@little-writer.bsky.social played Elroy and the Aliens adventure game, and wrote a review to Nice Game Hints, thanks! Apparently the puzzles are quite easy, as he didn't really need our hints for it. Read more what Johnny has to say about it: www.nicegamehints.com/a/elroy-and-...

So cool to get to publish a review from @little-writer.bsky.social ! Thank you Johnny! Puzzle-wise, Earth Must Die is quite simple, read more here: www.nicegamehints.com/a/earth-must...

Johnny Nys - The Point 'n Clicker Game Blog@little-writer.bsky.social · 5mo ago

"Earth Must Die!" is pure escapism with a very stylistic graphical design, which personally made me think of a combination of Disney’s "The Emperor’s New Groove" and Dreamworks’s "Megamind", except wrapped up in the absurd British humor of Douglas Adams. I reviewed it for @nicegamehints.bsky.social!

Is the arse-end of January too late for a 2025 round-up? Perhaps, but nobody has managed to stop me so far. Read all about the maps, guides, and mischief I've been up to 👇 buymeacoffee.com/westydesign/...

I can't express how much it means to win an award for Best Art & Animation. I've been doing the art for my games for nearly 25 years and only just got to the point where I thought it was "good" with Rosewater. Thank you again @agotyawards.bsky.social!

So happy to share that Foolish Mortals took the Best Puzzles Award, the Best Soundtrack, Effects, & Dubbing Award, and tied with Rosewater @grundislav.games for 2nd place in the Jury Award. Thank you @agotyawards.bsky.social & congratulations to all the awesome adventure games that released in 2025!

Who will take home the crown this year? 👑 The AGOTY Awards 2025 nominees are about to be unveiled. Mention the game that deserves to be on the list! 👇 #AGOTYAwards #GamingCommunity #AdventureGames youtu.be/dNeAAqEIIRw

Anyone played The Biggleboss Incident? The first full adventure game by @pointandclickd.bsky.social. Our @westydesign.bsky.social took the game for a spin and wrote low-spoiler hints for it and a review! Hints: www.nicegamehints.com/guide/biggle... Review: www.nicegamehints.com/a/the-biggle...

DAY 3 game you think everyone should play Old Skies This beautiful point and click narrative driven game should be on everyone's gaming bucket list. The story, the animation, the voice acting, the details - everything is so perfect and well thought out.

This game got good reviews also from our @westydesign.bsky.social (see here: www.nicegamehints.com/a/the-excava...). And if you are worried that you get stuck on a puzzle, he also wrote hints for you: www.nicegamehints.com/guide/hobs-b... Quite a no-brainer to try it out.

The Drifter (by @dave.powerhoof.com) is yet another great #adventuregame for the 2025 lineup. I can strongly recommend the game, but be aware of the heavy subjects in the game. My review for the game is here: www.nicegamehints.com/a/the-drifte...

Very much looking forward to playing this when I’m in Melbs this year. 😂 (PS. I have been helping the devs with a little research and the interviews I’ve been conducting have been truly hilarious.)

What a neat little game! Poco, by Whalefall. Cool, short, and sweet 3d point'n'click about a small clown trying to get back to the circus. It has puzzles and we, of course, have hints for them: www.nicegamehints.com/guide/poco/ Go play the game, it's free: store.steampowered.com/app/3454610/...

Have you checked the demo for City of Voices? I liked it a lot. And the full-game will have an in-game hint system, as it should. If you wonder if your game should have hint system in it, contact me. More here: www.nicegamehints.com/game-devs

Kini Games@kinigames.bsky.social · last yr.

In the full game, we'll have a hint system. And I want it to make clear that there's no shame in using it if stuck. Much better than guessing or brute forcing. In the meantime, I'll write a demo hints post for the Steam discussions page. City of Voices demo: store.steampowered.com/app/3342470/...
