Hunting vigorously through the lazylaces archives for "point'n'click" unearthed the following results...
El Complo is a
point'n'click game along the same lines as the '
Grow' series. Place all the little objects and people in the right order, and watch the ending unfold, but as always getting it wrong can be just as much fun as getting it right. Well almost as much fun. Ok. I admit it. I haven't got it right yet [

Solve the murder mystery in
The Big Scan, with a little
point'n'click and a lot of reading. Even if you don't solve the crime your ability to scan text will increase. Hmmm... educational [

Is
Alpha Moon a new
point'n'click adventure? Maybe if you take enough drugs (*) it is, but for the rest of us it's, an all too short,
point'n'click trip, from the makers of
Ink Quest [

Goldburger is a
point'n'click game in the style of
Hapland. Well sort of... It's a lot easier, still fun though, but the concept is very similar. Get everything lined up 'just so' to complete the game, which in this case means delivering a delicious burger [

I don't know why I haven't got round to posting
Click Drag Type before, maybe it's because I'm lazy and it just sounds like so much effort. I mean, Click, Drag
and Type? That's one more thing than
point'n'click! Anyway, the aim of the game is to solve the puzzles by, guess what, clicking, dragging and typing. And it's not actually too much effort when you try it [

There's some really creepy
point'n'click weirdness in
Siren 2. This is definitely one to play alone, late at night, with the sound up, in an abandoned mansion, after your car has "broken down", and the children from the village have been mysteriously disappearing, and old man Caruthers, the fairground owner, has been seen out late at night carrying an axe...*ahem*...
anyway... What text there is in the game (documents you find, and what have you), is in Japanese, but that's probably a good thing, as I'm sure it would only make the thing even more spook-tastic if you actually understood what was said, and it has spookiness in bucket loads anyway [

Jigsaw's Escape is your standard "escape the room" style
point'n'click game. Except the room is filling with deadly nerve gas (although I haven't seen any evidence of this yet). And there are grenades strapped to the roof. That's just not friendly... [

Leon & The Terracotta Murders is the, not quite as weird, but still pretty strange, follow up to the very bizarre
Leon & The Magic Sturgeon. According to the game notes there are over 30 minutes of sound in the game, which I guess means it's quite a long
point'n'click adventure, but having played for a while I'm guessing most of those 30 minutes are the soundtrack to you trying to get the tricky movement controls to do want you want. Other than those it's a great game [

In
Trapped Episode 1 you have to escape the room, by using your finely honed
point'n'click skills. And when I say
finely honed I mean
finely honed, some of the places you have to click are tiny, and don't think that the [TAB] key is going to save you either [

First of all I warn you not get too frustrated by
Enschouse it's not in English, at points it's very hard to control, and there's no real end. In fact I couldn't get passed the sliding puzzle at all without using the [TAB] key to find a hidden hotspot. So why am I including it? Well it looks great, and I really wanted it to be a full blown
point'n'click adventure rather than the dead end it turned into. Hopefuly the author will come back to it and finish it off some day [

Footnote: A big thanks to
doodoo.ru for entertaining me this Sunday and letting me catch up with some
Point'n'clickery I obviously missed first time round (even if some of the advertising it carries is a little dubious).
Haunted House Massacre is not a game to let the kids play. That much you may have guessed from the name. It's a very simple to complete
point'n'click horror based adventure, with some nice atmospheric bits (play with the lights down, and the volume up). The major let down is that you can complete the game without even visiting the majority of the rooms that build the tension up, even if you do though the game is over all too quickly [

Find Small Men is a
point'n'click game, and if you look at the picture above you might be thinking "there's a computer on a desk, with a wastepaper basket right next to it - this is obviously an escape the room style game". Well wrong. This is something completely different. Your task is to find all of the smalll men (they're like talking
Jelly babies) hidden in each level, against a time limit. If you fail you have to go right back to the begining, and the small men change position every time you play, which makes cheating pretty hard. Unless you use the [TAB] key. But I know you would
never do that [
