EsCape (GH)

EsCape (GH) offers the, by now, familiar tale of being trapped in a room and needing to escape. It's not new ground for a point'n'click game, but it is much loved. Kind of like wearing your favourite scuffed old shoes [subbed by Suki, Flop & winniethepooh].

Trapped

I haven't quite worked out Trapped yet, but I don't think I am making too outrageous a guess by saying we are trying to "escape the room" in this point'n'click game. For now I'd be happy if someone could just tell me how I'm meant to work out what the safe code is... in the meantime my top tip, if you haven't got to this point yet, is don't try to cheat with the [TAB] key...

Hanso Foundation

Ok. If you don't like Lost and/or you want to keep control of your life look away now. Rumour has it the Hanso Foundation is the trailhead for a Lost related ARG. Eeeek. Here's the email I received for you ARG addicts:

It started during the Season 2 premiere on Channel 4 last week when during the break there was an advert for the Hanso Foundation, which contained a phone number. Ring the number to get started (it's free), a quick google will tell you what it is if you missed it on TV. Not much going on at the moment, but who knows where it could lead...

As an aside I've also seen Hanso linked from US based sites so I don't think this is a UK only based deal. Conspiracy-ise all you like in the comments to this post, but just don't, I beg you, get me involved in this....[subbed by Rhiannon].

Domestic Bliss

Experience some relationship troubles point'n'click style in Domestic Bliss (I'm detecting a hint of irony in the name). The best description I've received about this one is "almost as infuriating as being married". Warning people: I am not your marriage councellor [subbed by f00 & oxyacetylene].

Fly Further

Fly Further is a neat little adver-game for an airline (the clue is in the domain name). The idea of the game is to pilot the airliner through the skies collecting the power-ups along the way to keep your passengers happy. Apparently flying a commercial airliner is actually like this in real life... [subbed by yourmotherquake].

The Last Dalek

I'm just slightly addicted to the latest series of Dr Who so the The Last Dalek game is definately for me, even if it features the major foes from the last series, rather than this series (I'm lead to believe it's the Cybermen this time round). Right, now I just need to work out how to play from behind the sofa and I'll be sorted [subbed by vwcamperman].

Lenses

I've just started playing Lenses and it's a beautiful little point'n'click game, let down only by a lack of sound, although I freely admit I was adding my own sound effects, especially when the machine was moving the lenses, but that's probably just the big kid in me. I haven't worked out the goal of the game yet, but I have worked out that I didn't need my university education to work out how the lenses work. Enjoy [subbed by winniethepooh].

Escape From Alcabrass

Escape From Alcabrass is another "clear a path" point'n'click. game. This time it features a rocket wearing snail. Of course you say. What game doesn't? [via gamershood].

Dangerous Morning

Point'n'click a safe path through the scene and avoid getting arrested in Dangerous Morning. It's in Russian but I'm sure you'll get the idea [via gamershood].

Tidy Room

I don't fully understand, what I have decided to call, "Tidy Room", but since when did that stop me posting a point'n'click game? The first stage is simple enough to get a grip on; clean up the messy items in the room. After that though it enters an interior decor stage (at least I think that is what is going on) that I just don't get. Anyway, at least it looks nice... [via doodoo.ru].

Prime Suspects

Prime Suspects sees you tracking down yet more lists of objects in the, rather nicely rendered, scenes. Very much in the same mould as the first game in the series, Huntsville, the game will tax your eyes more than your point'n'click skills, but it's still a nice diversion for a Friday [subbed by Nats].

Qwizard Qwest 3

Puzzle fanatics will be pleased to here that Greg and Lola have been slaving over a hot keyboard once again (isn't it time to take a break you two?) to produce Qwizard Qwest 3, I'll hand over to them for the explanation:

A third Qwest has arrived right on time. Work out the answers, use the initials to unscramble the anagram and this time use the anagram to solve the final URL. As always there's a forum for those that are stuck. Remember the q at the end of the answer!
