Thank you for the subtle thump on the head. The Wolfs Fang is exactly what I needed to get me going again. Now I can send the men in white suits away, they have been banging on my door for the last couple of hours......... Thanks again.

Just got out of the hospital (I'm OK) but need to do some recouperating... am so glad there is plenty of resources on BFG to do just that. I'm having a field day. What should I play first? Decisions, decisions... laugh

Thanks for letting me know I'll love this game:)


Prices are going up everywhere except in our incomes.

Thanks again, I was stuck on solution 3, for some odd reason I was thinking the cards wouldn't move when they were already next to another one, duh. Next play I will try it on my own.

I'm feeling very proud also, although I must admit that I did skip a couple of the mini-games. I'm on my second plsy-through and have accomplished a few I skipped the first time. Terrific game!!! Love, Teddo

Just in case any game developers read this, I hate the "hand" pointer. Hate it. Give me an arrow - or at least the option to switch to it - every time.

Just had to say that.

Played the hour demo and I really liked it. Bought the game and and I am looking forward to playing the rest. This was the first game I had time to play since working on GHOST Chronicles and I must say it is very nice. Hats off to the developer and to all the GameBoomers that beta tested it!!!

Let me join the chorus of raves for this terrific game. It's long, by HOG standards (5+ hours, easily), has varied and interesting locations, a twisty and involving storyline and, to top it all off, features the 20 puzzles and 20 HO screens at the end to revisit at your leisure! Highly recommended, especially for $6.99.

I just finished the game and I loved every minute of it. Some of the mini games I couldn't win and I am so grateful for unlimited skips and quick refill on hints or I would not have finished the game. Highly recommend this game and hoping there will be a sequel. For me a great game is when I have trouble tearing myself away from it.

Just a further note on the 20 mini-games and 20 HO screens that are available when done. There's one of the mini-games that has really captured my wife and me - a screen with a round light source in the middle which has to light up a number of balls with connecting rods. Sounds and initially looks simple, but we've still not figured it out and really enjoy it. Also, with the HO screens, the hint button replenishes immediately, so this gives a good opportunity for practice in general with the whole HO experience, something my wife especially enjoyed since she is a rookie in this kind of gameplay. Again, a wonderful purchase!

Robertson,

Lights puzzle - I'll try to explain the rationale. Don't look if you want to find out yourself.

Click to reveal..
1. You light up-process one of the inner lights - going counterclockwise so that it will match a lit one outside. Example: yellow.
2. Do the next inner light clockwise until you get the same colors side by side lit outside (anywhere): For example - yellow and yellow. They should be in pairs only.
So inside and outside are now yellow:yellow.
3. You do the next adjacent light (click until a reaction outside is seen - can be other colors will cause reaction too). Find out that yellow (from previously lit) and a new one you're working on (maybe green) will light up - yellow and green outside.
So inside (rhe last 2 will be yellow:green). You then light up or look for yellow:green outside.
4. Work on the next one beside green now and so on.... until the whole circle of lights are lit.
