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.

Uncle Reg

I just finished Jack Keane 2. I'm not sorry I played the game but it could have been a whole lot better. For one thing they changed from point and click to click and drag for movement, which got frustrating in some areas. Also, the game was not always responsive to clicking. And then there were the puzzles, which were not all that much fun.

I think I will play Call of the Elder Gods next.

I just finished Creepy Tale: Snow Child a couple of days ago. I really liked it. It's definitely not point and click which is fine with me. A controller is recommended, but I played strictly with the keyboard with no problems, The puzzle clues are sometimes very oblique, so you will need your puzzling skills!
