Get To the Moon, Primordia, The Longest Journey and Dreamfall, Miasmata, and other indie adventures 60% off!
There’s no adventure like an indie adventure, so: Adventurers Assemble! Truth be told, almost all point-and-click adventure games that follow the classic gameplay ideas and general feeling, are in fact indies. Once one of the main foundations of the gaming industry, adventure gaming is nowadays strangely forgotten by the big players in game development business. Maybe that’s a good thing? What would have happened if point-and-clicks were to be released as modern AAA titles? Imagine: tutorials teaching you how to hold your mouse, “helpful” arrows telling you where to click, DLCs with alternate endings, and microtransaction payments for hints. Yeah, its probably a good thing that adventure gaming has become an entertainment niche. We decided to pay a tribute to this bastion of classic gaming model by promoting some of the most interesting recent adventure titles, point-and-click or not. Let’s see what games you can get 60% off this weekend, shall we?
To the Moon came as a revelation proving that when there’s a brilliant story to tell, there’s no need for a big budget, cutting-edge technology, and massive marketing campaignes. Telling a very personal and moving story, and pairing original narrative with remarkable gameplay, this title received much praise from the gamers and critics alike. There’s a bit of a cult following around this game, so if you haven’t yet played it it’s about time you found out what fascinates people so much about it. A moving tale about important things in life awaits you, now for only $3.99.
Primordia is an intriguing and deep story set in distant future, on post-apocalyptic Earth inhabited by robotic lifeforms–the last artificial carriers of the planet’s spark of intelligence, or maybe even souls. We join Horatio Nullbuilt, a hermit philosopher, and his snarky sidekick, the flying orb Crispin, on their quest to discover the secrets of the nuclear wasteland they call home. There are some profound questions the metal man is hesitant to ask, but the answers will find their way of surfacing either he wants to learn them or not. Be sure not to miss other Wadjet Eye adventures: the scientific thriller Resonance, dark sci-fi drama Gemini Rue–all of them for only $3.99 each. You can also grab a collection of four esoteric noir detective stories, the Blackwell Bundle, priced at only $5.99.
One of the most memorable and cherished titles in the history of adventure gaming is The Longest Journey, a magical story of two very different worlds, that seem to be doomed to collide. April Ryan, a young arts student, unwillingly drawn into an interdimensional intrigue, is the only person who can make a difference. What she doesn’t know embarking on her quest, is that there’s much more than meets the eye to each of the worlds, and that they’re not as far apart as the first impression suggests. The game is available for only $3.99 this weekend. The phenomenal story had to wait six long years for continuation, but it finally arrived in the form of Dreamfall: The Longest Journey, a gorgeous and powerful vision that just begs to be explored. Yours for only $5.99.
The survival and exploration-focused Miasmata is a whole other type of adventure game. It invites you to freely roam a detailed mysterious island, that holds the secret to developing a cure for a deadly plague. You will have to do whatever it takes to find it, as you’re suffering from the strange illness yourself. However, you won’t just be facing the prospect of wilderness survival in a secluded area, while running a fever and turning delusional. Oh no, that would be far too easy. There’s a strange giant feline beast watching your every move from within the shadows, following you, tracking you like the predator stalks its prey. For that’s exactly what you are–dinner. This atmospheric, imaginative, and very challenging free-form adventure can be yours for only $5.99.
That’s not all, by any means. You can find more amazing games waiting for you on our promo page–each and every one of them with a solid 60% discount. The offer last until Tuesday, May 14, at 3:59AM GMT.
