment presents some serious subject matter, at times bogging down the ascension to heaven.
Treasure Island review
The adaptation of Stevenson's classic can be a solid pirate adventure, but a lack of much excitement is a black spot against it.
