Re: What Casual Games are You Playing, Continued

I gave up my BigFish membership a while ago, not having time to play and finding the games repetitive. Most of the ‘casuals’ I play not are more like Escape games with lots of puzzles. Recently I found I good old fashioned harder type casual on Steam, so I thought I would mention it—Arcana Sands of ...

Re: What Adventure Game Are You Playing

I am playing Riddle of the Sphinx (Remastered). It will be my 3rd play through of the game, and I'm looking forward to seeing the new and improved version. I've also got Keepsake loaded up on my new computer. I was happy to see that my 15 year old DVD installed smoothly onto my new rig and the game ...

I have recently started playing games again, since I got a new computer system - my last was a Win 7 that could run XP with a CRT monitor. Some of you may remember me as a big Riven/...

I finally played the Neverhood this year and had a hoot! There is nothing else quite like it, and it is a visual and auditory treat.
Nice review, FGM!

I think one of the reasons I'm not fond of cartoony 3rd person games is because the inventory puzzles are often illogical. More often than not I resort to the try everything on anything to get by. I suppose you could still call that problem solving, in a way. Then, of course, if nothing works, you k...

Runaway is a 3rd person point and click game. At first I thought it was 'cartoony', but that was soon dispelled as the sto...

Nice review. I also played this in the past year. The cursors are the best, and there's lots of fun exploring the creepy rooms.

Thanks for your timely review, BJ. I am disappointed that it is not of the same caliber as the others.
