Add me to the "not a fan of Botanica" group. It was pretty but not as much as some made it out to be. I have seen more visually appealing games than that.

Loved Patchworkz. That lizard one was hair pulling . I did manage to get 3 stars on all of them but had to keep going back to that one over and over until I got it. 

Thanks for the advice on Farmscapes, oscar. I'm leaning toward getting it, but I'm still wondering if anyone could compare it to the Gardenscapes games. It's a game I'm sure I'd at least like, and normally I'd snap it right up. But because I'm trying to cut back on game purchases for the next few weeks I can't seem to make up my mind. How different is it from the Gardenscapes game? Basically the same, but on a farm?

It has some adventure bits which the first Gardenscape did not.  Gardenscapes doesn't have trophies, Farmscapes does.  M3 in Farmscapes; HO in Gardenscapes.

What I really liked about Farmscapes is that you can renovate 3 farms using the same profile and easily move back and forth between them to see what upgrades you used.
 

Finished Settlement: Colossus.  I'll definately play this one again.

Next I'm going to play Redemption Cemetery: Salvation of the Lost Collector's Edition and probably end up wondering why I continue to buy ERS Games.

Noelle Tiger Eye 1 the riddle box was quite good.  I never played the second one.

Yes, Tiger Eye 1 was good.  I've replayed it several times.  I even read the book it was based on.

But the second game in the series was not good.  It sort of followed the book but the artwork was not good at all.  It was so bad it was distracting to me.  

My recomendation: play the first game and then read the book - skip the 2nd game.

I liked the second one just fine.  It had a lot of disappointed reviews, but I liked it. I think I gave it 4 stars.    No HOs IIRC.
I'm not going to play Found anymore.  I looked at reviews and people started out liking it a lot but then after awhile you had to spend too much money to really play.  The free Fairway you don't really need money so far.
