Hey so what are some great point and click games on steam? New or old it doesn't matter, but what does matter is that please don't recommend something with dumb puzzles that doesn't make sense. Ex: The Longest Journey.

I have gemini rue, the longest journey, and indiana jones fate of atlantis. If you feel you might be naming something obvious, just go ahead and name it cause I probably played it in the past and might want to replay it anyway.

If you want something a bit more arcadey, and slightly less challenging check out Puzzle Dimension.

I heard LA Noire might be going for $5 this week, anyone know if there's any truth to that? I'm outside the US so struggling to follow all the deals.

LA Noire has been 5 dollars several times already this year. Will probably be at that price somewhere this week.

Did you like Fate of Atlantis? I may just be nostalgic, but it was one of my favorites, and I think there are three others by LucasArts in a pack on Steam (Loom, another Indie game, and one I forget).

I think Machinarium is supposed to be good if you like the robot style -- I don't know if the puzzles make sense though. Monkey Island games are classic and more humor-focused, but I don't know enough to tell you exactly which are the best. I wouldn't be surprised if they did have some silly/funny puzzles that might make super logical sense.

Alternativa looks interesting, scifi/cyberpunk. I just added it to my wishlist. Superbrothers: Swords and Sworcery EP is a very pretty and unique game. I don't think there is a lot of depth or puzzles, so it MAY be more of a walkthrough/experience thing, but it's very atmospheric.

The Broken Sword collection is $2 for 3 games, 80% off, so I'd say definitely grab that: http://store.steampowered.com/sub/6447/

Cool, I always held off of these two, because I thought I heard people didn't like them removing some things from the original or something? But I guess not, thanks!

This doesn't really help me at all honestly. I know there are PnC games are sale lol. I'm asking for ones that fit in what I asked for.

I actually just bought Fate of Atlantis a few mins ago. It was just an impulse thing, but I just don't want to run into situations like I did Longest Journey where I feel like I need a guide. Some of the ones you named seem interesting, guess I'll read more about them.

I hope you didn't buy it by itself without the pack, since I feel like the pack goes on sale every so often (maybe during the Christmas sale), and I think all of the games are supposed to be well respected. The rest of the games I mentioned should also be fairly popular or well-regarded choices.

I think I DID use guides on Fate of Atlantis, so I hope you don't hate it. Later on the game offers a branching path, where you can focus more on puzzles, combat, or something else (mix between the two?).

nah, sorry I actually bought the bundle. Didn't realize it, it's late lol. Hmm, branching path sounds interesting. I probably wouldn't hate it so long as I feel like I'm making progress. Thanks

Crap.

Didn't realized that Intrusion 2 was on a Flash Deal already. They need to make those timers more prominent!

Guess I'm waiting to see if it goes back on.
