The traditional Spanish point and click adventure game studio running a promo know for a bundle of all of their point & click adventures (minus “Yesterday Origins”), let’s look some at the titles which need some tweaking to get them working on your newest OS.
Let’s start with “Runaway: A Road Adventure” & “Runaway: The Dream Of The Turtle” .
Simply enable Low-Res graphics mode, as the default Hi-Res mode does display the games only in B&W.
Another interesting contender is “Yesterday“, which actually has been censored for the digital storefront releases of Steam and GoG, in contrast to the original DVD 2012 release which came uncensored when originally hitting the shelves, which unfortunately also introduced some sound bug.
Luckily, the almost 1 Gig that had been removed can be patched back in, more info about this can be found in the archived article of Steams Play Gamers.
Last but not least, beware of fail positives for the “Plugins” folder of “Yesterday Origins“.
For me it was Comodo Internet Security 2025 Premium falsely reporting the 2 files “MAU.DLL” and “dbdata.exe” from the game’s subfolder “YesterdayOrigins_Data\Plugins” as malware.
When I restored them from Quarantine and added them to the excluded files list, the game ran flawlessly!
