Tirama -- me too re being a social game newbie. I think I just enter your code. Maybe you have to accept me. In the game my name is anneclaire (longish story). Next time I go back I'll see what my code is. 100? Yikes!
I just wanted a friend to finish the quest.
My code for Antique Road Trip: American Dreamin' is 774 3081 and my name is TiramaSue. I'm going to try and start Awakening Kingdoms tonight.

Tirama, PCC redeemed and end-January-expiring PCC PMed to you. Hope that suits you!
Now I really have to go to bed as it's nearly 1 am and I can barely think straight.
Have a great gaming day everyone!

Someone (Wendy?) said that the only Achievement you needed to buy in FAIRWAY TEE TO PLAY only cost $0.99. Not true. If you are patient and get it early, you can get the 3rd mulligan card as a wild card and use all three in the round and get the Trophy. I did.
I meant a power up. There's one where it turns all the cards face up, I believe it was, that you couldn't buy with your golf bucks and had to use real money, but I can live without it. I have no idea why anyone would spend any money on that game at all, there just doesn't seem to be any need. I like it

I finished League of Light Bad Omen CE . I really enjoyed it. Graphics were very nice and the puzzles were decent. The story really grabbed you. One of the achievements was to answer a few questions about the game. I didn't get all the achievements, one was to get all the mosaic pieces and frankly I'm not sure whether you had to look for them or they were somehow awarded, I seemed to be missing some.
I started suburban Mysteries Labrinyth of the Past. Has anyone played this? I'm really liking it. The opening is quite creepy. It seems to mix live action with some comic book type graphic. Then the other graphics are quite nice. HO scenes are well done with things quite well hidden and interactive elements.
I have not played any of the F2P games as of yet on BFG. I imagine Fairway and Township both fit in to that category. I wait it out on Township and don't plan on spending any money. I have spent $20 on fairway in the past but won't spend any again I always seem to have enough to open the courses especially with the replay now on the regular ones. Both these are the IPad ones and this Fairway is a dl game I got for free. Another recent dl for the IPad free was European Scent of Desire.

The IPad always seems to have such good deals, I saw several nice free games for it lately. I got Christmasville for free last week on my Android tablet. I have Nightmare Adventures Witches Prison and one of Adventures of Montezuma, it might be Treasures, it's M3 and pretty good. I mainly use it for solitaire at bedtime. I have lots of those free games that I never play anymore. Oh, Ellen Degenerous has a free app out, it's the charades game she plays on the show. You hold the tablet in front of your forehead, you can't see it but the other person can and they act out the word on the tablet and you guess. When they tell you that you guessed right you tilt the tablet down, then back up to get another word. If you pass, you tilt it backwards. It's a great game.
I have on "The Voice" because I'm having a little game burn-out, I've been into it pretty heavy the last few days.

I finished the bonus chapter of Enigmatis: The Mists of Ravenwood Collector's Edition. Not sure what I'll play next.
I tried Dark Manor FTP. I don't like it. Tried the Awakening FTP. I like Boomzap's style of FTP games. Still need to look at Farm Up.

Re FTP games - I read ages ago on Pond Friends or one of the other forums about people complaining on FB about the Casino game. One person was saying that he/she was spending $300 a day on chips but wasn't winning anything. Another had spent $3000 and hadn't won anything. I can't imagine anyone being stupid enough to spend that sort of money but, even if it's exaggerated, they're obviously still spending an awful lot of money on chips!
I was just wondering if they realised that you don't actually win any money but only more chips - all the money goes to BFG - unless there's something I don't know. So that's where BFG gets all their money.
Now that's interesting. I too wonder what they thought when they realized it wasn't for real money. That is, of course, if they were being truthful about their spending.
I was in Walmart looking at their pc games and found Big Fish Casino games selling for $20.00. I thought it strange that they were charging for it since we all got this game for free the time it d/l without our permission.

I'm so happy to see Farmington Tales 2: Winter Crop out today as a soft release. I'm getting it for sure. The TGT Alex Hunter: Lord of the Mind looks good too. It's a SE with CE features because there are collectibles, bonus games, SG, all in the game. I've d/l it to try and if it's good, I'm getting it too.

And I'm sure the sales they have all the time on coins would entice people to buy big, thinking they're getting them really cheaply at half price, whereas they're free if you have the patience to wait. And when you only need spend $1 at a time on coins, I'm sure a lot of people don't realise how much they end up spending. And there are a lot of impatient people who'd be playing these games, I'm sure.
Disclaimer: I've only tried one FTP game, a straight HOG, and was bored stupid so gave up after 10 mins and deleted it. I've checked out one or 2 others but I found the quality in all areas nowhere near all my unplayed download games so will stick with those.
But have you noticed that GameZebo now only rarely reviews PC games? All they review are mobile games and just let players review PC games themselves, if they even bother to make a page for any PC games. However, recently I noticed that they'd actually added their review for a PC game and so I eagerly opened the page to see what they'd said and lo and behold, they'd only reviewed it because it was also a mobile game and they'd based their review on the mobile apps for the game. They only gave it 3/5 because as it was a HOG, and you can't see HOs on such small screens, they gave it a really low score. They totally ignored the game on the PC, where it would have got a much higher score as it was a really good game!So GameZebo is now useles for PC game reviews, as there aren't any.
I deleted Gamezebo from my favorites quite a while ago. They had been on a downward slide for a while, the people reviewing the PC games seemed to be clueless about what they were playing.reviewing.
As for the F2P, have you tried the two by Boomzap? The American Dreamin' one plays somewhat similar to the Gardnescape/Lagoona type of game, so if you liked those, you may like it.
