I’m trying to find out if there is an industry-standard term for the genre of games where you randomly click around to figure out what to do yet. That is, what category are games like Samorost, Hapland, Tetsuo, and such?
Finding games like Mystery PI or Mystery Case Files is simple enough, just do a search for HOG (Hidden Object Games)
or Seek and Find Games
, or to find games like DOOM you search for (First Pearson) Shooter
, but what about these, how do you find these without a standard term? Are they called random-click
? click-around
? manualless
? unscripted
? Something else?
