I love the aesthetic of 90s era point-and-click adventure games that use pre-rendered 3D graphics. What are the quintessential games in this style? I know of Myst, Drowned God, and the Journeyman Project. Anything else?

Funny, Syberia was the first thing that came to mind. Didn't know Amerzone was related until trying to remember the fucking name and finding the wiki page

Thanks for the recs

I'm actually only a zoomer who is trying to get started with these kinds of games so I don't have much experience with them. The closest games I've played to this style are The Room, The Witness, and Infra. I watched the Mind's Eye movies not too long ago and they got me really interested in old 3D graphics.

>>	Anonymous Mon Sep 19 02:12:04 2022 No.9268462 >>9268295 Schizm and Traitor's Gate are two obscure ones. Traitor's Gate is a bit of a stealth game, you break into the Tower of London to steal the crown jewels. It's point and click Myst gameplay but you have to avoid security guards

>>	Anonymous Mon Sep 19 02:59:24 2022 No.9268571 any good fairly easy entry points for adventure games like this? I've only played Myst 3 for a few hours before i got filtered by a puzzle. figured out most of the stuff in the first hub area, then got walled when i got sent to a new place.

Both Cyberias, Creature Shock, Titanic and Redjack (pictured) by Cyberflix. MC in Discworld Noir is polygonal, but everything else is prerendered, as is he himself in most of the cutscenes.

OP, I think you'd get a kick out of Juggernaut on the PS1. It's this really bizarre adventure game where you travel through your girlfriends mind to exorcise a demon from it.

You should also check out Garage: Bad Dream Adventure.
