Deponia Doomsday (2016)
Series fans will definitely want to catch a ride on the Rufus Time Travel Express, as the countdown to disaster in Deponia Doomsday packs a grin-inducing, mind-boggling, oft-repeated wallop.
Fran Bow (2015)
Fran Bow is a wonderfully dark and surreal adventure that is definitely worth the price of voluntary admission.
The Talos Principle: Road to Gehenna (2015)
Road to Gehenna is a worthy extension of The Talos Principle, adding more of the brilliant puzzles and clever storytelling that helped the original stand out from the pack.
Technobabylon (2015)
Technobabylon is a beautiful, compelling game that fans of the cyberpunk genre will devour, as long as you don’t mind a bit of story confusion along the way.
Munin (2014)
Munin may not be trying to reinvent the wheel, but it’s a solid Norse mythology puzzler set amid beautiful landscapes and may be just the thing if you like challenges you can sink your teeth into.
The Book of Unwritten Tales 2 (2015)
An epic tale that reunites some much-loved characters and recreates the magic of good, old-fashioned point-and-click adventuring in a hyper-attractive world, the Book of Unwritten Tales 2 is a must-play for fans of the genre.
The Talos Principle (2014)
Bursting at the seams with challenging puzzles and thought-provoking science fiction, The Talos Principle is a philosophically-minded first-person puzzler that’s well worth your time.
A Golden Wake (2014)
Emotionally resonant and carefully crafted, A Golden Wake mostly succeeds in living up to its ambitious premise and ultimately leaves a memorable impression.
J.U.L.I.A. Among the Stars (2014)
More a slick refinement than a radically different game, J.U.L.I.A. Among the Stars largely took what it got right in the already enjoyable original version and improved upon it, then added some welcome new content on top.
The Journey Down: Chapter Two (2014)
If you’ve played the first chapter of The Journey Down, you’ll know pretty much what to expect. But when everything worked as well as it did originally, that continues to be a good thing.
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.
The Last Door: Season One (2014)
The Last Door is a great retro atmospheric horror game that will make you want to keep opening up its mysteries until you reach the end.
The Last Door: Season One - Pilot Episode: The Letter (2013)
The Last Door is a great retro atmospheric horror game that will make you want to keep opening up its mysteries until you reach the end.
The Last Door: Season One - Episode Two: Memories (2013)
The Last Door is a great retro atmospheric horror game that will make you want to keep opening up its mysteries until you reach the end.
The Last Door: Season One - Episode Three: The Four Witnesses (2014)
The Last Door is a great retro atmospheric horror game that will make you want to keep opening up its mysteries until you reach the end.
The Last Door: Season One - Episode Four: Ancient Shadows (2014)
The Last Door is a great retro atmospheric horror game that will make you want to keep opening up its mysteries until you reach the end.
The Fall: Part 1 (2014)
The Fall is a short but excellent first chapter of a planned trilogy. Even as it neatly wraps up its own story, it leaves enough questions unanswered (and raises some new ones) to create anticipation for the follow-up.
The Fall (0)
On a surface level, Part 2: Unbound continues where The Fall‘s last installment left off, but several changes have been made to both story and gameplay formulas, for better and for worse, including an overreliance on combat that may not appeal as strongly to hardcore adventure gamers.
Broken Sword 5: The Serpent’s Curse (2014)
Eminently playable, cheekily characterised and delectably artistic, The Serpent’s Curse rekindles the romance of the much-loved Broken Sword series.
Detective Grimoire: Secret of the Swamp (2014)
Detective Grimoire breathes some new life into the investigation/visual novel sub-genre with its compelling setting, characters and humour, undermined only by puzzles that are nowhere as enjoyable as the rest of the game.
Goodbye Deponia (2013)
The Deponia trilogy turns out to be very good at goodbyes. If you enjoy LucasArts-style comedic games, this series – and especially the final game – will provide hours of tongue-in-cheek unconventionality.
Lilly Looking Through (2013)
Lilly Looking Through is an easy-to-love game with a top-notch presentation that unfortunately comes to an end all too soon.
The Inner World (2013)
While The Inner World certainly doesn’t push the envelope, neither does it cut any corners in delivering top-notch fun for the family.
Amnesia: A Machine for Pigs (2013)
More of a side story than a full sequel, A Machine for Pigs is memorably dark, disturbing, and bizarre.
The Raven: Legacy of a Master Thief - Chapter One: The Eye of the Sphinx (2013)
The first episode of The Raven offers up a captivating story, intriguing characters and brilliant audio production to get the three-part series on track right away.
The Raven: Legacy of a Master Thief (2013)
A Murder of Ravens ends the story on a cheap note and doesn’t quite live up to the promise laid out in the opening, but it’s certainly more fun than the preceding chapter.
ASA: A Space Adventure (2013)
With a captivating backstory and engaging, challenging puzzles, ASA: A Space Adventure is a welcome addition to the pantheon of Myst-style puzzle-adventure games.
