I’ve gotten into point-and-click adventure games lately and I want to know your favorites. (Also please tell me about any good ones that’ve come out RECENTLY.)
LOOM and The Dig are cool. The Drifter is meant to be good for recent stuff
I like Maniac Mansion (nes version) and its sequel.
All of the LucasArts games from Monkey Island and forward are easy recommendations and top tier, with my favorite probably being Day of the Tentacle. The ones before that are varying degrees of fine, but perhaps a bit primitive and they hadn't quite perfected the formula yet.I never got into the Sierra games like Space Quest and LSL much. I tried but I found them frustrating with the possibility of dying, and they were nowhere near as appealing and well-designed as the LucasArts ones.
>let's make a point and click adventure game>let's remove items, inventories, 99% of puzzles and anything that isn't just dialogue, failure conditions and interacting with almost everything that isn't directly related to advancing the game>but we'll have a couple "puzzles" in there that are just moments where you're expected to click on something in a seconds long time limitIt came bundled with their previous game and despite being 60% platformer that one was still more of an actual point and click than this mess

I loved point and click adventures back in the 90s but I believe disco-likes are the obvious evolution of the genre. Less moon logic and puzzles and more choices and numbers going up. What's not to like?
>>735035195Moon logic is a meme from people who don't play the genre but feel the need to parrot the same old shit about 30 year old games all the same
