Talking, puzzling, and exploring, together in harmony
Pocket Gamer's Top 26 best point-and-click adventure games list is brought to you in association with Meridian 157: Chapter 1.
I am very disappointed in Apple games for Mac. Best games for mac. There is nothing that is just relaxing and fun.I can’t find anything developed for females. Women and girls often like games that are easier to do, have some story line, not dark, and they “create” something. Almost all of the games are for males, and are dark and about fighting it to the end.
Merdian 157: Chapter 1 thrusts players into the role of a meteorologist sent to a sub-arctic island to uncover the reason behind a strange weather anomaly. Upon your arrival though it becomes immediately clear that there's something far more mysterious at play.
It delivers heavily on atmosphere, with a compelling story set against an eerie backdrop that keeps you constantly wondering what's around the next corner. Meridian 157 never shies away from challenging its players either, offering a variety of ingenious and intricately designed puzzles that's sure to keep you immersed in this impressive point and click adventure game.

Updated November 21, 2019: New entries added
The old point-and-click adventure genre fell into disuse and neglect following its early '90s golden period. Fans of the classic LucasArts adventures like Monkey Island were left to pine for a bygone age.
But the advent of smartphones and tablets, as well as a thriving indie game scene and online crowdfunding models, has seen the genre resurrected.
Not only resurrected, but often developed and spliced with other genres. There are some deeply interesting point-and-click adventure games out there that play with time and narrative conventions in bold new ways.
The following 25 games are all over the map in tone, setting, length and complexity. But they all take you on a rollicking good adventure.
Meridian 157: Chapter 1
Merdian 157: Chapter 1 is an old school point and click adventure game in the same vein as classic titles like Myst and Riven. It's meticulously designed puzzles, beautiful visuals, and stellar audio production make it one of the most atmospheric adventure games for mobile, and one that's sure to win many fans.
Day of the Tentacle Remastered
Day of the Tentacle might be old, but that doesn't stop it from being excellent. Like a fine wine, it's only matured with age. This remastered version adds new hand-drawn art, remastered music and sound, and commentary from creator Tim Schafer.
The Journey Down: Chapter One
The Journey Down is intriguing, funny, entertaining, and it really makes you think. All the things we love in a point-and-click adventure, then.
Thimbleweed Park
A point-and-click puzzler with a deeply nostalgic LucasArts feel, Thimbleweed Park revels in its throw-back control system, retro visual style, complex narrative and hilarious dialogue. They do make 'em like they used to after all.
Superbrothers: Sword and Sworcery EP
Old Mac Computer
Point And Click Old Mac Game Tree Stand
Point-and-click adventures don't come any weirder, more enigmatic, or more beautiful than Superbrothers: Sword and Sworcery EP.
Gemini Rue
What if sci-fi met noir? Well, that's what Gemini Rue has to offer. It's a futuristic adventure featuring two separate main characters whose stories intertwine. If you like your adventures dark, gritty, and moody - go for Gemini Rue.
The Silent Age
The Silent Age is an excellent indie adventure set in a dystopian future. You play as a janitor who discovers an item that allows him to travel in time. And he uses it to - you guessed it - save the world.
The Walking Dead: The Game
Telltale is the king of the modern point-and-click adventure game, and the Walking Dead IP offers a great showcase for its popular blend of tough narrative decisions, QTE action, and light puzzling.
Machinarium
It might be a few years old now, but Machinarium is still one of the best point and clickers out there. Featuring an artful sense of character, storytelling, and world design, it remains one of the most appealing adventure games out there.
OXENFREE
A deeply mysterious adventure with a beautifully artsy aesthetic, OXENFREE is packed with excellent writing, top-notch voice acting, and interesting characters. It's pretty spooky too.
The Stillness of the Wind
It might control like a point-and-click adventure, but The Stillness of the Wind is more concerned with telling a moving story about life and loss than solving silly puzzles. This one's a bit special. Directx 12 pc games list.
