Spec me a point & click game

Rusko187 · 17 Apr 2015 at 10:07

I could do with some help on this, I have a spare £10 in my Steam Wallet and I'm a huge fan of point and click games. I've got Monkey Island 1 & 2 + Broken Sword 1 & 2 but I'm really looking for something new and fresh to play of this genre.

Is anyone aware of any decent point and click games to consider?

Never heard of them, like I said willing to give anything a go. Should also note I have both Walking Dead Season games too which are brilliant.

Just seen something on Steam, The Daedalic Armaegeddon Bundle for £12.99. They appear to be point and click games with a solid write up.

While not technically point and click, I'd give Grim Fandango Remastered a try if you never played it. £11 on steam and worth every penny.

LOVED this game when it came out, I read somewhere it hasn't aged very well at all and had put me off. To be honest if it's still very much playable by todays standards this might be the investment.

Depends if you mind indie stuff, but you could pick up two decent adventures here for just over £5: http://store.steampowered.com/app/288930/
The Richard & Alice and Charnel House Trilogy bundle.

Open to indie games, I've got a few indie games in the past and to be honest I find them better than some big game releases. I shall add these to the list!

Keep the suggestions coming guys, can't get enough of point and clicks

You need the Curse of Monkey Island, pity it isn't on Steam

I really do, I've been desperate to pick this game up. Is it on sale anywhere?

Daedelic bundle is your answer. I enjoyed Edna & Harvey: new eyes, not played the others, but the Deponia games are well regarded.

The classics are always worth a look; Beneath a sterel sky is great and went freeware some years ago. And Grim Fandango, obviously- probably the best of them all

I think your right, looking at them it's really Deponia that I'm interested in playing on the bundle... a few of the others I weren't too keen on but to have all 3 games at £12.99 is just too much of a deal.

I would expect it to appear on GOG in the next 6 months - they've been adding the old LucasArts games since Disney bought up the rights.

I played it through, for the first time, about 18 months ago, as I picked up a disc copy. It's great

I had the disc of it somewhere but alas this was on release and have moved house a few times since than.. I fear it is lost in the abyss! Hence digital download is always my preference.

Thanks for all the suggestions guys, I will definitely check these out. I'm avoiding the Game of Thrones game until I've caught up with the TV series.

Must admit Day of the Tentacle is one I've had my eye on, might just have to invest in this too.
