Aren't graphical adventure games and Point-and-click adventure games pretty much the same thing? Point and click adventure games are always graphical adventure games. And graphical adventure games are almost ALWAYS point and click adventure games -- except the early forms that still used a text parser. Since you don't see text parsers very often anymore, it's safe to say they're an artifact. The graphical adventure game article should mention text parsers in its history section. Separating PNC from other graphical adventures is messy enough to reduce the overall usefulness of two separate articles. The information is better off together. 65.95.157.232 ( talk) 03:11, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

Should this section not be rewritten as it reads from an American point of view instead of a mere factual basis. The whole article in general also has strong favoritism towards tell-tale games but completely leaves out the European projects such as

As an example of a point and click game it's a poor screenshot since it doesn't show a cursor and a hotspot, key features of a point and click game. -- Mika1h ( talk) 22:17, 27 October 2012 (UTC)
Two other projects that could be added to the "Kickstarter projects" section, both were funded successfully: 1. the remake of Shadowgate by Zojoi (already mentioned here), and 2. the hybrid adventure/RPG Hero-U by The Coles who designed the Quest for Glory series in the past. -- 82.170.113.123 ( talk) 15:33, 9 December 2012 (UTC)
