   Sorry, my mistake with respect to Saturdays game; I've just noticed the developer for Saturdays game, which is live in about 90 minutes. It's another one of those playjowee publishing offerings, which so far have been rather damp affairs. It's another port of a mobile phone based game, which from a distance looks okay, but in reality is rather shallow.

   You're entitled -- no apologies necessary. :)

   No game on Saturday.

   Sunday's game is one we've not had before; though it is the second in a series, the first of which we have had some time ago. :)

   Sorry, forgot to update until this morning. We are getting a never given away before game from Playrix tomorrow (Sunday). Sadly no game today (Saturday).

    Made an account just so I could post and say that you even make crappy games sound intriguing:

    UK English: "It's another one of those playjowee publishing offerings, which so far have been rather damp affairs."

    American English: "It sucks."

    "rather damp affairs" - I feel like I'm watching "Remains of the Day." :) So cool!

    Max, really enjoyed your translation. I think "rather damp affair" sounds so much cooler than "it sucks". I'm still laughing about it.

    Sorry guys, was completely wrong again. Before I posted about Sundays game, I took a really bad fall that has left me in agony (I'm always in pain, which is why I have to take morphine), but the fall has left me in a lot more pain that I'm used to, so I wasn't in any fit state to check previous giveaways. I'd forgotten that Sundays game had been given away previously.

    That review wasn't written by me. If I use someone elses reviewe I always post a reference to the original. I've not been getting access to what the weekends games are going to be until really late over the past several months. I usually spend a good 4 or 5 hours playing then writing up a review if I do all of the work myself. Sometimes I just don't have the time, especially since we moved last year, so I resort to referencing other reviews. I still think it's important to have at least some sort of review posted so that those with paid for bandwidth, or very slow connections can make a more informed decision as to whether or not to download the game. I realize that it's just as easy for individuals to go Google the game, but too be honest, I still enjoy doing what I've been doing this past several years. :)

    Thanks alianthia. Thankfully no broken bones. )All that milk and lots of dairy produce I drink has been of use, lol). I'll be fine in three or four days. It's always a lot worse on the day after, tomorrow I should start to feel a little better. :)

    It looks like we are only getting one game this weekend again.

    Good news is that it's a game never given away before and it's not a HOG, TM or Match Three game. Yeah!!!!

    Thanks for the heads-up, WR. If it's not one of those 3, maybe it's an arcade game: guess we'll see...hahaha.

    Ros - who does enjoy her HOGs and Match 3's, but realizes some don't...;)

    I've just purchased a match three via the daily indie game site. Cost me just over $1. and I've been rediscovering the delights of Bejewelled 3 (which is free via EA games Origin client). I don't mind HOG's so long as they are quality HOG's with a decent story and good hidden object puzzle and with some decent mini games. I've got well over a hundred HOG's in my collection, so must like them, lol. I just wish developers would return to making more breakouts.

    Sundays game is a well respected genre that most people will have played at one time or other. We've not had one of these for a while, so it will hopefully be well received. Can't say any more without giving away the genre.

    IT'S DEFINITELY just the one game this weekend.

    re: Oct.12/14 game - alas, it was only a typo instead of an unprecedented two week run. ;)

    Again only one game this weekend.

    Although a repeat, Sundays game giveaway is one of the better games to have been given away previously. In fact, if I was to list my favorite games from the giveaway project over the last 8 years (just under 8 years), Sunday's game would be in my top 5 games ever given away. :)

    At the moment it looks like we are getting games on both weekend days this week, tohugh one hasn't been confirmed yet. Ones never been given away beofre, the other, well, lets say it's a regular. :)

    update on yesterday post. We are definitely getting two games this weeknd. Saturdays game is the repeat and Sundays have never been given away before.

    I beta tested the game, but won't tell you anything else about it. :) only 31.30 hours to wait to find out. :)

    I probably won't be posting a review on Sunday. Got an awful lot to do thoughout the day, but will still be moderating.

    Actually the game will be posted on Saturday and it's not a repeat but a sequel to the original. One of the better in this particular genre, so, make sure you check it out.
