Mystery Stories: Berlin Nights

Mystery Stories: Berlin Nights for macIt’s remarkable to think that only 20 years ago, there was a wall separating West Germany from East Germany. Anyone trying to cross over it to see the other side, would be shot by the East German stazi, one of the most effective and repressive intelligence and secret police agencies in the world. Don’t worry, we are no longer the enemies. The Berlin Wall was dismantled in 1989, and East Germans have been partying since. So, where does this lead? I thought I’d feature Mystery Stories: Berlin Nights in commemoration of the 20th anniversary of the Berlin Wall’s welcomed destruction. Wander back in time throughout Germany’s capital city, Berlin, in this hidden object game also filled with various puzzles. Discover the city while solving the mystery of a missing machine that could solve the global energy crisis!

If you were wondering, your ultimate mission is to help Steve the Sheriff recover stolen treasure taken from his beloved Neptuneville.

ElimiNationElimiNation – I’ll be upfront about this. ElimiNation is definitely not an easy casual game; it’s for expert war strategy gamers. ElimiNation is a classic, turn-based war game for the most meticulous and die-hard strategists. That being said, if you’ve never played a game like this before, it doesn’t mean it’s not for you. It means this game is for a very specific type of gamer, so you might be one of them. Pick a faction to play three of five campaign maps controlling Dark Brigade, Green Wings and Tech Empire. Each faction has its own unique units and characteristics. Maps include special events (reinforcements, resources, bonuses) and have their own special victory conditions, some by turn number, others, for example, by conquering a region. Play a Quick Battle (15 maps) to get a feel of the game before moving on to Campaign. Key pointers: Resources as well as strategy play important roles in ElimiNation. Carefully choose who to attack by analyzing their defenses and units. Purchase new units or powerful cards during deployment phase to give you additional strategic advantages.
