Re: What are you playing now?

You can turn off the sound but at times the "Inspector Brown" character will pop up to announce a hint or to tell everybody to put one of their cards out in the open and you will need to hear when that happens. You can't always skip things and in some cases you can "see" the hint but not always, and...

Re: What are you playing now?

Yes, that one. When I first got it it was in the reduced section. I was highly amused by the appalling spelling errors on the back of the box. The instructions aren't well-written - with three university-educated people we couldn't make the first game of 10 work. We then played the second. And then ...

Re: What are the things that make Sierra games memorable?

Funny. Players in a symphony orchestra have similar quiet ways of communicating: sliding feet across the floor or wiggle fingers to communicate applause. Cute! It seems like every memorable game has a hiccup point that a lot of players stumble on and review as negative. 7th Guest with the microscope...

Re: The Star Wars Like/Dislike.
