I got The Watchmaker in a trade a couple of years ago and after playing (or trying to) some of today's games it is looking better to me all the time! If the trend continues it might make it up to one of my favorites, too.

In the last year? OK, these were Dead Reefs, The Lost Crown, and Overclocked. All three had fine stories is why.

I liked the Watchmaker. So there. But the best ever is of course Azrael's Tear.

Dead Reefs, The Lost Crown and Runaway 1 & 2

In the last year? Hmmmm...

The Lost Crown
Dead Reefs
Next Life

hmm hard choice to choose,
lost crown
evil under the sun
Culpa Innata

and for fourth choice
a tie between Ankh 2 and Jack Keane

Edit..................
oh shoot, I just remembered Runaway 1 and Runaway 2 were great

1. The Awakened (I haven't played Nemesis yet)
2. The Lost Crown
3. Culpa Innata

played most of the games chosen. But I've been recently playing lest recent games and still my favorite.1) The longest journey 2) AuraII and recent one 3) Culpa Innata (kept on desktop a saved game of scopa that I play frequently) finally I liked Rhem 3 very much.Sali

sali, isn't Scopa from AnaCapri: The Dream? I was addicted to that too! Kept going back to that guy to play more cards, he must have been so fed up with me.

Sorry about that, of course it is from Anacapri not culpa innata. Thanks Rushes for reminding me . The third game that I preferred was really Culpa Innata and Had fun to roam around AnaCapri but I thought it was a bit long. Sali
