The Art of Point-and-Click Adventure Games by Steve Jarrett

4.0

I will never get tired of collections like these. It's such a nostalgia trip going back and looking at the artwork from the games I grew up playing. It's shocking how well they've aged in some regards, and hearing all the stories from the creators was heartwarming. They seemed to love the games just as much as the players did! Hearing about the technological limitations, stories about working on George Lucas' ranch, Steven Spielberg calling the developers wanting tips and how modern point and click games still have a wide appeal was all fascinating to me. As the zeitgeist of games and history evolve, I'm happy to add another book like this to my collection to help me remember the roots and think about the future.
