Barre,  Playing  Zombie Solitaire for the second time,  so far I don't seem to be doing much better.  (Darn!  it is hard to stop,  isn't it?)  My goal is to use fewer  "coins,"  so I'll have more for the harder levels.  But.  I can't stop using  the  "wild tombstones"  for a long enough run
to get the 3x  bonus.  Haven't tried the one that gives you a new deck,  but I will.  I mostly use the  "slap."
   Yes,  I love  Imperial Island,  especially those amazing graphics!  I finally reached 100%,  and yes,  now I know it's an endless game.  Oh,  well.
 

I've been playing Dark Strokes(that doesn't sound right, it sounds dirty) Sins of the Father CE off and on all day.  I just quit for the night and looked at the strategy guide to see how far I was.  I'm just starting Chapter 7 of 14!  Played 6 chapters and 8 to go, plus the bonus.  Quite a long game.  It's been pretty good, too.  I had to skip one puzzle, the one where you have a square that's usually 6x6 and you have to get all the same colored pieces into each corner.  Usually I'm pretty good at similar moving puzzles but the kind like this I just can't figure out how to move the last few pieces.  I have to skip it every time.  I can do the slider ones to make the picture but I just can't get this type.  Oh, well.
  I keep almost giving up on Farm Up.  I'm mid 30s level and about all there is to do is grow wheat, process it into flour, and then process it into something else.  Wheat costs almost a thousand dollars a plant and you need 3 of them to make 1 flour and you need 3 or more flours to make anything, some things take 8 or more.  Then when you finish whatever quest it is, and it takes days,  they give you way less money than what you put into growing the wheat!  I'm slowly going broke!  The only thing you can do is take a day off of wheat and plant some turnips to sell for a profit now and then.  The first 20 some levels are really fun, then it just turns into pure drudgery.  And there' no real ending to the game.  

The keyboard on the PC really sucks, the keys don't go down easily and I end up not getting letters pressed all the way down and I'm tired of going back and correcting.  I usually fix it, but if I miss some, you all know what happened now.  I really like how well people on our thread write and spell, so sorry aout my stupid keyboard,

Hi.  I'm sill slogging away.  I'm replaying JOAN OF ARC because i like it a lot and because I wanted a game where I could actually finish!  CHRONICLES OF ALBIAN is almost finished (I hope)!  I'm on the screen where you get the fairy trees.  Even so I have 2 more items to buy and I'll need 25,000 more gold.  I did manage to get the trophy (and more importantly the golf bucks) for using 3 mulligans on one course.  I got the 3rd mulligan early with a wild card and then just deliberately used them.  I'll never finish ZOMBIE SOLITAIRE unless I start over. I'm in the sewers (level 33) and I've been there forever! I guess I should save my money and try to buy a new deck. I used up my whole demo on THE BEAST OF LYCAN ISLE and like it.  I'll buy that and SPOOKY BONUS tomorrow.  That will leave me with one punch but that's okay.

I'm only counting games that I've played for the first time as "done".  If I'm lucky I'll finish one more for a total of 4 this month! yikes.

I finished Zombie Solitaire !!!  and still had so much money left over...45,000 I think.  The trick is to buy the new deck or what they call New Stable.  I didn't buy any of the others because it's not worth it, especially the "slap" because it always appears so you get it for free.  The slap only zaps one card, but the new deck will always give you a Perfect score.  So I buy 3 new decks all the time, and sometimes I re-stock my nos. 2-9.  Hope my tip helps.  I may replay one day but not so soon.  Now I'll try and finish off Spooky Bonus.

Wow!  Come on BOGOF!! I'm getting excited reading all your descriptions of games!  I didn't try CALL of ther AGES.  I did get LAGOONA2 but I'm glad there's a fix.  After playing 1st Albian I think it will be a long time until I play LAGOONA 2 or ALBIAN 2 or even GARDENSCAPES 2.

Sandhan you made me LOL with your "start over; you'll be back in the sewers in no time." comment.

Thanks for the tip barregar.  I guess I really should start over.
