POINT & PUZZLE

Our site, and what you’ll find here.

We created Point & Puzzle to share our interest in adventure games. We cover classic point-and-click games, detective stories, narrative adventures, and new releases that catch our attention.

Alongside our reviews, the blog is a place for recommendations, retrospectives, and our thoughts on the games we play.

How we review games.

Our own opinions.

We explain what we enjoyed, what didn’t work for us, and who we think a game will appeal to. Our reviews reflect our experience and preferences.

More than a score.

We consider the story, puzzle design, writing, art, sound, and how the game feels to play. The score summarises our view; the review explains it.

Consideration for spoilers.

We aim to give you enough detail to decide whether a game interests you without giving away its story or puzzle solutions. If a discussion needs spoilers, we’ll make that clear.

You can save reviews and blog posts with the bookmark button. They’ll appear in your inventory, stored in the browser you’re using. No reader account is needed.
