In
Death Trap 2 you are trapped in a house and your mission is to use your
point'n'click skills to escape. Inconveniently though the house is full of "death traps" which makes things a bit more tricky (and not really suitable for children). On the whole the game looks great, but it's let down slightly by the huge green arrows everywhere. It's a bit of grown-up Halloween fun though [

In
Master Of Hobby you are trapped in a very messy bedroom, where the objects you find include a handheld computer game console and a box of tissues. Which is why I'd call this
point'n'click game, "escape the teenage boy's bedroom" (you know what I'm saying), rather than "Master Of Hobby", which is a translation of the original Japanese title [

It's taken me some time to post
Enigma In The Yellow Rooms, despite it being a rather good
point'n'click game, influenced by
MOTAS, as there have been a few issues with availability. First the bandwidth on the original site was exceeded, and over the last few days I just couldn't get the flash file to load, but now the 7th room has been added it all seems to be working fine again. The game is like a chain of room escaping games, the idea being you escape one room to get into the next, yellow-themed, room. Currently there are seven to complete, but rooms are still being added. You can keep up with the additions, and other game news, at the
official EitYR homepage [

There are a series of puzzling rooms to find your way through in
The Roomz. There is a little bit of
point'n'click, but you'll mainly need your puzzle brain to find the passwords to get from room to room [

You may remember getting carelessly stuck in a museum
once or twice before if you play a lot of
point'n'click games (will you never learn?), hence it's necessary to insert "GH" into the title of
The (GH) Museum, so that you know exactly which museum you're escaping this time (it's
Games Handbook's, hence the "GH"). In this one you have to fix a variety things in the museum that a group of pesky kids has messed up (ooo - scooby doo moment) before you can escape [

Sorry I've been out of action for the last few days, I've been stuck in bed with a really bad cold (I'm not sure how widespread this is, but if you work in London it's the "one that's going around" at the moment - nasty) .
Anyway, I see that
8 Days the new "live action"
point'n'click game from
Anode Et Cathode has been released (the first part at least). If you haven't already, I suggest you
sign-up asap and get involved [

So the news on the grapevine is that the new
Sony Bravia Ad (remember the
bouncing balls?) is out tomorrow (at 20:45GMT my sources tell me, which makes me guess the UK is getting it first, they didn't mention a channel, but I'm going to go out on a limb and say
ITV1 is the spot to watch). The
behind the scenes video link I got sent gives you a flavour of what might be involved, but if you check
youtube you can find clips that are
a bit more revealing. The only question remaining is, after it airs tomorrow, where will you be able to see it first? The
offical site, or
youtube?
I've been a bit slow on this one, but
episode 3 of CDX is out now. It's still only for UK players though, so apologies to everyone else - I know this is a big pain in the posterior [

I know that you
Cleudo Addicts know this already, but just a quick reminder in case you have been living under a stone for these last few weeks - the
final episode of this great
point'n'click game is available now. The investigation ends on 22nd October, with the killer being unmasked on the 25th. Good luck everyone.
Mechenosets is a short and simple
point'n'click room escaper. Once you escape the room you can watch a clip from the Russian film that the game is promoting - although I don't recommend this last bit for the kids
