Thanks for including Intruder in Antiquonia!! Also, what a wonderful list of gems. I was missing a few that are now in my radar, so thanks for that as well!
This was great! Thanks for taking time to prepare this. And your game keeps looking better and better each passing video, im envious since my project still lies on its back and gazing to the stars.
Nice assessment, and a good offering of games in development! My recommendation to anyone reading is to care very little about established trends (whether that be big story issues or cupboard animations), think about what they truly want to accomplish, and more than that even--yeah definitely more than that--remember why they're making a game, and what joy (or vision) to communicate--and enjoy in the process! Thank you a million times over Adam, for doing these videos as well as creating a much-needed Discord server.
Wow, haven't seen that video until now, didn't know (or forgot :D) that I was in this video. Thanks a lot for including me in there, even if it's not really point&click game.
I was a teenager in the 90's. I miss old school Lucas Arts. They had more than just Star Wars. And the Star Wars games were excellent. Like Dark Forces and TIE Fighter.
Born in 81, I was just in the right age to fall in love with p&c adventure games. The very first of these type of games that I ever played, was no other than "Monkey Island 2 Lechuck’s Revenge" and man! I instantly fell in love with those type of games, so I had to get "The Secret of Monkey Island", and right about that time, "Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis" came out here in Finland, and that really hit the final nail to it! I couldn't get enough of LucasArts games! I had them all! Maniac Mansion, Indy and the Crusade, even Loom! Then later I get to play Sierra's pride and joy "Gabriel Knight - Sins of the Fathers" and the second one (wasn't so great) but much later when "Blood of the Sacred" came out, I had to admit, that even some of the never "3d" p&c games were good. Actually "Gabriel Knight 3" still is one of my all time favorite game! These are GAMES!!!
Nice selection. I backed a few of these and look forward to their release! Favorites: Not Another Weekend (released) Dexter Stardust (Episode 0-4 released, short demo available), Watch Over Christmas, Lucy Dreaming.
So much creativity and artistry happening in those upcoming titles! Thanks for sharing! And as you say, some of us are viewing from the future, so I'm noticing many have already been released! :)
This puts me to shame. I'm really on top of point and click adventures, and I am watching the development of at least 2-3 dozen of them that aren't on this list BUT you still managed to make a list of games where I have not heard of the majority of them. I do own/have played most of the ones which are out, have backed about 6 others over on Kickstarter, and recently beta tested for Watch Over Christmas (which is really good and should be at the top of everyone's holiday wishlist this year). But I was in the dark on most of the others, thanks for putting this video together!
Call me uninformed, but I really didn't realize that people were still making point-and-click games anymore. Those are what I grew up on and loved, but I kind of thought they died in the '90s and early 2000s. Then I started getting into voice over work, and realized they still are alive!
Glad you're looking forward to Born Punk. A slight correction though, the developer is Insert Disk 22. Indrek is one of the pixel artists for the game. 😊
I see It's been more than a year since you made this video, but I liked it a lot. I grew up playing these kind of games so thank you for sharing more options, also, your game seems quite intriguing, I wonder how's its progress going. Anyways, take care, I wish you lots of success with your game, I can see there's a lot of love put into it.
All this talk of Indie Point N Click games reminds me of "Out of Order", a great story, funny, great puzzles and an amazing soundtrack. It's abandonware now and you can download it for free with a quick google search. It would be awesome if you did a review of it.
I know I’m late but can anyone help me? There was this old Click and Point game that I can’t seem to find anywhere, nor do I remember the name. It was about a female (explorer, journalist or archeologist) with her partner who I remember their name being Derek (he had blonde hair and glasses and I think he was a cameraman?) who on an archeological site get separated. The female was kidnapped by mercenaries/bounty hunters and the guy was traded off to some tribe where he was tortured. (Don’t ask me, found this game when I was a kid) I remember there being another guy who was an explorer and would help the girl later. Like I said, I can’t remember the name and I have been looking for it for years. It also had multiple parts or game sequels I guess? If anyone knows anything, plz let me know.
I think I found the game you are looking for. It’s called Broken Sword: The Shadow of the Templars. It’s a point-and-click adventure game from 1996 that has several sequels. It’s about a female journalist and an American tourist who get involved in a conspiracy involving the Knights Templar. The journalist is kidnapped by a man who works for the Templars, and the tourist is rescued by an explorer who helps him find her. I hope this helps!
@@joaquingalasso Thank u very much! But unfortunately, i don’t think it’s the right one. I remember seeing on an Urban Game website (had a logo of an island and and a Hawaiian dancer) and it was a bit more graphic and brutal than what ur describing. I remember finding it in the early 2000s
It's much easier to animate that way. Proper animation takes time which many of indie developers don't have. Developing a game as a side project while having a day job and a family is bloody tough.
You can now wishlist my game on Steam! steampowered.com/app/2967630
Thanks so much for including our game! :D It's an honour to be featured among such amazing games!!
Some great indies here! Many thanks for featuring our titles also

cool summary. I played some of the finished games already but found a lot of good recommendations, thanks a lot! :)

Amazing stuff and great progress.
Great effect at 9:46...
Such great talent in all these projects! Thanks for sharing them

Wow! Great video! I try to do a lot of research about adventure games, but still I had no idea about half of those upcoming titles.
Awesome video and great games! Looking forward to them. Also, thanks for pronouncing my name right!!!! 🙌

I can't believe you didn't include "Slice of Sea" when it released the day after you uploaded this.
I can't find any information on "Rose Cottage anywhere
Thanks for the shout out, Ads!
The link to the game Rose Cottage isn't in the description (9:35) please help :(
This game is still in early development, and doesn’t have much web presence yet, sorry!

Very much so!
Where did you find more info about Rose Cottage? I keep searching but cannot find anything
In our discord!
Glad you're looking forward to Born Punk.

These are all looking great!
Discworld 1 and 2 are of the greatest ever.
im really excited for "children of silentown"
Has Rose Cottage been released since?
Subscribe! Found this video, very good! Like to see more. Also, your own game seems very good too, I'd like to buy that when it's done.
Uhm you forgot about Syberia the world before!
So many games to look forward to! :D
indies are GOATED ppl i dont care what everyone says i mean single GUY????????? salute to all indies out there
How could you forget to mention 'Slender Threads' and 'INCANTAMENTUM'. These are upcoming games from popular studios.
Broken sword 6 when?
It's just been announced!
@@pcd after all these years of waiting, Finally! 🗡️
fnaf laughing at you cause its a point and click
Annoyingly, they're all 3rd person adventures.
Too many games using that horrible flash/mobile animation style. Really offputting.
It's much easier to animate that way. Proper animation takes time which many of indie developers don't have. Developing a game as a side project while having a day job and a family is bloody tough.
@@isatche I know it's easier. I know it's cheaper.
It's also ugly.
I love mobile games, but there’s something about desktop gaming that’s just so unique.
give me the games
nice and easy
Lost me with #28.
