Glad you are enjoying your game, Marian thumbsup

Sadly, I'm still getting save problems with my Fright game crazy

After agreeing with oldbroad that the auto saves DID appear to occur when the in-game camera produced a photo, I found that after solving a puzzle in an earlier session today, and the camera producing a photo, when I went back into the game just now, the save that had been made was before the puzzle I had solved !! eek

My advice from Big Fish was to un-install and re-install the game and/or use Administrator privileges - both of which I had already unsuccessfully tried.
And there has been nothing since frown

So even though I really do like this game, at the same time I AM rather disappointedwith it duh

I had another email from BF and this time they offered me a refund or a replacement .... which is very appreciated !!

I will carry on with the game (although probably only intermittently) because apart from the saving fiasco I think it is good ....

Once again the system has broken down, ob. wink

I like the game. Graphics are very easy on the eyes, and it's a combination of hidden object scenes and inventory items. The puzzles so far have been very mild, which suits me just fine at the moment. There is a funny line in the game early on about a crowbar that had me grinning. Maybe I am about halfway (?) through the main game. Very pleasant game so far.

The developer (or publisher- not sure) is Cerasus Media. The only other HOPA game of theirs that I could find through a search is Mystery Stories: Mountains of Madness. I looked to see if it is in my Purchase History, and it is; however, unless I am missing something, I'm not finding it on Big Fish, so I guess it was removed. I see Gamehouse is still offering it, though.

With my BF compensation for "Fright", I have decided to go for the game you are currently playing, Marian .... Dark Mysteries : The Soul Keeper CE smile

[I will have to pay towards it though as under the new system I am not getting the value of an actual game replacement. I have been allotted "points" which cover about half the price of a game.]

Very grateful, nonetheless, and hopefully, I won't have any saving issues with this one !! lol

I know how you feel about the save issue, Mad. I recently played a game where my inventory items kept disappearing - started the game over twice and it just kept on happening. Very strange, as I have never had this happen before. Now I worry that this will repeat itself in another game, even though I know that it's very unlikely! rolleyes

I hope you enjoy the game. It is not the best game I've played but it is also far from the worst - and I am still having a nice relaxing time with it. smile

Yes. Over the years we have experienced all KINDS of weird and wonderful happenings within games, eh, Marian ?? lol

Anyway, I've just played the opening scenes of "The Soul Keeper CE" and it definitely looks like my kind of game so my fingers are crossed yes

Indeed, Mad! grin

There may be a few more hidden object scenes than you would like, but for some reason the hidden object scenes aren't bothering me all that much. There is enough "adventure" to keep me going.

You can always request a credit/points if you find that it is not much to your liking as you progress. smile

Thanks, Marian 🙂

I would normally only request any kind of credit if a game turned out to be faulty in some way, however it’s good to know of that option 👍

Yes, if you play a bit and it isn't what you thought it would be, I know people who have received points/credits in exchange. Big Fish is really generous that way. smile

I finished Amber's Airline CE and then fired up Jet Set Go, a TM I got in 2015. I enjoyed both of them.

Now I am downloading The Great Unknown: Houdini's Castle CE.

I'm replaying all my Grim Facade games in order that they appear in my game manager, some good, some so-so.

You got me with another one Marian. I don't have that Houdini game. I hope you enjoy it!

I'm playing Fatal Evidence: The Cursed Island. I'm currently stuck in a puzzle. I did eventually figure out how to place the pieces where I want them but now I am stuck figuring out where they all go. wink

Good luck with the puzzle, ob!

I am quite liking Houdini's Castle. There are some hidden object scenes but it's more adventure lite than HOG. I am probably about halfway through the main game and enjoying it a lot.

Thanks Marian. I've put a good bit of time into it and I'm not accomplishing anything. It resets if I quit out of the game which doesn't matter a lot I guess but I wish it wouldn't. I'm starting to get bored with it though. tired
