I trashed Forest Legends, I seriously disliked this game for some reason.

I'm going to have to try Forest Legends after Natural Threat, just to see, lol.  I liked the start of Threat, now it's getting a bit bogged down in the middle but not too bad, I think it's more that I got distracted with tear down, jumping and setting up again.  I like the premise of the plants taking over the town, but since weed killer killed one of those plants, why don't we just head for the store and grab a bunch of it?  And I don't get that part where you touch a plant and the room goes all woozy. 


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

Almost through with Natural Threat 2 and I started Castle.  Both these games have some seriously hard puzzles.  I've skipped several of them.  I wanted to do them but didn't want to invest the time.  I wish they had a hint button that gave you the first move, they were pretty complicated.  I thought Castle might be kinda logical but it's devolved into the typical HOPA no-logic.  I go to a bar to ask about a suspect.  He's gone into the bathroom and not come out.  Barkeep gives me some handle for a trap door so I can go to the basement to get the restroom key.  I had to find the two halves of a family crest (whose family?  the bartender?  the waitress?) to open the box the restroom key is in.   I had to pull staples out of something to get one half of the crest.  I'd found the stapler locked away in a drawer in the victim's apt. and for some reason felt the need to steal it and drag it around with me.  If I'd wanted a stapler...sorry, it's a staple remover, I could have easily picked it up one of the times I was in my office instead of stealing it from a crime scene.  I guess that's why good adventure games cost $40 and not $6.99, lol.  It costs a lot of money to program logic.

I've almost finished Castle, I've had enough of it.  On to Forest Legends.  I hope I like it better than you did, Oscar, because I just recently got it, lol.

tee -- I have and have actually played all three!  Loved, loved, loved TIGER EYE.  It has some (if I remember correctly) challenging puzzles.  Great story and graphics and lots to do.   DEADTIME STORIES   was gorgeous and had a good story.  I think a lot of people were hoping for a 2nd but it never happened.  I can't remember a thing about the 3rd.

question to self:  If I have played all these games why do I have tons still unplayed?

Loved, loved, loved Tiger Eye, or I did at the time,anyway.   For some reason I didn't care for Deadtime Stories, but lots of others did.  I have a Secret Mission but it's about Mata Hari and I think I played it. 
So why do I still have tons of games unplayed?
