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.
Lumino City (2014)
Underneath Lumino City’s architecturally intricate paper-crafted spectacle is a genuinely rewarding adventure game, albeit one with the flimsiest of stories.
The Dream Machine: Chapter 5 (2014)
More than a year in the making, The Dream Machine returns with the meatiest chapter so far, bridging the gap between multiple dreams with brilliantly designed puzzles and continuing the series’ dark plotting.
Shadowgate (2014) (2014)
Zojoi’s Shadowgate remake is everything you loved – and maybe everything you hated – about old-school adventuring. It offers a captivating journey into a fantasy dungeon, but it’s inhabited by puzzles so artificially challenging that this quest is one not everyone will want to undertake.
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 Walking Dead: Season Two - Episode Four: Amid the Ruins (2014)
Amid The Ruins really delivers in setting the stage for the series conclusion, creating both expected and unexpected challenges that strike at the heart of fragile group dynamics.
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 Wolf Among Us: Episode Five - Cry Wolf (2014)
It’s been a crazy up-and-down season, but the conclusion of The Wolf Among Us is a visceral, stylishly violent adventure in Bill Willingham’s brilliant Fabletown at heart, with some great storytelling aptitude to close things out.
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.
realMyst (2000)
realMyst’s Masterpiece Edition offers spectacular enhancements to an already iconic adventure game – even the Myst naysayers should be pleasantly surprised by the new visuals and interface revisions.
Ossuary (2013)
The thought-provoking Ossuary is a game that exercises your brain in more ways than one, with a multitude of diversions to find.
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.
The Wolf Among Us: Episode Three: A Crooked Mile (2014)
Anyone a bit worried after the second episode can welcome the series back with open arms; A Crooked Mile is an intense and violent episode that is fun and over far too quickly.
The Walking Dead: Season Two - Episode Two: A House Divided (2014)
With the introduction of an unnerving antagonist, considerable cast development and a handful of do-or-die choices, A House Divided begins with a slow burn but turns into an inferno come the dramatic cliffhanger ending.
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.
The Walking Dead: Season Two - Episode One: All That Remains (2013)
Telltale start the new Walking Dead season with a bang, delivering a tense and gripping episode that thrusts a familiar face into new desperation and dangers.
Journey of a Roach (2013)
It’s rather short in length and lacks much story substance, but Journey of a Roach is a charming, original adventure that genre fans and newcomers alike will enjoy.
Nancy Drew: The Silent Spy (2013)
No need to break out the gadgets; if you’re looking for a surprisingly personal story and a wealth of codebreaking puzzles, you’ll find them front and center in Nancy’s case of The Silent Spy.
