I don't normally feature games for download, but
Out Of Order appears to be worth it, as it's quite a big
point'n'click adventure for you to really get your teeth into. Oh, and did I mention it was free. No? Well it is. The game starts with you (and, curiously, your bedroom) being kidnapped, with the rest of the bizarre plot stemming from that. I'm sure you'll work it out. One word of warning, despite the cartoony graphics and wacky music, there are a few mildly adult jokes so don't unleash it on the (young) kids. You should enjoy it though [

There's some confusion over the proper name of this little
point'n'click game, I'm guessing because very few of us speak Slovakian. I've heard it called "Escape The Lonely Island", "Escape The Beach" & "Ostrov", among others, I've settled for "
Ostrov Island". Anyway, whatever it's called, you're definately stuck on an island, and it's a Slovakian island, which makes understanding all the little notes and instructions a little tricky. Unless you're Slovakian, of course [

I'm not even sure how
Prince Of Pension gets it's name as I don't know enough Russian, and by "enough", I mean "any", to work it out for myself. Anyway I assume the name has been correctly translated by some one, and it doesn't stop you enjoying this
point'n'click game (although I suspect it makes it a lot harder). All I've worked out so far is that there are 3 levels of difficulty, dpending upon which character you pick at the begining (they get harder as you go down the page), and it's important to jump over obstacles as you lose a life if you bump into them. Oh, and perhaps most importantly, while you use your mouse for picking objects up, you need to use your cursor keys to move around [

Another slice of
point'n'click quality for you from the
Escape to Obion team with the release of
Episode V in this great series. From what I understand there's no slow down in the rate of production (they were running at one episode a week), but the delay on this has been due to hosting cost issues (no need to tell me about that one), so if you enjoy the series you might want to visit their

The Hills Have Eyes Game is probably not one to share with your kids. Featuring, as it does, shooting attacking mutants. You might even want to skip it if your scared by that sort of thing. Anyway for the rest of us it's time to crank up the volume, turn down the lights, and get your favourite teddy bear to hand for reassuring cuddles...
In the
The Hills Have Eyes Game you try to escape from a mineshaft, shooting the mutants that try to stop (and eat!) you. The game is more
Doom, than
point'n'click, although it's not a million miles away, especially if you've played some of the scary ones. There are a few bonus items to collect, especially useful are the batteries which you can use in your flashlight, if your flashlight batteries run out the mutants get you. Apparently mutants have excellent night vision. Eeeeek!
One further word of warning - the controls involve using the mouse for looking (and shooting), and the cursor keys for movement. If you are playing on a laptop, like me, you might want to leave this one until you are back at your desktop machine, unless finger pain is your bag [

From Heaven To Hell isn't a
point'n'click game for the kids, or the squeamish, as the liberal amounts of blood you find and spooky sound effects suggest (no spooky music though), and when you get towards the end there's a fair amount of violence too. The best thing about this game for me though was the atmosphere. I found myself with baited breath when I opened every door expecting the worst. Unfortunately the worst thing about the game is that it is far too short, but it this only billed as "chapter 1", and I was left wanting to see more [

Tha language barrier on
The Search is just a little bit too high to make this
point'n'click game particularly fun. Can anybody give us a clue as to what is going on? [

Mini Room is not a room filled with
Minis like you might be hoping, well maybe that's just me, but
it is an "escape the room" style
point'n'click adventure in a miniature size. Which is nice. The size makes it a little tricky (What do you know? All that spam I get was telling the truth, size
is important), but as long as you realize that if you click on the the little figure you can make them move again once they've stopped you should be ok (took me a little while to work this out - I thought I'd broken it). Also the text is in Japanese, but you can copy and paste it into your
translation tool of choice which is very handy, although you can pretty much work most of it out without that [

Escape The Classroom has quite a different look and feel to your average
point'n'click adventure as it's all rendered in (very slow to load - be patient) 3D. It's not going to be an easy one though, as although there is an English version of the game, you need some knowledge about the Slovak Republic to complete it. Tricky [

Sorry for the lack of posts just recently, but it's a really really busy time for me at work. Anyway you don't care about my troubles I'm sure...
Bear Room Escape is an "escape the room" style
point'n'click game that features a teddy bear in a room and lots of Japanese (?) that I don't understand. Hopefully you'll work out what on earth is going on... [

I think
Cityscape might be quite an old game, but it's new to me. It's a
point'n'click game that's, sort of, along the lines of
grow in that you have to do all the tasks in exactly the right order to get the optimum score, but with it's city building theme it also reminds me of
Civilization and other world/city building games, albeit with much less groovy graphics [

Warbears is a real
point'n'click challenge. You have to complete tasks in the right order, and if you do the wrong thing at the wrong time, you have to start over, and if that isn't enough there's a bit of combat, and if you fight badly and loose, yup you guessed it, you have to start over. The edge is taken off the fighting though as you are controlling cute litle bears... sorry... I mean destructive little warbears [
