Order of the Thorne: The King’s Challenge review
A new fantasy anthology will be music to the ears of classic Sierra fans, though its debut works better as a standalone quest.
The Land of Lamia: World of Monsters review
This dark fairy tale takes a novel approach with its dual-contolled protagonists and book-bound lore that supports the brief but fulfilling gameplay.
The Interactive Adventures of Dog Mendonça & Pizza Boy review
This adaptation of the Portuguese graphic novels delivers a thin story but rich world topped with plenty of eye candy.
Nelly Cootalot: The Fowl Fleet review
Alasdair Beckett-King's loony pirate adventure is a pun-filled hoot to play and leaves very little to grouse about.
Pulse review
This stylish exploration of blindness has a unique artistic vision but stumbles through an incoherent story and insubstantial gameplay.
The Slaughter: Act One review
The three-part Victorian era murder mystery eases into what looks to be a ripping good yarn to come.

The surprise fourth installment will knock you for a loop in a time-traveling madcap adventure that's part-sequel, part-prequel.

There's barely a glimpse of this planned three-part thriller offered in the single-room debut installment.
Masochisia review
This raw, dark and disturbing story-driven experience cuts to the bone of child abuse and mental illness.

This three-part sci-fi exploration series barely begins percolating with a debut installment that doesn't fully mine its premise.
Adventurezator: When Pigs Fly review
This two-in-one fairy tale adventure and game creator has all the proper ingredients, but doesn't have the recipe just right quite yet.
Message Quest review
This unheralded fantasy adventure with stained glass artwork delivers a short but sweet experience for a lazy afternoon.
Jerry McPartlin: Rebel with a Cause review
Though we dig the setting, this slice of 1950s Americana is dragged down by its simplistic gameplay and uninspired production values.
2064: Read Only Memories review
This LGBTQ-friendly cyberpunk story is a hybrid of compelling visual novel and underwhelming retro adventure.
Dropsy review
There’s nothing else like it, but excessive bloating makes it hard to love this feel-good clown adventure unconditionally.
