What's Happening » Happy Super Super Super Super Belated Birthday, Tee! » December 28, 2015 1:47 pm |
Thanks, all! My birthday was on Friday the 13th this year, and went to dinner with a group of my forever friends from HS (there were 10 of us) and we treasure the fact that we are still kicking it and can get together.
Then, a little side trip to the casino that turned out lucky made it a great day. Birthday dinner with the sons and grandkids the day before made it special, as well.

I have no idea but I'll take a guess ~ something to set a hot bowl in on your table.

I also just finished Christmas Stories: Puss in Boots CE. I read some of the comments in the forum about it being too childish and more geared for kids. Some of the puzzles were extremely easy and a child could do them but others were harder, esp. the maze one that had the columns that went up and down and you had to move the four cats over to the other side (that took a while but I did it). I loved the music and the different types of HOS scenes which were few and far between, lots more puzzles. I'm not really a cat person but I did find some of them kinda cute with their voices and actions. All in all, a decent game for Xmas.

oscar, I did and liked it pretty much until I tried to play a couple of my older games from our challenge and they wouldn't run. I was almost to the end of my 30 days so decided to revert back to my Win 7 and the games played just fine. As you all know, I have lots of unplayed older games so it was not worth it to me to upgrade right now. I love my Win 7 and like lilyr, I will most likely get a new computer in a couple of years or so (mine's only 3 yrs old) and it will have it on it and I will keep my Win 7 for games that will not play on Win 10.

I liked both Echoes of the Past: TCOS and Robin's Quest and rated them B. Echoes had lots to do and was pretty while Robin's Quest was definitely different in game play. It took me a while to figure out what I was doing but knowing that areas were clear helped keep me on track. I did finish, however, without all wanted posters (59/62) and pardon pieces (10/11) for last character. WT said you could go back and find which I did. Both still fun to play for older games.
