Hunting vigorously through the lazylaces archives for "point'n'click" unearthed the following results...

Exmortis
First things first - don't even bother clicking on this game until it's dark in whatever time-zone you're in. Also I recommend waiting until you're on your own, and preferably you should crank the sound up too. Having spare underpants to hand is also advisable if you are of a nervous disposition. That's the prerequisites over and done with on with the game...

I was a bit dubious at first whether exmortis even was a point'n'click game, it seemed like a simple, if very spooky, flash toy with no real purpose, until I found the locked safe and figured there must be something more going on than I realised at first. Even now (I haven't completed the game), I'm not totally sure what the eventual goal is, but a little point'n'click experience has taught me that it's almost certainly to escape the house (express solution: don't enter the house at the begining and walk away while you can!).

So far I've reached the library (pictured) and figured out that I need to collect some symbols - I don't think I have them all. Post hints, and ask for help, in the comments to this post, but for now I'm off to bed (to have nightmares) and I'll be trying to complete this one in the morning. [hosted at newgrounds].

PS. Ultra-simple first hurdle hint: click 'play this game' on the newgrounds page to play this game!

The House
Another day, another point'n'click game. And you thought Monday was going to be boring? Anode Et Cathode the same people who brought you Le Bureau now bring you The House (La Maison?). This one looks harder than Le Bureau, and I haven't got very far with it in the 5 minutes I had to tinker with it, hopefully I'll complete it tonight after work, by which time I'm sure a whole walkthru will have been posted in the comments for this post (go on guys'n'gals).

Update: Due to a server outage at work I actually got this one completed in the morning, and thanks to all the comments posted now there's probably a complete walkthru if you want to trawl thru for help.

The Blue Chamber
If you haven't pirated the password paid the yen to play it yet I highly recommend playing the blue chamber, another room escaping installment from the makers of the crimson room and the viridian room, which is now out to play (ethically) for free.

PandAventure
Panda's little adventure is an ultra-cute little point'n'click game which I know is one of Allegra's favourites. It's not too taxing on the brain or the mouse finger, but it'll give you a warm fuzzy feeling inside. My only hint, should you need it, is that finding and using the flute is the key to the game.

YoPpi the AliEn
So you're ultra proficient at point'n'click gamery now are you? YoPpi the AliEn is darn cute, but very easy to complete (I managed it in about 5 mins without any hints), so for a challenge I'm starting the stopwatch now. Go...[ta allegra].

Brain Hotel
Visit the brain hotel with the same people that gave you a case of the crabs... not, as it appears, advice that means your next stop will be the doctor's surgery, but some more point'n'click gaming fun.

Scary Scavenger Hunt
More scary adventures, but this time with Garfield (yes he's still going), in the scary scavenger hunt. Once you're done with part one, part two offers more of the same. The stangest thing about these games is the huge doughnut craving you develop after about 10 minutes playing. I was actually in the car en-route to Tesco within seconds of completing part two.

Escape From The Coolsonian
And now a round up of some of the point'n'click-ery that's been keeping me occupied recently. First up some scary scooby doo capers in the escape from the coolsonian, and if that isn't enough try some horror on the high seas. Yoinks!

Le Bureau d'Anode & Cathode
Soon there won't be on-line games which don't involve escaping a room (okay, an office in this case) with lots of point'n'clicking. I'm running out of ways to describe these things, but I'm still loving them. Nice graphics, shame about the lack of audio, in Le Bureau. By the way, I'm escapee #1882 apparently. What's your number? [ta Incog Neato].

Little Lost Head
I have no idea what this game is really called as all the text describing it is in Japanese, but the idea of the thing is that a little girl's head floats away on a balloon and you have to help her retrieve it (no, really). So I've christened the game &quotLittle Lost Head" for want of a better name.

That aside it's rather a nice example of another point'n'click game, it reminds me of a cross between samorost and chasm, and it's really rather cute (if you ignore the fact that you're controlling a decapitated girl's body).

As usual feel free to post a comment if you get stuck, although I should warn you that I'm currently stuck on level 3 myself (why doesn't the pattern the bird shows me work?), but perhaps the very kind Incog Neato can help since they mailed me the link (have you completed it Incog?).

Note: mail me at the address at the bottom of the page for a downloaded copy of the game if the link isn't working.

99 Rooms
Not one, not two, but 99 rooms of flash point'n'click adventuring. It's not difficult, but it is plentiful, beautiful, atmospheric and spooky. Be sure to turn your sound up, and be careful of shivers down your spine and jumping out of your skin in a couple of the rooms. Excellent.

Update: currently you can't get into any one of the 99 rooms because their bandwidth limit as been exceeded, I highly recommend checking back though, it's well worth it.

Quest For The Rest
The Quest For The Rest is packed with Samorost-esque loveliness.
