England Academy
I'm sure there are a large number of you that don't know what the Six Nations Championship is, maybe you don't even know what rugby is (*shame* on you), but I can still recommend the BBC's England Academy game. There are 6 skill tests so you can train in all the basics of rugby (unfortunately for my French, Italian, Irish, Welsh & Scottish friends you have to play as England for this bit - the rest of you don't have a team in the championship at all!), and then you can pick your own team, and play your own 6 nations. Superb. Not my normal cup of tea, but it's so well done I love it.

Qwizard 2
As you might suspect from the name Qwizard 2 is the sequel to the hugely popular Qwizard. Time to get puzzling again people. Fortunately for folks like me who are still stuck in a world of googling after the first game you don't have to have finished all 100 levels of the first game to embark upon the next 100 [subbed and created by Greg & Lola].

From Heaven To Hell
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 [subbed by brian & ~kj~].

The Search
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? [subbed by mystery].

Mini RoomMini 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 [subbed by anon].

Escape The Classroom
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 [subbed by brian].

The Enigma Puzzle
The Enigma Puzzle shows all the signs of the classic on-line puzzle; changing URLs, viewing source code, viewing image files in different ways etc, which means it'll be an enjoyable challenge. Good luck solving all the puzzles and finding excuses to play while you should be working [subbed by Stephanie].

Bear Room Escape
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... [subbed by winniethepooh].

Kakuro
Nej has sent me a link to on-line Kakuro (think Sudoku, but different, or better still, don't listen to me, read a proper description) and now I'm addicted, swimming in a sea of numbers. Especially because I then went on to find on-line Hitori. I think I need to lie down now.

Cityscape
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 [subbed by adam].

Warbears
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 [subbed by joru, nicop & blazel].
