Looking at my list more carefully, I see I played 8 and 9 from that series back in July. Hope 10 arrives on BF soon.

Stuesue, regarding Tears of the Fallen: I honestly don't know if it's worth the CE for others, but I loved it and couldn't wait, I had to have it Now!
The Bonus Game was OK, not fantastic.Not specially long (I can't remember about 40 minutes?)
The doves were only for an Achievement. You click on the crowes for the background story, I don´t know if that is in the SE.
The Extras were the usual: Wallpapers,Concept Art, Music (which was important for me ), and you could replay all the HOS and Puzzles
The HOS was not interactive later on, but I found them a bit harder than usual.
For me the puzzles were the right difficulty level , some easy and some harder, for example in one puzzle you should stear a boat, I was on that for about 20 minutes before I got it right
Regarding Fantasy Mosaics 10, I think it's the best of them all!

I have finished Where Angels Cry- Tears of The Fallen CE. I loved it!!! I couldn´t stop playing it.
I liked everything: the graphics, the music, the hero VO , the puzzles and so on...
In fact I loved the music,I played with headphones, marvellous! It's definately in my Top 5.
Wonderful, they put out another one? I liked the first one enough that I can remember it, lol. I liked the brown color palette of it for a change. It didn't have HOs, either, i don't think. I liked the story, too, the whole game seemed fairly realistic, or as realistic as these games can seem. Will get the SE of this one for sure, thanks for mentioning it. It's tough if you don't get to check in or buy for awhile, the new release page goes back less than a month. Wish they had a page for the year-so-far.

I finished the bonus of Illicit Love, it continued the story of the villianess, I actually liked her more than the heroine, Thumbelina. Didn't care for the game, won't ever play it again.
I played some more of Enchantia Wrath of the Phoenix Queen. Once again, I prefer the bad guy. This is a Blue Tea game with pretty FRAGs. There are morphing objects that make your hint button recharge faster, I'm not very good at finding them. They aren't in every scene, i don't think, and I don't want to stare at the scene forever if there's nothing in it. Enjoying the FRAGS.
Still playing Gunspell, I leveled up and beat my guy, now I'm at the same stage again, need to scrounge up fights to level up so I can beat the next big boss. I still feel Puzzle Quest is far superior. I really love putting the RPG together with the M3, it adds skill and luck. These boards are on a diagonal and I'm still missing some moves, it's harder on a slant. The big bosses seem to know what will come out on the board next so they put together great combos moves.

Today is a bonus punch day. Hope they have another one next Monday. One of the CE's being released this week is Midnight Calling: Anabel. It's sort of a prequel to Midnight Castle. I plan to get that with my 60% off coupon, but I want to get an extra punch when I do.
I finished Danse Macabre: Deadly Deception Collector's Edition. I really liked the storyline but was surprised at how short the game was. Maybe it's because I'm playing the entire series and have played so many Eipex CE's in a row that I am more familiar with their game mechanics and therefore can finish the games quicker than if I were playing only one game each from several different developers?
I'm not bothered by the game being short. Better a short game that leaves you wishing there was more than a long game that wish would finally end.
I still have Danse Macabre: Thin Ice Collector's Edition to play. I hope to finish before the Pirate Day event starts in ART.

I'm really in the middle of nowhere this week... well, the Vermont Law School is only 5 miles down the road, but it's in the middle of nowhere, too, but the fair has wifi and I'm parked close enough to the office to get it. Already downloaded a new version of Firefox and the Midnight Castle update (wow). Has anyone upgraded to Windows 10? Does it affect our games? How huge is it? The connection here is kinda slow, but now would be the time to do it, before the fair opens Thursday.
I popped over to the GameHouse Forums only to find out that they've been closed, too. They weren't very lively, but still.
I bought Egyptian Settlement 2 with a GH credit, it had a lot of bad reviews here but the people who stuck with it rated it 5 stars. I didn't try it, just bought it. I've been in an "anything but a HOPA" mood for at least a month now. That being said, I've got I Know A Tale from GH set up and ready to go, hope I enjoy it.

Wendy, I have Windows 10, but I don´t know how huge it is... I haven't had any problems with any game, but I've read at the GH Forums that some of the Gizmo's weren't compatible but I haven't tried that yet.
I remember now that I had a problem with one game: the newest Mystery Trackers, downloading and starting were fine, but as soon as I should start to interact with something, black screen and error, and the laptop shuting itself off!
I didn't understand Egyptian Settlement 2 at all! I tried it but couldn't get the hang of it so uninstalled...
I have finished Spirit of Revenge- Elizabeth's Secret CE. Big disappointment! It started off good but went downhill. The only collectibles where some words that you put together to get quotes, and morphs to get hints. The Strategy Guide was useless, there was no Table of Contents, you had to flip through every page from the start to the end, like if you would like to see if you had miss any collectible and then go back to the chapter. It was easier to hit the Hint button than do this every time. That didn't matter because there were no Achievements! BTW the Hint button was also a bit off, when my helper John Drake was lying unconscious, the Hint button showed me that he should do something!!!
The Bonus game was OK, showing a bit of the game from John Drake's point of view.
At least the graphics were good...

I'm currently playing Ashley Clark Secret of the Ruby, which gets a little tedious at time, Grim Tales the Colour of Fright CE, which I'm quite enjoying, a good story, and replaying Gizmos Universe, fun as always.

Wendy, I downloaded Windows 10 and it did ok for a while on a new game but the minute I tried one of my oldies for my challenge, things turned sour. Tried another one and something else happened, one was so big, couldn't find play button and can't remember the other problem. I reverted back to Win 7 as I have too many old games unplayed so will keep it for now. Somewhere down the road, will get it on a new computer and keep my old, but for now, I'm keeping my current setup.

Tirama will be happy, Anabel is here. So far the first comments are how people don't want to buy it because of glitches in MC. Apparently those people haven't played ART, lol. And a FTP is entirely different than a HOPA, I don't really care for Elephant Games HOPAs but I haven't had any glitches with them.
