The Quiet Return of Point-and-Tap Adventures

Adventure games were supposedly dead a decade ago. On mobile they're quietly having one of their best runs.

Lantern Hollow is a perfect case. It's short, hand-painted, and built around puzzles that respect the player instead of demanding a walkthrough.

The format suits touch perfectly — tapping a scene is more natural than it ever was with a mouse. The genre basically came home.

If you only try one game from our catalogue, make it an adventure. They're the most likely to win over someone who thinks phone games are shallow.
