I played the first Cate West game years ago when my brother bought it for me on disc. I guess that's why I purchased the 2nd game. I like having all the games in a series.

And, yes. I hadn't been buying casual games that much back then and not downloads. When I did start, I had to play catch up on some things, tried to keep up with new releases, and bought old games when they were mentioned in the forum here and brought to my attention.

I don't replay a lot of casual games but I seem to remember liking the Dream Chronicle games. Mostly, I want to replay them to satisfy some nostalgia I am feeling.

Enjoy Mad! I bought those Shaolin Mystery games 3 years ago, I believe, based on information from Jenny100. They're downloaded and ready to play smile.

So, back to my story about the two Vermillion Watch games. After I downloaded and tried the demo of "Parisian Pursuit" I continued in that game until I finally finished it today. Now I have gone back to the "Moorgate Accord." If my (great) experience with Parisian is any indicator, I fully expect to really enjoy Moorgate.

Why did I enjoy Parisian you ask? First, any of you who have seen me praise games, always find a remark about Story. I still believe a coherent story makes or breaks a game. This one succeed in that regard. I have also ranted about mazes, and yes - this game has a maze, but it nicely hints you through without a lot of hair loss. think And the length: I hate a game that takes just a few hours, then Bam - you're done. This one is satisfyingly long. Intro, three major chapters that you can play in any order, a wrap-up, and a decent bonus chapter. All plusses. thumbsup

Bye for now; off to deal with the villains who violated the Moorgate Accord. wave2

Are there more in the series, other than these two?

@oldbroad - yes they are different. They managed to dish up some puzzles I haven't seen before, and the hidden object scenes are good quality.
They are a creative lot !

They are having a buy-one get-one sale. I made the mistake before, of not 'adding to my cart' but buying one and expecting to buy the second for no cost. Please help me understand how to do it correctly.

You put both items in your cart and at the bottom you put the coupon code (for this sale it appears to be the word CANDY.) After you do that the prices in your cart should change. Then you can hit buy.

That's it. Tally Ho, just make sure you put both games into the shopping cart and then apply the coupon code, which should take it down to the price of one game rather than two.

What am I missing? I don't have a shopping cart; I only have the play now (demo) or buy now buttons.

First click on Buy Now for the first game. This starts your cart. . Then close the window and click on Buy Now for the other game. Both should then be in your cart. Then enter the discount code.

When you have the first game showing in your cart, click on "continue shoping".
Find your second game (you can search for it) click "buy" on that and it will then also appear in your cart.
Next enter the "offer code" (in the box below the two games) and click on "apply".
That should adjust the total price you will be charged for your two games.
And you are now ready to actually buy 😑

Thank you Sparkle!! That worked. First game = game credits; second game $0.00; third game Full price; fourth game $0.00. So it's like four for the price of one (sort of)

Well I'm going to be playing my Shaolin game for quite some time as there are plenty of hidden object screens - but, surprisingly, I am really enjoying it.

[Probably because it has a nice story yes]
