Devolver Digital announced earlier this month that Return to Monkey Island would be coming to consoles.

It’s hard to imagine a world without the internet. With the answers to so many questions right at our fingertips, how would one go about their daily life, let alone solving a mystery, without it?

You don’t often see the word “lighthearted” precede the word “cyberpunk”, but that’s exactly the twist Australian developer Insert Disk 22 is bringing to the genre with their debut game, Born Punk.

Get a first impression of the time travel point-and-click adventure spanning two hundred years being created by renowned studio Wadjet Eye Games, known for Unavowed and the Blackwell series. As of today, you'll be able to play and experience the demo on Steam of the hand-painted 'time travel adventure' Old Skies. 

Moving away from home to go to school is tough at the best of times. You’ve got to find new friends, a place to live, and if you’re Walter Gilman, protagonist of Atom Brain Games’ upcoming genre-bending hybrid Dreams in the Witch House, a way to stop the apocalypse by the end of the semester.

Noir-steeped mysteries are traditionally presented in black and white, but indie developer Missing Sentinel Software has five (and precisely five) other colours in mind for the upcoming Yoko Redux: Dreams of a Blue Planet. 

You just never know what the future might have in store. Just think: right now, somewhere in the world, a person you've never met may directly be connected to your fate – and you theirs – without either of you even knowing it. Sound implausible? Not at all. At least, not in Clockwork Pepper's upcoming adventure A Peculiar Adventure On Bast.

We're wisely told to "follow the science" these days, but this notion will take on a whole different meaning in If Fusion Were That Easy, an upcoming point-and-click adventure from Golden Coin Games that will soon be coming to Kickstarter. 

The good news is, you've just survived a horrific plane crash. The bad news is, you're now lost and alone in the harsh frozen climes of the far north. Welcome to Arctic Awakening, an episodic narrative adventure from GoldFire Studios set to debut on PC and consoles next year. 

We probably all feel a little boxed-in by circumstance sometimes, but nowhere is that more true than for the citizens of Boxville, the titular setting for indie developer Triomatica Games' upcoming adventure that is currently raising funds through Kickstarter.

Dinosaurs aren't extinct, they just moved to the world of video games. At least, so Azure Mountain would have us believe, as the indie Polish developer is working on the next game in their prehistoric "Zid and Zniw Chronicles" series called Zid Journey.

Reliving the same day over and over may not be hell, but it sure is close in Galla's Kulebra and the Souls of Limbo, an upcoming afterlife adventure that is currently seeking crowdfunding on Kickstarter.

At first glance you'd certainly be forgiven for thinking The Frogs was another game in Joe Richardson's series of Renaissance-themed adventures (Four Last Things and its sequels), but while it may look similar, the upcoming point-and-click adventure by indie developer Michael Wells tells a much different story in an entirely different era altogether. 

Usually the term "on rails" refers to a highly linear experience over which the player has little control. But sometimes it's meant far more literally than that, as is the case in Pomeshkin Valentin Igorevich's recently released steampunk adventure, Pnevmo-Capsula: Domiki. 

Looking for work can be an adventure, but usually not the sort they make games about. Fortunately the search for employment promises to be a whole lot more fun than sending out CVs and attending interviews in Sugarpunch Games' upcoming Behind the Beyond, a fantastical point-and-click comic adventure inspired by Hungarian folklore.
