Lily. Stusue is correct that's the title. Instead of playing it tonight I did the demo of the new MCF. Colour me impressed. It's definite buy on the next 2 for 1.
Does anyone know what the new Xmas game is?

Oscar, there was a Christmas game beta out in March, if that's the one you're asking about:
Elephant Games
Mar 30th, 2015 - Christmas Stories 4: Puss In Boots Beta
I can give you the link if you'd like to play the beta.

BFG's TGT - Jewel Match Twilight - I already own and love it!
It's a great M3 with an appropriately spooky Halloween garden to decorate. However, you don't just decorate with things like pumpkins, but you also buy flying bats and ghosts and shooting stars, etc. I've already finished my first garden and have started on my second. So you not only get to decorate one garden but more than one! I'm not sure how many, though, as I stopped playing it when I started playing Fairy Puzzle (which I've now finished).
BFG's soft release - Fantasy Mosaics 11: Fleeing from Dinosaurs - I've finished it and it was exactly the same as the previous 10. It was fine but absolutely not a single new thing, just same ol' same ol'. And the garden was also the same - nothing new there, either. When I compare the gardens you decorate in the Fantasy Mosaic games to the ones - plural ! - I'm decorating in Jewel Match Twilight, there's simply no comparison. I'm waiting for them to come up with something new - like a 4th colour, or a story, or differently shaped boards, even differently sized boards! But after 11 it's just more of the same. It was so disappointing. I have absolutely no desire to add it to my collection.

Thanks stusue! For the Grimville title and the M3 review. I'm replaying SPOOKY BONUS. I just played HALLOWEEN: TRICK OR TREAT 2 (by the same folks who brought us the PARK RANGER games). I liked it a LOT better than the 1st game.
By the way, are you still in Australia? Are you feeling any better?

Okay, I am confused on the family tree in the Ravenhearst games. I eventually replay them all, but for now can someone tell me where Alister, Charles and Victor fit in. Which one was married to Emma? Where did Rose and the twins fit in? Did Rose ever have a 3rd child? Thanks.
I think the game is great! I really have been enjoying playing it since I got it. I play it every chance I get, which usually is 1/2 hour here and 1/2 hour there. The one door puzzle I ran into wasn't as hard as when Elephant did Dire Grove last year. Now those door puzzles were hard, but very satisfying when you completed it without any hints, even if it took a day or two to do it.

Agreed on the door puzzle but it was fun. I enjoyed the demo and will get it at the next 2fer for sure. Emma Ravenhearst - Charles loved her, he hired Rose when she became ill. Then of course he killed Emma and imprisoned Rose and the twins.Victor is the twins brother, Charles son. Alastair is Charles father. Charles was tormented by his awful mother.

I just didn't feel like replaying puzzles and mini games from Anabel, so I've put that game into the done column.
I started Phantasmat: The Dread of Oakville Collector's Edition, and have finished four chapters. Another two chapters to go, plus the bonus chapter and the extras.
I'm playing Fill and Cross: Trick or Treat 2 at the same time and I'm slightly more than half finished.

I got the new fill and cross as well Tirama, but on my iPad. What's your opinion on The Dread of Oakville?
I finished Grimville last night and while I liked it my enthusiasm started to wane with the amount of repetitive traipsing around. A jump map would have been a welcome addition.

Ah, I thought it was Victor who was the abused one, but that can't be if his mom was Rose. I know she isn't the gross mom in Escape from Ravenhearst. When was Alastair introduced? I guess i really need to play them all together.
