Re: Finish your games challenge - 2014

Stuesue, regarding your list I don´t have comments of all but here´s my opinion:
Dangerous Games SE  (I bought the CE on the last sale and regret it)
Mythic Wonders SE  
Witches Legacy CE
Haunted Train SE
Amarantine I bought the CE but haven´t played it
Order of the Light   on my to buy list too but haven´t decided myself
Myths of the World not for me (although I love Eipix other games)
Mystery Tales playing the CE right now and like it
9 and 10 haven´t decided yet either
Dark Parables  not for me (didn´t like the fuzzy graphics)
Dark Romance not for me
13 and 14 am trying today probably CE for MT
15 not for me (I´m bad at Nancy but have Tomb of the Lost Queen unplayed in GM)
Bluebeard BPM fo rme



I´m downloading like crazy at Zylom....
But they state that they don´t have enough translated games so they´re releasing the English versions instead (I don´t bother, that´s just as usual )

Re: Finish your games challenge - 2014

Meg - I'm very pleased for you.  It's always nice to hear when good things happen to people. The first enigmatis is a distant memory for me.  I should start keep some sort of notes on the series.  And I can't wait to play the new Raincliff

Stusue my list pretty much mirrors yours.  Nothing has been demo'd so I'll be hemming and hawing about the games.  I'll probably end up with all of them!  I think I'll do what you did and post a list and get comments on the games that are different from yours. I'm going to need a cap I think, maybe 10 games, CE, that will be $70. I really should try to be more discerning, but they are just all so sparkly and new! Lol I've got all weekend to decide.

Re: Finish your games challenge - 2014

I think I'm going to skip this sale.  I'd have to buy 6 games to make my punch cards come out even and the games would just be sitting in my inventory.  I'm just going to be playing Antique Road Trip: American Dreamin' until the Olympics are over and/or until my computer gets fixed.

Yesterday my hard drive crashed.  Not sure what happened: Norton had been acting up for over a week, DH thought he had it straightened out last weekend.  It behaved for a while, then yesterday morning it gave me grief again.  I did everything it asked me to, it downloaded a patch, but to apply that patch I needed to reboot.

Well, in addition to the Norton patch, Microsoft applied updates, samsung applied updates, java applie updates, Microsoft nagged my about WIN8.1, something called Powerchute was giving me messages, and the end result was that the machine would no longer run.

Samsung is sending me a recovery disc free (misnamed, all that disc does is put your computer back into the state it was when it left the factory) and DH ordered me a new hard drive (about $100)which he will install if the recovery disc doesn't work.

I used his machine (WIN8.1) last night to keep up with ART (thank goodness I had signed up for an account on the cloud which allows me to sign into the game on different computers and not lose my progress) and today I'm using my old laptop (WIN7).

I store all my data on an external drive, so that's okay, but I really hate jumping from computer to computer.

Re: Finish your games challenge - 2014

Sounds like pain in the butt tiramasue I hope it gets fixed soon.

I do have 21 CEs sitting to demo.  I definitely am not getting them all! I'll have to sift thru them and have a look at what the extras are.  The ones I want to get the SE of I'll just use coupons.

Re: Finish your games challenge - 2014

Wow, Tirama, it's like you were psychic about that cloud option, wasn't it?  I have no idea what I'm going to get, I haven't really been paying attention to the new games the last month or so with all the drama that's been going on in my private life.  I'll have to see how many PCCs I have hanging around, I think it's just one, and figure that into my calculations. 
I'm wondering what everyone thinks are the most CE worthy games?  I'm going to be mostly getting SEs but I might get 2 CEs.  I have to go make a list but I don't know where my BF notebook ended up after the move.  I think it's in my closet somewhere.  I'll be gone all day Monday so all I'll have time to do is come home and buy, I need my list done today or tomorrow.  Don't think I'll  have time to demo, either.
 


No matter how much I complain, I'm grateful for all I have.

Re: Finish your games challenge - 2014

I decided on the following CEs:

Myths of the World Spirit Wolf
European Mystery the Face of Envy
Haunted Halls Nightmare Dweller
Mythic Wonders The Philosophers Stone
mystery Tales The Lost Hope
Amaranthine Voyage:The Living Mountain
Mystery Trackers Raincliffs Phantoms
Mystery of the Ancients Three Guardians

I'm going to demo Botanica Earthbound and Order of the Light before buying the CE I read there is some tech problems and I didn't like the first Botanica too much but the CE sounds appealing.  All the rest are going to the SE side and get later.

Re: Finish your games challenge - 2014

I'm going to place my order Monday, that will give me 32 punches, so 5 pccs and 2 punches.  I might get Shadow Shelter and Legacy Witch Island to round it out.

Re: Finish your games challenge - 2014

I received a beta from BFG for the new Danse Macabre.  And I keep,waiting for Emberwing to be released.  I demo'd that , seems like months ago and really liked it.

Re: Finish your games challenge - 2014

I been reading reviews.  They drive me bonkers.  One person says the minis are hard, the next says they're too easy.  I'm not really enthusiastic about anything.  Guess that means I should stick to the SEs.  I'm thinking

Myths/World Spirit Wolf
Mysterium Lake Bliss
Amarinthe Voyage Living Mtn
Dark Parables Sky Kingdom
Mystery of the Ancients the new one
Hidden Exp. Hope Diamond
latest Otherworld
Nightmare at sea, newest one
Marcus' Memories

Some of these might not even be SEs yet, I'll have to check some more.  I found one notebook but I haven't found my little one where I write my purchases.

Re: Finish your games challenge - 2014

wendy - I think everybody in this forum who has played Hidden Exp. Hope Diamond has raved about it.  That one is definitely CE-worthy. 

By Nightmare at sea, do you mean Nightmares from the Deep: The Siren's Call?  If you enjoyed the first one, you should like the second one.  I can't check out the CE goodies for you because I played that game on my other laptop.
