Below you'll find an overview of Adventure Games that have received a very high rating based on our reviews, the list is sorted based on highest rated Adventure Game first combined with recency of the review we've done.
Reperfection: Volume 1 (2012)
Reperfection is unlike anything you’ve played before and Volume 1 shows promise, but its highly streamlined gameplay and short length will make it too shallow for some.
Twilight Phenomena: The Lodgers of House 13 (2012)
Twilight Phenomena provides a reliably fun casual adventure with gorgeous visuals and a lot of exploration; just don’t sign up for a compelling story or innovative puzzles.
The Odyssey HD (2012)
Despite its drawbacks in puzzle clarity and localisation, The Odyssey HD stays on course with its story, quests, characters and art, offering about five hours of entertaining, old-school adventuring.
Gothic Fiction: Dark Saga (2012)
There are numerous beautiful scenes to look at and explore, but Gothic Fiction is overrun by easy puzzles and visual stimuli that never let the game really take root.
CYPHER: Cyberpunk Text Adventure (2012)
CYPHER‘s attempt to modernize the classic text adventure has a lot of interesting ideas, but the lack of polish on the text itself keeps the game from living up to its potential.
Doc Apocalypse (2012)
It’s not without its rough edges, but Doc Apocalypse is an intriguing, original title that’s well worth your time if you’re looking for a budget sci-fi indie adventure.
Nancy Drew: Tomb of the Lost Queen (2012)
Mystery fans will enjoy unraveling Tomb of the Lost Queen‘s puzzle-filled expedition in the desert, though the lack of dynamism and interaction cause the atmosphere to noticeably atrophy.
Pahelika: Revelations (2011)
Far more hardcore than most casual games, Pahelika: Revelations is enjoyable as a collection of puzzles in a fantasy setting, but the story is needlessly hard to follow and ultimately forgettable.
Jurassic Park: The Game (2011)
Some genuinely clever ideas and intense moments in Jurassic Park are held back by an engine that is rapidly approaching fossilization.
The Fall Trilogy: Chapter 3 - Revelation (2011)
As the series finale, Revelation’s ending is a bit of a let down, but it still offers some decent puzzles and a fun setting to explore.
Nancy Drew: The Captive Curse (2011)
While fans of the Brothers Grimm may at first be intrigued by the premise of this fairy tale Nancy Drew, The Captive Curse is too limited to do the folklore books any real justice.
Adam’s Venture: Episode 2 - Solomon’s Secret (2011)
Solomon’s Secret takes strides to improve on the initial instalment with technical enhancements and varied puzzle design, but its weak storyline continues to hold it back.
Conspiracies II: Lethal Networks (2011)
Lethal Networks is a lengthy, often entertaining indie FMV adventure that is better than its predecessor in some areas, but a little too rough around the edges to fully recommend.
Goin’ Downtown (2011)
If you’re looking to cruise through a fast-paced, lightweight sci-fi adventure, you’ll enjoy feeling the wind in your hair as you’re Goin’ Downtown.
Baron Wittard: Nemesis of Ragnarok (2011)
If you can get past the lackluster gameplay in this failed Utopia, Baron Wittard’s solitary exploration and haunting atmosphere are still worth a visit.
DARKSTAR: The Interactive Movie (2010)
The highly ambitious DARKSTAR delivers a great sci-fi story that’s unfortunately hampered by serious interface flaws, questionable design decisions, and occasional bad acting.
Doctor Who: The Adventure Games - Episode Four: Shadows of the Vashta Nerada (2010)
It’s one of the better episodes of the series thanks to its unsettling atmosphere and different gameplay styles, but Shadows of the Vashta Nerada drags at times and misses the mark entirely with its plot conclusion.
Nancy Drew: Shadow at the Water’s Edge (2010)
While not the best of the series, Shadow at the Water’s Edge is still a solid Nancy Drew entry that takes decent advantage of its exotic location.
Royal Trouble (2010)
If you’re interested in a light romantic comedy that doesn’t delve too deeply into human relationships but provides a few casual hours of fun interaction, Royal Trouble is for you.
Axel & Pixel (2009)
It lacks the originality of Samorost and never really excels beyond its artwork, but Axel & Pixel is a pleasant reproduction of an enjoyable game style.
