Love your modern point and click adventures? Paranormal point-and-click adventure Slender Threads from developer Blyts looks like a good one. From the same team as Kelvin and the Infamous Machine, it promises a much darker and more ambitious tale but still features plenty of humour.

Fully voiced too featuring a cast some might recognise from the likes of Hades, Telltale's The Walking Dead, Unicorn Overlord, and many more. More about it: "Haunted by a prescient nightmare, traveling salesman Harvey Green wanders the peculiar seaside town of Villa Ventana in a desperate attempt to stop a series of shocking deaths—before he's next."

The Prologue, that's still free on Steam, had a lot of positive user reviews.
