Oooh Black Mirror! I played 1, but still have to play 2 & 3 I have 2 on a disc and bought 3 at Gamersgate. If I wasn't waiting for the new MCF I would love to play Black Mirror.

Just a reminder. This is the last Monday of the month. The next Bonus Punch Monday will be December 1.
Having the new MCF game released the day after most of us like to have our cards completed really is making things tough. Since my DH is on vacation this week, I'm going to wait to get MCF until next month.
THe past two years, when the game has been released, if you paid full price for MCF, you could get other CE's for half price but you had to choose them all at the same time you bought MCF.

Yeah, that's right Tirama this is the last monday. I have 1 punch on my card right now so no big loss if I lose it, but I am planning on buying MCF when it comes out.

I just uninstalled Psycho Train. I got through most of it, I think. It just kept going on and on and I was tired of it. It's pretty easy, though. The game is in sections so no map is needed, you only have a half dozen locations open at the most, then you move on and don't come back. The HOs are played twice. Everything is pretty dark, I think that's a good part of why I quit, my eyes are starting to hurt.

After 30 minutes of playing MCF Dire Grove, Sacred Grove, I won't be waiting for a sale, but will be buying it today and after much thought (and freyasmom's demo review) I am going to buy League of Light: Wicked Harvest CE at the 1/2 price sale. I'm off to enjoy my brand new MCF . Also, going to go grocery shopping for Thanksgiving.

Well, Sunshine, as long as you play it right away.... I played a few minutes of the beta. I'm getting it, but not until a sale. I usually don't find the extras enough to make me buy the CE version, either. The original Dire Grove would have been nice in CE but back then it was $19.99 and now I won't use the extra credit to upgrade it, oh, well.
I started Black Mirror on the laptop last night. Wow, forgot what a real adventure game is like. Then I went to save it and it won't save. The cursor turns red over the save slots but nothing happens when I press it.
I don't know if I can play the whole game without saving at anytime, I'd have to leave my laptop on, which I suppose I could do, but this really sucks. I'm off to look for possible solutions now.

Yes, I playing right now. I just completed my first door puzzle with no help or hints.
Okay, Wendy... I have a booklet for Black Mirror as I have a game disk for that game. To save you need to move cursor to top right of the black bar and click on the gears icon. This will return you to the main menu select save game and you will access the save menu. Click on the next available save slot and type in the name you wish to call the saved game. Press the enter key and you will be returned to the area in the game you just left. This is taken right out of the booklet. Hope it helps.

Thanks, Sunshine, I just poked around in my download and found the manual. I was getting to the save screen, but I've never played a game where you had to type in a name for the save, that's what was throwing me off. All saved now, and I also found out you have to right-click on objects sometimes so I'll have to wander back to my bedroom and click everything along the way.

I imagine this is the Thanksgiving Sale as well. I think I will have to pick up a few games I wanted and fill up the old card. I finished my last game and have been playing some of Gizmo Universe, so I can get tucked right in to MCF today. I wonder if I should replay Dire Grove first? Anyone know if it is continuation of sorts? I confess I have read zip about this game. I think Suns entry might win the contest. I didn't even get to it.

The MCF sale only lasts 2 days. I think for Thanksgiving there's usually a sale on selected SE's and the sale runs from Turkey Day until the end of Sunday.
