About
A Pulp Adventure Thriller from the minds that brought you Peridium and Crawl.
An engrossing roller-coaster of a story- Drawing on King, Crichton and Carpenter, with a dash of 70s Aussie grindhouse.
Point 'n Click or Controller- Unique twin-stick controls make The Drifter as comfy to play on the couch as at your PC.
Bursting with raw crunchy pixel art and high-impact animation.
Professionally voice acted, with a brooding dark-synth cinematic score.
Mick Carter's been drifting a while now- moving from job to job, never staying one place long. Jumping a box-car to his old home town, he witnesses a violent murder, is pursued by hi-tech soldiers, thrown in a reservoir and drowned.
And that's just the start of Mick's problems.
His consciousness ripped away, thrust back into his own body seconds before his death...
Framed for the killing he witnessed, tormented by his own past, and haunted by the feeling that something followed him back from the other side...
Follow Mick as he's sucked headfirst into a lunatic web of shadowy corporations, murder, and the thousand-year obsession of a madman.
The Drifter is our take on a classic 2d point and click adventure, with the brake-lines cut. The focus is on fast-paced storytelling, with puzzle-solving being the glue that ties it together. Mick's a practical guy, and so puzzles are down-to-earth too, designed to be unobtrusive, and give an investigative feel.
We're keeping the pacing quick and lean, you'll never be wandering around lost or confused- Mick is propelled through the story at a good clip, from one situation to another, with barely a moment to catch his breath. One minute you'll be crafting a Molotov cocktail from a bottle of over-proof rum, the next interrogating a crooked neurosurgeon before swinging from a high-rise window by a fraying extension lead.
Sums Steam only; GOG, Nintendo publish no volume signal, so the true total is higher by an unknown amount.

gute Game!
Best game I've finished in a long while and I rarely finish games. Some of the solutions are a little out there but if you keep trying you'll get it.

Great experience all around! I especially enjoyed the art and storytelling. A very well-rounded P&C adventure game.
♥
As a long time fan of classic point & click adventures like Monkey Island or Beneath a Steel Sky, I *loved* this. The story is gripping, the puzzles are spot on, and the voice acting is great. Just be aware that it's very Australian in the amount of swearing in it, and it can be pretty gruesome at points. Highly recommended.
As a fan of point-n-click puzzle games, this is fantastic. My favorite modern one since Thimbleweed Park. Some of the speed based puzzles are a little annoying, but once you figure out the solution it goes quick. The voice acting is great, the story is interesting, and other than some of the dialogue dragging it's just great. If you like these kinds of games, it is worth it. Very fun and a great Carpenter vibe.
Incredible storytelling, hits a lot of horror and noir notes that were really well played out. Lots of twists and a great mystery to uncover, would totally recommend.
Game has a great story. It all wrapped up nicely and left me fufilled. Point and click was never my thing but I'm going to search out more with how much fun this was.
