What Price A Soul? (Pretty Pricey It Turns Out.)

A word to the wise – just avoid spooky abandoned farmhouses altogether.

But ESPECIALLY avoid them on Halloween. No good can come from exploring them. None. Just forget it. If, however, you decide to forge ahead and explore that creepy, undoubtedly haunted place, and you stumble across some kind of ancient looking artifact, here’s a pro tip – Leave. It. Alone. Just walk away. Forget you saw it. Exit scene left and, I dunno, go soap someone’s windows or TP their house. Something productive. Something decidedly other than meddle with weird, old artifacts.

These would be lessons too late in the coming for the folks in today’s release Shadows: Price for Our Sins. Against what should be any rational person’s better judgment, young, naive Dylan and her equally naive student friends do precisely all the aforementioned things one should never do in any freaky, spectrally-infused abode. I mean, haven’t these kids ever seen a horror movie? Jeez.

Anyway. Needless to say, happiness and joy does not henceforth abound once they find the abandoned, exceedingly spooky Stone Farm and then decide to mess with said artifact, thereby unwittingly (of course) opening a portal to some kind of hell dimension, releasing the prize possession of Lord of Darkness, and generally-not-very-swell-chap, Samhain; the souls of the Stone family themselves. Buffy and the Scooby Gang Dylan and co. are not. Samhain takes none-too-kindly to losing these souls and as recompense claims the souls of the meddling kids. Dylan, proving a bit more wily than her friends, manages to escape the demon’s grasp. Now it’s up to you and Dylan to gain the trust of the most assuredly post-hell-dimension-stress-disorder inflicted Stone family’s spirits and save Dylan’s pals before it’s too late and their souls are lost forever. Or at least until another group of puerile teens stumble across the accursed Stone farmhouse!

To Sleep, Perchance To…Wake?

 

Few things in life are capable of bringing about pure, unbridled terror quite like a nightmare. As everyone well knows, save for those lucky few capable of lucid dreaming, while one is in the midst of a dream, it feels as real as anything that happens while we’re awake. Thus even though it makes no earthly sense that  your high school algebra teacher should be in front of you, wielding an ax, blood dripping from his mouth, (a mouth which you could swear you don’t remember having quite so many fangs) would hand you a test  for which you are completely unprepared, while it occurs to you that you forgot to wear anything but your underwear,  in the dream, you don’t give it a second thought, it’s perfectly logical that things should turn out this way. But then suddenly the scene melts into a new one, and you’re standing in front of a school assembly, clad only in your skivvies, having to give a speech on a subject with which you’re completely unfamiliar. Ultimately though, we’re all saved by the only thing capable of defeating a bad dream – consciousness.

Now imagine being trapped in a perpetual nightmare from which you cannot awake…

This is precisely the…well, nightmare, facing Laura, the heroine of today’s release Dreamscapes: The Sandman Collector’s Edition. Laura was once virtually immune to the world of nightmare thanks to the Dreamcatcher given to her by her father. Upon his shocking death, however, the Dreamcatcher mysteriously disappeared and Laura was lost to a nightmare with no end. Now it’s up to you to journey through this haunting, terrifying world of bad dreams. You, with the help of one Professor Sander’s miraculous machine that grants you access to Laura’s dreams, must guide this unfortunate girl through her night terrors, calming her frayed nerves as much as you can, and collect the pieces of the Dreamcatcher. Once it’s completed, you will have returned poor Laura to the waking world and saved her from a cycle of neverending horror!

Mysteriez Abound

Are you a fan of hidden object games, but sometimes yearn for something a bit different? Well then today’s online release Mysteriez! may be just what you’re looking for.

Mysteriez! is definitely a unique hidden object game. For one thing, you’re not exactly searching for objects per se, instead you’re looking for numbers. And they could be anywhere; on a clock, scrawled on a paper, carved into a table, even hidden in the intricate patterns of curtains! But that’s not the only challenge. You’re also working against the clock. As it relentlessly counts down the minutes, you have to make absolutely certain to only click numbers or items with numbers on them that you have not already clicked. If you repeat a click, you will automatically be docked 10 seconds. It’s a lot more challenging than it sounds!

