Always rooting for you, Marian, as you always seem to root for me!

So far, I have avoided the BOGO sale again, key words may be "so far".

I finished Christmas Stories: Yulemen last night and I think I will play Tearstone next (the first game which I've never played yet).

Good idea to play Tearstone, which I also have not played yet.

I did get two games for the BOGO but it only cost me four dollars total because I had the rest of it in points.

I have started Tearstone in my Win 7 computer. There is an inventory bar at the bottom of the screen with pictures of what you need to find. You find the items over about 5 different scenes. Some you just find; some you find using an already found item; some might be given to you if you help somebody. There are some miscellaneous puzzles such as 'find the difference' or 'find two matches' also. Some of the items are pretty hard to find. So far, so good though! Once you finish with that set of scenes and inventory, the story moves along to another set.

I remember the game being very well received when it came out. It sounds good so far.

I just finished Tearstone. It's a pretty good game, Marian. You should play it. I used a walkthrough for one puzzle though I shouldn't have. It was an easy enough puzzle but I was lazy, meaning that I had thought in my head to try something but then didn't try it and should have. I tried everything else so I don't know why I skipped on the one thing that was the right thing.

I think I will play Spirit Legends: Time for Change next. It is one of 9 Domini games still to play on my Win 7.

I will move Tearstone up on my to-play list, ob. Good to hear about it!

I have that Spirit Legends game but haven't played it yet. I have played one or two of the others in the series, though.

I finished Spirit Legends: Time for Change which I guess was okay, but I couldn't really follow the story and got hung up on only one puzzle - the last one in the main game, which always irks me.

I think I will play Timeless: The Lost Castle next.

I haven't played The Lost Castle but seem to remember people here having good things to say about it.

Timeless: The Lost Castle is a pretty long game. I don't know if I understood the story (as usual) but it had some pretty good puzzling.

I think I will play Mystery Trackers: Silent Hollow next.

Yes, I do remember people saying that The Lost Castle is a long game as well. It sounds good.

I can't remember if I have played Silent Hollow before. Will have to take a look.

I just started the Baking Bread TM CE. Having fun with it!

Are you still having fun with Baking Bread, Marian?

I completed Mystery Trackers: Silent Hollow tonight. It's a pretty good game. I believe I will play Dark Lore Mysteries: The Hunt for Truth next.

I'm yet again replaying New York Mysteries series. The HO scenes are a little different to the usual. Love these games.

Aretha, I love that series. Last year I finished the first game in the series for the third time.

Finished the Baking Bread CE (enjoyed it very much) and am going to start Small Town Terrors: Livingston.

Ob, I can't remember if I've played Silent Hollow. Will check.

Okay, checked, and I don't think I have played that Mystery Trackers game yet.

Glad you enjoyed the Baking Bread game, Marian!

I played the Small Town Terrors series in 2020. I don't really remember them but I'm certain that I liked them a lot.

I am enjoying Dark Lore Mysteries quite a bit so far, despite the bad reviews it has.

I find that it's usually best not to pay too much attention to reviews for this very reason. Keep us posted on Dark Lore Mysteries. I don't have that one.

I just played Moontrain yesterday and today (it's not too long) because I tried it a year or two ago and it crashed and couldn't finish it. New computer (and maybe bug fixes) it went smoothly. Total silliness, and a nice diversion.

Now playing New York Mysteries The Lantern of souls. Played it before, but lots forgotten. 5BN always comes through!

Yes, 5 BN always seems to come through, Tally Ho.

Good to know that you were able to finish Moontrain. Thanks for letting us know!

I replayed Lantern of Souls last year.

Have you played their most recent release on Big Fish here?

I have played that one, thanks.
Just looked at the demo of the latest iteration of Amerzone. OOh gorgeous! Played the original years ago, and am undecided if I will spring for the remake. Time will tell.

I finished Dark Lore Mysteries tonight. It is not what you'd call a great game but I thought it was pretty good, definitely worth playing in my opinion. I played it in Windows 7. Unfortunately I did have to skip two puzzles. One of them where you had to hold the cursor down and drag something somewhere. I just couldn't do it but I'm not sure it was all me. Somebody in Steam had the same problem. The other one, I just couldn't figure out the solution. I looked for a text guide but couldn't find one. I found a screenshot on Steam that I hoped was the solution but it wasn't. It was just a screenshot of the scene.

I may play Fatal Evidence: Art of Murder next.

I have also been playing Twistingo (the first game). When I first started it I wasn't sure I liked it, but the second time I played I got hooked. It is both relaxing and nerve racking (the Bingo part). I'm playing on the easiest mode.

I haven't played Art of Murder yet. Good to know you are liking Twistingo now.

I will put Dark Lore Mysteries on my maybe-buy-during-a-good-sale list.

I just finished Paranormal Files: Fatal Flaw CE. Nothing extraordinary about it but it was a nice solid game.

I finished Twistingo and Fatal Evidence: Art of Murder a couple of nights ago but haven't started anything new yet. I think I may go back to finish off the Golden Trails series and play The Guardian's Creed.

Sounds good.

I just started Labyrinths of the World: Secrets of Easter Island.
