Yes. Sorry !! I should have said it wasn't a glitch that affected lots of people. Thanks for clarifying that, Marian 🙂

OldBroad, I'm replaying an Amaranthine game, too. The Tree of Life. Great mini-games, unusual concepts, tricky, head-scratchers. I've played 8 in that series, and think Winter Neverending is the best, but this one is darned good, too.

Having eventually finished Baba Is You and Stephen's Sausage Roll I was casting around for another simple (at first) puzzle game and stumbled across A Monster's Expedition: you have to fell trees by kicking them over to make bridges and rafts to travel between islands, and on some of the islands you (as a monster) find (now extinct) human exhibits with groan-inducing captions - available on Steam and in Apple Arcade (where I am currently playing it during a one month free trial). I was also amused to google Amaranthine on the basis of the comments in posts above and find that it is also the name of a side scrolling space shooter which I will probably try if I can find an Apple compatible version (looks a bit like R-Type).

Life is what happens while you're making other plans.

I'm absolutely positive you will like it, Marian. It is everything an Adventure game should be Just be prepared for a lengthy intro Although I should add that it might not be suitable for those folk who suffer from motion sickness - but I don't think you do, Marian ??

I am replaying Secrets of the Dark: Eclipse Mountain and enjoying it every bit as much as the first time. This series is among my favorites because of the high quality of the graphics and the difficulty and originality of the puzzles and mini-games. I'm going to reload SOTD: Flower of Shadow as soon as I finish this game, and SOTD: Ancestral Estate as soon as I finish that one.

Reenie, are you talking about the Secrets of the Dark games? If so, there are indeed four of them, and they are all listed on this page.I have found that the listings are not always consistent, but I can usually find what I am looking for anyway.

Installed Fatal Evidence : The Missing today and played the first bit. Looks good [I also have another in the series - called Cursed island (I think) - but can't remember if I've played it ]
