How many BigFish games have you purchased in, say 6 months?
I have purchased 37 games (not including the boxed ones).
I couldn't believe it when I checked that out.

Is that in 6 months Ana?
Wow, and I thought I was bad. I have no idea what I would do without Bigfish and I wouldn't have found it if it hadn't been for Gameboomers.....

Double WOW! I don't even want to check now. I was born without the ability to say NO to a new game, so I imagine I have that many too. My other weakness is As Seen On Tv Products I can't live without! Soon I'm going to have to rent a storage unit to sleep in!
OK, now what?

If it makes you feel any better you are not alone. We sell 20,000 to 30,000 games per day. The good news is there have been several studies that show casual games keep the mind sharp and have cognitive benefits. So you may be broke, but at least your mind is sharp. Perhaps you can use your new found mental capabilities to earn more money to buy more games. Happy New Year!

Well, I've bought 2 games already and I only signed up with Big Fish last Saturday, so I've been playing Casual games for a week.
To love is to be happy with!

I've bought 42 since May and there are several more I'm debating on. Since I discovered those hide and seek games and match 3s, it's been crazy. My husband is going to ban me from the computer at some point. As far as cost, I just tell him that it could be worse. I usually dropped $30-40 for an adventure game, so it's like getting 5 or 6 for the price of 1 that I'm not buying at the moment. It evens out.

I'm sure I'd have a much higher number if there were more platform games. LOL
It's good to know that I'm not the only BigFish obsessor.

54 or 55---49 since 5/05 however I purchased about 5 games before I became a member... oldies that show up white on my Big Fish startup... like Word Wizard Deluxe and Slingo, Trivial Pursuit and the first version of Magic Match and a solitaire game, so I would guess I have downloaded about 54 or 55. I didn't redownload all of them to my new computer. No wonder my old computer conked out. Incidently, I liked Magic Match 1 and was told I could no longer get it.  It was a cute game.

Alas, I must be a noobie, I only bought 22 games,in the past year. I remember when I first joined, I was hesitant to sign up for 12 months, cause I didn't think I would be able to find 12 games I liked. HA!!! I have now convinced both of my sisters to join as well. They love hidden object games too. I am so glad I found BigFish.(And you can't beat the price) Learned about it right here on GameBoomers.

I got two friends and one sister to join and have 18 not counting the 2 free games for starting my space. Twice I "collected" 3 credits before buying but then spent all 3 at one sitting. Those darn (wonderful) adventure games keep getting in the way  I can see a fruitful January coming though if Dream Chronicles 2 arrives along with Azada 2. Linda 
So many games, so little time.

Oh wow, I forgot about Azada 2. I knew Dream Chronicles 2 was coming out but Azada 2 also? My friends and family are going to wonder where I disappeared too...LOL
I suffer from mild anxiety and Meniere's Disease so sometimes the only thing I do during the day is play these casual games and adventure games so I'm so thankful for Bigfish and Gameboomers.

Little over 30 in a year. Before joining, made sure that they had 6 games that I wanted and had the ones that I liked playing on-line. Bought all those in first couple of months along with a couple of others.
Never resist a generous impulse.

Like many people, I was hesitant to join because I didn't know if I was going to buy 12 games  , but then it seems that I have to buy extra credits all the time.  I haven't earned any extra credits to my account, I keep trying to talk my friends into joining, but none of them game.  Games get me through the winter when I can't play golf and they make the waiting for spring much more bearable.

Is there a place where people can write and suggest ideas for games for Big Fish?

I know that you can submit games to them but I would think there are legal ramifications to excepting an "idea". You see lawsuits like that all the time where folks claimed someone stole their suggestions and made money off it and now they want their due. Ana

It is a slippery slope as Ana points out, we live in a very litigious world. If you do find a game out there that we do not have, you can send a link to it to submissions@bigfishgames.com and we will try to add it to our site. We work with every developer in the world that is relevant for our game types (except RealArcade's internally developed or published games...they also own Gamehouse. We would like their games, but they decided not to give them to us.)
