Hi, Marian! The problem with "Moontrain" is, there really isn't a clear explanation for some of the puzzles and actions that allow you to progress to the next location, so you have to put on your thinking cap ! The solutions to some of the puzzles are located in various rooms and you need to perform actions to reveal them. For instance, the code for a safe or the correct pattern for a puzzle is revealed by pulling a lever or turning on a light, and then you've got to remember where the safe and puzzle were, which is the opposite of most other games where you find a code and then use it when you find the puzzle. You also have to locate a certain number of inventory items until you are able to use that item. If you've played "A Tale For Anna" or "My Brother Rabbit", the collection of inventory items is the same. Having said all that, I am enjoying it because it's different and challenging. I have "Crossroads: Escaping The Dark" CE and "Connected Hearts: Fortune Play" CE waiting in the wings, and I also discovered that I used a Punch Card coupon last year to buy "Hidden Motives: The Diamond Rush" but haven't played it yet, so they should last me until the next sale !

Hi, oldbroad! Thanks! This is the second time I've restarted the game and was shocked when I actually finished it. Thanks for the heads up about the length of the bonus game. Since I never thought I would make it that far, I won't complain ! It may take a while for me to get myself unstuck. I played all 3 "Twin Mind" games and also enjoyed the first one the most. I wonder when we really enjoyed the first game in a series if our expectations for the sequels are a little too high . Susan

Last night I was stuck in the last puzzle of the bonus game of Twin Mind. I really wanted to finish the game but knew I should be able to solve the puzzle. I actually think I did but just not with their solution, but anyway, I got out of the game and tackled the puzzle today. I ended up frustrated and used the guide to complete the puzzle and game. I'm having some issues with my sound while using my headphones in my Windows 7 computer so I unplugged the headphones and turned on the sound bar and needed a game to test it out, so I started Halloween Chronicles: Cursed Family. The very first puzzle was the exact same puzzle as the one I had trouble with in Twin Mind except that game had symbols in the puzzle and in this game there are numbers. I thought that was pretty funny. I did get the puzzle in this game, however, I'm stuck in the second puzzle and am taking a break to post and read here. This is one of those puzzles where you repeat the same puzzle three times and I am on the third time, afraid to get out of it because I figure I'll have to re-do the first two parts. I don't know. I'll see when I go back to it. I am already enjoying this game more than the last game though anyway. Mad, I already had that first Camelot game downloaded but your enthusiasm for the games had me moving the game shortcut to my desktop (meaning I moved it into the more immediate line-up), though I haven't started it yet. I actually have a whole lot of games in that line-up. Shortcuts for other games that are downloaded are kept in a folder on my desktop. EDIT: Hah! Got the puzzle right away after taking my break .

LOL I do the same thing. OK, don't laugh: I have gone back and played the first Mystery Case Files: Huntsville, Madame Fate, Prime Suspects. Kind of brain-numbing they are, but maybe that's what I needed. I might just continue through all the MCF series. (Fate's Carnival is still my #1 favorite)

Hi, oldbroad! You're weren't kidding when you said the Bonus Chapter of "Moontrain" was short ! As I was patting myself on the back for completing the pipes puzzle, "The End" popped up on the screen and that was that! Now I can move onto something else. I have "Connected Hearts: Fortune Play" CE and "Crossroads: Escaping The Dark" CE waiting in the wings, so I'll flip a coin to see which one I play first. Susan

Hi, oldbroad! Thanks! I was beginning to think I'd never finish it but, despite the glitches, it really was a fun game! Since I beta-tested "Crossroads: Escaping the Dark" several months ago and have been waiting for it to be released ever since, I think I'll tackle that one first ! I'm now waiting for the next 65% off or BOGO sale to pick up a few more games. Susan
