I really enjoy playing games such as Nancy Drew. But lately they really test my reflexes and I find myself needing more saved games. Does anyone have suggestion for games that I CAN play.
Thanks Betty

EDIT: P.S. Forgot to say that I am now 80 years old. Did I say forgot? Not funny. Betty

Have you given Syberia 1 & 2 a play through? They're older games, but excellent PnC Adventures.

I just started Overclocked - IMHO it's just about as perfect as a game gets. Dracula: Origin was a good play as well...

Hi Betty,

I would recommend the Carol Reed Mystery series. There have been 4 games so far: Remedy, Time Stand Still, Hope Springs Eternal, and East Side Story. They are very relaxing, beautifully photographed detective games. thumbsup

You might also enjoy Secrets of Da Vinci, Destination: Treasure Island, and Amerzone. Wonderful games that are great fun and not too difficult to play.

Hi Elizabeth, the Nancy Drew games, in comparison to most other AGs, include many challenges that test your reflexes. There are so many to choose from that don't & you've got some great recommendations so far! I'll just add the Agatha Christie, Sherlock Holmes games (the first two) & anything that Kheops makes! smile

Betty, how about the Capri and AnaCapri games. Beautiful to look at and not one to use the reflexes.

I am working on Dracula 3 and I don't think that there is much reflex problem either if you like a horror theme.

So many games, so little time....

new one out Murder in the Abbey, lots of dialogue no timed or reflext puzzles. there are dozens of games out there that don't require reflex or timed puzzles.....Riddle of the Sphynx
Scratches, if you like logic puzzles, safecracker new and old. P.S. I'm 71 and really enjoy the point and click, don't care for the keyboard games. Love ND and looking forward to Hardy Boys. I have many games, e-mail me for more if you like
