I spent a lot of time in my childhood with no money for games. I had a computer that could play older games, which is how I played Deus Ex around 2010. But when I wasn't playing Half-Life, or emulating ps1 or n64 games, I played those point-and-click escape-the-room puzzle flash games. My favorites are the ones by Neutral. I replay them all every year at Christmas, now with Flashpoint. 10/10, would recommend. I also like the Homestar Runner flash adventure games. Finally, those crappy find the hidden object games with names like Amazing Tales 2: the Secrets of Stony Brook, or Ghost Story 8: This One's the Same as the Previous 7. Whenever I've had a bad day, I make myself a drink and bust one of those out, put on a podcast, and enjoy the awful story, art, and voice acting while I solve really simple puzzles.
