Back in 1984, my family got our first home computer – An Amstrad CPC, and it shaped, ultimately, my entire career from then on in as a professional games journalist. Back in the day, besides games like Daley Thompson’s Decathlon, one of my favourite types of games to play were text adventures from classic Infocom […]

We do like to try and showcase some different things here at Adventure Gamers, and while we love a good point and click puzzler as much as everybody, occasionally a game that leans more into he action-adventure realm piques our interest enough to dig a little deeper.

Venture through working men’s club […]

Greece-based Geo Games has just announced a new 3D point-and-click adventure that sees you “step into a murder case that doesn’t want to be solved.” Uncover what happened at Highburn Mansion — before it unravels your mind.

Danger, Will Robinson. If that means anything to you, then you will likely be excited at the news that classic sci-fi series Lost in Space is making its way to Steam and Nintendo Switch as a new point and click adventure, and if you are on PC, there is a demo waiting for you on […]

A new cozy adventure out of Brisbane, Australia, has just arrived on Steam.

Play as Catto, the town’s hardworking (and heartbreakingly adorable) Postcat, and explore a charming seaside town […]

Not many people are fond of flies, but I have a theory that if they didn’t buzz, people would be far less bothered by their presence. Although having said that, I did actually get bitten by a horsefly at an Oasis concert recently and needed a massive dose of antibiotics to stop the infection spreading […]
