Yes, very old style HOG game
PostedNovember 6, 2018
I've only done about 1/2 of the demo so far - this one looks like it came out of the archives from about 15 yrs ago. very simplistic, nothing exciting, just straight finding objects listed. Meh! might be worth using a PCC on just for something to fill in the gap until the next HOPA CE game on Thursday. Besides, I have to use up my pcc's before they all expire ! Good for a time when you really just want a non-thinking type of game to play to pass some time.
I recommend this game!

on the fence with this one

tried it for about 1/2 hour. I am on the fence with this one. Don't like it well enough to pay full CE member price & don't have another CE game to take advantage of the BOGO sale. will have to wait on this.
It's an okay game, but I have to admit I am getting tired of gimmicks, gadgets, etc. In particular, at one point I was with the "assistant" and couldn't get out of that to get back to the start to collect the "hand prints" I had missed.
will have to think on this one. Definitely won't pay full Member CE price for it.
Not a lot of really good HOPA games lately. BFG is still my fave site for getting games, but there's so many different genres of games out there now - I'm just not into the mosaic/ card/match 3/adventure/TM, etc. My own preference. So I will carry on playing some of my older HOPA games.
Thanks, BFG - you do still provide the best selection of games out there for everyone.
I don't recommend this game.

so, I am on the fence with this game. I've played about 1/2 hr of the demo. It is OK, but nothing to write home about. If the game doesn't "grab" me in the first 10 minutes, I won't buy at full price. will wait (perhaps) until there is a good sale for BFG members at a good price, then maybe will consider purchasing it - if only to have a new game to play.
It is disappointing that there's only 2 days a week where HOPA CE games are offered - Thursday & Saturday. I realize there are many different genres of games out there, but at least, would be nice if a better sale can be offered to BFG members on Thursday's releases.
On the whole - not a bad game, but not one that I would pay full price for. Will just have to re-play older games (yet again).
I don't recommend this game.

Really liking this game. Actually, been playing since yesterday - still on the main game. Graphics & sound are awesome.
Not an overly difficult game = pretty straight forward - but my kind of game to play. I love HOPA games (sigh) - wish there could be a new HOPA every day ! - but be that as it may, this is one that will keep me entertained several times as it is one I will replay a few times.
Had to laugh a few times because of the sound track - I would "jump" thinking that it might be somebody coming into my house (one of the boys) thinking they would catch me having fun playing a game. LOL Even though I have not completed the game yet, I am really enjoying it.
Thank you BFG & Developer for bringing this delightful Halloween game to us.
I recommend this game!

It was an okay game

I finally got through this game. Graphics were great, etc. but just something about it was not really appealing to me. Took me a while to get through this game & then got to the part withthe chess set & to play a mini game - had a glitch and the game quit. Thankfully, I was able to uninstall & re-install and the error message disappeared and I was able to carry on to the end of the game.
Some parts of the game I quite enjoyed, some I was not keen on. I do have all of the Vermillion Watch games, but this was not a favorite of mine. Yes, it has appealed to many people, just not a favorite of mine.
I recommend this game!

Redemption Cemetary: Day of the Almost Dead CE - boring

I was looking forward to a great CE game today - alas, I found this somewhat boring - too puzzle heavy for my liking. I have the other Redemption Cemetery games (which I enjoyed), not so with this one. Definitely, NOT enough extras to warrant being a CE game (even though the sale this weekend was fairly good.
I played about 30 minutes of the demo - just was not interested enough to carry on. Sorry, Developers !! this just does not "cut the mustard" as a CE game.
More and more I am finding that the game developers are putting less & less extra's into their games. Just not making their CE games worthy of being rated CE.
C'mon Developers - get with the program here - us gamers would like to see some NEW series coming out - not a #12 or #15 of a series that's been out there for years. The extras have been getting less and less over time - you guys need to "kick it up a notch" !! Just my opinion. Sorry. I just found this game very disappointing.
I don't recommend this game.

So enjoying this game. the ONLY thing missing (my opinion) - NO morphing objects !! I love looking for morphing items, whether they are in the main screens or HO scenes.
Everything about this game, however, has been great so far. Only part way through. I was too busy enjoying the awesome weather here to sit in the house glued to my computer !!

Not a bad game - enjoying it
PostedJuly 19, 2018
I am enjoying this game - taking my time with it.
Should mention (if allowed) to 1 commenter - yes there is an SG (top left side) - shows as a "pencil".
I quite like the Grim Tales series and I have replayed a lot of my older games.
Thanks, BFG - for continuing to provide us with new games every day.

I actually don't mind the game - graphics and sound are quite good, it has a jump map (which I always find quite helpful). Major disappointment, though, it calls for collectible ravens and chess pieces - however, these did not download with the game. oh well, I will still enjoy the game anyway.
I recommend this game!

Fear for Sale: Tiny Terrors CE
PostedJuly 15, 2018
I have completed the game. I really enjoyed the game - music, graphics, etc. were crystal clear. I also really enjoyed all the collectibles - however - It was a disappointment that one cannot go back into Extras and get any of the collectibles one may have missed. I missed 2 of the eyes & 2 of the morphing objects - could not get them - would have to play the game all over again. Also - there were no replayable HOP scenes or puzzles - not that I could see.
That is why I only rated this a 3.
I recommend this game!
