Garage: Bad Dream Adventure

"Is there anything you feel uneasy about? It will be alright. Please trust Garage. You are certain to find whatever it is you desire." Garage, a rusted and bio mechanical manifestation of the human mind that explores repressed feelings, trauma, and a buried past. Taking place inside a bleak, surrealistic, and deeply immersive world, garage is a point and click adventure game with elements of resource management in a town where many are seemingly trapped. Your goal is to search for your shadow and inevitably, a way out. The art direction in Garage is fantastic, showcasing dull greys with metal and rust that coat the buildings with the few occasional colors exuding from advertisements and the dim glow of illuminating light bulbs that scatter the town. Its a lonely and strange feeling.

It's basically a fishing game. When I bought it, I thought it would be a mystery game or have an interesting story behind it (which it does, but it's not as well-developed as you'd think).

But if, like me, you're looking for mystery, solving puzzles, and things like that, this game isn't for you

Some of the best art I have seen in a game. All environments and character design perfectly compliment each other; even the map (which feels maze-like first time around) If you are new to point and click adventures this is is gonna be hard to top. Fish for "aquatic machines" for currency/side missions/etc while powering up your machine's Ego and Fuel meter using various parts acquired to complete your quest of piecing together your reality.
