The Adventuress: Another Gaming Blog
A gaming blog focusing primarily on adventure games, which many believe to be a dying art but which I believe are still awesome and still affect even the most shoot-em-up games there are. I cover nostalgic games from the golden age of adventure gaming, new adventure games that help keep the genre alive, obscure European games because adventure gaming is alive and kicking in Europe, and occasionally do a Top 10ish list. Come in! Fun times!

Review: To the Moon
Well, friends, it's time to dust off this journal again. My major creative projects of the last few months are pretty much finished and as per tradition I'm now plagued with a terrible head cold. Since I was quarantined and feeling sorry for my poor body, I decided to splurge and buy a new game from Steam to while away the sickly hours. I ended up settling on "To The Moon", an indie game from Free Bird Games that if nothing else looked intriguing enough for $10.
I'll just say it now: you have to play this game.

Yesterday
Wow, it's....been quite a while. I got really busy with theatre shows and writing that I almost forgot about my very nerdy blog. Well, that and I've almost had no time for gaming, much less finding time for obscure adventure games. Recently though Pendulo Studios, the creators of Runaway (which I haven't played yet), released a brand new original adventure game Yesterday.

Puzzle Agent 2
There are those big, epic adventure games that try carefully to integrate their puzzles into the storyline so that they don't really seem like puzzles at all. And then there's Puzzle Agent 2, a game that pretty much makes no secret that it's there solely for the puzzles and only the puzzles. And luckily it's pretty damn entertaining.

Video Review: The Last Express
While I do love to update this blog with written entries, I'm branching out a bit with my videos and have started to talk about adventure games with my friend Errol. And our first review is of one of my favourite games of all time: the Last Express! It's less a review and more a retrospective, but it was tons of fun to do. Enjoy!

Whitless Letters to- Zelda
It's my most topical letter yet! Yes, technically I've already covered the Zelda universe, but this one was dying to be talked about:

Dracula: Origins
Things have been pretty busy on my end but I'm back and eager to talk about games again! And I'm actually starting off with a game that I'm honestly a little torn about: Dracula Origin. I've actually started to write a post about it four times now, each time stopping about midway and deleting it altogether.