Neverending Nightmares
This deeply unsettling point-and-click adventure from Matt Gilgenbach deals with weighty themes like depression and mental illness in a suitably grim, unsettling way. It's a bit like playing through a nightmare.
Ghost Trick: Phantom Detective
You've never heard of Ghost Trick? Have you been lying in a haunted mansion with your hands over your eyes and ears for the last forever?! Well take those hands and put them on your iPad, as this twisted little puzzler is addictive as hell - and funny too!
Milkmaid of the Milky Way
This award-winning adventure is charming, concise, and refreshingly upbeat - especially if you've been playing a lot of the grimmer games on this list. Written entirely in rhyming poetry, you must guide milkmaid Ruth around the isolated Calf Ledge in 1920s Norway.
The Last Express
Prince of Persia creator Jordan Mechner brings us a bonkers murder mystery, set on a train where everything moves in real time. You'll have to be in the right place at the right time to catch the crook.
The Inner World
This twisted German adventure takes place in the hollow belly of an enormous planet, and stars Robert: an adorably clueless court musician who inadvertently ends up on course to save the land of Asposia. Games like zoo tycoon mac.
Distraint 2
An abstract, streamlined 2D point-and-click adventure with a keen grasp on horror, Distraint 2 creeps under your skin without resorting to cheap jump scares. It's atmospheric alright.
Broken Sword: Director's Cut
Broken Sword: Shadow of the Templars is regarded as one of the best point and click adventure games ever created - and the Director's Cut made it even better (well, aside from the iffier opening segment.) In no other game will you hear quite as much snark, fall in love with as many characters, or visit the number of countries on the globe as you do in the excellent Broken Sword.
Botanicula
Botanicula is a short and sweet adventure about a bunch of weird plant-like creatures who have to work together to save their tree home from a bunch of parasites. If you like Machinarium, you'll love this.
Year Walk
Set in a Scandinavian forest, Year Walk isn't quite like anything else you've ever played. With well-designed puzzles, a mysterious story and a vaguely unsettling atmosphere, Year Walk is one walk on the wild side.
Technobabylon
Wadjet Eye knows what it's doing with this whole point-and-click malarkey. Technobabylon tells a ripping cyberpunk yarn, with elements of Minority Report, The Matrix and of course Bladerunner. Mix in some likeable characters and plenty of trial and error puzzling, and you're laughing.
Beneath A Steel Sky: Remastered
A risky concept to attempt after 15 years of silence since the original game, Beneath a Steel Sky: Remastered is a worthy tribute that remains as entertaining as ever.
Detective Grimoire
Detective Grimoire is a slick whodunnit detective game that left us wanting a sequel to flesh out its bright ideas. In the absence of one, we're quite happy to go back and replay the original.
Grim Fandango Remastered
Old Point And Click Games
Grim Fandango Remastered isn't the best remastering job on this list, and some of the logical leaps it demands are frustrating by modern standards. But with razor-sharp dialogue and a hugely imaginative world that mashes up film noir with Mexican folklore, it's impossible not to love all the same.
Life is Strange
There's a lot of The Walking Dead (the game, that is) to Life Is Strange, but with a notable time-manipulation twist that allows you to change your meaningful decisions. Add in an involving teen-oriented story, and you have one of the most beloved games of recent years.
Broken Age
Point-and-click hero Tim Schafer got his fans to pay for the development of this one, and it's just about worth the Kickstarter cash. An old school adventure with a fluffy, painterly art style, a bucket load of gags, and puzzles that almost make sense if you squint.

Editor's Note: A Happy 2020 to you and yours
The Old Tree is a beautiful hand drawn Samorost-esque puzzle adventure game in which you interact with the environment to escort a microscopic alien being on its way.
The puzzles are fairly easy to solve if you’re familiar with he Samorost-style gameplay – in which you click on items around the screen and see what happens, then make an educated guess about how to solve the puzzle. Taking around fifteen minutes to complete, is a wonderfully atmospheric experience, and well worth checking out for a well executed bite-sized point and click adventure.
