Zoink is related to Image & From, well known for the _SteamWorld_ games. Flipping Death is hard to describe and categorize: it's weird, in a loving way---until you take control of the main character and have to move about to solve puzzles. diff --git a/content/games/kathy-rain.md b/content/games/kathy-rain.md index 9166234..c9bf602 100644 --- a/content/games/kathy-rain.md +++ b/content/games/kathy-rain.md @@ -1,5 +1,5 @@ --- -title: "Kathy Rain: A Forgotten 1995 Point & Click Jewel" +title: "Kathy Rain: A Forgotten 1995 Point & Click Jewel from 2016" date: 2021-11-26 score: 4 game_release_year: 2016 @@ -9,6 +9,8 @@ game_name: "Kathy Rain" game_developer: 'Clifftop Games' game_platform: 'PC' game_genre: 'Adventure' +tags: + - adventure --- _Adventure games are dead_---the title of a forum post that pops up every few months since 1996 or so. Then devs reveal a promising title at E3, the hype is real, the tension rises, the game is released, and everybody posts _adventure games are dead_ again. Sure, there are exceptions, such as Gilbert and Winnick's Thimbleweed Park. But wait, even a year before that release, _Kathy Rain_ popped up, Clifftop Games' debut no less. A forgotten (at least, by me) retro-inspired noir point & click adventure, set in 1995, that delivers on almost all fronts.
