DayMare Town

Having clearly learnt the art of never sleeping, and staying up 24 hours a day to design quality point'n'click games, it's no wonder Murtaugh finds himself stuck in DayMare Town (I'm assuming a DayMare is very much like a Nightmare, but, er, during the day), as he must be ultra tired. Anyway, DayMare Town, the latest slice of point'n'click excellent, comes hot on the heels of Covert Front Chapter 1 and the Submachine Series, and I have itchy point'n'click fingers just thinking about it, so I'm off to play now...

You've played Submachine, You've played Covert Front, now it's time for something completely new and unforeseen.

DayMare Town

Sketchy outline-only drawings give a stranger look to the game-play and create a bit of minimal atmosphere. Add creepy sounds and twisted story and you get the picture.

DMT is the hardest puzzle game I've made so far. It's really nasty, so be warned. It's for advanced pnc gamers. There is no cliffhanger at the end, but just try to get to that end.

[subbed and created by Murtaugh].

Yawning head...

stand on your head with a spoon balanced on your nose. The yawning head will sing spice girls. No purpose to the head... as far as I can tell

This game is so odd. But it's really interesting and totally different. What a change from all those 'escape the room' type games. And what a game to be playing at 4:30 in the morning!
