Visual novels are interactive stories. They focus mainly on character development and plot rather than action and gameplay mechanics.

Projects inspired by the 16 bit console generation from the late 80s and early 90s. Including the consoles Super Nintendo, Sega Genesis, and PC Engine/TurboGrafx-16.

A subgenre of the adventure game, point-and-click games typically involve interacting with background objects, talking to non-player characters, and using an item inventory to solve puzzles that allow the player to progress through the story.
