Much as I would like to, I won't be getting this game, anyway, KatieB, unless it becomes available from a different source, as I refuse to deal with Steam. But considering technical know-how in this day and age, I feel not providing a manual save facility for an Adventure game, to be quite ridiculous

It’s a case of “each to our own”, KatieB. Steam treated a group of us very badly and none of us have dealt with them since. But I would hardly say I consider them to be evil. Good Gracious !! They are “just another company” and don’t merit any importance in my life. But I’m happy for you that you enjoy being a client

While I prefer a manual save system, I have played games where the autosaving did not bother me one bit. Voodoo Detective springs to mind. So, I take this auto/manual save business on a case-by-case basis. Oh, I've caved in too - occassionally - Marian. But never without a lot of fuss !!!!

I loved the two Simon games that I played years ago. The games were filled with humor and very challenging puzzles.
It's nice to be important but it is much more important to be nice.
