Sierra introduced a fully point-and-click interface to its adventures with King's Quest V: Absence Makes the Heart Go Yonder!. Lucasfilm Games later released other hits, like Zak McKracken and the Alien Mindbenders, Indiana Jones And The Last Crusade, The Secret of Monkey Island, and many others. The first point-and-click adventure game was probably Deja Vu: A Nightmare Comes True!! for the Macintosh, but the title that made the genre famous was Lucasfilm's Maniac Mansion, thanks to Ron Gilbert and the SCUMM engine. In fact, unlike old-school adventures based on text-parser, you mostly perform actions using your mouse. Point-and-click adventures are particular types of adventures, games that rely on narrative and puzzles they are played with a mouse. Best point-and-click games on GamesNostalgia
