Kairo (2012)
It leaves you with more questions than answers, but keep an open mind and Kairo will prove be one of the more enticing and captivating worlds you’ll ever explore.
The Journey Down: Chapter One (2012)
Though only teasing the series’ larger story arc for now, The Journey Down‘s HD remake is a short but vibrant indie adventure that far exceeds the quality of many full-blown retail games.
The Journey Down (2017)
While shorter than the last instalment, and the easiest of the three to boot, the final chapter of The Journey Down brings closure to series veterans and, more importantly, makes the entire trilogy required gaming for adventure fans in general.
To the Moon (2011)
To the Moon is a special, emotionally charged story game that will be enjoyed by players who don’t mind a “lite” gameplay experience.
What Makes You Tick: A Stitch in Time (2010)
A Stitch in Time is a gorgeous adventure with clever puzzles that ticks along smoothly to the end.
Pajama Sam in ‘No Need to Hide When It’s Dark Outside’ (1996)
Taking younger children on an exciting journey through the Land of Darkness, Pajama Sam’s first adventure will capture their imagination with humour and fantasy.
Penumbra: Black Plague (2008)
If you’re in the market for a bite-sized chunk of the freshest horror adventure in years, play this game. It’s unusual, smart, and above all, entertaining, if you can embrace the unconventional approach.
Inherit the Earth: Quest for the Orb (1994)
One of the most enjoyable adventures to come out of the mid-1990's, and one of the most charming family adventures ever. Definitely worth the price for the re-released version.
Growbot (2021)
If you’re into style over substance and looking for a fun, low-key adventure, Growbot is the one for you.
Warp Frontier (2021)
It may be a little dense and awkward on occasion, but Warp Frontier boldly flies into some deep, dark places, mostly managing to balance challenging puzzles with personal choices and big ideas.
Imaginaria (2021)
Imaginaria offers an intriguing glimpse into the unremarkable lives of those who remarkably choose to reside in extreme isolation. Gameplay boils down to little more than an interactive educational tour, but as long as you’re fine with a narrative micro-experience rather than a brain-teasing survival adventure, this trip to remote Antarctica is one worth taking.
Impostor Factory (2021)
Looking better than ever but reducing the gameplay elements even further, Impostor Factory manages to weave a supernatural time travel murder mystery starring a whole new character into the series’ existing tapestry, giving the game a unique-yet-familiar flavor.
Scarlet Hood and the Wicked Wood (2021)
A gorgeous visual style, an emotive heroine, and a modern time-looping take on The Wizard of Oz with a dash of Little Red Riding Hood thrown in make Scarlet Hood and the Wicked Wood an endearing fairy tale treat.
Sarawak (2021)
While certain areas of Sarawak are more developed than others, the end result is a well-crafted, beautiful mystery adventure with a uniquely literary feel that’s cleverly enhanced by an inspired interface.
The Hand of Glory (2020)
The frustration of one or two ambiguous puzzles can’t dampen one’s spirits for The Hand of Glory, a love letter to traditional point-and-click adventure games with its own sense of fun and wit.

Oniria Crimes (2020)
Oniria Crimes introduces a welcome variation on mystery adventure conventions in an intriguing, attractive futuristic noir world with a rich backstory to be discovered. While some aspects could be improved, it’s definitely worth a look for players seeking out something different from the usual kind of detective game.
Woven (2019)
Though definitely not aimed at impatient or directionally challenged gamers, Woven’s splendidly fashioned locales, likeable heroes and amusing transformations are tailor-made for a unique experience.
LUNA: The Shadow Dust (2020)
LUNA: The Shadow Dust is an audio-visual delight, with charming hand-drawn animation accompanied by a stellar soundtrack, though its gameplay isn’t very inventive and is ultimately more a case of style over substance.
Sally Face (2019)
It’s sometimes too convoluted for its own good, and its macabre take on certain subjects might turn some players off, but the complete five-part Sally Face is a worthwhile and wholly unique gaming experience that has to be played to be believed.
Sally Face: Episode One – Strange Neighbors (2016)
It’s sometimes too convoluted for its own good, and its macabre take on certain subjects might turn some players off, but the complete five-part Sally Face is a worthwhile and wholly unique gaming experience that has to be played to be believed.
Sally Face: Episode Two – The Wretched (2017)
It’s sometimes too convoluted for its own good, and its macabre take on certain subjects might turn some players off, but the complete five-part Sally Face is a worthwhile and wholly unique gaming experience that has to be played to be believed.
Sally Face: Episode Three – The Bologna Incident (2018)
It’s sometimes too convoluted for its own good, and its macabre take on certain subjects might turn some players off, but the complete five-part Sally Face is a worthwhile and wholly unique gaming experience that has to be played to be believed.
Sally Face: Episode Four – The Trial (2018)
It’s sometimes too convoluted for its own good, and its macabre take on certain subjects might turn some players off, but the complete five-part Sally Face is a worthwhile and wholly unique gaming experience that has to be played to be believed.
Sally Face: Episode Five – Memories and Dreams (2019)
It’s sometimes too convoluted for its own good, and its macabre take on certain subjects might turn some players off, but the complete five-part Sally Face is a worthwhile and wholly unique gaming experience that has to be played to be believed.
Mosaic (2019)

Mosaic will be a worthwhile experience for that certain type of gamer who can appreciate style over substance in the service of an artistic statement. Without much in the way of gameplay, it’s more of an experimental atmospheric experience than a traditional piece of interactive entertainment.
Elsinore (2019)
To play, or not to play? If you like Shakespeare, definitely. But even if you dozed through high school English, the clever premise and time-loop puzzling make Elsinore a world worth exploring.
