This is an unfinished series of mockups for retro style point-and-click adventures. These are proof of concept pieces for a video game series that adapt pieces of literature into an interactive and immersive experiences. I believe that there is something special about the medium of video games when it comes to adaptation, as it shares elements of literature and film that allow the audience to take their time with the worlds while also seeing it all first hand. The first in the series is various scenes from the book, "The Hobbit." I decided to start with this not only because it's my favorite book. I followed up with Bram Stoker's, "Dracula." These books not only hold a significant place in the canon of classical literature, but also because the components of the stories translate very smoothly to adventure games of the 1990s.