But it’s also a lot of fun and VERY addictive! I highly recommend Mysteriez! to fans of hidden object games, puzzle games or just colorful, addicting games in general. The only criticism I had was the duplicate ad that a player is required to watch at the beginning of the game. They’re brief, and, like I said, only occur at the beginning of the game, but I was anxious for some hidden object-meets-numerological fun and didn’t want to wait! Still it’s a small price to pay, and considering the game is FREE, is not much of a bother at all in the grand scheme of things.

So log on and play Mysteriez! today!

Another Brick In The Wall

There are many ways for a day to get off to a less than stellar start, but little else can ruin your day faster than an invasion of Mongol hordes from the north, right? That has to rank pretty high on anyone’s list of Bad Ways To Start The Day.

That’s why, in today’s release Building the Great Wall of China Collector’s Edition, it’s essential for our hero, the clever and cunning Kong Baotu, to build the Great Wall as fast as he possibly can. The only thing he requests in exchange for his utter commitment to this monumental task is for the hand of the Emperor’s daughter, Fan Tanrui, in marriage. With 40 levels of game play,  4 unique locations, danger and peril in the form of fire breathing dragons and harsh natural elements, Building The Great Wall of China Collector’s Edition is an adventure through Ancient China that you won’t soon forget!

A Stranger On A Strange Planet

Imagine finding yourself on bizarre alien world. Now imagine that you have no way of getting home. Would your first instinct be panic or curiosity?

If you’re anything like Dr. Ellie Wright, the protagonist of today’s release Botanica: Into the Unknown Collector’s Edition, it will likely be a mixture of both. Finding herself marooned on the strange, beautiful and dangerous world of Botanica, Ellie’s natural scientific curiosity is piqued. But she’s also acutely aware that she needs to plot an escape from this exotic, lush and menacing planet all while evading the machinations of the clever and fearsome Queen Kassandra! It’s up to you to help Ellie navigate through the dense forests, strange, steampunk villages and bizarre creatures found on Botanica and help her get back home in one piece!

Oh La La! Spring in Paris is here…


Paris is the city of dreams…love, romance, art, blue skies, little bistros and flowers.

Because it’s still winter and showing I loved last Sunday’s release: Big City Adventure: Paris!

With Big City Adventure: Paris I traveled to Paris and felt like I was savoring my cup of coffee while sitting outdoors, in a bistro, with the noisy Parisian streets in the background.

At least, that’s how I dream of Paris…Let Big City Adventure: Paris take you on a wonderful Parisian Tour.

Revenge Is A Dish Best Served With Tentacles

If there are any guiding principles by which I staunchly adhere during my day-to-day activities, I’d have to say that somewhere near the top of that list is “do not anger psychotic, multi-tentacled mad scientists prone to nightmarish human experimentation.” This rule has largely worked for me as I’ve managed to retain most of my limbs and have yet to sprout any new ones or any vestigial tails, wings, brains, etc. I take great pains not to run afoul of anyone either employed by a sanitarium or who strikes me as a potential Herbert West: Reanimator-redux. I also think that as a rule, it’s best to avoid anyone with tentacles. But that’s just me (no offense meant to any of our tentacled readers).

The hero of today’s release, Haunted Halls: Revenge of Doctor Blackmore Collector’s Edition, clearly has no such guidelines for their life, having managed to pique the ire of one sinister, tentacled Dr. Blackmore some time ago. Playing as this unfortunate soul, you must use all your facilities to escape the evil Blackmore’s laboratory and  evade the horrific experiments he has planned to exact his revenge on you.  Haunted Halls: Revenge of Doctor Blackmore Collector’s Edition is a hidden object adventure like no other and is definitely one that will shock and delight you.
