This week on Quest Quest, @bvigeant.bsky.social and I discuss The Drifter, a gritty 2025 adventure from Australian developers Powerhoof (@barney.powerhoof.com and @dave.powerhoof.com)! Stick around as we wax philosophical about death in the adventure game genre.

Just beat @dave.powerhoof.com and @barney.powerhoof.com’s game, THE DRIFTER, and am ridiculously impressed. Stellar writing, gorgeous art, and hands down the most drama and tension I’ve ever experienced in a point ‘n’ click. Super inspiring.
