Barre, I got the CE of The Torment of Mont Triste as I loved the demo and it is one of the very few games I bought (in a BOGOF, of course) and played straight away as I couldn't wait to play it.  It's not a very challenging game and isn't in my top 5 but I really enjoyed it.  I liked finding the goblins, some of which were well hidden, and which are added around the doorway in the achievements area (it's not a room as it's outside).  I'm also really glad - for once! - that you can replay all the HOSs (20) and minigames (46!) as I skipped at least one of the minigames as I just couldn't work out how to put the fire out so thought I'd just try it again once I'd finished.  The first one is insultingly easy (but then the object is used in the next HOS, which I thought was great) but some of them take a bit of thought and some time and are fun.  Some of them were also unique!  I also loved the no-gravity room with the HOS there as that was fun.  I don't regret getting the CE, however, getting the SE would be fine as the bonus is separate to the main game and takes place in a separate area (up the stairs that are blocked in the main game).

Yes using the coins and upgrading for the squirrel is an achievement, three I believe. I just wasn't thinking of the coins as collectibles.  I am enjoying the game quite a bit.  I think the one achievement that is going to give me a hard time is finishing 10 puzzles after the skip has recharged.  So you have to dither around before finishing the puzzles.  And I keep forgetting to do that, so I'm not sure how many I did that on.  Or how many puzzles are left.

I finished Living Legends, it was a good game.  Fun with lots to do.  I did get every achievement which made me and my pet squirrel quite happy.  I think I'll play a little Brunhilda or Spooky Bonus or Zombie Solitaire and pick a new game tomorrow. I'm thinking maybe Reincarnation Back to Reality or Resurrection New Mexico.  Both I've had kicking around for quite a while.

I got the Torment of Mont Triste as well as a CE, so I look forward to everyone's take on it.

(I did get a little annoyed in Living Legends in the bonus section.  I had to use a hint for the first time.  In the HOs they called a paw print a STEP and a tassle a BRUSH.  I would never have gotten them otherwise.  There was one other that made me go huh?)

Lilyr, congrats on finishing Spooky Bonus again in timed mode.  

Congrats to  Oscar, Tirama, Meg, Anki, Sue, and anyone else I forgot to mention....for finishing your games.  Nice to see everyone making progress.

I am still playing Call of the Ages, and so far I've gotten to level 32 in Challenge mode....this level is particularly tough because you have to do it within a certain number of moves without the use of any power-ups.

I must be caught up in one of Dr. Blackmore's tentacles because I can't keep away from Haunted Halls.  It is so stupid how when I am doing other things I keep on thinking of playing Haunted Halls: Fears From Childhood. I finished the main game, now I am rescuing Tim's Sister in the bonus. Just one more game left in the series Revenge of Doctor Blackmore and then I can think of other games.

  These CE's back in 2011 are sure bare bones when comparing them to what the CE's are nowadays.

Looks like BF is getting prepared for their new Mystery Case Files game with today's sale.  I still have to play Dire Grove & Shadow Lake yet.
