adventuregamers says it is horrible, but no I haven't actually played it.

It's a terrible game that looks nice. Skip it. You should have picked up Ceville when it was a daily deal a couple weeks back, though. Surprisingly fun little game.
That's too bad for a game based on an Arkady and Boris Strugatsky novel.
For those of you who don't recognize them, they wrote Roadside Picnic, which you probably know as S.T.A.L.K.E.R..
The Last Express will be out on iOS later this year. This is one of the few times I'm really kicking myself for going Android.
Squeeeeee. Only yesterday I was talking to a friend about game design and iOS and ended up talking about Last Express in length. I'm still playing it in small chunks on my PC.
So I noticed they just added Myst V on Steam. Would it be an entertaining puzzle game for someone like me to play out, or is it better suited for people who played all the previous games in the series and I'll find the story stuff confusing?
Because Fedoras are cool.

I don't remember playing much of it (I got stuck somewhere in IV and never finished it) but if memory serves it would be better going into it if you know some of the backstory, even if that just means looking up a FAQ...
OUCH! stubbed my toe on another kickstarter...these things are sprouting up everywhere these days!
So...
Jane Jensen's trying to start up a new adventure game studio.
The accompanying video is amusing.
Can anyone comment on The Lost Crown? I stumbled across it while reading about another game, and it sounds pretty good.
It's avail. for $8.99 with the soundtrack at http://www.thelostcrown.co.uk/
I really want to play Yesterday, but not until it gets a price drop.
I liked it. It's by Jonathan Boakes, the same guy who did the Darkfall games.
There's supposed to be a sequel coming out "real soon now" called The Last Crown.

I don't know anything about the game, but that title choice..."Last" anything is already problematic in the Final Fantasy sense of "what if you want to do another one?" but "The Lost Crown 2: The Last Crown" just sounds silly.
It's going to be The Last Crown: Haunting of Hallowed Isle
There goes all hope for Lost Crown II: The Lostening
What the hell, I`ll plug Resonance, coming out in May. Dave Gilbert is publishing it, xiigames developing. We got rockpapershotgunned recently. I was contracted to do all the backgrounds art so.. yah, shameless plug.

It's good. Very different from his other games (which are all myst style, this one's more traditional 3rd person). It's almost entirely in black and white with the odd splash of colour which gives it a very unique look.

That does look pretty good - nice job on the backgrounds

FYI, works under DOSBOX on Android (GoG.com version).
There's a 999 topic around here somewhere. I remember posting in it when it was a daily deal on Amazon.

I've only tried a few games on my Kindle Fire - it's a pain to launch games (through the console) without a physical keyboard, but if the game itself is mouse driven they seem to work OK. It probably won't be as nice as something optimized for a touch screen, but it works once you get used to it. There is also a SCUMMVM port to android which I tried with DotT and Monkey Island, both of which worked pretty well. This was also on my Fire.

Did they finally release the SCUMMVM post to Google Play?

I got it from the official SCUMMVM page, so I'm not sure.

Cool! Looking forward to that one.

I'd like to try to get this running on my wife's Kindle Fire, but I'm a noob with it. Are there easy instructions on exactly what to do? My google fu is weak today.
