Paranoia and mystery
I really liked this game. it had interesting characters, good voice acting and a good psychological mystery to it. I have a soft spot for a game with a group of characters isolated and one of them being a murderer. If you also find this premise to be appealing, give this gem a try.

Gabriel Knight: Sins of the Fathers
Companions of Xanth
A must-have for any Pratchett fan
This is one of my all-time favorite adventure games. I have finished it twice during my life time and it was a riot both times. It’s a fantasy adventure with a lot of funny characters and puns. The game is also long so it will keep you busy for at least 10 hours.
If you like discworld and Terry Pratchett I strongly recommend you give this a try. The game is actually based on a novel(not by Pratchett), Pratchett is just the best likeness I can think off. 2 Thumbs up!

Art of Murder: FBI Confidential
Worst adventure game I have ever played
Wow, where do I begin? The protagonist is a bimbo that tells unfunny jokes only she laughs at. The voice acting is horrendous and all the characters lack any credibility(especially her “boss” that sounds like a drunkard with Tourettes’ syndrome as much as he swears). The graphics are dull and ugly. The pacing is linear and dull. Some of the puzzles are so stupid and rely on backtracking that they all feel like fillers to make the game longer. There is nothing positive to say about this game. How it has 2 sequels is beyond me, probably because these games take an afternoon to program.
Make yourself a favor and avoid this game at all cost, it will make you bored, angry and leave you unsatisfied.

Memento Mori
Linear and boring
I played this game for around 7 hours and I can’t really say i feel very motivated to continue it. The story is boring, the characters are dull and the linearity is really bad. The opening puzzle at the museum was an example of this, stuck in 4 screens with practically nothing to select and **puzzlespoiler** you have to try and use your cell phone at a specific place to get obvious instructions. I hate those kind of puzzles, when you are smarter than the protagonist in such a manner. No I would avoid this title all-together because it’s yet another game in the uninspired mediocre puzzle-games a la Art of murder.
