Well, maybe I'll have to try them out again one day Uncle Reg. Thanks for posting about it. I must have done something wrong with the patches.

I finished Hope Springs Eternal today. I enjoyed it very much the second (or third) time around. So much so, in fact, that I am now starting Shades of Black. I am not ready to leave Carol's world.

I just finished Carol Reed #8 Amber's Blood. That's the last of my disc versions and all of them worked perfectly on Win 10 with the patches installed.

When I started this Carol Reed marathon, I discovered that I had never bought #16 Quarantine Diary, so I think I'm going to play that one now and then maybe continue the sequential marathon afterward.

What a nice surprise, Uncle Reg - to find an unplayed Carol Reed game. Enjoy!

I am still playing Shades of Black.

I managed to finish Cats and the Other Lives. Overall, I guess I liked it but it could get boring in places, and frustrating. I used a video walkthrough often to make sure I was aiming for the right goal but the walkthrough can't make your hands solve the mini games.

I guess I will need to focus on finishing up Jack Keane 2 next. I'm not really enjoying it that much and it being on my Win 7 computer it's not readily at my fingertips to play. I don't have that computer on all day like I do this one and it's in my bedroom where it has been too hot lately to sit and play.

Good to hear you finished Cats and the Other Lives. I finished Shades of Black today and have started Time Stand Still, which I played once many years ago so it's almost like a new game.

After finishing the recently purchased #16 Quarantine Diary, I returned to my sequential marathon, and played #9 Cold Case Summer. Now I've just started #10 Bosch's Damnation.
