I’ve been ranting about the need for a resurgence in point and click adventures for a good while now. The genre’s been forsaken as unfashionable for far too long, and in this Wii and DS-dominated climate, there’s absolutely no excuse for not bringing it back for a new audience. Thankfully, games like Hotel Dusk, Another Code and Zak & Wiki are threatening to start a resurgence, and the logic of that phenomenon has not been lost on Daedelic Entertainment, as they’re bringing their new point and click A New Beginning to both of Nintendo’s consoles as well as the PC. Good work lads. Dave approves.
Having had a behind closed doors demonstration of the PC version, Dave approves of other things too. Hit the jump so he can tell you about them.
