Thanks, Ana. I thought the first Brink of Consciousness game, Dorian Gray Syndrome, was one of the best games I played last year, so I'm really looking forward to seeing what the developers have done this time around.

I picked this one up this morning. So far it's very good. If BF keeps this up, I won't have any money left to get the new MCF!!

Yes, let's hope that the games released between now and the new MCF will be dull and uninteresting!!

Oh, my gosh! I loved the first one (was just replaying it - do you supose they could see that? Oooo, twilight zone moment! LOL!), but I agree with thracia; I've been saving two credits for MCF! I will have to try this one; I supose I could wait...

well, at least, I'll fill another punch card - but sometimes good non-CE games are few and far between

Anyone finished this game yet? Is the CE worth buying?

I finished the game a few days ago. The bonus game is of a good length and the story ties the first Brink of Consciousness game into this one in an interesting way. The CE also has a video interview with the developers, which I enjoyed watching.

I'm really enjoying this game. Has a Sherlock Holmes feel about it. Nice music and graphics, well-done dialogue, and a good story.

The developers, MagicIndie, have become one of my favorites. Glad you're enjoying the game, Sparkle.

I think my favorite part of this game is the interview with the developers in the Bonus Content. I was left with a lot of questions after I finished the game and was grateful for the background information. Interesting to hear how much character development was involved. I'd like to see more of this in future games.

Glad you liked the video interview; I found that really added to the game.

I simply love these developers! The first Brink of Consciousness is still my favorite, but I too join the chorus for more in this series. Didn't they have the interviews on the first one? ...I seem to remember. Not recommended for those who do not enjoy dialog, though.

The Brink of Consciousness CE did indeed also have an interview with the developers.

I played The Lonely Hearts Murder CE right after playing Dorian Gray and although I did enjoy the latest game, IMO it was not a patch on Dorian Gray.

Re: Brink of Consciousness: The Lonely Hearts Murders Collector's Edition - New IHOG on BigFish - 12/07/12 07:54 PM

I agree, Boobie. I thought the first one was better but I did enjoy the new one as well.

I really enjoyed BOC: Dorian Gray and decided to buy this one last night due to remarks above and liking the trial.
Getting the BF Keychain with this buy is an added bonus.

Marian, I'll be sure to look at the Interview at the end. I enjoy those too.

By the way, I really miss that BFG Toolbar.

Did they get rid of the toolbar smitty?

I did read on Big Fish that they are discontinuing the toolbar.

Re: Brink of Consciousness: The Lonely Hearts Murders Collector's Edition - New IHOG on BigFish - 12/10/12 05:52 PM

Really? I wonder why?

Re: Brink of Consciousness: The Lonely Hearts Murders Collector's Edition - New IHOG on BigFish - 12/10/12 06:09 PM

Yes, it's no longer available. Mine was on both browsers, Fire Fox and IE. Unfortunately, I wasn't aware that it was discontinued and FF updated last week and now the toolbar is gone. It's still on my IE which I never use. Comments have been posted on BFG FB page. This is one feature change they made that I don't like. I was in the habit of checking the BFG Toolbar first everyday. It had everything right there in one spot.
