Riddlord: The Consequence By: Amrita Studio I'm just as excited as any puzzle fan to hear of a new game in the style of Fireproof's The Room series. So when I got my hands on Amrita Studio's Riddlord: The Consequence, I couldn't wait to dig in. Things started off great. At first, it seems like it will be just as enjoyable as its inspiration. (NOTE: This article will spoil some puzzles, as…
Hi everyone and welcome back to a very late installment of My Week Unwrapped. Due to Thanksgiving and my trying to work on walkthroughs I started last week, this post will be shorter than usual. Still some great games to talk about, though! And I hope you all enjoyed your own holiday weekend if you celebrate it. There's also lots of great sales still going on for Black Friday and Cyber Monday,…
The Inner World 2 - The Last Wind Monk By: Studio Fizbin & Headup Games I was a few months late to the party with The Inner World, but it ended up being one of my favorite point-and-click adventures ever. With an adorable but quirky protagonist, tons of other entertaining characters, dry wit, hand-drawn cartoon artwork and top-notch voice acting, it was hard not to fall in love. So when I heard…
Agent A: A puzzle in disguise By: Yak & Co. Yak & Co's stylish spy adventure game, Agent A, released back in 2015, but that was only the first two chapters. I was still very impressed with what I saw and couldn't wait for the rest of the game. Last year, we got another chapter, Ruby's Trap, that packed a lot of puzzles into a small space, almost like a room escape…
The Inner World 2 - The Last Wind Monk By: Studio Fizbin & Headup Games Studio Fizbin's The Inner World is one of my favorite point-and-click adventures. I loved the characters, the humor, the voice acting, the artwork, and perhaps above all, its willingness to ridicule organized religion. I started playing the sequel, The Last Wind Monk, a few days ago and am enjoying every second of it. Revisiting Asposia, it feels…
A few days ago, I posted a story about how I overlooked but then rediscovered a website created by Glitch Games to tease their next game. You can read that here if you haven't yet. Details of the new game weren't revealed yet. Instead, a fake company called Veritas Industries that has its foot in every aspect of, well...everything, said it was looking for human subjects for its Insomnium project. I wrongly…
I was browsing my Twitter feed today with my morning coffee and had an odd conversation with Graham Ranson, one half of Glitch Games. He said I might have already seen one of their next games without realizing it. I thought it was strange, but I didn't pry just yet. https://twitter.com/GrahamRanson/status/927883974323601408 I continued about my day, playing some Starman, which I highly recommend, by the way. A short time later, I see…
Hi everyone and welcome to another jam-packed installment of My Week Unwrapped! I've been very busy over the last seven days watching both Stranger Things and 3%. How does one find time for all these great games and TV shows? If you figure out the secret to immortality and/or time travel and/or cloning, please share it with me. Still, I somehow managed to play a lot of games this week even without…
