Labyrinth City: Pierre the Maze Detective

Labyrinth City: Pierre the Maze Detective is a fun little puzzle / hide-and-seek game for in between and great for younger kids too. Fun little story, lots of nice drawings and animations, side stories and hidden treasures in this adventure. Kind of a gamified ‘Where’s Wally’/’Wimmelbuch’ experience that’s certainly fun.

The Cave

The Cave is yet another Double Fine masterpiece created by Ron Gilbert. Even though I had this game since February 2013, I just got it out again to experience some of the alternate storyline and enjoy it once again.

In this extremely beautiful and fun game you have to guide three out of a pool of seven possible different characters through a talking cave. Yes, a talking cave. Nice gameplay, a great story – well seven, well fourteen stories in fact – lot’s of hidden gems, jokes and word plays .. as one is used to for Double Fine games :)

Certainly a recommendation!!!

Pilgrims

Pilgrims is yet another beauty by Amanita Design. In this great little point-and-click adventure game you have to guide an adventurer and some fellow travellers through several quests all set in a mediaeval-looking world. Once again, it’s beautifully drawn and outlined and comes with an interesting user interface as well as various different storylines to end the game.

Certainly a big recommendation for anyone that loves adventure games!!

Chuchel

Chuchel is another fun little point-and-click adventure / puzzle-solving game by Amanita Design. It this treat of a game, you have to help dear little Chuchel – a small I-don’t-know-what-it-is little creature – to retrieve a cherry in a total 30 fun levels/riddles.

As most Amanita Design games, I can only recommend this little beauty, at least for some short-term entertainment in between ;)

Max: The Curse of Brotherhood

Max: The Curse of Brotherhood is a fun puzzle-platform video game where you (Max) have to rescue your little brother Felix (after you have wished him away) from a weird little world full of riddles, monsters and the evil lord Mustacho by manipulating your surroundings using a truly magical marker. It’s been great fun and I can certainly recommend it …
