Not sure if you're aware but it's from an Aussie dev. If you're looking for a list of all Aussie (and NZ) released games this year I have another list for you: https://www.well-played.com.au/every-australian-and-new-zealand-made-game-released-in-2021/

So I reviewed one of the best and certainly more unique adventure games I've played over the past few years. It's called BROK the InvestiGator and it's a point and click, beat em up detective game with a 90s cartoon aesthetic.

how have I never seen this?

how have I never seen this?

my limited understanding is that some of the reasons behind it dropping out of sight are due to some issues revolving around its hefty ip, and unlike some of the other games in this thread, it was unable live on through being put on any sort of abandonware site or digital site despite being long out of print and no longer supported. that may have changed.
story is too that the source code has gone as well, making a remaster tricky.

as i look it's been released on steam in the last few months to mixed reviews.

Not sure if it's been mentioned yet, but this one looks phenomenal

watched the early bits of a playthrough though which gives me a bit of hope if i try again.

Covered this on the website. Very keen to see more of it!

The Longest Journey is one of my all time favourites. If you like the fantasy elements and can get past the old visuals its worth a shot, a lot of conversation though so can see it might be paced a little slow. Abundence of quips similar to our favourite guybrush threepwood

Bladerunner was good as a kid

Somehow I managed to miss that as a kid

A sensational game, the environment really took you to another world, just like the movie.

As far as I know, the source code was lost and they've spent years reverse engineering it. Finally re-released not long ago. But get the standard Blade Runner, not the "remastered".

Played through Procession to Calvary a while back, laughed as hard as I've ever laughed at a game multiple times, definitely recommended, especially given that it's on Gamepass.

Foolish Mortals has a Kickstarter now. Go go go!

Been enjoying a number of these lately. One that hasn't been mentioned is the Blackwell series. Very good and highly recommended. Unavowed from the same developers is pretty good as well.

Another of my favourites is Chicken Police if it counts. Fantastic noir/crime game.

Recently bought Technobabylon, Whispers of a Machine and Shardlight. So will give them a go at some point.

After playing the new Monkey Island with the kids we are now going through Sam & Max

I like adventure games / point and click, but we are Apple only these days and the lack of a PC limits the options I think.

I played Firewatch a year or so ago and I thought it was pretty good:

Firewatch: Out now for Windows, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, Mac, and Linux

Firewatch is a first-person single-player mystery set in the Wyoming wilderness, where your only emotional lifeline is the person on the other end of a handheld radio.

Played Shardlight and Primordia recently. Shardlight was really good, enjoyed it. Although, all Wadjet Eye games are great.

Primordia was ok I guess. Puzzles were a bit on the harder side for me, haha. One right towards the end was a doozy,I have a hard time believing anyone could've figure it out, honestly. There's even a character in the game that solves the puzzle for you if you retrieve an item for him. Says it all, lol.
