Lighting the candles in the inner square but not the outer square and moving them around on a conveyor built sounds familiar; I think this puzzle was in a Daily Magic game I played. I do remember hitting the skip button. wink

That "meeting place" to swap inventory items - I remember thinking that game mechanic sounded a bit tedious. But maybe I won't mind it when I try to play the game.

I have encountered the lighting candles puzzle a couple of times but I don't remember in what games. I think one might have been an adventure ? Anyway, I don't know if I ever was able to do it.

I think the Daily Magic game might have been Dark Dimensions: Somber Song. It might also stick in my mind because a couple of screens after that I had to stop playing the game altogether - the game appeared to have an issue with my video card/drivers at that time. Restarting the game did not help. Someone else told me they had the same problem in the same place.

Maybe I will try it again this year because it's been years since that happened and now I would be playing on a different computer.

I've never played that game so that's not where I saw it.

Oh, unfortunately, my not being able to cope with “time devouring traipsing” is due to health issues, Marian.
I have a damaged disc in my spine and the older I am getting the worse it is becoming - such that sitting in one position for any prolonged length of time is just no longer possible.

Thankfully, my mental capacities are still faring well !! laugh

I would just like to rant, even though this is not the place - it's about the latest BFG app. A while ago, an improved version 'remembered' your last setting for 'Sort by:' such as Most Recently Played or Game Title. That was a big improvement over the previous updates, where it always started with Game Title. Now they have made a recent update, where I suspect they unwittingly picked up some code from a previous version; resulting in starting with "Game Title" no matter where you left off. It is a real nuisance when you want to pick up in a game you exited yesterday.

I don't like what these settings default to either, Tally Ho.

In my Game Manager for example, in the Purchase History, it always defaults to Order Date and every single time I find myself changing it to Game Title. It is not that big of a deal but I do find it kind of annoying.

I have Marian's problem with the default but I'm not sure I understand what you are doing, Tally Ho. Do you open the game manager to play the game? Don't you use a desktop icon?
