Thank you so much for helping with that "The" issue, Marian. It never occurred to me that BF would use "The" when composing an alphabetical listing, but I keep this in mind now every time I search their site.
What I am writing about today is a game title from a series in which I bought FIVE games. Four of the five games show up together in my Purchase History, at the correct location in the alphabetical sorting. It seems odd that the fifth one does not.
I tried a search based on purchase year (2018) rather than title, and read through the entire tally to see if it somehow would appear. I bought 50 games that year, but no luck finding it via that approach. (I have replayed many games I purchased that were as old as 2014.)
It looks like a random thing. I guess I'll send Support a query. Royal Detective is SUCH a great series of games! Thanks for responding.
(Tally Ho, I tried the Ctrl-F thing and got Zero. )

Yes, I get the "The" thing, but I am not looking for the missing game under "The" Lord of Statues because the full title of the game is "Royal Detective: The Lord of Statues." So, I'm looking in the "R" section of my Purchases list, which is where the other four games in that series are located. So there is that.
I know when I purchased the game (in June of 2018) because of my credit card statements. So I queried BF about the loss of the game and they looked into it, but don't know what happened to it. Today, they sent me a coupon so I can buy it again without paying for it a second time. That series is one of my favorites, so you can imagine how happy I am right now. I really appreciate that level of Customer Service and it is one reason I've continued to buy from them for over ten years.
Now, I'm off to reinstall and replay it. Yay!
