The Adventures of The Black Hawk uses charmingly detailed pixel art, buoyant music, and inventory-based conundrums to immerse the player in an entertaining tale. The combat system is challenging but fair. Together, these elements offer players an almost irresistible invitation to experience this classic-style adventure.
Detective Hayseed - The Cloning Madness (2023)
Detective Hayseed – The Cloning Madness features an engrossing, often comical story brought to life by vibrant, well-executed graphics, lively music, and comedic voice acting.
Enypnion Redreamed (2023)
Enypnion Redreamed, a brainteasing adventure, uses creative, surreal visuals and sound to bring dreams to life.
Dead Drop – A Carol Reed Mystery (2024)
Dead Drop – A Carol Reed Mystery is equal parts a very satisfying way to experience an emotional - if sometimes unevenly told - story, and a photographic visual feast that is a work of art in itself.
Agatha Christie – Murder on the Orient Express (2023)
Agatha Christie – Murder on the Orient Express is a shockingly superb reimagining of a beloved book, with a few twists that even veteran Poirot fans will want to stick to by the end of the 15 hours of play. The experience gets somewhat bogged down by challenging puzzles at the end, and the mind map and profiling would have benefited from a few additions and clarifications. Still, this is an easy recommendation if you are a mystery enthusiast or an Agatha Christie fan.
Midnight Girl (2023)
Midnight Girl is a one-of-a-kind interactive crime caper enhanced by colorful, stylized visuals. An inadequate save system is the game’s only downside.
Blue Wednesday (2023)
Blue Wednesday’s sturdy interface ties together beguiling graphics, outstanding jazz, and challenges that will realistically ground adventure gamers within an intimate, relatable narrative.

Verne: The Shape of Fantasy (2023)
Verne: The Shape of Fantasy is an incredible tribute to Jules Verne, crafting an enriching narrative with creative nods to the author’s work, set in a unique and visually appealing version of our world. While the gameplay can be somewhat elementary, and the story is occasionally too concise, it deftly entices you to keep going and discover how the plot will unfold.

Dordogne has a heartwarming story and stunning visuals. However, the mini-games may pose a challenge for players with tardy reflexes.

Marlon’s Mystery: The Dark Side of Crime is a captivating cozy mystery that delves into the aftermath of injustice and exploitation.
Firmament (2023)

Sherlock Holmes: The Awakened (2023) (2023
)
Sherlock Holmes The Awakened (2023) is a phenomenal remake and addition to Frogwares’ long list of adventures, leaning more towards the supernatural but still fitting snuggly into the Arthur Conan Doyle-style of the mystery genre. While there are minor issues with presentation and gameplay, those who are Sherlock Holmes fans (or H.P. Lovecraft fans) should definitely experience this—even those who have played the 2006 original or the 2008 remaster.
Like No Other (2022)
Like No Other: The Legend Of The Twin Books delights players with its stunning hand-drawn art and engaging puzzles, showcasing a world full of untapped narrative potential. Further exploration of its story and characters could make it an even more memorable gaming experience for fans of point-and-click adventures.
