Point-and-click adventure games

Same folks also remastered Full Throttle and Grim Fandango, and both have been phenomenal. All of these have the option to play with the original graphics too.

I'm hoping more remasters are on the way.

I can't remember which I bought last, either the Nintendo DS or the PS3 (the latter I use now for playing Blu-rays and some MOD DVDs which are a bit noisy when playing in the multi-region player). Haven't bought any games machines (or PC games) since then. I know of the PSN, but until late last week, had never heard of Steam.

I'd forgot all about Full Throttle and Grim Fandango. I remember playing some of each. Enjoyed the latter moreso. Thanks for the reminder. Have nostalgic thoughts (positive memories) about the majority of the point-and-click adventure games I played.

I can't remember the exact name of the series, but there was a PC series with 'Police' in the title. There could have been as many as four games in the series. I could never play it properly. Either there was a bug in the one game I played, or it was too tricky to understand.

Probably Sierra's Police Quest series. I remember seeing ads for it, but I never played it.

Thanks for your help. I think that's the series I was thinking of. Would like to see it remastered.

Can't remember how I came across these PC point-and-click adventure games last month (might have been when looking at an actor's IMDb filmography). Does anyone here remember:

Santa Fe Mysteries: The Elk Moon Murders
and Santa Fe Mysteries: Sacred Ground?

Looks like they were released in the mid to late-nineties.
