Thimbleweed Park

Computers and IT, Games100% achievements, 2d, adventure, point-n-click, puzzle, single-player

Thimbleweed Park is a point-and-click adventure like from the good old times :)
Like in Maniac Mansion or Day of the Tentacle one plays several nicely crafted characters in different times, yet all in a small town called Thimbleweed Park.
As in the classics, one gets a beautifully written story; lots of easter eggs and jokes; fun, crazy and some difficult puzzles to solve; and great (old school) graphics and sound / voice acting.
It’s been a real treat and I had to try both game modes (hard and casual) right one after the other » highly recommended !!!

There Is No Game: Wrong Dimension

Computers and IT, Games100% achievements, 2d, adventure, kid-friendly, point-n-click, puzzle, single-player

There Is No Game: Wrong Dimension is, using its own words, not a great point-and-click adventure game. It’s certainly not fantastic and not a great homage to old adventure classics, does not have a fun story and nice riddles to solve and was not at all extremely entertaining to play. And you should probably not make sure to give it a go.

p.s. The not-game is based on a game-jam entry called ‘There Is No Game’, which you can play for free here.

Lumino City

Computers and IT, Gamesadventure, kid-friendly, point-n-click, puzzle, single-player

Lumino City is a nicely done puzzle adventure game with scenes built from real cardboard models and some really nice, and here and there quite challenging, puzzles.
This, together with a very nice soundtrack and a nice story, made this game a lot of fun to play.

Carto

Carto is a beautiful puzzle adventure game in which you follow a little girl called Carto on her journey to get back to her grandmother. By discovering and assembling different pieces of her map, the world grows piece by piece as the adventure unfolds.

This was certainly a fun adventure with some nice map-building puzzles to solve.
I can definitely recommend it for some relaxed couch-potato gaming.

Papetura

Papetura is a beautifully made point-and-click adventure game where you follow/guide two little creatures along their journey to save their papery world from pyromanic monsters.
The game is set in some really nice done scenes – who creation process is quite unique (see video on YouTube) and you will have to solve a number of puzzles to lead the protagonists to victory.

A somewhat short, but certainly enjoyable little adventure game!
