Not our normal fare of point and click adventure, but I really enjoyed
Robobug Blaster. It's a platform based shoot-em-up, with great music and graphics which should keep you diverted for a while (while I find some point and click games) [

Toby Room 1048 is an odd game. It's half platform game, half
point'n'click adventure, well cursor keys and space bar adventure anyway. I'm not even sure of the point (geddit?) of the game, as there's an insurmountable language barrier, but there are things for tobby the little dog to find as he travels around, and I worked out there is a torch to find to light up the dark room. If you can work out anymore I'd love to hear about it [

Intel Crime Scene might have linear gameplay, you do
point'n'click, but the choices are limited, it might have rather too much technobabble for your liking, personally I loved this part, but I'm a g33k at heart, and it might take rather too long to load in places, even my broadband struggled occasionally, but it has lovely graphics and I found it rather absorbing. The "reward" at the end though is not the greatest.
Whatever time-zone you are in I'm posting "
Happy Christmas Escape" a little late, but the beauty of a
point'n'click adventure is that you can enjoy it whatever the theme and whatever the time of year. Anyway this game sees you playing as Santa trapped in a house after entering through the chimney and then inexplicably being unable being to escape the same way you got in. Your task is to find an alternative way of escaping the house [

There might be a bit of a Christmas lull in the flow of new
point'n'click games, but fortunately for us
Bart has risen to the challenge and created a brand new "escape the room" style adventure, "
Bonte Room", for us to play with as we wrap our presents. Yipee! [

Ahhhhhh..... a Christmas
point'n'click adventure, that's what I was looking for, and the sweet world of
The Magic Globe is the exact result I hoping to find. It might be a little easy, it is meant for kids though, but the graphics are great and the music has sleigh bells :o) You play Jacob Greene, who was magically transported into a snow globe he found in his grandparents' attic whilst looking for Christmas decorations. Your task is to find the missing cogs to make the snow globe work again. Sweet. Note you'll need to enter your name and accept the conditions to play, but you don't need to register. Once you've done that the
address here will take you straight to the game [

Hunt down the
Ghosts of Walford in
another point'n'click adventure from the BBC - although for this
Eastenders tie-in there are no weekly releases as there have been for the other cracking games they have been producing recently. If you check out the "death map" in the game though you'll see there's scope for this one to run and run [

I can't believe I was so busy yesterday that I didn't have time to post this, well that's the Christmas season for you, it's not conducive to sitting in front of a computer posting games, not when there is Christmas
beer cheer to be had. Anyway... if you haven't played
The White Chamber already
here it is now (although you really should have seen it
here,
here or
here yesteday if you are a true
point'n'click fan). It's the latest in the
crimson,
viridian,
blue... series, which, if my memory serves correctly, we were expecting to either be pink or tangerine, but it turns out it's
white (although maybe it could be subtitled "escape from the garage"), which is all the colours mixed together (or is it an absense of colour? I forget), but that's unimportant, what is in important is that it has some cracking
point'n'click game play. Enjoy, although be prepared for a long load time, I think their servers are getting hammered at the moment, it's worth the wait though [

Jinx the ghost is back in a
2nd adventure, Halloween costume intact, but this time the
point'n'clickery is entirely Christmas orientated. Just as cute, and just as easy, but kick back with a glass of mulled wine and it's very enjoyable. And while you're at it I'd like one or those presses that converts coal into diamonds for Christmas... [

Your reward for completing
Small Forest Story is a twinkly version of Silent Night, which is kind of cute, but some music through the rest of the game would have been nice. I'd feel bad about giving away the ending of a
point'n'click game, but this one is so easy you'll be there in a couple of minutes anyway. It's all Christmassy though, and it
is the season to be jolly, etc [

In
Reindeer Roundup you play Santa, and you try and hit reindeer with darts fired from a blow-pipe. Fun? For sure. The spirit of Christmas? I'm not so sure... [

A general note to hotel owners: please make it easier to leave your establishments. We've already has to
escape the hotel once, and now we find a
hotel escape on the cards once again. If the health and safety inspector catches you there will be trouble, addressing this issue is in your own best interests. What should be a simple, well sign-posted task, should not be so complex that it becomes a
point'n'click adventure. Thank you for listening [
