megwoman -- I'm playing SPOOKY BONUS too. And I stayed up until 4 AM Wednesday morning! I just love this game. I only have one more board to go, I bought everything and the yard is decorated. I'm soo glad it has a relaxed mode. I never could have done this timed.

I finally got to buy some games Can't get them downloaded in English yet, but still, it felt good to buy them. I got all SE versions
Apothecarium
Portal of Evil
Reveries 2 Sisters
House of 1000 Doors Serpent
Dark Parables Final Cinderella
Zombie Solitaire
Rite of Passage Child of the Forest
Legacy of the Gallows

Forgive the misspelled titles, I'm working off scratchpapter. I believe I used 4 Customer Service coupons and got 8 games. Only real life cost was a $6.99 for membership and a GCC that will eventually get redeemed during a BOGO. Zombie Solitaire is the only game I've managed to get installed, though. Maybe CS will give me another coupon for all the headache I'm going through trying to install them. How has everyone else done it? My games are large games so they have trial samples, not the whole file.

Lol Wendy, I didn't read the thread I just made an assumption and you know what they say about assuming, lol, serves me right.

I get to start a new game tonight. I'm thinking Off the Record, Linden Shades or Grim Tales Bloody Mary. And maybe a few levels of Spooky Bonus, or 10, or just one more. I'll be like Lily up til 4!

My mom was thrilled with her new games.

I picked up Spooky Bonus in the spooky sale since so many like it. It is not for me, but my husband. He recently deleted Candy Crush off his phone because it got ridiculously hard like getting 100,000 points in 25 moves and then you would have to beg for moves from others. He got 3 more moves and still wasn't able to get more than 80,000 so he just deleted it out. Anyways he seemed to like the M3 games so I got him this.

I played Spooky Bonus on GameHouse last week (I didn't buy it) and I found it a lot of fun. However, I also found it very easy and short for an M3. Once you've finished there are no extra levels or modes of play, like a Challenge mode, which I found really disappointing and so was glad I didn't buy it.

My 2 fav M3s by far are Cursed House (only the original, not the sequel) and The Snow. I love the music in Cursed House and found each room different and some of them are very, very challenging. The Snow also has great variety and an actual story and, even though the main Adventure game is really short, it has so many other modes of play that you really get your money's worth. And I don't think there'll be enough time in my life to ever manage to get to the Bonus Challenge levels as I can't see myself ever getting 3 gold on each of the Challenge levels to access them. But boy do I have fun trying!

I am still playing Spooky Bonus but as it progresses it gets a little monotonous....it's the same all over, board after board, and I couldn't go on with it for too long, so I guess I will still be playing this one long after Halloween is over. Looks like I won't be picking up Holiday Bonus M3 because it's going to be the same as this one, with no extra special modes.

I agree with you, Sue, one of my fav. M3 is Cursed House because every room is a different mode of play. I also enjoyed Cursed House 2. The Snow's challenge mode is very challenging!!! I'm still at it. The next M3 I'm playing is Call of The Ages.

Oh well, I hope he likes it. At least I only paid half price for Spooky Bonus. I really don't know much about M3 games since I don't play them.

sunshinej, don't get me wrong, I loved playing Spooky Bonus and had heaps of fun - and I'd play it again, easily. I was just disappointed in how relatively short and easy it was and that there were no extra levels or different modes once you'd played the main game. But it was heaps of fun and that's why I wish there'd been more. I played it over 2 days, although I didn't find it monotonous like Barre as M3s are the games I play in front of the TV as you don't have to concentrate too much so can still follow whatever you're watching. But not the fantastic challenge levels in The Snow, of course, as they're timed and really hard ... at least for me ... to get 3 gold as you really have to concentrate.

Barre, how does Cursed House 2 compare to Cursed House 1? I loved the original one but wasn't thrilled when I played the demo of the second one. I was waiting for the same excitement I felt when I played the first one but never found it. So I'd be really interested to hear how you found it.

As for those challenge levels in The Snow! I've finally managed to get 1 star in the puzze that I just couldn't finish in time ... I finally worked out a trick to beat it ... but I can't imagine ever getting 3 stars in it! I am getting 3 in some of them, though, but mostly 2. However, I've now discovered another one that I just find impossible!

I would also really like to know what you think of Call of the Ages as you play it. GameHouse has the Platinum version and I'm thinking of using my last coupon code to get it but I'm just not sure. I've read that the extra 60 bonus levels you get in the Platinum version are only opened as you get stars in the extra mode for each level. The person who wrote that said that she only managed to get enough stars to play 10 of the 60 levels. Another reviewer said that when the boards get larger the squares get smaller, but I doubt that would be a problem playing it on a big screen. I finally worked out how to get past those sand levels but I'm not sure if the game would get a bit monotonous as the boards are so small - at least as much as I've played in the demo - and, as you found Spooky Bonus monotonous, I'd really like to get your feedback.

So thank you in advance! (I know what a lovely person you are so I'm sure you'll let me know how you feel about the games.)

I loved SPOOKY BONUS. I finished all 100 levels untimed and now I'm replaying in timed mode. I don't know how far I'll get.

Bad news for October. I bought 15 games but only finished 5. I know part of the problem is that I'm playing two F2Ps and the extremely long ALBIAN 1. I can't play that too long because the items are sometimes sooo small. I hope I'm on the last set of things to buy.
