Brings what grabs you about Metal Dead: plenty of humour, puzzles to figure out and a strong story.

A loving throwback to classic LucasArts point-and-click adventures, where you swap between five characters to solve a strange murder in an odd small town. Dark humor, meta jokes and interlocking puzzles are its main appeal.

Edna & Harvey: The Breakout

Lots of humour

A classic LucasArts-style point-and-click adventure in which Edna escapes from a psychiatric hospital together with her talking stuffed rabbit Harvey. Dark humor, quirky characters and clever inventory puzzles define the experience.

Pony Island

Puzzles and brain teasers

A devil-run arcade machine turns out to be a meta puzzle-horror adventure that keeps breaking its own rules and toying with your expectations. With dark humor, hacking-style puzzles and clever twists, it is short but memorable.

The Darkside Detective

Lots of humour

A funny pixel-art point-and-click adventure where Detective Francis McQueen solves short, self-contained supernatural cases. Quirky puzzles and pop-culture nods keep it light and charming rather than frustrating.

The Next Big Thing

Lots of humour

A comedic point-and-click adventure in which a journalist and her macho colleague attend a horror movie awards show and discover the film monsters are real. Wacky puzzles and many movie tributes drive the experience.

Sam & Max: Save the World

Distinctive, stylised art style

A gloriously zany point-and-click adventure in which a talking dog and a rabbit, the Freelance Police, solve bizarre cases. The remaster brings back the first episodic season's cartoon humor and puzzles with updated visuals.
