Top 10 Point and Click Games for PS4

"Point and click games were always my favourite growing up. I spent countless hours on the likes Monkey Island and Broken Sword on my PC as a kid. Console gaming made it harder for the classic point and click adventure genre to live on: I mean, how can you point and click if you don’t have a mouse and a cursor?

PS4 point and click games are in abundance though. Well, the 21st century equivalent at least. Gone may be the literal pointing and clicking that was once so ubiquitous with the puzzle adventure genre, but the form is gaining strength. The calibre of today’s graphics means that developers are more and more wanting to create beautiful and intriguing worlds for us to explore at our own pace. Less than 18 months into this generation, and there’s already a wealth for us to choose from. Here’s our list of 10 of our favourite PS4 point and click games." - GameSpew

Broken Sword the Shadow of the Templars was the first point and click I ever played and it was on PlayStation, after that I instantly fell in love with those kinds of games, but i am limited in how many I actually played, because I don't like playing games on PC, the only adventure games I played a PC was broken sword 3&4 and it wasn't horrible, but I just don't like using mouse and keyboard.

I started playing Back to the Future and The Walking Dead season 1 & 2 an it reminded me how much I love adventure games. Those games where different from older P&C games but it still felt the same imo.

I really want more P&C games to show up on PlayStation 4, I'm really happy to see a game like life is strange and I hope other developers become interested in this style of video game storytelling.

Broken Sword still remains the master of the genre, I think! It's awesome that Broken Sword 5 made it onto Vita but it'd have been great to see it on PS4/home consoles. A HD collection of Broken Sword is what really needs to happen.

But check out the games on the list if you haven't played them already. All are amazing games - Murdered Soul Suspect is a great P&C even though it was pretty badly received. I genuinely think we'll see more and more of this type of game, thanks to the likes of Telltale leading the way.

An HD Collection of Broken Sword on PS4 would be glorious!

The only game on that list besides life is strange which I already own, is that Sherlock Holmes game. But I'm waiting for the price to come down on PSN to get it.

I'll give you a bubble because you recognize the greatness that is broken sword :)

I would love a Beneath a Steel Sky remake, it's not quite at the same level as the LucasArts point click but it's closer than any other game has got to matching the writing, humour and design.

Here’s a link to download the game, and good news it's freeware.

Overall great deals for everyone I guess.

For me personally though:

• "players who join PlayStation Plus during this year’s celebration can save up to 33% on select 12-month memberships."

• "players who are currently a PlayStation Plus Essential or Extra member, save 33% on the remainder of your membership when upgrading to PlayStation Plus Premium/Deluxe."

Ehhh ... Days of Play last until 11th. My subscription expires June, 14th.

I literally am laughing at me rn.

DivineHand1259h ago

If Sony allowed subscriptions to be sold by third party sellers like they did in the PS4 days, you would not have this problem.

VersusDMC9h ago

That's why everyone should get their subscriptions now as last years days of play was may 29 to 12th of june. Mine is expiring on the 7th so i will just get essential or possibly extra this year.

And you can atleast get 15 days of extra or premium at 33% off to try it out.

Profchaos6h ago

You used to be able to stack you Sub with these deals it would be good to do this as I'm not paying 214 for deluxe again

GhostScholar15m ago

This shows how game pass is eating ps plus lunch…..they’re lowering the price and the crazy thing is the premium tier is worse than the tier below it lol

Will see about getting my kid a cheaper PS Plus sub so he can backup and transfer his saves again. Really wish that was free ala XB.

Hopefully Destiny 2 The Final Shape comes with a free gear level upgrade like last year’s PS Plus offering. To bring you up to speed with all the content and everyone else. I still need to do a Nightfall Strike on Grandmaster difficulty, but ain’t got time to grind.

More like Days of Meh.... no specialized controllers or systems like in 2018 and 2019.

Eonjay12h ago(Edited 12h ago)

I mean it feels like you are forcing yourself to be negative here. Those are some really decent deals tbh. Also, everyone thought PS5 would go up to match Xbox so going down is a nice surprise too.

They did not confirm price increases. That is a lie.

If you really beleived what you are saying why do you have to keep making alts to say it?

None of those deals are of any great consequence to me. I was hoping they would bring back the special themed hardware after a 5 year break. They had it in 2018 and 19 and nothing for 20-24. 25 could have been the year to bring it back.

Boy, that's a real strange and specific goal post to have.

raWfodog9h ago(Edited 9h ago)

darthv728h ago

Both DoP 2018 and 19 had special themed PS4 slim. I have both and while they did not do them again in 20-24.... I was hoping they would bring it back in 25 with a special themed PS5 slim or even Pro.

This is their way to counter Nintendo Switch 2 launch week. I might get the discounted annual premium subs, but I think the game lineup is weak.

No one gives a crap about Starfield in 2025. I mean seriously, has anyone remembered this game even exists? Lmao

Alos8810h ago

They really aren't. Nothing in Starfield is nearly as iconic as anything from Fallout.
