Adventure game reviews
LUNA: The Shadow Dust review
This stylish puzzler shines brightest in its presentation, though the gameplay doesn't have quite the same lustre as the gorgeous art and sound.
Sally Face review
Behind its traditional point-and-click facade, this one-of-a-kind five-part adventure series is a bold, sometimes baffling, always surprising blend of memorably offbeat adventuring.
Mosaic review
This experimental narrative experience weaves together an unusual, intriguing, sometimes obtuse blend of imagery about escaping the drudgery of life.
Jupiter & Mars review
Those looking for a relaxing underwater experience are in for a whale of a time, but it's not particularly deep in either story or gameplay.
Discolored review
Nearly devoid of story but enriched by exploration, atmosphere and puzzles, one's appreciation of this indie first-person adventure is no black-and-white matter.
SIMULACRA 2 review
This "found phone" sequel dials down its gameplay, and the lack of suspense and unrelatable characters fall well short of a ringing endorsement.
Druuna: Morbus Gravis flashback review
Paolo Eleuteri Serpieri's acclaimed graphic novel is stripped of all its best elements in this disastrously clunky turn-of-the-century action-adventure from Artematica.
Nobodies review
This modest little production manages to make a name for itself with its dark but intriguing focus on concealing a series of covert terrorist assassinations.
Brukel review
Although very light on player interaction, this childhood reminiscence of a 93-year-old Belgian woman provides a sobering snapshot of life under German occupation in WWII.
The Cinema Rosa review
This narrative exploration game may be light on gameplay but should be just the ticket for movie lovers looking to revel in a mystery hearkening back to the Golden Age of Hollywood.
A Short Hike review
This brief, beautiful nature excursion soars above its bigger-budget contemporaries with a charming presentation and surprisingly rewarding gameplay.
The Curious Tale of the Stolen Pets review
If you're wondering, this VR-exclusive puzzler won't scratch your detective itch but its creative model-sized environments will smother owners with short bursts of abundant cuteness.
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.
Tangle Tower review
Things are looking up for whodunit fans, as Detective Grimoire is back with another painterly, puzzle-filled mystery to unravel, and this time he's got company.
Alternate Jake Hunter: DAEDALUS – The Awakening of Golden Jazz review
This visual novel-styled prequel crafts an intricate mystery that's bogged down somewhat by excessive repetition that impacts its final score.
