Yikes! I'm not at all happy that we won't be able to post to the Forums and send PMs at BFG. I totally missed that! And the "sales" they've been having aren't all that great lately either. 

I'm waiting for the next Super Sale attached to a game I want.  Almost took advantage of the last one (attached to dark Parables), but decided to hold off until I finished some more games. 
 

I read about the BFG forums closing.  I'll never forget how I felt when Chit-Chat closed, at least there's a couple weeks notice this time instead of a couple days.  I hope we get some people over here.
I finished Darkarta CE from Gamehouse, but I haven't done the bonus yet.  It was okay.  I just finished Jewel Match Solitaire La Amour or whatever the lovey-dovey one is.  It's pretty hard at the beginning but once you get all your bonuses bought it's a piece of cake if you use them, almost impossible if you don't, lol.  You can get 3 stars on each hand, plus whatever hearts you uncover.  You need a certain amount of stars to unlock each set of 5 mah-jong lay-outs.  You need hearts to build a pretty scene, and money to buy your power ups.  It was okay, I like solitaire games.  I also finished Braveland, a very simple, basic RPG.  I had already played the second two in the series, Pirate and Wizard.  They're all pretty much the same, not much (if any) strategy needed.  You can finish in a day or two so they're nice, easy, stress-free time wasters.
Hubby got me a used IPad Air 2 for my birthday.  Does anyone have any free or cheap suggestions for games or really anything in general I should know, I've never used iOS before.  I have a few Android tablet games from Amazon, I don't suppose they would convert to iOS, would they?  I've been playing Evil Apples, it's just like Cards Against Humanity.  I tried Fortnight Battle Royale but it's not for me, lol.
I'm about ready to go on the road, Monday after next.  I'm thinking about taking our little TV, we have Hulu and Amazon Prime and I just prepaid 3 months of Directv and got an Apple TV for free.  I also bought the cable to go from the IPad to the tv.  I don't really watch tv so I'm kinda laughing at myself.  I watch a little on my phone or tablet but it's always Project Runway or America's Next Top Model.  We have the $5 HBO add-on though so I will be binge watching Game of Thrones.
 

I have finished:

Hidden Expedition - Fountain of Youth PE. Very fun! I really liked the music.
Mystery Tales - Her Own Eyes PE. Ok, rather fun. Silly BG.
Mystery Trackers - Paxton Creek Avenger PE. Fun puzzles and of course Elf . Fun bonus: Archive with 1 HOS and 1 Puzzle from all 10 MT games!
Witches' Legacy - Awakening Darkness PE. Rather boring. Story disjointed.
Shadow Wolf Mysteries - Curse of Wolfhill PE. Barely OK. Very short and not many collectibles.
Puppet Show -  Face of Humanity PE. Rather fun, nothing special...Also few collectibles.
Dead Reckoning - Broadbeach Cove PE. Very fun!
Punished Talents - Stolen Awards PE. Boring!!! Didn't even bother to play the BG 
Endless Fables - The Minotaurs Curse PE. Very fun!!! Lot to do in each scene and different kinds of collectibles. Very fun Puzzles 


Wendy, I don't know if we have the same taste in games , but I think you would like Tiles & Tales.
I also suggest : Puzzledom  with many games in one (8 from the start and up to 15 that unlocks as you play), 2 HOG June's Journey and Pearl's Peril, Pandamino and my go to favourite Canasta.
You find them all in the App Store.
Have a safe trip this summer 


 

sunshinej -- I have a lot of old, unplayed games too. That's a big reason that I'm bummed that BFG will get rid of the Forums. If I get stuck I can go to the Forums and get an answer or a good push in the right direction.

lilyr, I always use the forums to check if others have a solution to my problems  Most of the PE:S at GH have been CE:S at BFG. Nowadays they even keep the BFG logo!
