I think it’s fairly obvious by this point that I’m a point-and-click fan, and most of my readers seem to be too. We’re being spoiled for choice at the moment with both classic and more modern takes on the genre coming thick and fast.

Whether you’re a fan of the more classic, pixelated vibes, or you’re looking for something more sleek and soft, there’s a point-and-click game out there for you, but it can be hard to decide which one to play first.

Well, I’ve created this handy little 10 question quiz to help you decide. All of the possible results are fully released and available to purchase now through Steam, so there’s nothing stopping you from diving in!

Take the quiz:
