Gobliiins Collection brings a piece of gaming history to modern platforms—one that every point-and-click enthusiast should experience. It is just unfortunate that the collection suffers from a number of minor issues that can occasionally detract from the overall experience. The extras included are simply too limited and left me wanting more. So, should you avoid this collection? Not really. Despite its shortcomings, you are still getting five games that each offer around ten hours of gameplay for roughly 25 euros or dollars. Just keep in mind that it is not always the smoothest ride.
If you’re looking for a simple, short, but enjoyable point-and-click adventure, Shadows of the Afterland is worth a look. The game features some strong environments and appealing visuals, but its storytelling lacks depth and the puzzles are fairly straightforward. Still, if you have four to five spare hours and are looking for a modestly priced experience, it offers a decent amount of fun.
Musashi vs. Cthulhu is a challenging and fun action game. The controls are very responsive, and the game provides leaderboards to showcase your skills. If played in short bursts, it can offer a few enjoyable hours, but keep in mind that it doesn't have much depth.
