The Inner World: The Last Wind Monk (2017)
Though still an enjoyable adventure with high production values, The Last Wind Monk marks something of a tonal shift in the series. Part of what made The Inner World so appealing was its charm, and the sequel ends up leaving a little of that behind in favor of a darker story full of challenging puzzles.
Maggie’s Apartment (2017)
The surreal presentation may draw a lot of the attention, but Maggie’s Apartment proves equal parts strange, artistic, and entertaining as you slowly peel back the quirky layers of a mystery that proves deceptively deep.
Tokyo Dark (2017)
Although falling short of its full potential, Tokyo Dark tells an intriguing mystery story and nicely integrates elements of both western and eastern cultures, combining point-and-click adventure-style exploration and simple puzzles with visual novel-length conversations and multiple endings, some more satisfying than others.
The Dream Machine: Chapter 6 (2017)
Each episode of The Dream Machine has offered something unique, and the final installment is no different. Chapter 6 falls just a little short of the high bar set by its predecessors, but at long last it is nice to see this very impressive indie adventure through to the end.
RiME (2017)
A little more story and gameplay variety would have filled out its generous play time better, but there is plenty of reason for both puzzle and platforming fans to enjoy RiME.
Empathy: Path of Whispers (2017)
If you cherish piecing together clever, dramatic plot fragments and don’t mind lots of backtracking while rummaging through dimly-lit locales, then you owe it to yourself to play Empathy: Path of Whispers.
Little Nightmares (2017)
More survival horror than puzzle-platformer, Little Nightmares offers an enthralling atmosphere that’s partially torpedoed by an over-reliance on stealth.
Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc (2014)
Danganronpa may not score highly with its excessive menagerie of gameplay mechanics, but if you’re morbidly curious and want to indulge your darker side, this unique visual novel adventure gets a solid passing grade.
Sandra and Woo in the Cursed Adventure (2017)
Sandra and Woo in the Cursed Adventure may have you cursing some of its puzzles, but its warmth, characters and gentle humour will surely leave you smiling.
The Frostrune (2017)
The Frostrune is an enjoyable adventure game for both experienced and inexperienced players, with challenging puzzles and an atmospheric setting from a rarely-explored culture.
Corpse Party (2011)
There’s a reason why Corpse Party is seeing a rerelease at twenty years old: the game’s dedicated fan base has made it an enduring classic. While it is a unique experience even amongst visual novel adventures, players should be aware that its retro elements extend beyond its sprite-based visuals.
Little Briar Rose (2016)
With an art style as beautiful as the princess you’re aiming to save, Little Briar Rose is a fun but familiar jaunt through a comfortable, old fairy tale.
Milkmaid of the Milky Way (2017)
While its rhyming gimmick and simple design will be hit-or-miss for some, those who take the plunge into Milkmaid of the Milky Way will get a quirky, enjoyable game worth the low-risk time investment it requires.
Yesterday Origins (2016)
A disappointing present-day storyline infringes upon the dark historical tale of Yesterday Origins, but outstanding production quality, nonstop quests, and a few spirited acts go a long way towards saving the day.
The Little Acre (2016)
The Little Acre is a great debut effort with impressive production values for an indie studio, but sadly it’s over far too soon.
Barrow Hill: The Dark Path (2016)
Barrow Hill: The Dark Path is a competent throwback to old-school horror-themed point-and-click games. It doesn’t break any new ground, but it does its forebears proud.
Demetrios: The BIG Cynical Adventure (2016)
Some may find Demetrios‘s outlook offputting, but if you like your humour on the snarky side you’ll find a surprisingly substantial adventure here.
Quadrilateral Cowboy (2016)
This is such a unique and fun game, but with only nine missions, no story thread, and the stronger missions being in the early stages, it could have been much more—and still may be.
Pan-Pan (2016)
While the story is anything but deep, underneath Pan-Pan’s pretty face beats the heart of a solid puzzle-adventure that provides a couple hours of light-hearted entertainment.
