2025 was shockingly good for class point-and-click adventures, and Elroy And The Aliens seems like it flew under the radar despite being exceptionally polished.

I was looking over a list of some of the best games from 2025 and realizing that there are quite a few more that are still on my list to play which have received great reviews from critics and gamers. I've seen videos of these, but I haven't played them. But these 10 games look great! (A thread)

Direct control with a gamepad is slowly becoming my favorite way to play point and click adventure games.

This just in 😍 Elroy and the Aliens won Best Narrative at the Yugo Game Awards.

I haven't played this much RTS since the 90s. I usually play 8 vs. 8 or smaller but you can see plenty of massive 100 vs. 100 online matches on YouTube. Also: It's free and open-source. youtu.be/HVZIEaIKqs0?...
