    Hellooooo,

    I've been hearing about this game Samorost for a while, tried playing it on dialup a few months back, but couldn't be bothered sitting through the loading screens at 38kbps. Now I'm on shiny new broadband, I had another play. What a beautiful point-and-click adventure. And there's absolutely no inventory to worry about;

    I got through the game in about 20 minutes, but what a wonderful 20 minutes it was.

    Then you can try the newly released SAMOROST2 (but only a demo, as the sequel is a paid download).

    And if you still need more of the same, the developers made a game for the band The Polyphonic Spree. You can play that game here; Quest for the Rest.

    Love the artwork.

    Currently stuck on the second screen, with the 3 bird things, one of which falls in the pit...

    I remember playing Quest for the Rest last year, it's one of the most subtle point and click games I've ever played, and utterly engrossing.

    I'll give Samorost a try abit later on when I have some free time :)

    Well, are you going to buy the 2nd chapter of Samorost2 to help the developer out?

    I'm going to get it after Christmas. Cool new interview with the guy here.

    Personally, I think that Samorost has become a Classic. I recently heard of a Samorost 2.
