Have You Played The Foolish Mortals Demo Yet?

Finally, I’ve gotten around to playing the Foolish Mortals demo, and it was worth every minute spent. Alright, so it was a short demo, but if this is in store come 2024, it’ll be worth waiting for this point and click adventure from Inklingwood Studios. Set in the

One of the shortest news posts I may ever do, as this is a no-brainer as far as I’m concerned: Crowns & Pawns: Kingdom of Deceit releases on the Nintendo Switch on the 28th of September 2023. If you haven’t heard anything about Tag of Joy and Thunderful’

There's Nothing Like The Heir Of The Dog (Adventure, That Is)

That line “… is arguably one of the best“, a comfort sentence I often use, is irrelevant when you know that Lucy Dreaming was one of the best point and click adventures released on Steam and the Nintendo Switch. There’s nothing arguable about it. Well, Tall Story Games are back

Exploring Aurora The Lost Medallion: The Cave Demo

Exploring a cave – what, like cave-diving? Nope. Aurora The Lost Medallion: The Cave is a ‘hide and seek’ demo, a game from Noema Games, introducing us to Aurora’s world through a simple point and click adventure. It’s pretty short, but it’s a demo, so give it a

Phoenix Springs Demo Rises To The Point

Who the hell is Leo Dormer? Why he’s Iris’ brother, don’t you know. That’s one of many questions you might ask when you play the Phoenix Springs demo. A potluck download from the Steam Next Fest pool, all I did was look at the screenshots, and that

Scott Whiskers in: the Search for Mr. Fumbleclaw - Just The Pussy You're Looking For

The pitch for Scott Whiskers in: the Search for Mr. Fumbleclaw is totally wasted on me. Our hero is a cat lover and a Star Trek fan. That’s the thing with the space cowboy and teddy bears, right? BUT… it’s a point and click adventure with plenty of

Plot Of The Druid Early Access - Could It Be Magic?

How many point and click games have you played in Early Access? Me? None. I think. When Plot of the Druid hit my inbox, gut instincts were, ‘ok, it’s a point and click. Will have a look’. But after the trailer, it was like, ‘Blaam! Let’s play’. Alas,

Verne: The Shape of Fantasy Dev Commentary Released

Verne: The Shape of Fantasy has appeared in these murky depths a few times and was a title I recommended based on the Steam Next Fest. Well, a new dev commentary has been released ‘in celebration of 2023’s launch’. Rather than regurgitate some filler for the sake of it,

Azazel's Christmas Fable: LOTS Of C Word Usage

Christmas seems to come earlier every year, and while it’s arguably the best holiday season, let’s embrace it nearer the time and not in August, ok? Our local supermarket had decorations in Summer. Azazel’s Christmas Fable was launched on the 29th November, so there’s nothing wrong
