The tragedy takes place at the exhibition of famous gallery owner Andre Dubois.

Detective Gallo

In 2018, this good game was released, whose creators were inspired by the cartoons of Walt Disney.

Darkestville Castle

Darkestville Castle, a very beautifully designed game that is a pleasure to watch and play. But the black humor here also keeps the developers and players on their toes. The protagonist of this quest, a demon named Sid, really wants to hurt the citizens of Darkestville, and does not miss even the smallest opportunity to cause trouble to people. But the demon loser, either poorly educated or so the stars aligned, but many of his antics bring joy and benefit to the people of the town.

The Talos Principle

Now he will have to solve about 120 interesting puzzles, in which you have to learn how to control lasers, distract flying drones and perform certain manipulations with time. Each puzzle can be solved in several ways. Throughout the game, the cyborg actively communicates with his developer and other robots.

Black Mirror

Most likely, the developers were inspired by the mystical works of Edgar Allan Lovecraft. An atmosphere of gloom, horror and panic is created, which is actively traced throughout the game. The storyline is 1926, David Gordon returns to Scotland, to his parents' home after his father committed suicide. Throughout his life, he has avoided the ancestral nest, where he has always been haunted by ghosts, vetting and nightmares.
