At long last...I have used my punch card credit. I was beginning to panic... and then along came this (in the nick of time). Short, but a very good game. I particularly enjoyed the mini game where you have to put the right item on the shelf according to the the limited instructions. Logic puzzles ROCK! The background music was nice, graphics were clear and the HOGs not too easy to find. Thumbs up!

Oh, I should have thought of that! -waiting two days, but got excited and got it this morning!

Now I am stuck trying to shut all the doors on the dovecote!

I even used the hint, and it just said to shut all the doors. When I shut one the dove flies back out!
Great game though! Love the graphics and the twists! :spring:

Finally got it. I did not realize I was supposed to use the little levers!
lol

Hi, Ana!

I'm gonna check this one out because I have one more game to buy in order to fill my April BFG punch card. From the comments, it looks as though I've found "Lucky #6".

I don't know if it's just me, raylinstephens, but after the dearth of good games in April, you might want to change your signature. How about "So many free games, so little to spend them on!" Only joking! We are usually trying NOT to buy everything that's released (Well I am.)

I think this has turned out to be a pretty good game. I had my doubts at first but have changed my mind........its quite nice once I got the knack of mixing potions.

I loved this game! When I was a kid, I got a chemistry set one year for Christmas! I was always trying to "create" new potions! rotfl

The graphics are crisp and clear - easy for me to see into the game play, and I can hardly wait for the follow up games!! rah

Happy Spring! :spring:

This is a great game-I'm in love with the graphics, the music,the puzzles...everything. Much like with Briar Rose I never want this one to end. I have become addicted to these games and I'm so glad that I discovered them through this forum.

Thanks so much you guys,
Tracy

This WAS fantastic. I just finished it and already I'm wishing it were still going on. SIGH I hope they make more "Deadtime Stories" soon because if they are anything like this first one, they're going to be awesome!

Is this game an IHOG or a HOG?
I don't want to just endlessly search for hidden objects.
Value Gameboomers opinions before buying any game.
thanks

Sadly the game will not play on my computer. I guess it's time to buy a new one!

meryl..

This is an IHOG....I really love the game..

You make potions, and do many things.

Very creepy also....I love the carriage guys voice.

Sorry ,Penny..It won't play.

Enjoyed this game very much..hope they have another very soon similar but that might run a bit better. I figured since my machine older xp might run a bit slow(if at all) but was surprised that it did run. what i did was to quit the game every so often and then restart..seemed to help quite a bit. I noticed Jane Jensen's name in the credits...another reason it was so good!! I am going to try in on my laptop Vista sometime and see it it does ok on it. I did notice at the Forums (BF)that quite a few people had problems with getting this game to run..
