Marian Moderator Graduate Boomer Registered: 07/04/00 Posts: 17064 Loc: near Yosemite in California	You can download Off the Record: Linden Shades Collector's Edition here. Quote: A mysterious figure in red… Something’s driven everyone away from Linden Shades. No one’s been back since that time of terror when the kids drew startling images of blood-red ghosts, and the police were no help. Your editor’s sure there’s a story hidden in the Shades. Can you get the truth, off the record? This is a special Collector's Edition release full of exclusive extras you won’t find in the standard version. As a bonus, Collector's Edition purchases count toward three stamps on your Monthly Game Club Punch Card! The Collector’s Edition includes: The bonus game to uncover more secrets Soundtracks, wallpapers, screensavers, and concept art The integrated Strategy Guide As always, please remember to come back and tell us what you think. Happy gaming!

Have only played a little of the demo and already get the idea that there will be a lot of HO scenes. Graphics in HO scenes and locations are a bit primitive in comparison to other recent CE offerings. None of these observations means that the game as a whole won't be worthwhile if gameplay and story are compelling. Anxious to hear what others think.

Marian Moderator Graduate Boomer Registered: 07/04/00 Posts: 17064 Loc: near Yosemite in California	I haven't tried this yet, but the developer is Eipix, who also brought us Final Cut: Death on the Silver Screen and Amaranthine Voyage: The Tree of Life.

Marian Moderator Graduate Boomer Registered: 07/04/00 Posts: 17064 Loc: near Yosemite in California	I am reading that there are a lot of hidden object scenes in this game, which of course can be good or bad depending on your preference. Let us know what you think. I'm going to download the demo now.

smitty145 Settled Boomer Registered: 07/17/09 Posts: 633 Loc: NYC, USA	Thank you, Marian! Downloading the trial. Since there are a lot of HO Scenes I may put this one off for a while. I'll see. _________________________ "Hello! My name is Smitty145 and I'm an IHOGs Addict" Gotta' be crazy, to keep from going insane

Sparkle Addicted Boomer Registered: 01/29/09 Posts: 1108 Loc: Canal Fulton, OH	Now I'm thinking I may put this one on the back burner until standard version is released.

Marian Moderator Graduate Boomer Registered: 07/04/00 Posts: 17064 Loc: near Yosemite in California	Hard to go wrong when you can get the CE this weekend for only two dollars more than the price of an SE.

menahune Settled Boomer Registered: 03/30/08 Posts: 505 Loc: Vancouver Island BC Canada	another brilliant game from Eipix ... almost better than the game itself are the extras, particularly the 'making of' that shows us the staff at their workplace and as models for game characters... definitely worth buying the CE. The sale is still on today; and as Marian said, 'only $2 more than an SE they have another game in progress, so I'll be watching for that one for sure. Janice Edited by menahune (06/09/13 03:17 PM)

Susie07 Addicted Boomer Registered: 10/25/03 Posts: 3582 Loc: Toronto, Ontario, Canada	Hi, Janice! Thanks for the glowing review! I picked this one up along with "House of 1000 Doors: Serpent Flame" in the sale. Now I have to limit myself to SEs for the rest of the month because I need to use up my punch card coupons. Susan
