Fragments of Truth: an MCF Story Collectors Edition

Tried the demo; bought it; played the main game and the bonus game. Although it doesn't seem to have the overall size and quality one expects from a Mystery Case Files game, I enjoyed it and look forward to the traditional release in about 3 months. I'm also in the middle of Detectives United: Vengeance from the Past.

Tally Ho, I am glad to hear that you enjoyed Fragments of Truth.

The MCF game in November has the title of Mystery Case Files: House That Love Built.

I am now playing Strange Cases: The Secrets of Grey Mist Lake. This and the same developer's games were all removed from the BF website years ago, so you won't find it there. I am finding it to be a very nice game.

Thanks Mad! I know that I recently saw a post about getting some game to full screen but, like you, I worry that something else will be affected (and I don't remember what/where I saw what I saw). We'll see. I may look into it more.

Tally Ho, thanks for the information regarding the MCF Story. When I saw that game I had been wondering if the end of the MCF series had come and they were transitioning to the more HOG type games that seem to be coming out. Same thought I had about that Grim Chronicles game.

Marian, thanks for saving me the time of looking up Strange Cases, which I don't have.

Never mind. My mind is going!

Grim Chronicles: Superior Sorcery is a full-on HOPA with no indications that it is heading towards a HOG.

It is true that a lot of releases are HOGs now (or HOPs), but I know of 13 HOPA betas right now and that is not including Do Games which is still going strong. So it seems that it will be a while yet before we have to worry about their demise (if that ever comes to pass). It is a far cry from the days when we had about 8 HOPAs a month, though. On the bright side, the slower pace has allowed me to play more of my backlog.

I just finished Strange Cases: The Secrets of Grey Mist Lake. Quite a good game. I'm glad I finally played it.

Oh, that puzzle was sooo easy once I paid attention. First of all the instructions mention something about 3 moves. Who believes that? I just started clicking around yesterday. Today I actually took a look at the puzzle and yes, 3 moves was all it took! blush

Oh, and I had to find a skink. I thought it was a misspelled word. It wasn't.

I left the bonus game of my Mystery Case Files for another time - and have now started Royal Legends Marshes Curse CE, which I am enjoying rather more 👍

I think I've played all the Dana Knightstone games. Some more than once. Yet I don't remember much about them - except that I liked them 😃

Enjoy !!

I have also played all of the Dana Knightstone games (only once) but don't remember much about them. I recently re-purchased the first game - Death at Fairing Point - because I only had it on disc. I did install it with the thought of replaying the series at some point.
