Derrick Das Adventure is a German
point'n'click game that features Derrick, a detective who wears a shabby raincoat. I haven't worked out anymore than that as a). I don't know enough German, b). I'm too busy perfecting the silly dance I've invented to do to the weird whistling soundtrack which I just love. Right, I'm off to throw some weird shapes around the Lazylaces office [

The idea of
Riddle School is to
point'n'click your way out of the school before the soundtrack makes your ears bleed. If you are having a relaxing Sunday you may want to turn the volume down before playing [

I'm assuming that
Back From Emptiness is a
point'n'click game in the "escape the room" style. I say assume, as about all there is to see at first glance is a locked door and a window, other than that all there appears to be is a room full of emptiness. With some frantic clicking I have found a discarded match and part of a window blind, but boy is it hard to find anything. Good luck [

Mole In One is a cute game, with a cute name, even if, surely, playing golf with moles has to violate all sorts of animal rights. Moving on from thinking about bashing small creatures over the head with a golf club though it has a lovely bird song soundtrack which is sure to chill you out. Collect all the golf balls on each level then go for the flag. Damn tricky to master, but very satisfying when you get going [

Danaq is another one of those online puzzle thingies, but rather than having to play around with changing URLs it's all done in a nice neat flash file. Also I managed to get quite far without trying very hard which means it's probably ideal for a Sunday when you don't want to tax your brain too much [

Coming back to the UK I've found the whole country has gone
World Cup crazy (how many TV programs?) and it doesn't even start until Friday. But having said that I will be watching the first England game on Saturday, and shall probably be glued to the TV for sometime to come. Anyway,
Football Kicker is likely to be the first of many football related games that will be submitted to me over the coming weeks so get practising in this simple game of "keepy uppie". Alledgedly there are even streakers in it (I didn't see any) so keep your eyes peeled and possibly cover the kids' eyes [

The Adventures Of Mr. Tumpkins features that old
point'n'click storyline of having your head changed into a pumpkin, and then having to cut yourself a mouth and finding a way to get your old head back. Is there no originality anymore? Seriously though, this is a rather nice little game [

I'm not sure if "game" is the right category for
Echogenesis, but there's definately some
point'n'click in there, and quite frankly with it's pretty graphics, and blissed out music, it's exactly what I need today. Jet lag was playing with my mind and body last night so I only got an hour of sleep, and what with starting back at work today (I've already commuted in and I'm at my desk) I don't think I can handle anything more stressful [

Invasion Of The Space Invaders From Outer Space is the new game from the
creator of
Darkness and
Tomb Of Doom, but this one is a complete departure from the styles of the other games. Here you drag and drop items into a flyer toaster!
You are an alien in a weird disguise on an Earthling-kidnapping spree! Collect as many earthlings as you can. Giant robots, exploding cows, superheroes and psychic toasters! This game has got 'em all! The narrative kicks in after you get familiar with the game mechanics and events will begin to occur in real-time. Survive until the end to unlock the bonus!

Maui Wowee is a nice laid back arcade game with a summery soundtrack for those long hot summer nights. And boy is it hot here. Air con is my friend [

If you like your
point'n'click games with a large side order of weirdness then
Somnium Orbis is for you. As you scratch your head and say "what the... ?" though, there are some great graphics to look at, and sound is none too bad either [

Well most of you seem to have sent
Chronon to me already, so I suspect most of you have played this
point'n'clicker, but for the rest of you this is a tricky little number from the makers of the
grow series. Enjoy. Right, I'm off for drinks in
Arlington... [
