Last Half of Darkness: Tomb of Zojir
Do you fancy trying a really spooky game, with a gripping story and some great puzzles that test you without being too tough? Then this is the game for you. Tomb of Zojir is the latest installment in the excellent LHOD series. The eerie atmosphere and haunting graphics are sure to entrance you. Check out a trailer and some screenshots HERE.
Chris Tolworthy's epic Enter The Story project continues apace with Dante Alighieri's medieval masterpiece. As with the first entry in the series, his lovingly created adaptation of Les Miserables, it's faithful to the original work, whilst at the same taking another step toward achieving Chris' goal of making classic novels both more accessible and entertaining.
Jane Jensen is back! Adventure game fans are champing at the bit with eager anticipation because very soon, and a full TEN years since the conclusion of her much-loved Gabriel Knight series, Jane Jensen's (blog HERE), newest Adventure will be released for our delectation. The suspenseful and mysterious storyline that revolves around Dread Hill House does not look to disappoint and, together with the stunning graphics and haunting soundtrack, Jane Jensen fans, and Adventure fans as a whole, should be in for a real treat. A mouth-watering trailer and yet more eye-popping screenshots can be seen HERE. An expected release date for Gray Matter is Q1 of 2010. We can't wait for the fun to start!
"I've had some bad days since I started work as a private investigator. But I've never woken up dead before" . . Lewton's words sum up the dark sense of humour you'll need if you're to make the very most of this outstandingly clever Adventure. Unlike its forerunners, Discworld and Discworld 2, Discworld Noir is nowhere near as tough a nut to crack. In this original story from master storyteller and expert leg-puller Terry Pratchett, you'll play as Lewton P.I. (played by my Welsh compatriot Rob Brydon), charged by femme fatale Carlotta von Uberwald with solving one of Ankh-Morpork’s toughest cases. Watch, especially, for an ingenious plot twist about half way through the game, and enjoy the numerous parodies and outright quotes from film noir classics such as The Maltese Falcon and Casablanca.
You loved Samorost? Then you'll certainly love Tomas Kaleta's Alchemia. A product of Springtail Studios, Alchemia was released as a free online Adventure last September. It's puzzles are clever, and Julian Winter's soundtrack is captivating, with the latter also available as a free download. An extended version of Alchemia is promised, possibly requiring a token payment of U.S. $7.
Made way back in 2003, and recipient of numerous glowing recommendations, Hungry Software's comedy sci-fi Adventure can still be downloaded (for free), from it's own website right HERE. It's a whacky, 2D Adventure that starts off with a bang, and offers up a good few hours of rib-tickling, brain-teasing entertainment. Recommended
fun for everyone!

. . is an incredible interactive fiction piece that plays more like a short story than most. To describe it would only serve to spoil the experience for the prospective player. That it's clever is an understatement. Suffice to say that it has significant emotional impact and will leave the player thoughtful, if not stunned. A Glulx interpreter is required to play, and comes with the free download. Check out the Mad For Text! pages of this website for further information. Also, Here.

Dicky Mint was a sailor. A sailor with a very, very big nose. His name was Dicky Mint because once upon a time he got his dicky bow stuck in a bowl of very very sticky mint ice cream. Spyglass Guides has some great information on this game.
