** ''Project Fedora'' (working title) (2013)

With the 2010 revival of the "true" Adventure Game market, a number of nominal {{Webcomic}} artists and bloggers have been developing interactive, serialized adventure games released in daily doses over the Internet. These games usually have a loose plot moderated by their artist, but readers are encouraged to decide what happens next "turn" by writing suggestions in a specific comic format reminiscent of interactive fiction games. Live interaction with the writer/artist/moderator results in extinction of the dreaded [[ICantUseTheseThingsTogether "You can't use those two objects together"]] response (except when it's clearly meant to be a parody of the trope).

The genre has had a decent revival on the Nintendo DS starting with the ports of the ''VisualNovel/AceAttorney'' series, as its touchscreen allows for an ideal point-and-click interface, and the fanbase includes many older players who favour puzzle and problem-solving games. As well, smaller companies like Daedalic, Deck13, Future Games, The Adventure Company and TelltaleGames have done well in specializing in adventure games; indeed, the latter is known for their successful rehashings of external franchises (revitalizing the ''VideoGame/SamAndMaxFreelancePolice'' franchise, beginning a new ''VideoGame/MonkeyIsland'' series, and recently having a smash-hit with ''VideoGame/TheWalkingDead''), while the former is famed for their ingenious original games. And there is, of course, the whole Independent Adventure Games scene where small-time developers (often one-man teams) are able to keep themselves running by distributing their games to cult-followings.
