Captain Disaster in: The Dark Side of the Moon
I loved this little game. Graphics are a bit of an eyesore but they fit the mood well, because it’s a meta, fourth wall breaking parody type of game. It’s good fun and made me laugh. Puzzles make some sense and the dev was even kind enough to help me when I got stuck - I thought I had tried something I didn’t. This game is better enjoyed by people familiar with Sierra and Lucasarts games and that can get all the pop references. It exploits the point and click tropes and the bad habits of adventure players brilliantly.

This game is a short little diversion that will be enjoyable to fans of the Point and Click genre. A fully voiced space comedy, you are trapped on a moon with the goal of getting off. In true adventure game fashion, a larger plot emerges.
The real joy of the game is the comedy writing. It is quite reference heavy, but enjoyable nonetheless. A full third of the references are to adventure games, classic adventure games, and AGS, the software used to build the game. Another full third of the references are sci-fi references. The final third of references are to Pink Floyd albums. If you don’t like these things, this game may not be for you.

Lancelot’s Hangover: The Quest for the Holy Booze
This game is a barrel bursting with absolute nonsense. And this is why it’s terrific.
The art style is simplistic but serves the humour very well, the puzzles aren’t hard, until the last chapter where it’s more of a “How much do you remember of the game you’ve played and the locations you’ve visited” luckily the game cuts off branches you don’t need to revisit so it doesn’t become annoying.
It’s a laugh and a half and definitely worth a look.

Do you have a sense for black humor? Then you have to play Lancelot’s Hangover. That seems familiar to me… anyway I would say even if you don’t have a sense for black humor you have to play it because it’s a great sexy adventure game. Everything is alright. I can’t complain. It reminded me a bit of my childhood when I was in the monastery and in the church. At that time there were unfortunately no naked women in the monastery. It also reminds me of Marilyn Manson when he says: I don’t like the drugs but the drugs like me. Lancelot should sing that, the sexy knight with beer (I recommend the Bavarian beer).

Angelo and Deemon: One Hell of a Quest
This game had been on my radar for a long time but bad reviews always put me off. I finally saw it on sale for just over €2 and bought it.
The dialogues are a bit simplistic but there are a couple of funny moments. The game flows well, the in-game help is good (no need to look for walkthroughs) and, thanks to the nice voice acting, the two and a half hours or so are worth the full price of the game.
Although the game is short, there is never the impression of seeing something cut or rushed. Everything is very clean, without bugs. Most of the game follows a sharable logic, except for a couple of points where you have to read the mind of the developers. Points that we can solve thanks to the (aforementioned) in-game help.

Very nice, but somewhat flawed game.
Pros:
-
Artwork. It’s top-notch. Splendid characters on splendid backgrounds. Animation is somewhat simplistic, but nice nonetheless.
-
Voice acting. Very good for an indie game. Even the Ben’s voice matches the original perfectly.
-
Puzzles. Very good. Challenging enough to please a seasoned adventure gamer. Rare find nowadays.
-
Plot. It’s OK. Good pace, nice ideas.
Neutral:
- Writing. Some characters and their stories aren’t consistent enough. Some are plain silly.

Spud!
While it was ahead of its time when released and the gameplay is unique to say the least the story and plot are utterly horrific. That being said I am currently working on speedrunning it for kicks and because I actually gain a small amount of enjoyment from bad games and movies.

This is one of the only things that I remember from my childhood. I was so excited when I found out that it’s on Steam. My dad, my sister and I would play this and Toonstruck all the time and recently I bought Toonstruck on GOG and I just bought this today and have completed the first half in just under 2 hours. I can’t believe I can still remember what to do after about 12 years or more. So good to be able to play again! :-) I also can’t believe this has bad reviews??? 10/10

A Vampyre Story
A starting note that the play time does not reflect game length or completion time as I often leave games running whilst off doing other things.
A Vampyre Story is a fun point and click game that whilst not breaking any moulds of the genre it’s characters and dialogue I thought were witty and memorable and had me laughing out loud a fair few times. It also looks good, but the animations can sometimes ‘stick’ shall we say, although this is not a big issue.
Any fans of P&C’s will not be diasapointed in what this has to offer, although not the most challenging game out there, the puzzles aren’t ludicrously obscure as they can be in some other titles and range from simple to medium difficulty.

I picked this game up when it first came out on disc and I regretted never finishing it. I was thrilled that it showed up on Steam and I’m very happy my memories of the game weren’t just nostalgia, it’s very fun and polished. The tone and puzzles are reminiscent of classic LucasArts games and the art is top notch, even by today’s cartoon game standards.
Some have not liked the voice of Mona, the main protagonist. It is high pitched and I can see how it could annoy folks but I thought it fit and didn’t mind.

Anomaly Hunter - Prologue
Oh man, such fun! I’ve played HOGs for years and consider myself an expert. I really like this new interpretation and storyline of time travel. It was a welcome challenge! I’m not sure why we’re finding anomalies or why the helper is so combative lol, but I can only assume the backstory will be in the finished product. I like the artwork and going through doors to find what you need. BGM was nice and not intrusive. It lets you know which time (past or present) you were in too so that’s helpful. I’d buy this in a heartbeat! Can’t wait until the game is finished!

Seems interesting, although it’s not very clear on what we’re supposed to be doing with these anomalies once we find them. Took me a little while to understand I had to go back in time and put the objects in their original place. The assistant’s are very vague, and don’t really help a lot. Still, once you get how it works, it’s a good game to pass time.
