BFG - The week in (p)review

Since I gave a sneak peek last week...
Here are some great titles releasing this week.

Sherlock Holmes: The Awakened - Great large file adventure game later this week.
Emerald City Confidential - Good solid HO Adventure, not technically this week, launches next Monday the 23rd. The 23rd is a date fixed by the developer, otherwise we would give it to you this week!

There are a few other titles this week I have not played, so if I like them I will add them to this thread.

Wow thanks BFG- Guy
- both games I have wanted. Is the Sherlock Holmes the Awakened the version with the 2 choices of game control- 1st or 3rd person?

'The Awakened' has been deeply rethought to offer a totally new third person view while keeping its original first person view.

Excellent- I will definitley be getting both games

Yippppeeee!!

Thank you so much for the sneak preview!

I have played The Awakened--a great game!

As for Emerald City Confidential, I will be buying this from BFG as soon as it is on your website!

edit:

(I just came up for air--I'm now on level 253 of Unwell Mel!!)

Sorry--didn't mean to stack my posts!

Thanks BFGuy,it will be another great week for casual games

I'm so excited about these two offerings, both on my purchase list anyway. Bless you BFG-Guy, don't know how you do it but you're amazingly wonderful! Deep joy!

Thanks BFG. You're the best.

Thanks BFG_Guy... I really love the "headsup" because it helps me budget my entertainment funds.

I'm hoping you'll soon get Escape Rosecliff Island. Super game.

Thanks, BFG

That Annabel HOG is <Beautiful> :StPats:

Thanks for the info. i'm hoping to see escape Rosecliff Island soon

Those are both great games, but to give the release the proper exposure, I'm going to move this thread to the Adventure Game Forum as both of those games are classified as Adventures here.

Twice the exposure is always better, right?

Great adventures coming up at Big Fish Games! Wonderful news!

Wow! Great to hear.

I am so happy to hear that Emerald City will be available at BFG . After reading the news concerning privacey at Playfirst I decided not to download from them and now that I see there is another option I will be first in line at BFG to purchase my copy.

Woo hoo, thanks BFG Guy !

Thanks BFG-Guy!
Looking forward to Emerald City. Already have Sherlock on the stack to play, but I have been waiting to try Emerald City.

Marian, What are your thoughts about "Unwell Mell?" How does it compare with some of the other recent releases? I have been debating about buying this game.

gaily, you can discuss that here.

Ana

Any thoughts when Casebook II will be available, or should I just get it from the developers.

Sherlock Holmes the Awakened is now up on Big Fish for those waiting. YAY!

Thanks BellaRosa!

Adorable -- I don't know when Casebook II will be on BigFish. I don't even have a tiny bit of evidence upon which to base a guess.

Since I already bought the origional Sherlock Holmes awakening and couldn't play it because of motion sickness, I want to make sure that the one BFG is offering now is the new Sherlock Holmes Awakening remastered. Can anyone tell me if this is the newest one? It doesn't say remastered so this is confusing me.

I read what BFG Guy said, but still I am confused. Doesn't take much these day to confuse me.

Sherryah, I posted it Here. It is the remastered one.

Hi Sherryah

I can confirm you play in the third person.

The opening scene had movement as it zoomed around the town to Baker street so perhpas after loading the game, just let the opening scene run - go away and then come back and you should be good to go.

Thank you so much Ana and BellaRose now I can order the game!

Emarald City now out at Big Fish for club members

It's a very cute game- fairly easy so far but it a bit of light fun.
It is only 79mb and a demo available.
