It's really unfortunate how Ragnar Tornquist's ideas and concepts for the adventure genre got noticeably worse with time*. From TLJ which was (and still is) a masterpiece to the good-ish Dreamfall to the barely acceptable and very uneven Chapters to...his future Dustborn project that looks like it's going to be a complete embarrassment.

Sadly the case everywhere you look. All that imagination they used to have has suddenly up and vanished into thin air.

Man.... I loved TLJ... enjoyed Dreamfall. Never got around the Chapters, is it even worth playing?

Call of the Sea comes out today. You might want to check that out. I think it is already available on the game pass.

Personally, I can't get into any of these point-and-click games. All that pixel hunting and going back and forth after every new item you get in the inventory just to find what kind of ridiculous item use and combinations the devs made.
Still, sometimes I get excited to try some game but get frustrated after an hour or two. And I tried almost all of the so loved classics- Beneath a Steel Sky, Monkey Island, Leasure Suit Larry , Brokern Sword, Day of the Tentacle, Machinarium etc. Only ones I played more were Full Throttle and Grim Fandango but in those there were some game breaking bugs where I couldn't progress...
Oh wait, I finished Syberia 1 and 2 and loved those. Stayed out of 3 because every was saying it's so bad... Now it seems like new sequel is coming up next year - https://store.steampowered.com/app/1410640/Syberia_The_World_Before/
Ah, and the first three Black Mirror games were great. Also haven't played the fourth for the same reason as Syberia.
PS: The guys who made that last Black Mirror games seem for have some good looking games:
The Raven - https://store.steampowered.com/app/736810/The_Raven_Remastered/?curator_clanid=35895276
Book of Unwritten Tales - https://store.steampowered.com/app/221830/The_Book_of_Unwritten_Tales_The_Critter_Chronicles/?curator_clanid=35895276
The Book of Unwritten Tales 2 - https://store.steampowered.com/app/279940/The_Book_of_Unwritten_Tales_2/?curator_clanid=35895276

Well yeah. Sometimes the combinations are so bizzare that it would be quite hard to figure it out on your own unless you tried everything for hours on end.

Try Unavowed from Wadjet Eye. Their biggest and most ambitious game till date.
1 and 2 are still amazing.

Yup, I appreciated the attempt to introduce a lite C&C system and give the complete spotlight to its characters, though I wish it had more consistency story-wise and more interactivity overall. Those who can't quite digest the classic formula will likely have a better time with it since puzzles are rather straightforward and there's little backtracking involved. I personally prefer their previous titles, but still enjoyed the charming paranormal trip  |

Yeah this is definitely a good one. Never finished it, but it was very enjoyable. The dark eye also have some good adventure games. Chains of satinav and memoria.
