I thoroughly recommend "The Unseen Fears : Outlive" and "Vermillion Watch : Fleshbound". Very satisfying experiences - which I enjoyed immensely - in both cases  And I am adding "Camelot : Wrath of the Green Knight". [I played the CE.] A super game which I will undoubtedly play again at some time

The "Echoes" series varies in quality, but I agree they are good, overall. My two favorites are Citadels of Time and Revenge of the Witch. They both are "bog world" games, satisfyingly long, puzzle-heavy, engrossing, with no "action" or timed scenes. I have replayed both and know I will again.

I found "Dark Mysteries : The Soul Keeper" [CE] to be a really enjoyable experience. Quite a long game and with a good storyline  There were quite a lot of hidden object scenes but the graphics were good throughout and the hidden objects themselves not brain punishingly difficult to find  I recommend this game

I am playing a game right now that has turned out to be quite the sleeper. The title is The Emerald Maiden: Symphony of Dreams. I am playing the Collector's Edition and am finding it thoroughly enjoyable. It has an interesting story, just the right amount of hidden object scenes for a HOPA (and they don't give you eyestrain), easy to middling puzzles that are fun and not frustrating, and overall it's just very well done. I haven't played the bonus yet so can't comment on that, but even if the bonus game stunk I already feel like it was a very good purchase for the price. The developer is Gogii Games - I always liked games with their name on them and am so glad that I finally got around to playing this. Great game. It makes me wonder how many more game gems are in my Purchase History just waiting to be discovered. :yes:
Edit: I have now finished the entire game including the bonus and this one is definitely among my favorites now. Overall, a really fun game! Hooray !! I have that one - not yet played - so a treat to come  Thank you for reminding me about it and very glad you enjoyed it

I recently played two games, both of which I enjoyed very much, but then forgot to come here and recommend them !!  They were : Queen's Tales : Sins of the Past [CE] - and - Queen's Tales : The Beast and the Nightingale [CE] Two really nice games

Hi! I'm Tim. I used to run the casual games thread on Adventure Gamers. I was asked at one point to name my Top 20 games. It's too bad that I don't have access to that message anymore. (People are working on recreating the AG Forums, so there is hope.) I was able to put together a list of 18 games, of which only 10 I'm sure were on the original list. Also bear in mind that these games are older games since my interest in the quality of casual games being produced started to wane about seven years ago, if not longer than that.
So I thought I would ask if I would be stepping on anyone's toes if I were to post the list here, on what seems like the logical place to do so. FWIW, I will not be offended if I'm told that it would be a bad idea.
For whom the games toll.
They toll for thee.
