    They are really banging them out at the moment. I'm trying to resist and get the backlog cleared

    I figured as much :)

    This one looks interesting. I'm eager to hear what you have to say about it.

    So has anyone tried Valentin - The Valiant Viking yet? If you liked Cardboard Castle you'll definitely want to get this game. So far it has been lots of fun. I did run into a problem with level 5, but the developers where quick to give me a workaround (it's not a bug, though :) ) It's really not a traditional point and click adventure style game, but if you like thoughtful puzzles and a silly atmosphere this game is for you.

    Loving Valentin. On scene 8 now but stuck. It has been really enjoyable and I wish there were more games like this. I like the trial and error part

    So you didn't have any problems with level 5, huh? Every time I tapped the Start button I got caught immediately. I haven't even seen the game screen yet :)

    I tried the iPhone version quite a while ago. It is kind of an odd duck. What info can I provide?

    Eh, just wondering if it was worth checking out or not. What type of game play is it?

    That happened a couple of times but I just clicked elsewhere and it seems to work. I thought I was doing something wrong on the game!

    Nope. Turns out that's the "non-bug" in the game :) Actually, I guess it can happen other places as well. Has something to do with two different things acting on the same click. Anyway, it's good to know that their workaround actually works, because tapping somewhere besides "start" is what they told me to do.

    It did happen on a couple of the other scenes but it worked eventually. Got 4 games on the go on the iPad at the moment and I'm now beginning to regret getting one. Again, not enough time

    I thought it looked cool, but it was actually harder to find the puzzles than beat them. I deleted it after playing for 15 minutes and only locating one puzzle. I'd imagine if you were a fan of Myst you might like it (another game I did not care for).

    Think The Sims-lite without the house-building. Not my kind of thing, but seemed well done.

    Thats what got me in this mess in the first place. I cannot resist Big Fish Games. I've tried to keep a list of a) ones I have b) ones I've played and c) ones I need to buy but they release them so quick I can't keep up

    That could actually be interesting. Might have to give it a shot.

    I already gave up on this temptation. Now I just need them to come up with a multi-buy button :)

    Yeah, I keep a couple of different lists. Eventually it gets to be kind of tiring, though. I'd rather play the games than document them :rolleyes:

    Feel the pure power of shopping-induced frenzy. The entire App Store could be yours!:D
