PayPalThe point and click adventure genre is not only alive and well, it's positively thriving. Rosewater is another one that looks fantastic and the demo got a big refresh. Coming with full Native Linux support from Grundislav Games, it joins a list of exciting upcoming or recently released adventure games like Return to Monkey Island, Foolish Mortals, Zid Journey and Lucy Dreaming.
Francisco González of Grundislav noted on Twitter the demo update that included hand-painted backgrounds and rotoscoped animations, along with voice-acting from a great sounding cast was now in the Linux (and macOS) demos. So time to give it a look if you haven't yet?

I'll skip the demo. Grundislav's past work is enough to guarantee a place on my wishlist.

Same her.
Although... if the demo is not part of the full game, I'd play it. Anybody knows?

I'm really looking forward for this game. An Adventure game with a Western setting? Heck, yeah!

That's an excellent comedy RPG right there, but I don't know if it fits the adventure game genre very well.
There are a few oldies like Gold Rush and Al Lowe's Freddy Pharkas: Frontier Pharmacist. Then there was 3 Skulls of the Toltecs, which I never played but remember seeing somewhere. I think that one might have had a couple of sequels as well. Oh and Al Emmo and the Lost Dutchman's Mine is slightly less ancient, but still very old.
