I checked out the screen shots for Galaxy Quest on the BFG web site, and it honestly looks kind of boring. Have you actually tried it by chance?

Thanks for the links. It is the Apple approved vs developer released to the store for this market issue again. Appshopper shows it released as of June 13.

As for impressions, I have to take the opposite stance of my Canadian neighbor. I enjoyed the demo enough to buy the release. It has good but not great graphics, is a "find the pieces" and place the object type of game (I'll never remember all those acronyms that Miss Pistachio insisted upon), and seems a fun Alawar release. It is definitely not top-tier, but enjoyable. I am very excited to see the Grim Tales that mrsleny has been speaking about.

Actually, isn't this a BFG?

A new one has just popped up - Dream Chronicles The Eternal Maze. Has anyone played the original Dream Chronicles? Will have to check if I have it in my backlog

BFG (I always think of Doom when I see that) published the game, and Alawar & Arello Mobile developed it. I always try to insert Alawar as needed into posts in this thread, as there are some people who pledged to never play another game developed by them (when the Alawar/Big Fish Games switching started).

If I really despised Anuman's Aladdin game, and thought that XIII was OK, but nothing great, would I like the Deadly Association? I hesitate because of how poorly done the Aladdin game was.

Thanks in advance!
