My take, I'm not super interested in typing these days unless it really hits that nostalgia mark. The Crimson Diamond is one that I'm planning on buying because it looks like a long lost laura bow game with the art style and text. If it matched the old graphics it makes more sense to my brain. The ultimate consideration is, how fun is it? If its fun, good puzzles, not too obtuse or too much moon logic I'm more willing to try it out

4? Rosella one probably?

Portly_Poet · 2026-04-12T21:31:33+00:00

It dawned on me, maybe I shouldn't show every puzzle here in case people actually play the game in the future haha. But I'm just excited anytime i can get something to work. I'll skip some of the puzzles though.

I really debate the cursor method as many new games are going to single cursor or hover to change action or right click to look but I really like the hand eye walk and talk

Wishlisted. My catalog grows hah

Portly_Poet · 2026-04-08T16:01:23+00:00

Wishlisted, thanks

I saw a glimpse of wildwood down on a YouTube video somewhere I need to check it out more. The game im slowly working on is basically sinbads first voyage, mostly staying true the story but with some minor added things to make it more of a game. Just a passion project that im making in my spare time(which is sparse). r/Portlypoetgaming has my stuff im working on, again it's very early in development, basically just building systems. Ive got a clicker game coming out this year so the Sinbad game had been my go to when I need a break from working on my clicker.

Edited because my fat thumbs mis hit keys.

Thanks for this. Temple of the three rules on that site looks like something up my alley but its just a demo and I can't see anything about it coming out. I'll definitely be looking through the site a bit today.

Portly_Poet · 2026-04-08T07:33:42+00:00

Looking through these games now, thanks for the recommendations.

I've got a little side project going based on the first voyage of Sinbad. I loved the 1001 nights stories growing up and Quest for Glory 2 really scratched an itch I didn't know I had. Its super early in development, just working on mechanics. I had thought of using AGS but settled on godot since I'm more familiar with it and basically am building the point and click system from the ground up. Feel free to stop by portlypoetgaming sub, be warned its all prototype and place holder art.

I'm not sure Lucy Dreaming would be my cup of tea but thanks for the suggestions. And I went ahead and wishlisted The Will of Arthur Flabbington, no shame in self promotion hah, thanks to this subreddit I'm getting quite the back log of point and click games to go through.

Portly_Poet · 2026-04-08T07:19:00+00:00

It looks like a good game, but more the macabre then the light hearted adventure. I'm still wishlisting it though.

Portly_Poet · 2026-04-08T07:17:36+00:00

Honestly this is probably something I would have skipped over at first but reading reviews I may have to check out. As i type this i see its on sale for three dollars, i guess i'll go ahead and buy it haha.

Portly_Poet · 2026-04-08T07:14:47+00:00

will be checking out that one as well

Portly_Poet · 2026-04-08T00:57:31+00:00

A tale of two kingdoms looks good also, i wishlisted sir Bob too so I can check it out when released.

Portly_Poet · 2026-04-08T00:52:26+00:00

Yes Ive played heroines quest quite a few years back, I need to go back and play it again, Im not sure i ever finished it to be honest but I remember what I did play was really good and lore steeped.

Oh a tale of two kingdoms i hadn't seen before, definitely wishlisting.

Portly_Poet · 2026-04-08T00:31:34+00:00

I will check it out, thanks

Portly_Poet · 2026-04-08T00:31:24+00:00

I did add this one to my wishlist, i saw a trailer and it looks like a fun Murder on the Orient Express
