  • Any recommendations for good adventurish puzzle type PC games?

    Limbo, Inside or Grim Fandango. That type of thing.

    I find it really hard to gauge what game I'd like because I've tried too many top reviewed games which are abysmal.

  • Braid?

  • Portal 1+2?

    The Witness

    Both adventure + puzzle

  • They did release updated Monkey Island versions a few years ago if you fancy some proper nostalgia. Also The Dig, which for my money, is the best point/click adventure game in the Lucas Arts back catalogue.

  • Games that remind me of Limbo:

    • Undertale
    • Oxenfree
    • Braid
    • The Cave
    • Trine
    • Home
    • Little Inferno (not really an "adventure" game per se... more of an idle game with adventure elements? hard to explain)

    I enjoyed all of those except for Undertale, but Undertale gets really phenomenal reviews and I seem to be the only person in the world who didn't really like it, so you might enjoy... or not, given your experience with top-reviewed games!

    Games like Grim Fandango:

    • The Journey Down (this is a 5-part series that is fantastic imo)
    • Later Alligator (advertised as being "kid-friendly" but I found it very smart and well-thought out)
    • Broken Age
    • Full Throttle
    • 2064: Read-Only Memories

    Other games you might enjoy that don't really remind me of either of those two (I've never played Inside so no recs there):

    • Machinarium
    • Botanicula
  • Any recommendations for good adventurish puzzle type PC games?

    Return of the Obra Dinn. Outstanding game. Also the first mystery game that ever presented me with a receipt at the end.
