A little curiosity
goes a long way.
For the people who examine every object, exhaust every dialogue tree, and keep a rubber chicken. Just in case.
There’s always another story to discover.
Point & Puzzle is an independent home for adventure games. The old favorites. The strange new worlds. The small discoveries you can’t stop thinking about.
From classic inventory puzzles to modern detective stories, this is a place for games that reward paying attention. We like a good mystery, a well-earned laugh, and that little spark when the solution finally clicks.
A few things to guide the way.
The story matters.
A review should help you decide whether a world is worth your time, while leaving its best surprises for you to find.
The puzzle is part of the picture.
Writing, atmosphere, art, sound, and interaction all deserve attention. A number is a useful signpost, but the words tell you where it points.
Curiosity has no expiry date.
A good adventure doesn’t stop being interesting when it stops being new. There’s room here for both fresh discoveries and return visits.
