Point and click adventure games are a thing of the past for a reason. There something about the camera angles and axis differentiation that doesn’t gel with today’s modernisation of gaming - shuffling conveyorbelt-like through a level going from one piece of obvious cover to another like you’re taking part in an episode of the generation game as hosted by Marcus Fenix. Back in the day they seemed fine when we weren’t much more than confused naive children taken in by plinky plunky music and bright colours, but nowadays gaming has become more refined - or maybe accurately more linear - and the cod playing Neanderthals of today can’t piece together the batshit logic of the adventure game designer of the moment.
