This looks to be a really good game from the developers (Alawar Stargaze) of Twisted Lands: Shadow Town and the Snarkbusters games, among others. I'm reading that it is more of an adventure game (IHOG/HOPA) with some HOG scenes as well.

Having said that, there are six pages of posts in the technical support forum from people who have purchased the game and are still unable to play the game past the trial time in the demo; I would suggest that anyone reading this wait until this problem has been fixed before purchasing the game, just to be on the safe side. I'm sure Big Fish will have this problem corrected soon. wave12

Thank you for the heads-up, Marian. Anxious to buy this one. Alawar makes great games and this one looks like CE quality at standard version price. Wonder if uninstalling demo and starting from scratch would avoid the technical problem. Will wait for follow-up from BFG.

Sparkle, it almost sounds to me like BF inadvertently put up the trial demo as the download file for purchase rather than the full game download (at least on some servers), but this is pure speculation on my part. We just need to wait a bit and see. Thus far, folks aren't reporting any technical problems with the game otherwise. wave12

The game sounds really interesting and I think a lot of us are going to enjoy it. happydance12

ahhhhh!! I should have checked here before I bought this game.

I got so interested in the story that I couldn't wait to purchase it. It's a fantastic game. Hope BF fixes it soon so I can continue playing. eek12

A mod just posted this:

Quote:
Thanks in part to the response in the forums, we've discovered that the file we published for this game is actually a demo/sample version, rather than the full version, and so this is why you're getting a "Congratulations! You've completed the demo..." message, even though you've actually purchased this game.

We apologize for this mistake, and are working very hard to get this fixed ASAP.


Hang in there, everyone! reindeer

The fix has been released:

Quote:
We have a new version of Mountain Crime: Requital available now!

This update includes the full version of this game, rather than the demo/sample version that was initially published.

We apologize greatly for the trouble. You can get the newest version by uninstalling and reinstalling your game


No worries, Gail: the file size for the full game is a lot larger than that of the trial!! grin12

That sounds like a different problem altogether, Richard. Have you tried running the game from the desktop icon rather than through the Game Manager? Sometimes that helps with access violation messages. wave12

Sorry, Richard. I hope you can get the game running. I've had one game from BF where the same thing happened to me, but the problem was intermittent; sometimes the access violation message occurred and sometimes it didn't. I did finally manage to get through the entire game, but it took a lot of patience. woozy12 wave12

I see a few other folks mentioning this problem now, Richard. Be sure to let BF know. reindeer

Mine is up and running, and I'm liking it. I like those puzzles with the circle thingies that need filling in.

I noticed on the side bar at the bottom where it says "menu/pause", I always think it says 'menapause' - sorry guys, I guess it's a girl thing

But I'm stuck at the suitcase where I have to put the images in sequence - can't get the phases of the moon .... duh?

I see that there are some other folks getting the same message like you said. I let BF know Marian. Sure is funny that the demo played fine I didn't finish the demo though.

Hi, Janice.

I found this on the Big Fish forums; assuming this is correct, big spoiler ahead:

Click to reveal..
Full moon for the third spot, right facing half moon for the second spot, left facing half moon for the fourth spot

I hope they get the problem sorted, Richard. Glad you contacted BF. thumbsUp12

Good idea to check it out on another computer, Richard. If I were you, I would let BF know this information as well; I do hope they fix this problem. I see quite a few people reporting it now. wave12

Marian,I just downloaded the demo from Alawar and it plays just fine. I have 60 min to play and I have all the inventory items from BF demo. Wonder why BF game won't play. At least I can play another hour.

Sometimes I think the Game Manager, with some games on some computers, may use system resources in such a way that it can cause an access violation message. Fortunately this doesn't seem to happen very often.

I'll be interested to hear if BF comes up with a fix for the access violation message with this game. wave12
