The Land of the Seazogs (2018)
Taking the retro look to a whole new level with its distinctive 2-bit(ish) graphics, The Land of the Seazogs is a fairly fun and challenging little science fiction point-and-click adventure.
Draugen (2019)
Draugen offers plenty of shocks and chills set against a unique, scenic backdrop of rural Norway, but is sadly let down by some jarring dialogue and a confusing conclusion.
Close to the Sun (2019)
Close to the Sun is a decent enough exploratory mystery, but it misses the boat on substantial gameplay or any real horror by settling for cheap thrills over suspense.
103 (2018)
Short but surreal, 103 presents an intriguing exploration of a dreamlike series of corridors that you can practically complete with both hands tied behind your back.
Tick Tock: A Tale for Two (2019)
Though it doesn’t quite disguise the lack of variety in puzzles and locales, Tick Tock: A Tale for Two offers a fairly novel collaborative two-player approach to problem solving.
Rainswept (2019)

Rainswept bites off more than it can chew with its ambitious story of love, murder and loneliness, but within the sometimes confusing narrative strands there’s an involving game with a beautiful soundtrack to discover.
She and the Light Bearer (2019)
Easy and colourful, She and the Light Bearer should appeal mostly to younger children, although the drawn-out nature of the dialog may strain their patience.
Nelson and the Magic Cauldron (2018)
Though it suffers somewhat from a lack of polish, Nelson and the Magic Cauldron is a fun, if not necessarily funny, inventory-filled point-and-click experience.
CINERIS SOMNIA (2018)
CINERIS SOMNIA‘s dated controls and punishingly slow pace often make it a very difficult adventure to enjoy as much its memorable story and atmosphere deserve.
Abha: Light on the Path (2018)
Short and sweet, Abha: Light on the Path is a visual treat, though some more narrative depth would have been highly beneficial.
The Way of Love: Sub Zero (2017)
More than a little buggy, easy to finish, and short on characterization, The Way of Love: Sub Zero is a rather empty-feeling adventure offset just enough by its premise and backdrop to give it a quaint bit of charm.
39 Days to Mars (2018)
Whimsical visuals, charming characters, and a wide assortment of activities are weighed down by clunky controls in the one- or two-player co-op adventure 39 Days to Mars.
My Memory of Us (2018)
My Memory of Us cleverly tackles dark subject matter with a heavy boost from its beautiful production values, but falls short when it comes to offering consistently engaging gameplay.
The Cabinets of Doctor Arcana (2018)
With the right expectations, The Cabinets of Doctor Arcana can provide some solid gothic puzzling fun for several hours, though not much has been done to deviate from the same types of challenges we’ve seen a thousand times before.
A Rite from the Stars (2018)
A Rite from the Stars twinkles with charm and moments of artistic beauty, but fails to fully shine due to a devastating control system and some unrefined gameplay mechanics.
The Spectrum Retreat (2018)
Combining a story-based exploration of a mysterious virtual hotel with an interesting colour-based, Portal-esque puzzler, The Spectrum Retreat doesn’t quite add up to the sum of its disparate parts.
The Lion’s Song (2017)
Well-versed in early 1900s Viennese culture, The Lion’s Song practically plays itself, so the main draw of this four-part interactive anthology is its beautiful sense of time and place.
The Lion’s Song: Episode 1 - Silence (2016)
Well-versed in early 1900s Viennese culture, The Lion’s Song practically plays itself, so the main draw of this four-part interactive anthology is its beautiful sense of time and place.
The Lion’s Song: Episode 2 - Anthology (2016)
Well-versed in early 1900s Viennese culture, The Lion’s Song practically plays itself, so the main draw of this four-part interactive anthology is its beautiful sense of time and place.
Return to Zork (1993)
Return to Zork is a truly unique classic with a vast reservoir of hidden lore to discover, though the graphics have not aged well and its puzzles are arguably the most difficult in point-and-click history. This is not a game that wants to be beaten, it is a game designed to beat you.
Lamplight City (2018)
With stunning visuals, solid sound and music, and nuanced worldbuilding that many adventure games would kill for, it’s unfortunate that Lamplight City is lacking in the one area that distinguishes games over other storytelling media: interactivity.
Dead Secret (2016)
Dead Secret is a short-but-fairly-sweet mystery that manages to be engaging and even a little scary despite being fairly easy for experienced adventure detectives.
