Hi there insomnimaniacs,
I just wanted to share this. I got Secret of Monkey Island for a freebie yesterday and thought i would try it out with my daughter (9yrs) this morning, turns out she loves the humour and we have had a great time solving the puzzles of the three trials. Her favourite part was the sword fighting, of all things and we had to play pirate insult sword fighting for real afterwards.
Her face when we got to the sword master and all the insults were different, priceless. Moments like this are why i love games, especially as Monkey Island 1 was such a formative game for me as well.

Did get Dookickers as well. No AoW3 though.
See, I'm not that unlucky, but the thing with semi-successful randomness is it always seems unfair I guess!
Edit, I missed Battle World Kronos as well.

The second one was originally a DLC for the first, but they improved the engine and re-released it as a stand alone. Definitely better over all. The first one is a little flat.
It's stand alone, with a few cameos and references to the original DMS campaign. Over all, you're not missing much.

Most of the games I have seen throughout this I already own and if I had the ability to get a free one to gift, I would have been clicking on all of them!

Shadows looks beautiful yet boring.
Seems like that's a trend in games of late.
