I must be mad or addicted - maybe both! crazy

I have 8 unplayed games on the bookshelf:
The Experiment, Jack Orlando, Jazz and Faust, ND - Haunting of Castle Malloy, Nikopol, Sinking Island, Traitors Gate, Traitor Gate 2.

And guess what I just did tonight? Ordered 4 more.
Everlight, Nostradamus, Outcry and Rhiannon.

No wonder I don't get much sleep
Only people here at Gameboomers know what this addiction is about. Right? rotfl

Maybe I should buy shares in Dave's site. lol

I'm right there with you, BAAGS. My problem is the adventure companies can't keep up with me. I am always looking for new games to play.

I would recommend Jack Orlando, Sinking Island and Nostradamus. I can't get the Experiment to run right; Jazz and Faust is an old game but OK; I quit playing ND games when they started having the alarm clock; I didn't like Traitors Gate; don't know anything about Everlight or Rhiannon; am trying to play Outcry but it's just machine puzzle after machine puzzle so far.

I don't think you are mad but you may possibly be addicted. Speaking of addicted, have you tried the hidden object games?

I guess you're a happy camper now.
Enjoy your loot.

Happiness doesn't occur until your unplayed pile is twice as tall as your played one.

Gameho, how do you compare a hidden object game with an adventure game?

RAL I have some games I haven't played yet as well. I keep playing some of my favorites over and over so the new ones are still waiting to be played!

I am also addicted, but I have to install and look at the graphics straight away. I need to see how beautiful the game is going to be. Lovely scenery and close-ups of objects does it for me. How sad am I?? rotfl

RAL, I thought I was the only one. Nice to hear that I'm not as sickly addicted as I thought. I never have any money cause I put it aside for games. I can't even keep up with getting them all played. I am behind by three newly acquired adventure games. I am presently playing two more and have four still preordered. Isn't life grand? For me--- a cup of coffee, a great adventure game, and Gamboomers . We may be addicted but isn't it great! yay broccoli
