Thanks very much to you both 😑
As a non-member this looks to me like a very inviting offer.
I will investigate 👍

It's back. And at the top of the page it says: Update! This Monster Bundle offer will be inactive from September 1st through September 4th, 2023. It's a little late for that message, but better late than never.

The Bundles changed! I'm sure I'll be purchasing from the "Tricks and Treats Bundle" section. I already own all of the games in the other two categories.

Hi, Marian! I skipped both of the last bundles but I did not skip the Halloween BOGO . Same here. We get the Good Housekeeping Seal of Approval for our restraint. Thanks for the laugh because your response to oldbroad just cracked me up ! I'm off to check out the new Monster Bundles and, hopefully, this time I'll find enough that I don't already have. Susan

Well Marian, after looking at some Big Fish reviews with some people having trouble with some of the Nancy Drew games, and looking on Her Interactive and seeing problems, and seeing that Gamehouse says The White Wolf of Icicle Creek doesn't play in Windows 10, and knowing I'll probably never get around to playing them all much less replaying them all, I still went for the deal! I keep thinking how I fought downloads before but now I fight with CD's and then I was looking on one of my shelves with Nancy Drew and other games on it that is in an awkward place for me to access and how lazy I am, and how this certainly isn't the first time I may be wasting money on games and will probably not be the last, so what the heck. I had actually been thinking of replaying the first game in my XP but I don't think the optical drive in it is working anymore. I have not turned it on for awhile though to confirm. The second game, Stay Tuned for Danger, is available at Allvideo so that's an option also if I do decide to start replaying the series. Big Fish allowed me to buy all the games in one order (not just 10 like in the BOGO sales) so I also went for the two Casual games (which I also have on disc) even though they did not get the price reduction to $3.00, but did have the 30% discount. Overall, even with the tax added, they were all under $3.50 each. What can I say?

It looks like the bundles changed again today. I am afraid to look! I have already spent more than double what I usually spend during one credit card statement period and there are still two weeks before it closes. I need !

Phew! Nothing I'm really interested in. What a relief. I'm kind of tempted by some of the Park Ranger games but am going to ignore them for the time being.

Big Fish does show Shadow Lake plays on Win 10. I don't know. I had meant to try it in my Win 7 as it is still installed there but I never did get around to it.
I had thought I read somewhere that some games that didn't work on Win 10 did work on Win 11 though. Again, I don't know.

I see it right on the home page. I also see it here.It is odd how sometimes things seem to show up for everyone and other times not. Occasionally I need to hit F5 to refresh the page, but that is all that is ever necessary. I also did not receive an email about this sale - at least not yet. And I never really pay much attention to the emails anyway. They never seem to tell me anything that I don't already know by the time they come in.

Very odd! I suppose I could try to order something and see if the discount shows up but I don't feel like messing around right now. I imagine it will show up at some point. Refreshing the page does not change it. I thought maybe I had to sign in, but, nope! I guess it's possible that they don't want my money! Finally shows up!

Hi, Marian! I'm playing "Detectives Unlimited" first and enjoying it very much. Right now I'm stuck on locating the last HO and don't want to use a Hint. Where are the optional Match 3 games when I need them ? I've purchased a few "Lost Lands" (and picked one up for free as a "Catch") games and they've all been quite long and challenging. I downloaded the demo of "Tricky Doors", so I think I'll pick that one up in the next sale ! Susan

Thanks Marian! Just on my way to check things out!
The only games of interest for me are the first 3 Dark Tales games which I only have on disc. They don't show Win 10 but I'll probably get them and see.
