Rekindled my love for Point and Click

I grew up loving Space Quest and Quest for Glory. Loved them, but sucked at them. Now that I am older I can actually both enjoy these games and beat them. I forgot how much I loved these games until I got the Blackwell Bundle randomly for a $2 sale. Everything that made Space Quest overly frustrating seems to be fixed in these Blackwell games. They have all of the fun and satisfaction from figuring out there logical puzzles, but less of the overwhelming frustration that 90s point and click adventures sometimes had (such as dropping or misusing one item that made the game unwinabble two hours later). Great voice acting. Great music/atmosphere. And good writing. It is a compelling enjoyable games, and now I will go back and play point and click again for the first time in many years. Thank you Blackwell!

Weekend of Good StoryTelling--Cheap!

I never thought I would enjoy this as much as I did. I'm not much of a point n click fan. Most I find tedious with puzzles that distract from the plot. Not so, here. The puzzles, for the most part were extensions of the "detecting" rather than random silly puzzles slapped in the middle of the game to distract the player from the thin plot. Here the characters and world-building are thick and rich. This is a good game for those who aren't fond of Point N Clicks or detective tales. It's story and character-driven. I was also surprised, given the level of graphics, how immersed I was in the story-telling world and how much I cared about my pixelated characters. While I'm not a graphics freak, pixellated figures don't usually grab my attention with this kind of depth. It kept me up late, worrying I needed to get to the next plot point with my blocky little friends and their snappy relationship. For a few dollars on sale I was thoroughly entertained all weekend and bought the successor to polish the story off. Get this bundle. It's good entertainment for a few dollars.

Five Excellent Game Series

No spoilers here. Yet again, these are excellent point-and-click games from Wadjet Eye Games with great voiceovers, stories, music and atmosphere. Rosangela is a spiritual medium similar to Melinda Gordon in the Ghost Whisperer TV series, and Joey is a reluctant but cool spirit guide from the '30s, always attached to you, but only visible to you and ghosts you help transition to the afterlife. You get to play both roles. It will help you to remember to use your notebook to interview everyone you talk to, and use it to join clues to get new leads and map addresses - your phone, phonebook, and computer also provide clues. Each game has standalone stories but there is also a bigger story arc so you won't regret buying all five games; I'd advise you to buy them as a bundle. It's a cool series. You get drawn into the story and characters in a way you didn't think you could especially with a retro, pixelated game. Order of the titles: Blackwell Legacy, Blackwell Unbound (prequel to Legacy and Joseph Mitchell is a real person), Blackwell Convergence (6 mths after Legacy), Blackwell Deception, and Blackwell Epiphany (final game).

Absolute must have

I purchased this bundle on Steam a while ago for $25 so you are getting quite a savings here on GOG.com. Each game is at least a solid 2 hours of focused gameplay, with the last two games being quite longer than that. They obviously work best as a series and not on their own since the story ties together incredibly well throughout the series. If you like adventure games then you are doing yourself a disservice if you do not purchase these games.

Really great games

These games surprised me because I had never heard of them by the time the fourth came out. They're stunning. Each one is short, but the writing is really well done, the characters are great, and the production quality is very high for indie games. If you enjoy point&click at all, don't miss them.
