If you haven’t played the Life is Strange series I would recommend trying it. Not technically a classic adventure game though. Episode 1 is now FREE on Steam, the rest on sale:

Antventor is also on sale:

Beard in the mirror (see link above) is a solid game. Good humour, good puzzles and good graphics. Very traditional. Also fairly long.

Also seems to have a nice real-life backstory: "It’s a labor of love from a husband-and-wife team from two different worlds (she’s a Sierra fangirl, and he’s a LucasArts diehard) who have been working on it together since before they even started dating. "

and it shows. the ui is sierra style, but the dialogs are lucas style (no portraits, text on top of the heads, and dialog trees)

On Gog there is this adventure called “Thimbleweed Park” on sale (incredible 40% discount). Sounds like a funny game. Maybe I’ll buy it - would someone recommend it?
