I've already downloaded Gamehouse's free game today and I didn't catch this. Is there any way I can still get it for free?

Thanks, Michelle. I looked around some more, too, but couldn't find any other place(s).

Sue

Sorry Sue I looked for you and I couldn't find anywhere else you could play it for free.

"games such as Atlantis Quest, Around the World in 80 Days, Pirate Poppers,"

Hi everyone. Speaking of the above mentioned games, does anyone know where I can get Pirate Poppers, to play for free besides from mostfun.com? I used to be able to play it, but twice now with the times being widely spaced I have downloaded it to my laptop, but can't play it. It will load up and show the ad, but afterward show only a black screen. I have to pull up the Windows Task Manager and End Task on it to shut it down.

Sue

Hi Merri and Midori,
If you want a game to play try the one on offer from Gamehouse today.
Its called Escape the Museum, and its very good, you have to find objects
and also solve puzzles.
This should keep you busy for a while :)

Midori...
eek that flu sounds awful!
Anything that makes one not want to be on the computer is SERIOUS!
Hope that you feel better soon too!
:)

Sue, my sympathies about the cold!
It sure is the season..
:P
The homemade soup sound just the answer though!!
I had forgotten about the rooms in Haunted Hotel with the dim lighting...NOT a fan of that either...
(I wear glasses but have a bad habit of taking them off when in such situations....
:D

Midori, while I do feel bad, I am no where as sick as you. Mine is sore glands around my neck, ears hurt somewhat, sore throat, sneezing, tiredness...not quite enough for a nap, but enough to just lie around the house. I have been treating myself with homemade soup I happen to have already had made, so didn't have to go buy any, or make some while being sick. I do somewhat my usual computer routine, but have also spent some rest/relax time, watching TV and working on a sewing project.

Those games with dim lighting make it hard on these almost-56 year old eyes of mine...heh heh heh. Kit and Ellis really gave me a time with those flashlight-only levels...lol.

Sue

Hi, Sue... hope you feel better soon. I'm still getting over flu-like symptoms with a wicked sore throat. Actually didn't get on my computer for 2 1/2 days straight. Now THAT'S proof that you're REALLY sick. I'm propped up in here now with a heating pad and throat lozenges. Lol! 08-/

Haunted Hotel is a pretty good Hidden Object game... not the best, but intriguing enough to play. The wacky lighting in some of the scenes made things a struggle to find at times, but I did enjoy it. Have fun!

I just started playing Haunted Hotel; so far I like it. It has an interesting storyline that makes you want to keep playing to find out what happens next.

Sue - who is still nursing a head cold....blahhhh

Hallford..they are VERY appealing(the good ones, anyway..)
aren't they!
I will definitely replay Haunted Hotel for that reason!
Samm, that is great! Enjoy...Polly Pride is amongst the better H.O.G , IMHO!
:)

I finally got the game.. Gamehouse fixed it and put it my downloads with the unlock code.. I'm sooo happy!!

Hi Merri, I played the haunted hotel game as well and am now addicted
to these kind of games....lol

Suki, your husband sounds like mine when it comes to computers...lol. We've had computers in our home since the tail end of 1999, with full access to everyone, and he stills knows only a little more than zip about them. He HAS learned how to check his email (to keep in contact with some Navy buddies), check the bank account online, and play a game...from a CD, which he has either me install or our younger son.

The main times I go to bed early is if I've been up all night, and then (for whatever reason) all the next day. BTW, I am impressed your husband does the dishes! Mine thinks doing dishes is a no-no for husbands - but not for sons...lol.

Sue - who just barely got the Ghost game installed in time...heh heh heh

Me.....but I got it anyway! I had played it through from Shockwave, the sequel stinks in my opinion...we got it in evaluation at RA, speaking of which, they didn't have any this week...I didn't get anything in my in-box, didn't check the site either...

I do have bouts of early sleep, but that's usually after I make a pig of myself at dinner...I still love to cook, but I'm lucky my husband does the dishes!

He wouldn't dare mess with me and my games...otherwise his computer would all of a sudden be password protected! I'm the geek in the family...he doesn't have a clue about computers, but if he couldn't play online poker(free of course)he would have a hissy fit...so I don't get to much crap about playing, just buying...lmao!

Suki

Me too, Suki. Sometimes I am still up, and will see my son off to work at close to 7 am. Then, or sometime thereafter, I go to bed.

Midori, my husband spent years and years, off and on, doing the same as yours. He finally wised up and accepted that I am just simply a night owl, but with bouts of early-to-bed-ism. I'm supposing it's that, anyway, but after 30 years of marriage, you'd think...lol. We've been married almost 34 years now, and have pretty much come to accept those things about each other, and to pick our battles wisely...lol.

Speaking of Polly Pride Pet Detective, who besides me has completed that game? :D

Sue

To Suki: Oh My! Lol! All that over an innocent lil hat. *{}{}]:-o

Yes free is good!
Indeed...very much like old movies..lol!
:)

I liked Haunted Hotel and for free it was okay by me!

If I go back through all the games I have acquired, lol...must have been my mood at the time...They are like old movies that you haven't seen in awhile...they will keep me happy in my old age!

Suki

Hallford thanks for the info!!
I was late getting to it, as I had been playing that free one Bigfish had a few weeks ago; " Haunted Hotel",(which I really LIKED, in spite of the lukewarm reviews around the net)
Any one else play and like it?
Anyhoo, now downloading Polly pride...!
:)

midori

I couldn't resist.....I typed your ending acronym into the teen chat decoder, that has been on my machine since my son lived here and this is what it came up with, lmao...

- LSD; amphetamine
lmffao - Laughing my fat fu*king as off
! - I have a comment
$hi+ - Sh*t
%-) - User has been staring at a computer screen for hours

I like the last one!

Suki

I'm another! My hubby harps his best to get me back on HIS schedule, but now that my daughter's in college I've reverted back to my own internal clock. I'm a night thinker. Daytime is so... interruptive. So I like to dream then. &;-)

I go to bed when the Sun...the Dog and the Husband get up, lol.....I do my best gaming in the middle of the night!

Suki

Yep, Copmom, I know EXACTLY what you mean. Many a night has come and gone where I told myself I was going to go to bed 'early', but wound up staying up MUCH later, just playing games such as Atlantis Quest, Around the World in 80 Days, Pirate Poppers, and on and on...lol.

Sue

Sue, that's my problem. I got the game, and started playing right away. Of course time slips away on these!

Following Robert's instructions, I got the game, and have already played a few rounds/levels. I *was* going to go to bed early, but had read this thread and was downloading, etc. I then decided to give it a whirl; should have known better than to do that...heh heh heh. So much for going to bed early. Well, for *me* it's still going to bed early...hee hee hee.

Sue - the perpetual nightowl, who sometimes actually goes to bed while it is still night time...lol

*peeks out of the naughty corner*
Thankyou g@rgoyle thats what I forgot to change :)

Hi Midori,
Sure, but my ceilings are 12 feet high, so could you please dust the lamp when you're up there to rub it? <;-P

A g@rgoyle genie! Got any wishes left? *%;-)

Hi Hallford,

Your wish is our command... well, not really ;-)
Is the new title of this thread what you had in mind?

Regards
