Yup! And it's 18 places below...

#43: Machinarium

This is my favorite point and click adventure game that still fits the 'true' definition of a point and click adventure. A kind of magnum opus hybrid right before the industry was shaken up.

The main takeaway from this aside from the objectively beautiful art and creative world of gearpunk robots is the absolute fairness of the puzzles. There was exactly one puzzle that felt too difficult about 80% of the way through, but I'll grant one pass. If I were looking for that level of challenge I would have been excited it was there.

It also shares the great of honor of being in the same category as Tomba! by having your character eat items to put them into your inventory.

I still think that Broken Age is probably the best trial run of old-school adventure games, but Machinarium should be the dessert or final encore. Any point & click adventure better than this (at least in my experience) will have to ride on the coattails of an extremely strong narrative on top of decent gameplay or puzzles- not to say this one's story is weak at all.

You did indeed stab me in the back. However, you are only level one, whilst I am level 50. That means I should remain uninjured.
