This is an unusual situation. I have no casual games waiting for me to play. Currently the new games on Big Fish are either a type I'm not interested in Match 3, Time Management, or they're the standard versions of Collector's Editions I've already played.


Currently Playing:
Adventure Game: Broken Age
Darkside: Star Wars: The Old Republic

Wow, that is an unusual situation. It would appear that the system has broken down. lol

Have you looked through the entire list of Collector's Editions? It's possible that there's an older one that you might have overlooked.

Big Fish just posted on Facebook that the upcoming CEs this week will be Grim Facade 7: Monster in Disguise and The Secret Order: Buried Kingdom.

Ditto GT. I like spooky, creepy, eerie games--AND a great storyline AND great artwork/graphics.
Slim pickings lately.

While not a casual game, Kathy Rain has a lot to like at a great price. You'll see some pleasantly nostalgic nods to Gabriel Knight in the context of an original plot with a modern and engaging player character investigating her grandfather's coma and subsequent death. Pixelated AGS type games have to have highly developed characters and grab you by the shirt and pull you in stories for me to give them the time of day. Kathy Rain fills that bill.

GuybrushThreepwood: I have also had that problem. What I sometimes do, is search PC games for what I like, look at the ratings, make sure I've not played them; it sometimes works. What I find disappointing, is you'll wait until Thurs. or Sat.for a CE and find out it is one of the games you don't like, i.e., time management, building games, etc. I know it's only fair, but...

Big Fish does announce the two CEs for the week on Facebook every Monday (if there's a holiday on a Monday, then they announce them on Tuesday). And you don't have to have a Facebook account in order to see the info.

You're welcome. It does help if you wish to plan your purchases. Very occasionally there can be a release-schedule change from what has been announced, but in the last few months anyway it has been very consistent - what is listed is what you get. wave

Marian: I just tried searching Facebook and don't know how to go about it without joining/signing in. I'm one of those privacy freaks, and don't like my private life on line. How do I go about it?

Thank you.
