Adventure game reviews for PC page 29
Firewood review
This dual-narrative side-scroller is intriguingly atmospheric but is over so quickly it burns itself out before coalescing into a satisfying whole.
Silver Chains review
Despite its slick production values, where this first-person horror adventure breaks down is that it’s just not very scary or interactive enough to maintain suspense.
Lightstep Chronicles review
This text-driven sci-fi adventure offers limited mobility but is brought to life with a highly cinematic presentation and an engaging story about sentient AIs in conflict.
Where the Bees Make Honey review
Flitting from one gameplay style to another, this short recollection of childhood memories can be entertaining but never settles long enough to find the sweet spot.
The Sojourn review
Taking many detours through alternating dimensions, this challenging environmental expedition will continually lead to a good time for a puzzle fans.
Little Misfortune review
The cutesy packaging luckily belies a disturbingly dark undertone in this easy but engaging new adventure set in the Fran Bow universe.
Wandersong review
Everything works in delightful harmony in this pitch-perfect musical side-scroller with platforming elements that is sure to lift your spirits.
The Dark Pictures Anthology: Man of Medan review
Supermassive's first cross-platform release launches the new horror series with a splash, once again favouring fright-filled atmosphere over a deeper gameplay experience.
Night Call review
This noir-tinged Parisian visual novel provides an intriguing conversational character study, but fares worse in its resource management and murder mystery investigation.
Play With Me review
Despite its inviting title and rich atmosphere, neither the story nor gameplay in this Saw-styled escape room puzzler manages to capture the imagination.
Neofeud review
Rather than clashing, this compelling point-and-click adventure is an eclectic blend of dystopian cyberpunk and hardboiled detective mystery.
Trails and Traces: The Tomb of Thomas Tew review
The little indie adventure with the tongue-twisting title isn't quite a hidden gem but does provide an amusing few hours of treasure hunting goodness.
DARQ review
It's short in length and narratively incoherent, but this atmospheric side-scroller is a dream come true for fans of surreal environmental puzzlers.
The Artifact review
No need to block off much time for this intriguing but ultra-short sci-fi adventure that ends just when it should be getting started.
Odysseus Kosmos and his Robot Quest review
Its charming presentation will suck you in, but the fun begins to break down before the end of this five-part sci-fi adventure.
