[PC] Eric the Unready (1993)

How:
Got on GOG.
Pros:
- Nice puzzles overall, not too easy

- Robust parser

- Some nice memorable music

- Fun text and dialogue, akin to Terry Pratchett's humor

- Light-hearted and enjoyable text adventure

Cons:
- Quite short, each part is just a few screens and puzzles

- Inconsistent artwork

- Very rushed ending

Amusing example of the game's humor: this character replaces all the R's with W's, hence you must interact with the room by using the same rule... "look at dwawing"

How:
Got it on GOG together with the first game.
Pros:

- Adds some difficulty
Cons:
- Same as the previous game

Got all golden statues again!

Pros:

- Rewards exploration
- Cool companion system, didn't realize the others were human until the end of the game
Cons:
- A little too much on the poetic side for my tastes

Pros:

Cons:
- Terrible, awful controls
- Several gameplay and graphics glitches

- A bit too silly in the finale

[PC] Gabriel Knight 2: The Beast Within (1995)

How:
Heard of it since Amiga times, got on GOG during a Halloween sale.
Pros:
- Relaxing gameplay, nice mysterious atmosphere
- Good acting with authentic German speakers
- Some nice puzzles
Cons:
- Many puzzles are just a matter of going back and forth talking to people
- Overly slow cutscenes
- Extremely tedious arcade sequences
- No subtitles
- Some aggravating pixel hunting
- Handwritten letters have keyboard-specific typos, completely ruins immersion

Ending scene, with my tiny 679/679 score in the top-right.

[PC] Amerzone (1999)

How:

Pros:
- Relaxing gameplay

Somebody thought this is nice face modelling.

[TV] Bandersnatch (2018)

How:
Found it on Netflix.
Pros:
- Very good shooting, player choices fit smoothly in

Cons:
- A big conspiracy theory

The Bandersnatch game is a first-person blobber!

[PC] Call of Cthulhu: Prisoner of Ice (1995)

How:
Read about it on magazines, got on a Black Friday sale at GOG.
Pros:
- Nice tense atmosphere throughout the entire game
- Old school graphics, with pre-rendered 3D animations and drawn backgrounds
- Some nice cutscenes
Cons:
- I skipped a cutscene because I did actions in a different order
- The monsters are laughable
- Very easy puzzles
- Rushed-up unfolding of the story, weak characters

The Necronomicon!

I found the first part of the code via trial and error. This broke some parts of the game.

[PC] Anna's Quest (2015)

How:
Got it from a GOG winter sale.
Pros:
- Very nice graphics and smooth in-game animations
- Some nice cutscenes
- Quite lengthy with nice variations and quite adventurous feeling
- Overall good puzzles
Cons:
- Annoyingly naive main character
- Very bad and unfair ending towards Winfriede
- Several open threads are never explained (e.g. who's the fox?)

The chapter with Winfriede as a playing character is actually better than the rest of the game. Also, this explores the connection between magic and science!
