Phoenix Springs
Iris Doro is a reporter searching for her brother who finds an oasis in the desert. Neo noir things ensue, including a chilling soundtrack, a striking lithographic art-style, and a pervasive sense of menace. The modern point-and-click adventure game focuses on concepts instead of items, encouraging you to chain them together to make new discoveries instead of fumbling over your inventory in search of the one thing needed to progress. I don’t always get pulled in by the genre but Phoenix Springs has my number.
