I thoroughly recommend "The Unseen Fears : Outlive" and "Vermillion Watch : Fleshbound".

Very satisfying experiences - which I enjoyed immensely - in both cases thumbsup

And I am adding "Camelot : Wrath of the Green Knight". [I played the CE.]
A super game which I will undoubtedly play again at some time dance

The "Echoes" series varies in quality, but I agree they are good, overall. My two favorites are Citadels of Time and Revenge of the Witch. They both are "bog world" games, satisfyingly long, puzzle-heavy, engrossing, with no "action" or timed scenes. I have replayed both and know I will again.

I found "Dark Mysteries : The Soul Keeper" [CE] to be a really enjoyable experience. Quite a long game and with a good storyline grin

There were quite a lot of hidden object scenes but the graphics were good throughout and the hidden objects themselves not brain punishingly difficult to find wink

I recommend this game thumbsup

I am playing a game right now that has turned out to be quite the sleeper. The title is The Emerald Maiden: Symphony of Dreams. I am playing the Collector's Edition and am finding it thoroughly enjoyable. It has an interesting story, just the right amount of hidden object scenes for a HOPA (and they don't give you eyestrain), easy to middling puzzles that are fun and not frustrating, and overall it's just very well done. I haven't played the bonus yet so can't comment on that, but even if the bonus game stunk I already feel like it was a very good purchase for the price. The developer is Gogii Games - I always liked games with their name on them and am so glad that I finally got around to playing this. Great game. It makes me wonder how many more game gems are in my Purchase History just waiting to be discovered. yes

Edit: I have now finished the entire game including the bonus and this one is definitely among my favorites now. Overall, a really fun game!

Thanks for the info. I have been looking for a game just like that when I need to relieve stress. Will look it up! And I agree about Gogii Games. I always enjoy their products.

That's true! I have a boatload of BF games and decided I would go through all of them and play all of the series' that I have. My favorite by far has always been the Ravenhearst series, but I have just started with the Amarantine Voyage series and am in the second game.
