Re: It's Easter at the Manor!

Is there a way to make the bat optional, or to pin it at the top of the screen (or slam it against a wall) if it gets annoying?

Re: ROTS Enhanced Edition Sale

The game has been reduced permanently to $19.99. Apparently the developer listened to the public!

Re: What Adventure Game Are You Playing

I just loaded up two games on my Windows 10...Baron Wittard and Ceville...two drastically different games. I initially could not launch Baron Wittard as my Webroot antivirus prevented the installation of the DXS studio player. Fortunately, I caught the message and even allowing the file in the Webro...

Re: What Adventure Game Are You Playing

I used the camera on Nancy's cell phone for important clues. Also used a print screen function on my laptop so I could cut and paste sections of a code to manipulate them to determine the character sequence. The last puzzle is timed (bomb) so I windowed the game. That way I could click outside the g...

Re: What Adventure Game Are You Playing

I replayed Silent Spy as Amateur. There are more hints available if needed and the puzzles are a bit easier. I actually found the puzzle where you had to search for pieces of a code breaker in someone's room harder on Amateur level than on Master (they were more visible in Master IMO). Hope you enjo...

Re: Disney+

I watch a lot of National Geographic. My favorite show is Life Below Zero...that follows a number of people who live in relative isolation...in self sustaining environments. Those folks are amazing. The newer generation ones aren't quite as compelling.

Re: What Adventure Game Are You Playing

GL...after the replay, I'll let you know. I did find that if you proceeded in the game logically...following phone leads, conversations, etc...one thing led to another. I did resort to UHS a couple of times either because I was impatient or I missed a hotspot. I was always on the right track though....

Re: What Adventure Game Are You Playing

I finished the Silent Spy. Excellent game! There are some really tricky puzzles. Not so easy. There are timed sequences...which I hate...but they are doable. One where you have to break in a phone by completing a pattern. You have seven minutes before you could get caught. I messed up because I used...

Re: What Adventure Game Are You Playing

Am part way through Nancy Drew The Silent Spy. The story introduces you to Nancy's late mother, Kate Drew, who was a spy for MI5 and was killed in an "accident" years earlier. The setting is Glasgow, Scotland. I'm enjoying the accents. I'm playing on master level so the puzzles are a bit h...

Re: Middletoe has died

Such sad news. Thank you for sharing this here, Drac. I just posted over at Gameboomers. I had no idea that middletoe and Jenny100 were one and the same. She will be greatly missed by those of us whom she helped in these forums and obviously by her family and friends. She's no longer suffering, in t...

Re: What Adventure Game Are You Playing

Will do when I resume! Having a break from the to-ing and fro-ing of Keepsake and playing Lost Land: The Golden Curse for the second time and really it puts Keepsake to shame. Good graphics, puzzles and, best of all, a map for short cuts!! :D Lost Lands is one of the best Casual game series ever ma...

Re: What social media do people use?

I use Facebook, but I don't really have an active page. I mostly respond to posts of friends and family as well as things going on in the neighborhood. It's how I just found out that my high school class is planning a 50 year reunion for the fall of this year. That will be cool! I also have a Linked...

Re: Disney+

I've noticed that there are quite a few "plus" channels cropping up lately. Some of the shows I like watching on HGTV are moving to Discover+, which is annoying. I know what you mean, Lady K. I have Spectrum gold...which gives me a ton to watch. Some of the self standing apps are free wit...

Re: What Adventure Game Are You Playing

Decided on a Nancy Drew from my pile...#29 The Silent Spy as my next game after finishing 15 Days. I initially was going to play The Filmmaker, but after installing it on my Windows 10 laptop, I got a few repeated error messages. The game did launch, but when I exited, the screen resolution did not ...
