7. I think it was the Zither ??

Thanks, BET 👍

Believe it or not, I haven't played The Tree of Might yet. I have kind of been saving it so that I have an unplayed Five BN game to look forward to. But I will probably be playing it some time this year.

And Tally Ho, yes, you are certainly in a part of the country where you will be getting some of that wildfire smoke from Canada. A good time to stay indoors if you are able to do so.

Have a great evening Boomers. The weekend will be here tomorrow.

Oh, you think I look smug... Wait till you meet mom and dad!!

Very good package oldbroad, thank you. What a deal!

** Today's launch has been scrubbed. Weather conditions were not looking good. Now scheduled for July 24th 6:45 pm EST

Starship Live

I'm wondering if somebody else also mention Obscure Legends. I do have it installed waiting to be played. I'm glad you are enjoying it!

Thanks, BET

Thanks Marian!

What I will write below is very much not set in stone. I often veer away from it depending on the game, developer, or just if I’m antsy to buy a game.

My pricing structure is something like this:

Point and Click Adventures with voice acting and regular graphics (not pixels) - $15.00 or less is what I try to go for.
Point and Click Adventures with Pixel graphics and no voices (where there is a lot of conversation) - $10.00 and under depending on the game.
Games that are probably going to make me sea sick - $10.00 and under – maybe closer to $5.00 these days but depends on the game.

Length only depends if every review I look at says the game is only an hour long and the cost is more than $3.00 let’s say. I take longer than most people to play games. My gaming time is usually about double what flotsam’s is.
A good length game used to be around 15+ hours I guess, but these days I’ll settle for as low as 8-10.

I don’t worry about “replayability” as I believe all games can be replayed. I don’t care about making different choices or reaching different endings. I prefer not to do either of those things actually. However, no matter how much I like a game, I usually don’t want to replay it for close to 10 years anyway it seems.

To answer Grefuss’s question, I want to say that I once paid around $60.00 for a used game, possibly Grim Fandango, but I honestly can’t be sure of this memory at all. I do know that I used to pay a lot more for games in the past than I care to pay now.

I'll agree with Mikael regarding "open-ended" games. I prefer to have an ending of some sort and if there is no ending and I'm aware of that, I will usually wait. I may end up getting the game anyway after a while but do it with that knowledge in my mind.

There was also a time when I bought a rack that holds 28 single CD cases and 2 double CD cases and I thought that I would NEVER have enough games to fill it. HA! What a joke that turned out to be!

Way to close
