    Teagan, if I remember right, you like the Midnight Mysteries by Mumbo Jumbo. There is a new one out today:


    Midnight Mysteries: Haunted Houdini
    Link is to TouchArcade forum for the game.

    I'm not familiar with Buddy Media, sorry.

    A new freebie from Terralumina Games is out - Emerald Den Escape. Been a long time since they released a new one but I do enjoy them. One of the better room escape games

    Okay, I used to be a big fan of promo dispenser, but I don't like the way they've got it set up now. I guess I'll just add Road Wars HD to my list of games to buy!

    Never heard of Promo Dispenser. But have downloaded three from your list. I have just received an email from BFG about a new game on iPad but for the life of me I can't remember what it was called

    Promo Dispenser was set up as a place where you could get codes for games one at a time in exchange for writing a review in iTunes. You had to write the review or you couldn't get another code, which was great for developers and even good for those willing to put forth a bit of effort for free games. I don't like the fact that after their relaunch they integrated themselves with Facebook. It also appears that there is a particular piece of software you have to review before getting other things. Maybe I misunderstood, but the Facebook thing alone is enough to turn me off.

    I sure did. As always, you rock :)

    Wasn't the Laura Jones game already released by Nevosoft? I could swear I had it a couple of years ago.

    Also, the developer of Riddenhurst is creating a new game. Details are in the TA forum link below. I'm not sure on this one, because I had a @&$! of a time navigating in Riddenhurst.

    The Haunt

    Still having problems with Riddenhurst. My sense of direction sucks. The new one looks promising though

    The screen shots for The Haunt sure do look purtty. I hear what you're saying about Riddenhurst, though. Iffy game play seems to be a common complaint for that game. Now I'll admit that I didn't give it a try after the last update the developer mentioned, so maybe things did improve a bit, but I just haven't had the desire to go back.

    As for Laura Jones, there was The Gates Of Good And Evil in 2010. I believe Tesla is a new one, though, at least for iOS devices.

    A map showing where you are would be a huge improvement for Riddenhurst

    Played two Laura Jones games in the past so the "new" one with Tesla is just a re-release with a different icon. Seems to be happening a lot lately
     
  15. The Haunt looks/sounds great (from their description). I also deleted Riddenhurst and never looked back, but sounds like they did away with the awkward navigation on this one.

    I am playing Mystery Lighthouse at the moment and it is rather good. When I first got it I thought it would be over in about 30 minutes. I think this was due to the cartoony graphics. But you know what, it is a really good point and click game. The only negative is moving from screen to screen is painfully slow but the puzzles are great and the music is very relaxing

    Did you actually click the link I posted? This is the game you are talking about: http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/diamon-jones-devil-contract/id505097667?mt=8. Obviously someone borrowed the name in hopes of brand recognition or something. Trust me that I'd never purposely post garbage like that :)

    Overall this is great to hear. I did end up buying the game but haven't had a chance to play it yet. Sounds like I might not have wasted my money after all!
