Well, I've sidelined the Atlantis game for the moment - just wasn't enjoying all the gadgety stuff sad
[Left it installed, though.]


But I AM enjoying one of the Grim Tales games I own but have never played before .... "The White Lady CE" thumbsup

EDIT :
Yes !! Liking this Grim one MUCH more yay

I am happy to hear that you like the game, Mad!

I am currently playing Magic City Detective: Secret Desire CE. It is a nice long game.

I can't remember about the "gadgety stuff" in the Atlantis game Mad, but I can say that I am not enjoying the Camelot game nearly as much as you did, unfortunately. I'm glad the Grim game is going better for you though!

I haven't bought any of the Magic City Detective series because of my Domini video issue. Someday I should test a game out again to see if something may have changed as sometimes mysteriously happens wink.

Oh, I'm sorry you aren't enjoying the Camelot game as much as I did, oldbroad.
Another case of not everyone liking the same thing, eh ?? frown

Oldbroad, trying out the Domini games in future would be a good idea. Who knows? Something might have changed such as a video card driver update, their programming, etc. Thus far I have not had any technical issues with their games, but you aren't the only one who is having problems with their games now.

Hello everybody! I have been replaying the Ravenhearst series. I like the first 3 best as they are mainly hidden object games with a story. Less complicated than the later games. I also replayed Mystery Case Files The Thirteenth Skull. It's really a fun game and I love the characters to talk to, especially Cooter and Charlotte! So funny! I have played this game over and over through the years and never tire of it! thumbsup wave

Everybody seems to like MCF: The 13th Skull and I can't even remember it, so I just watched a game trailer of it and just a scene or two looked familiar. Maybe I will put it in line for a replay.

Nice to see you here, Marlene! I am definitely due for a replay of 13th Skull. I remember a lot of humor in the game but many of the details for me are fuzzy now too, oldbroad. wave

Just finished Dark Parables: The Swan Princess and the Dire Tree CE. Never played it before and was reminded of its existence in my Purchase History by 8dognight having mentioned it. A nice long game and very well done.

Now I have started Ominous Tales: The Forsaken Isle and I am quite liking what I have played so far.

Would that be another title than those two I’ve mentioned, Marian ??

(I lose track of what’s new and what’s not redface )

I believe Dual Disposition is the latest one Mad, while The White Lady is in the middle of the series.

I am currently playing the bonus chapter of Camelot: Wrath of the Green Knight. Not sure yet what will be next.

Thanks, oldbroad smile

Did you get to enjoy the Camelot game any better or has it just not appealed to you think

Mad, the Camelot game didn't appeal to me too much. The story confused me which is not unusual but I didn't care for the puzzles too much either. duh

Did the 13th Skull not too long ago; since I have been working my way through ALL of the MCF series. Currently in the middle of "Moths to a Flame"

Also played Dual Disposition last week. Not bad.

Well, we definitely differ with our opinions on THIS game, oldbroad, because I enjoyed the story.
And the story is always a major part of my liking or disliking a game lol

Tally Ho, at some point I would like to play through all of the MCF games too. It's quite a project now considering the number of them!

I am playing Mystery Trackers: Four Aces. I got it to run on Windows 11 by changing the DPI.

This is one of my favorite casual games, nice and long with an adventure game feel and some entertaining puzzles. I quite like this early iteration of Elf. The detective acquires Elf, who was chained to a lamp post, in a previous game. One of the best features is the use of live actors.

The detective makes comments that add touch of character. My current favorite is "Oops. I didn't mean to blow the whole place up. Sorry." before we trundle on past the destroyed obstacle without another thought and after remarking piously that private houses are not to be ransacked.

Another gem: "You can never have too many tool box handles."

The game isn't that complex but I have had to use hints several times after quitting for several days.
