Tirama -- ART too? I haven't even received something like 6 quests.
You must have missed some quests. I check the thread in the BF forum each day to see what to expect. There's a total of 17 quests, but you only have to do 10 of them to get the last achievement - the Guacamole Dip. But the most important thing is that Odin asks you for the Spring collectibles and you give them to him.

Re: Finish your games challenge - 2016
Hi everyone! 
I know I haven't been around much lately and, if you'd like to know why, check out the Chat Lounge thread. But Oscar was right ... I have been as sick as a dog and my computer fried. Not my new one but rather my old one, the one with Win7 so I could play old games. So I had to get a "new" secondhand one with Win7. I also lost my laptop, which I think you already know. I haven't sent it back for a replacement yet as I've just been too busy (and sick). But the real problem was that I lost wireless on my new computer. After trying everything I could but all to no avail, I ended up having to get a new wireless usb adaptor so I could get connected again. That was all during all the work I've been doing, trying to get my place ready for my visitors (see the Chat Lounge). So I've been as sick as a dog, super super busy, as well as not able to connect to the outer world!
Wendy, I've finished Chateau Garden with my FunPass and, even though I really liked it, I don't plan on buying it, which is what I normally do when I love an M3 game. I'm also in the middle of Yummy Dreams: Jelly Rainbow. Why don't you play it with your FunPass? I loved it so much I bought it from GH using a credit. I love swapping diagonally! Now, playing any other M3 when you can't do that is really disappointing. However, unlike what everyone else has reviewed, it's NOT a game made for kids ... it's WAY too hard! I'm stuck on a level and can't work out how to complete it before my moves run out. If you want a challenging M3, this is definitely it, just like the other one recently released by GH where I'm stuck on the last level, Level 100, and can't for the life of me work out how on earth you can finish that level.
Wendy, I think I saw you ask about Fantasy Quest 2 PE and what made it worth the PE price? Well, when you get to the end of the levels that are first shown, you get more levels, then more levels, then, if you have the PE, you end up with double the no. of levels. I loved it ... I've already finished it ... and got the PE version from GH with a Rewards Coupon, so cheap! I'm also in the middle of Secrets of Magic - The Book of Spells and love it and, if I remember correctly, it's quite challenging. GH sure has released lots of fantastic M3s lately! Also lots of PEs from BFG that I've only got as SEs! So I, just like FudgeChi, am super happy with my FunPass!
And FudgeChi, I'm amazed you're managing to play so many games! I'm SO jealous! 
I've only played 2 HOPAs since you last heard from me as I just haven't had the time or the concentration to play them, but I've been playing M3s as you can just play them for a level or 2 when you have a few mins. Of the 2 HOPAs that I've played, one has joined my 5 or so top fav games and the other one I also loved, but not as much. The fantastic one that I absolutely adored was ... Endless Fables: The Minotaur's Curse CE ... and the other one I loved, but not as much, was ... Myths of the World: Born of Clay and Fire CE ... or was it the other way around? I'm in Amsterdam atm (check out the Chat Lounge) and so can't check my notes. I'll post when I'm home again and let you know how great they are.
Well, given that it's BONUS PUNCH TUESDAY today, I'm off to fill my punch card before the end of the month while we have a BP day, then down to breakfast.
Now that I'm back online, and I'll soon be alone again, hopefully I'll be around again as usual before you know it!
Thanks to you all for thinking of me...

Re: Finish your games challenge - 2016
HIya Stusue! Those two games are on my to buy list. Do you recommend the CEs or SE? Lots of extras?
I just finished Dead Reckoning Broadbeach Cove and what a disappointment I found it to be. They've taken a good start of a series and sunk it in the toilet the last two games. jmo. This one was boring. No brains required regarding the evidence boards or anything. Here put this there. What was the point?everything was labelled.

Which Grim Tales are you going to tackle first Tirama? Maybe I'll play with you.

I am really behind in that series. The first one I'll be playing is Grim Tales: The Vengeance Collector's Edition. Not sure when I'll be starting. I have some personal goals I'd like to achieve in MC's Spring Event.

Re: Finish your games challenge - 2016
you are behind! I do have 3 to play. I finished that one a couple of years ago and really liked it. So enjoy!

Oscar, grrrrrrrr... I just had a whole reply typed and ready to submit and then lost it all! I'm sorry but it's really late and I can't face typing it again but I will say that I recommend the CE for both. Both were long with long bonuses (for me) with lots of collectibles, some of which were HARD to spot! And I don't get CEs without lots of extras. I loved both and am really glad that I got the CEs. And Minotaur had some of my fav MGs and they were HARD! And you can replay them all
I'll give you more info on Friday when I'm home alone for a few days while the kids are in Berlin, where I've organised the Honeymoon Package for them so they'll arrive to rose petals all over their bed, with a bottle of champagne and some chocolate-dipped strawberries!
However, if you wanted to take advantage of yesterday's code (PLAY) with today's bonus punches, I'd say go for the CE. but I still recommend you demo them if you haven't already as you may not like the same games I do or may not want the same thing in CEs that I do.

Re: Finish your games challenge - 2016
Tirama -- I got the guacamole, but it says there are still 2 events to go. Odin didn't ask for my sets. I must have given them to him last time. Either that or my "count" has gone up. I thought he was just hanging around waiting for me to finish Pirate Day!

There's two more quests, but there's no more rewards/achievements to be earned. So if people don't want to do the final quests, all they miss out on are the coins and experience points.
I think you did give Odin all the East stuff last year. As I recall, you missed a collection last Valentine Day and o course you were away for Pirate Day.
So now the long wait to 4th of July to be told to buy flags, and then another long wait for Pirate Day to hand over the last 4 collections.

Same here. I'm in M3 heaven, I don't really even want to play anything else. And all the BFG games being released there. I don't hardly want to buy a BFG game because I can play it at GH next year. And the CE version usually. I liked my Funpass last year but this year I soooo love it.
No matter how much I complain, I'm grateful for all I have.
