I would have put Syberia on this list, for sure. Some recent games like Quern, Zof, Eyes of Ara, The Room, and House of Da Vinci may all become classics in time as well.

How the heck did you forget Broken Sword - The Shadow of the Templars? Easily the best of them all!

[rave_david]

Beneath a Steel Sky would be in my top 10

[thisguyispeculiar]

Some ones I'll add to the list: Thimbleweed Park and Sam & Max Hit the Road.

The Titanic Adventure game was my fav. Js.

The creepy visuals, being on the Titanic late at night exploring the empty places while simultaneously being an immensely character driven game. The music. The freaky endings depending on whether you got off the ship and with what items. Classic.

So interesting, Indiana Jones and the fate of Atlantis is the first pointing click adventure game I remember really getting into and always held it in high regard. It’s very cool to see that It’s number one on this list. I was just hoping it would make the list, I was not expecting it to be number one. I love that game so much and have beaten it in all three ways that you can.

I would have mentioned Broken Sword, Day of the Tentacle, Beneath a Steel Sky and Riven wich is far superior than Myst...

[Zakk-kx]

How on earth are King's Quest VI, Day of the Tentacle, Thimbleweed Park, or some of the other classics like Laura Bow: The Dagger of Amon Ra not included?
That's sacrilege.
At least two of these were more deserving than some of the ones included here.

One of my recent favorites I never hear anything about is "Zork: Grand Inquisitor" (in Zork's 3D point and click series). It was so good ive been looking for a game like it ever since 😢. It was funny, had super clever, challenging puzzles integrated into the environment, good story, great characters and voice acting.. I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Cool that you had Gemini Rue at nr. 2. I enjoyed the game a lot, but felt like the second half dropped in quality. Still a cool and atmospheric game that all lovers of the genre should play. I think the developers of Discoy Elysium draw some inspiration from it.

What game is the one that appears at 0:08, just behind the title for the video?

[KevinSigman]

My favorites also include the Syberia games, Broken Sword, and Beneath a Steel Sky...but my top place for the best point-and-click adventure game I've ever played has to be The Longest Journey. I haven't played Dreamfall, the sequel, though. I'm glad he mentioned Blade Runner. I loved playing that game.

7 days a stranger

The excavation of Hob's Barrow

What remains of Edith Finch

[Omar_Muhammad]

The best for me is "12 minutes" and "there is no game wrong dimension"

[mannycalavera]

After years without finding a game that surprises me, i discovered the game Black Dahlia. And man, what a excellent game, it is just fantastic. I love it.

[Alucard]

not having Sanitarium on this list in the top 5 or top 3 is ridiculous.

[jamiehavk]

I think those logic puzzle games like myst and 7th guest should have their own genre, cant stand them compared to inventory based point n click advemtures

[dynamokeule]

you should have called the video: 8 Best Classic Point-and-Click Adventure Games of All Time without, at least, the 2 Best Classic Point-and-Click Adventure Games of All Time 1.Broken Sword: Shadow of the Templars, 2. Day of the Tentacle! I don't mean that in a toxic way, i know there are different opinions but i still have to wonder why these games don't appear here. At least there are a few titles i didn't even know yet, so thanks for the tips!

[Gilrezvideomaker]
