Overview
Description

Ben There, Dan That! is a tongue‑in‑cheek point‑and‑click adventure from Size Five Games. Travel from a deadly Peruvian jungle to alien invasions and even a battle against Hitler’s robot‑dinosaur army, all while solving clever puzzles and enjoying witty dialogue. The game blends comedy with clever storytelling, offering a quirky narrative that feels like reading a funny, interactive book. The single‑player experience runs on PC and delivers indie charm with hand‑drawn art, memorable characters, and a variety of absurd scenarios. Perfect for fans of classic adventure games who love humor and brain‑teasing challenges.

Sam & Max: The Devil's Playhouse is a five‑episode point‑and‑click adventure that blends sci‑fi humor with mystery. Players wield Max's new psychic toys—teleportation, precognition, shape‑shifting—to thwart alien warlords and eldritch threats. Set in a twisted, Twilight‑Zone‑style world, each episode deepens the story of the Devil's Toybox, cultist Mole Men, and the looming Elder God. The game delivers witty dialogue, quirky puzzles, and a narrative that rewards careful exploration.
