Re: Finish your games challenge - 2014

I trashed Mystery Age Dark Priests.  I am really not enjoying it.  It feels like such a chore to play and I have so many other games that I'm just not going to bother carrying on.  I looked at the guide and I'm over half way done so I doubt it's going to get any better, for me.

Forgotten Kingdoms: Dream of Ruin
Danse Macabre: Moulin Rouge
Grim Legends 2: Song of the Dark Swan

Decisions - Decisions hmm?

I would pick Mystery Castle and Danse Macabre, but I think you have slightly different tastes, so probably two different ones, lol


 

I picked Danse Macabre: Moulin Rouge and Grim Facade: The Artist and the Pretender since it was about Leonardo Divinci.  I also wanted the Mystery Castle one, but maybe as a DD.

GameHouse takes forever to update their discounted games.

Sunshine, the discounted games get updated each Tuesday.  However, only a few games get changed each week.  I'm not sure how long each game stays discounted but I'd say at least 2 or 3 weeks, maybe 4.
 

Yes, I do  see a change today.  They replaced Campfire Legends: The Last Act with Nightmares From the Deep: Cursed Heart and I think Weird Park: Broken Tune is new too.

Re: Finish your games challenge - 2014

I have Norton and it keeps blocking these attacks from SVCHOST.exe.  I check the security history often on Norton and would see 50 attempts from SVCHOST.exe at a time.  Each one of them is blocked by Norton.  This has happened 5 times over the past few days and each time had 50 attempts lasting several minutes.  What is SVCHOST.exe and what does it want with my computer?

Re: Finish your games challenge - 2014

Yesterday I was very productive
I finished 
Hidden Object- Home Makeover 2. It was fun but tiresome at the end because I was obsessed by getting all the Achievements (like having 1.500 fully satisfied customers!)
Insane Cold- Back to the Ice Age. I liked it but have trouble knowing where to go, so I used the Hint button for that.
Claws & Feathers. Very fun! I got gold on 44  out of 56 levels. I´m thinking of maybe buying it.

I got inspired by your talk of GH coupons, so I took a jump and bought the 1000 doors bundlle with Oscars coupon and got it for $ 4.03 (even though I have three of them as SE on BFG) and have five punches! My first ones at GH, I only bought with GamePass before 

Oscar, you mentioned of giving your mom a nonogram,I like the Gizmo ones very much and bought them both. I actually prefer the Spooky best. They are very good because you don´t have to play a whole board you can save whenever you want, and continue later.The story is cheesy but you can skip that.

Re: Finish your games challenge - 2014

The 75% off code didn't work for me today at GH so I used the 50%off one, FAVORITE, and got 12 Labors of Hercules 2 The Cretan Bull. It says it's a TM.  I hope I like it, I blew 59cents on it.  When I first joined BFG I'd fill a punch card every month with DDs or a sale game from their occasional sales.  But they were all from $2.99 to $4.99.  You can fill an entire card for that at GH, including some PEs, if you can find games you don't own already.  I've got 4 punches towards my 3rd coupon.  Do you get punches when you use the free coupons?  I wouldn't think so, since members only need 4 punches.


I downloaded the beta for MCF, but don't know if I'll try it.  I'm pretty darn sure I'm getting the game eventually no matter what.  One person rated it 1 star because there weren't any live actors in it.  That's no reason to give a game 1 star
I've started Evil Pumpkin.  It's hard.  And the screen transitions are pretty slow.  It's different, I don't really know what I'm doing but I think things will start to pick up soon.
I started playing the bonus in Campfire Legends.  I thought it would be a great backstory explaining why things had happened but it was something entirely different.  It was 16 different "Spot the Difference" scenes.    With 15 really small, hard to see differences.   In the darkwith a flashlight..    And a 5 minute timer..  Hubby happened to be walking by and stopped to help me.  We ran out of time several times.  The differences change each time.  We finally managed to get it by mere seconds and using the 5 hints you can get.  Clicked on the second one, it was more of the same so I was outta there!
 


No matter how much I complain, I'm grateful for all I have.

Re: Finish your games challenge - 2014

Thanks for the links Tirama and Wendy.  It does say Windows/System 32/SVCHOST.exe, so that seems legit.  It just that it has tried 250 times this past couple of days and Norton blocked it each time that had me starting to worry about it.

Wendy...Yes, Evil Pumpkin is hard, but keep at it.  I wasn't overly impressed with the beginning until it slowly got me hooked.  I am at a really neat part of the game which I don't want to say because I'll spoil it for you guys, also  I am stuck right now.  This game makes you think!

That's too bad about the bonus chapter.  I also got the PE for The Last Act since it was on sale.  I don't think I would do them either.

Re: Finish your games challenge - 2014

I wasn't planning on getting anything this month, but then BF SC gave me a coupon to replace Cruel Collections: The Any Wish Hotel, which kept freezing, and the coupon had to be used by the end of the month.

The coupon was good for either an SE or a CE, so I used it to get Sable Maze: Forbidden Garden Collector's Edition.  I also used my last PCC to get Gizmos: Spooky Adventures, and borrowed a PCC to get Gizmos: Riddle Of The Universe.

I really wanted to start Mystery Case Files: Fate's Carnival Collector's Edition next, but life got hectic and I don't want to feel rushed when I play this game.  I'm going to play the Halloween nonogram game next, and hopefully start MCF:FC at the beginning of next month.
