Point and click type games go back to classics such as Roberta Robert's King's Quest, Space Quest, Neverwinter Nights. The idea behind this sort of game is to let the mouse do most of the work or in the case of The Abbey looking for clues like in the Nintendo DS puzzle game Professor Layton and the Curious Village. A point and click adventure gives the user more of a open ended design and does not necessarily require quick action, but more of investigating areas and looking around your environments.
