I never had any glitches with the main game or the bonus game, fortunately.

I finished MCF: Crossfade. Today I started a replay of Penny Dreadfuls Sweeney Todd which I believe I was going to replay back in 2023 but never got around to it.

I also finished Jewel Match: Dracula. There is at least one level that you can dead end yourself on if you make an action on one board before doing something on another board. I had to restart that level. Actually, I lost all of my lives about 3 times while playing the game but it allows you to continue anyway, which I did.

I think I will try StarL2, a match game that I recently bought on Steam. Big Fish has 5, 6, 7, and 8 so I went looking on Steam and found only #2.

I replayed Sweeney Todd in the last few years.

Congrats on finishing Jewel Match: Dracula.

I am presently playing Gaslamp Cases #5.

Never fear, I'm playing that too. Holy Smokes it's LONG. It's not unusual for a game to require gathering ingredients in order to make a potion, but hey - I think I'm on my fourth potion by now. And lots of puzzles. These games always contain old favorites, re-designed to keep them interesting, but you can count on 5BN to come up with some originals too.

Yes, I had heard that Lost Lands X is a very long game.

I finished Sweeney Todd and started Lost Lands: Mistakes of the Past.

The StarL2 game is a little different but I have restarted a few levels because I seemed to have run out of moves. The game doesn't let you know unless I was just not seeing something. I'm still a bit uncertain about the bombs, what they are clearing. The bombs are colored and you match them with like colors. Then there is something that goes either across a row or down a column and you do need to make that happen at times for cells outside the regular grid. There are plants and crates and what not to clear. I just figured out that I have a hammer that clears one cell.

Congrats on finishing Sweeney Todd.

I finished Gaslamp Cases #5 and am now playing #6. I will break away from the match-3 games after I finish this one and get back to a HOPA.

I did pick up Lost Lands X during the 60% off sale. I was surprised that it wasn't excluding the game from the sale being as it is such a new release.

I haven't played anything in the StarL series.

Finished StarL2 and finished Lost Lands: Mistakes of the Past.

I started Abandoned: Chestnut Lodge Asylum and will probably start Spellarium 2 also.

Playing Lost Lands: The Golden Curse

I have played The Golden Curse and it's very good. Ob, I have Chestnut Lodge Asylum but it hasn't been played yet. Spellarium 2 I have played and finished.

I am presently playing a TM, Barbarous 2: Tavern Wars.

I played The Golden Curse but don't remember a thing about it.

I played about 20 levels of Spellarium 2 and still don't know how to do stuff even though I have played the first game in the past. I have also tried to look at the "help" section but there is just too much to take in. I can't remember any of it when I start playing. When I encounter something I don't know how to get around, I look at the help and still don't know how to do it. I'm getting irritated with the game when it freezes the screen to highlight what to focus on because I know what/where to focus, just not how to do it.

I like Chestnut Lodge Asylum so far. Played about an hour.

I will have to play Chestnut Lodge Asylum.

I am playing Gaslamp Cases #8. I keep telling myself that I am going to take a break from this series, but this kind of game just suits my mood right now, I guess.

I just finished Abandoned: Chestnut Lodge Asylum. It stayed pretty good to the end. I did skip one slider puzzle. I missed 3 morphing objects. The game started out pretty easy but all of a sudden I had a bunch of inventory and no place to use it, and things I needed that I didn't have. Slowly but surely I figured it all out though. You sometimes don't know (or at least I didn't) that you needed to do something somewhere.

I picked up the first two of those Gaslamp Cases games during the last BOGO so I can try them out. They have a few in the January Bundles that I might pick up also.

And now I've finished Spellarium2.

Will have to see what I feel like starting tomorrow.

That sounds good about Chestnut Lodge Asylum. I am glad to hear that you liked it.

And congrats on finishing Spellarium 2. I have all but two of the games in this series but have only played some of them so far.

I have all of the Spellarium games. I picked up #s 3-11 for $3 each in various bundles. I've bought a lot of Match 3, Mosaics, and Paint games in the bundles.

Those are great deals, for sure!

I also have most of the Cursed House and Laruaville games (same developer as Spellarium); I am missing about four of those in total.

I have 15 Cursed House games, mostly all from the Bundles. (The first one was in a Steam Bundle with the first games of Laruaville and Spellarium.)

I only have 5 of the Laruaville games, 4 of them from the BF Bundles. I'm waiting to see if I can get some more of them that way.

I finished Gaslamp Cases #8 and have started Secrets of Salem: Shadow of the Witch CE.

I have been playing Let's Travel: Welcome to Greece (Match 3) which is giving me a fair challenge so far. An hour ago I started True Fear: Forsaken Souls - Part 1. I was going to play a Domini game which is probably what I should have done as this is another "asylum" game. Nothing wrong with it but should have played something lighter in between.

Yes, I know what you mean. Asylum settings: a little goes a long way...

I finished Secrets of Salem: Shadow of the Witch CE and today I started Enchanted Stories: Mystic Woods.

I haven't played any games in the Let's Travel series yet.

True Fear Part 1 is something that I intend to replay before playing parts 2 and 3. It has been too long since I played the first part and I need a refresher.

Well, I just finished True Fear: Forsaken Souls and while the game is okay, I don't know what all the big fuss was about. Maybe that is only because I am having trouble following the story. Most of the game was easy enough but not too easy. I did like that. I ended up having to skip one puzzle in the bonus chapter because the clue just was not helpful at all. I think there is supposed to be a guide but I can't find it. I have the Enhanced Edition from Steam which says it has a strategy guide. It has all the other bonus content. Anyway, then I went to look at Big Fish and can't even find the game there at all. I know they had it. Did they remove it from their site or is it just their messed up search engine or ME? I don't really want to play the other parts immediately but I am thinking I should do it while it is fresh in my mind since I am already having trouble following the story. I'll have to think on it.

I finished Let's Travel: Welcome to Greece a couple of days ago but am still playing it anyway for now.

It looks to me like the game has been removed from the BF website. Fortunately I have all three games from GOG. Bought the regular version on BF and then the enhanced first game, second and third from GOG.

While I have only played part one so far, I did have some trouble following the story too. I have always assumed that it is supposed to be something where it gradually unfolds such that we eventually understand fully what is going on, but someone who has played all three games would have to comment upon that.
