Would you believe that I read a couple of reviews that said that Green Moon was really easy and short???? 

My only question now is ...

Compared to what????? 

So far, I've been a failure as ** a sailor, an electrician and a chef ** but a really fantastic ** drunken sharpshooter, getting 3/3 my first attempt **.

I've also ** almost suffocated several times, nearly drowned, been poisoned ** and now ** eaten by a Tyranosaurus Rex ** !

Maybe that'll teach me to stop touching everything ...

Nah, it's fun almost dying (thank heavens for the green button).  But not even the little green button can save you from ** being eaten by a dinosaur ** ! It just all happened so quickly!

So my advice to you all is ...

SAVE, SAVE, SAVE AND SAVE AGAIN!

So, now back to my last save, fortunately just before my unfortunate and premature death, as I now save before and after doing anything and everything!    The problem is that I'm not even sure what I'm supposed to be doing there.  I only hope it's where I'm going to find what I need. 

Oh, Anki, please continue.  This game just gets better and better the more I play it and the more I get used to moving around using the portals!

What I didn't realise before I got ** eaten ** is that I needed the ** invisibility potion ** !  Silly me.    So what I was doing was right, it was just that the ** big, bad, scary dinosaur ** could ** see me ** and so I couldn't get what I needed without being ** gobbled up by the ravenous T-Rex ** !

But I only just worked out how to use the moon map to jump!    Sure saves wandering around the desolate moonscape, trying to find places the old-fashioned walking way.

ETA:  I forgot to say good luck with BPM!  Don't forget that the weekend '99cent' code probably still works all day today - but I haven't tried it myself - should you wish to avail yourself of that deal.  Have you got any games you plan on buying today?  I think I'm going to wait until next week as my next lot of PCCs don't expire until the 20th and I'll wait and see what SEs are released before next Monday.  And it's not as if I don't have 1000s of games lined up, waiting for me to play them.  Okay, maybe a slight exaggeration ... but not much!

Love reading your posts, stusue, they crack me up.  Glad you are ahead of us giving us insight into the game.  As to Task 8, now I don't feel so inadequate since others are having same problems as me.  Congrats on getting through Task 8, barre.  I did find cookbook early in the game but didn't have it with me when I went into space so had to go back.  Not knowing what I was doing, I had to throw away stuff at first and start over.  Didn't realize I could keep the sauce for all recipes and once didn't have a raw egg and was not sure how to continue.  Also garlic cloves stumped me in one, to the point I had to look at WT.  Finally got it all together and enjoyed the many attempts ~ kinda like me in a real kitchen (lol).

I'm going to wait till later today to try the ship game again, now that I know how to do it, it should go a lot faster but will definitely, save, save, save.  Hope the rest of Task 8 doesn't take as long.

Going to look at BPM and probably use half my PCC's today and save the rest for next Monday as I am cancelling for sure before the 20th.  This group play has helped me focus more on playing and hope to start whittling down my hoard of games.

tee, group plays actually get me to play some of the games I've had in my GM ... sorry, Game App ... since the days of the primeval soup.  They also get me to finish them and to focus on them, which is really helpful.  It's also more fun knowing that others are playing the same game as you and discussing it with them. 

Even if it's just to let everyone know what a 'failure' you are and how often and how gruesomely you've died...
