"Back in my day"
"Games weren't really better, I was just able to enjoy games which weren't particularly good." Sure enough, there's plenty of actually good old games, but these aren't some of those games. I played the first two as a teen and nostalgia brought me to them again. I was surprised how poor and short they both are. They're very low fidelity and require you notice tiny details. In one instance, you literally need to click on a smudge in the middle of very dark rubble. The only solution to find that spot is to hover over every pixel, or consult a guide. The second one also has a few save corrupting bugs that can halt your progress, requiring you to restart the whole playthrough. I found two as a teen, and third during my recent play. The third game started out very promising. I genuinely liked it and plan to finish it eventually. Unfortunately, it has no respect for your time and employs actual chores masquerading as puzzles. Find out the blood type of several samples, but not get told how to tell them apart - that forces you to test previous samples as well. There's no puzzle in that, it's just busywork. Type in a long string of text using an on-screen keyboard with wonky mouse movement (this is the point I gave up). That's literally not a puzzle, you just click on things on the screen for a very long time. When it comes to some of the tougher puzzles in this game, it's easy to get intimidated and think they're just way too brainy, but then you realize that they're really just poorly designed - there's usually many different ways such puzzles could be constructed with the clues remaining the exact same and sometimes you're required to make absurd leaps of logic. Solving these sorts of puzzles isn't rewarding. And then there's typical adventure game nonsense that will make you groan, like using battery acid on the hinges to open the door.
