I've been on something of a point-and-click adventure game kick recently, and let me tell ya it's opened up my eyes to a whole new side of gaming I didn't have a ton of experience in. Focusing on great writing and fantastic stories, they of...

How many monster-rock-opera games have you played this year? I'm guessing zero. That's roughly how many I had played until I got my hands on Wailing Heights, the new musical adventure from Outsider Games. I can help you fix your proble...

Growing up, I didn't really play a whole lot of adventure or point and click games. For starters, I didn't have a PC and there wasn't a ton really available for consoles. And compared to stuff like Sonic the Hedgehog or NBA Jam, adventure g...

Can you feel it? The watchful eye of Big Brother sees all. It knows where you hid all of your minion memes, and saw you watching that Fortnite streamer when you thought no one would see you. It knows everything, and now you can too for the ...
