Gold-Plated Games

If you’re a fan of point-and-click adventures, these Weeklong Deals are for you! Several high-quality titles have landed among the discounts, along with some lesser-known but interesting-looking offerings. Also the Stronghold games keep coming back again and again, so consider picking those up so I can stop talking about them.

We’re about halfway through Spooky Games 6 if you need to catch up on our yearly horror game ritual, and already we’ve covered some absolute gems. The rest of our streams this month are going horror-heavy as well, with tonight and Wednesday going to a full run of the lost classic Afterfall: Insanity. If you’ve never seen this thing in action, I implore you to join us as we discover just how wild low-budget Polish Dead Space can get. We’re starting at 9pm PDT tonight on our Twitch channel!
