The Third Courier
Point & ClickA subgenre of the adventure game, point-and-click games typically involve interacting with background objects, talking to non-player characters, and using an item inventory to solve puzzles that allow the player to progress through the story. Point games The Art of Point-and-Click Adventure Games is Bitmap’s first volume thus far dedicated to a specific type of game. The book traces the arc of the point-and-click genre from its early days as a graphical advancement of text adventures to its meteoric ascendance in the late 80s and early 90s, and from its waning popularity in the 2000s to its recent resurgence in remastered editions and new-retro titles. With hundreds of full-color images and dozens of interviews with developers and artists, it’s a massive, comprehensive chronicle that adds a great deal of historical depth to Bitmap’s catalog.

Edmond Tran's Favourite Games of 2023
This colorful adventure title takes place in and around a typical suburban house, the night before a little girl’s birthday party. You control a friendly sentient stuffed bear (named Fatty, of course) in a quest to bake a birthday cake before she wakes up. The animation, graphics, and sound are very rich for a game from 1992, and it has aged surprisingly well. My kids and I have played this game through its entirety three times now; a single play-through takes about an hour or two. Aside from the typical find-an-object and complete-a-puzzle gameplay, Fatty Bear presents several nonintrusive educational opportunities along the way. Yal If your kids are fans of nature and the ocean, look no further than EcoQuest, which blends a pseudo-mythological story of a whale king named Cetus with a cautionary tale about man’s impact on the earth’s ecosystem. The game provides just the right balance of science, education, storytelling, and adventure that kids will love, while providing the classic Sierra point-and-click interface that will (likely) please a 30-something mom or dad. Like other Sierra titles on this list, you’ll have to get it on eBay or resort to less legally clear-cut means if you want to get your EcoQuest fix.

Related The above works I can get the points of the track that should be displaying on the screen but now I need to convert them so they draw in 'big' on the screen. For instance if the map was clipped at 2000,100 and there was a point here then that point should be drawn at 0,100 on the screen. So I need to convert those first coordinates to their correct location on the screen.
