Sam & Max: Beyond Time and Space

Lots of humour

The second season of the episodic point-and-click series sends the anarchic dog-and-rabbit detective duo through absurd locations from Easter Island to Hell. Wacky dialogue, offbeat puzzles and irreverent humor take center stage.

Paradigm

Lots of humour

An absurd, surreal point-and-click comedy adventure set in a post-apocalyptic Eastern European country, where you solve puzzles as the mutant hero Paradigm. Its bizarre humor and a candy-vomiting genetically engineered sloth give it its charm.

Deponia Doomsday

Puzzles and brain teasers

A comedic point-and-click adventure in which the bumbling antihero Rufus tries to save Deponia from destruction through time-hopping mishaps and absurd puzzles. Sharp, irreverent writing and hand-drawn junkyard worlds define its style.
