I started yet another good Dark Romance game, Curse of Bluebeard!

I've played that game twice, ob.

Otherwise, I am playing another time management game at the moment.

Just fired up "The Legacy : Forgotten Gates". One of my all time favourite casuals
Never tire of playing it - or actually playing the whole series !!

Good to see you back gaming, Mad! I'll have to try to bump this series up.

I finished The Curse of Bluebeard. Tomorrow I hope to start Enchanted Kingdom: Descent of the Elders. For some mindless fun I started Queen's Garden: Halloween Match 3 game tonight.

Yesterday, started the long overdue Delicious Emily's Cooking and Romance. Barely started but so happy to have Delicious games back on PC.

Still on the first location. A lot is familiar but mini game has been added. Haven't quite got the hang of upgrades yet, but that's just me. Mostly happy just to be playing a Delicious game again.

Aretha, I was thrilled to see the new Emily game released yesterday - I never thought we would see another one! Do let me know what you think of it when you get a chance.

Ob, I haven't played Descent of the Elders. Let me know what you thought of it and also the match 3.

I started Myths of the World: Love Beyond CE yesterday.

Still playing older games that I never played. Dark Romance; Sleepy Hollow.

I just replayed that game recently, and I enjoyed it.

Finished Descent of the Elders. It was pretty good but seemed more puzzle heavy than the prior games in the series. You can, however, play a Match 3 game instead of the puzzles (not just instead of the HO scenes). I did enjoy the puzzles though.

The Halloween match 3 game is keeping me entertained but I'm not sure why there are candy canes in it and also fireworks. It is pretty much just like the last one I played (Sakura Season). Not a lot of challenge and it does get repetitious but it's good for me right now, and of course, there's the gardening. (Only gardening I've ever done in my whole life!)

Next up is Mystery Tales: The Other Side.

Thanks for letting me know about Descent of the Elders. I may play a match 3 game next. I just finished Claire's Cruisin' Cafe CE and enjoyed it very much.

I have played Mystery Tales: The Other Side and I liked it.

I am playing Haunted Manor- Remembrance(2022) I know I played it before but I barely remember it.

I have never played that one, Marlene, but I do have it in my Purchase History.

It's simply amazing how we find so many purchased games never played!

Indeed!

I finished Mystery Tales: The Other Side last night. It was okay but there were quite a lot of puzzles that I didn't like too much.

Today I started Hidden Expedition: The Altar of Lies and I like it quite a bit so far. I am currently taking a break from it though as I am stuck in a puzzle that I really would like to solve on my own, if possible.

Sounds good, oldbroad. I don't remember the puzzles in The Other Side but will replay it one of these days to refresh my memory.

Good luck with the Altar of Lies puzzle!

I finished Laruaville 3 yesterday. I had a good time with the game.

I could not solve that puzzle Marian and had to look at the guide. It was a VERY simple solve BUT I didn't understand something about the puzzle. I thought I had to go through each filled space but I did not. I only had to go through a certain 4 spaces and then some of the others. Since I really wasn't sure I was understanding the instructions, I don't know why I didn't try to solve it both ways. My bad!

Things like this happen to me quite often, ob. If my son is around, I have him take a look at it and he always figures out what I am doing wrong. I often don't understand something about a puzzle!

Still in a match-3 mood so have started Cursed House 3 and am enjoying it.

Have fun Marian!

When I made that "bundle" purchase last month I bought the only games they had of Laruaville, Cursed House, and Spellarium, numbers 8, 8, & 7 respectively. Steam has a bundle with the first of each of them that I might pick up one day and start there.

I think you will enjoy them, ob. They are a change of pace and somewhat different from other match-3 games out there. Nice that you were able to get them in that bundle.

Pulled out another oldie. Mystery Case Files- Madame Fate. I have played this game dozens of times and I never tire of it. This is one of my favorite HOG's.

I love Madame Fate! Have fun with it! At this time I only have the game on disc, but may re-purchase for downloading.

I will be starting Labyrinths of the World: Lost Island, hopefully later today.

Madame Fate is definitely one of the best HOGs!

I haven't played Lost Island yet, ob.

I'm replaying Echoes of the Past: Revenge of the Witch, one of my all time favorite casuals for the beauty of the drawings and the intricacy of the design.


This time around the game befuddled me in an entirely new way. I backed one click out of an HO and closed the game. I was thinking that was a good place to stop because I would remember to return and finish the HO, thus not getting stuck.

But nooo. I forgot to re-enter the HO and eventually had to look at the guide, only to discover that I had tricked myself.

Edited to Add: I managed to solve a logic puzzle with pottery figurines this time around that I remember skipping previously because the game didn't take take my solution.
