Re: Finish your games challenge - 2017
I've finished:
Dead Reckoning: Silvermoon Isle PE
Clutter V!: Leigh’s Story
Danse Macabre: The Last Adagio PE
Magic Cards Solitaire 2
Magic Cards Solitaire
Maidens of the Ocean Solitaire
Picross Beach Paradise
World’s Greatest Cities Mosaics 2
I had to bite the bullet and get a Windows laptop. More and more games wouldn't work on virtual windows. I'm just using it for those. it does mean I can now play the Clutter games which i'm liking.

Re: Finish your games challenge - 2017
I finished Mystery Trackers: Paxton Creek Avenger Collector's Edition and started Mystery Trackers: Train to Hellswich Collector's Edition. I like how these two games have none-speaking characters who react to what's going on (hiding under tables, etc from the bad guys) . In MC, we finally got another castle challenge, but the first couple of tasks aren't time consuming, so I should be able to finish Train to Hellswich and Double Clue: Solitaire Stories without any problems.
I'm going to pass on this weekend's CE BOGO and hope for something better before Labor Day. Pretty sure there will be a BOGO the both on CE's and SV's.

Re: Finish your games challenge - 2017
I demo'd Agatha Christie: ABC Murders because a lot of reviewers mentioned a wonky cursor. I hate wonky cursors and it is a good reason not to buy a game because of it. Luckily, my cursor worked just fine. The game plays different than the other 3 Christie games, but I got used to it quick. I got used to the cartoon graphics too. I don't like the way Captain Hastings looks though. Hastings is supposed to be younger than Poirot, not older! It is still a buy for me.

Re: Finish your games challenge - 2017
I finished Mystery Trackers: Train to Hellswich Collector's Edition and Double Clue: Solitaire Stories.
The developers of Double Clue: Solitaire Stories are Playtinum Games, same company that did The Secret Of Arcanesium: A Mosaic Mystery. The have some interesting ideas and bring something new to these types of games, but need a bit more polish.
I've also completed the first 5 tasks of MC's castle challenge.
Next I'm going to play Mystery Case Files: Broken Hour Collector's Edition and Mystery Case Files: The Black Veil Collector's Edition.

Re: Finish your games challenge - 2017
There's a super sale today and tomorrow. 
It's attached to a game I don't want.

I'm doing the math and getting 8 games at half-price (BOGO) comes to $55.92 Getting 8 games at $4.99 each plus $13.98 for the game I don't want comes to $53.92. Get 10 or 12 games, and buying during the super sale is an even better deal. But it still bugs me having to buy a game I don't want and will never play.
But if I wait, there's no guarantee the next super sale will attached to something I want.

I'll have to sit and contemplate. I can live with getting the Haunted Legends if I have to.

It looks like the SS were January and March. So who knows when the next would be. I may just let it slide I really need to get some played and I seem to only be managing 1-3 a month.

I'm talking myself out of buying anything. Last year there was a super sale when the MCF game was released. Yes, that means waiting until November, but there should be a BOGO sale for Labor Day weekend. I will have 8 game club credits, so I can get 8 CE's and not spend any money.
