I forgot to mention that the free game today on the Game Giveway of the Day site is Hotel Mogul: Las Vegas. Just download and it's yours to keep - the full version.

OMG, I can't believe I've finally managed to beat my opponent on whatever level I'm on in Chapter 7 of Puzzle Hero! I think it took me about 2 hours as it took me longer than the entire F1 race I was watching while I was playing. I didn't think I'd ever beat him! I'd think I'd made a good match, not letting him get any good matches, when lo and behold down would fall battle tiles just for him to hit me with once again.
But I did it, I finally did it!!!!!!!!
Now I just wonder how hard the next opponent is going to be...

I finished Fill and Cross: Trick or Treat and started replaying Phantasmat Collector's Edition as a lead-up to finally playing Phantasmat: Crucible Peak Collector's Edition. I had forgotten just how many HO scenes were in that game.
Regarding sales, last year we had the infamous (in my opinion) buy the new MCF CE and get as many half-price CE's as you want provided you buy them all on the same order sale, and on Black Friday there was some sort of sale, probably on SE's, but it wasn't the previously traditional Felix Favorites at 2.99.
If there is a true BOGO this month, I'm considering giving it a miss. I really pigged out on games in October, I'm down to 14 GCC's, and need to be very choosy in using them.
I know what would make a super Black Friday sale but I doubt we'll get it.

I bought The Beast and the Nightingale in this weekend's Yet Another Sale; I was going to get it tomorrow, anyway. I love fairy tales, and "Beauty and the Beast" is my absolute favorite.
Who else is playing Call of the Ages? I expected a "Path of Hercules" clone, but this one has added several fiendishly challenging elements. I love it.
I finished Zombie Solitaire again; ended up with much more cash this time. And started again. Hope I'm not getting obsessed.

This game sounds like Puzzle Quest, I'm going to have to get it eventually. I played PQ 1 and 2 from April until September.
Since I have no cash I've been shopping the BOGO at the French site. I was going to just skip it, but then I was on the BFG Facebook page and someone said they had a PCC they would give away to the first taker. I got right on it and she gave me the PCC It expires tomorrow. So I laid new plans
I just used a GCC on the French site for the SEs of Stray Souls Stolen Memories and Witches Legacy Lair of the Witch Queen so that gives me 2 punches. If I stay up until 3am I can cash in the code the nice lady gave me for 2 more punches. Then if no other good sale happens I can borrow a code to use on a Monday, get my last 2 punches and pay back the code. So I can get 4 SEs for the price of a GCC and a little generosity of strangers
Gawd, it's so nice to get a few new games even though they're not that new and I have plenty of old ones to play
ETA That was weird.... I had to go through hoops to get the English versions downloaded the other day, today I already had the English demo of Witches and when I d/l the French version it activated the English version, easy as pie. But the demo wasn't a full version. What the heck happened? How did it get the full English version? Who cares, I guess, just that it's weird...

WTG, Wendy! I don't understand what you mean by "cash in" the code if you stay up until 3 am buy it sounds like you've got it all worked out.
Puzzle Hero is a bit like Puzzle Quest (both of which I got during the French 2-bonus-punch sale the other day) but it's much easier. I don't know if they M3 part is easier but the gameply seems to be easier. I've only got 4 more battles to go (and the Arcade mode for any further battles should I wish to continue playing) then I'll try Puzzle Quest. I thought I'd start with the easier one then attempt Puzzle Quest, which seems much more complicated. But Puzzle Hero is heaps of fun to play ... except, of course, when you keep on getting beaten time and time again until you manage finally manage to defeat a particular monster.

Yeah, Wendy, as I said, not all games work the same way when you buy from a foreign site and try to get the English version activated. I love it when it works as easy as this one did for you!

This time on "Zombie," I decided to see how far I could get without buying any power-ups. It kind of bothered me that, when I paid to replace all the wild cards, I lost the advantage of the ones you get during the game, unless I'd already used that one. So far, I've gotten through the three "home" sections, and am ready to hit the street.

I played a bit of 12 Labours of Hercules today. It is fun so far. Been able to get all 3 stars on all the levels so far. I liked the mini game of hazing to defeat that many heads of that giant snake. Whatever it is called.

OMG, I just did the minipuzzle I just said I could never do, the one where you have to get 9 colored squares into each corner. I wish you could see me now, my chest is all puffed out with pride and I have a big goofy smile on my face
ETA: Just went back to the bonus game of Dark Strokes. I had to do an HO for the third time, and there is a puzzle piece I need in there so I know I'm going to have to do it at least one more time. Crazy
