A nostalgic collection of slow-paced, puzzle-driven adventures with varied tones from fantasy to horror to noir, played through point-and-click interaction.

What players say

Players praise the faithful NES ports of Shadowgate, Deja Vu, and The Uninvited with mouse support and filters, but warn that the puzzles are obscure and will require a guide. The collection is short and works well on Steam Deck, though long-time players say no further volumes were made.
