Little Shop Road Trip Little Shop Road Trip – It’s time to hit the road in search of the perfect items you can sell in your little shop back home. Travel from Seattle all the way to Miami’s South Beach, making stops all along the way to famous destinations like Mount Rushmore, Niagara Falls, the Grand Canyon, Yellowstone Park  and more. Visit cities like Las Vegas, New Orleans, Washington DC, Boston and San Francisco – to see what precious collection you will amass.

Download it – Or play more road trip games: United States of Pool, Hot Dish 2 Cross Country Cook Off
Aloha TripeaksAloha Tripeaks – The next installment of the Aloha game series (Remember the card matching Mahjong game, Aloha Solitaire?) is Aloha Tripeaks, where players take a balloon ride over the Hawaiian Islands and play 70 levels of solitaire card games. The game is based on the classic “Pyramid Golf” solitaire game, where gamers build on the tableau’s stock pile with cards that are one value higher or lower to the face up  card, either ascending or descending. To win the level, eliminate all cards on the tableau, moving them to the stock pile. The cool difference here is when you’re stuck and there are no more moves, your handy bonuses can save you! The game also features interesting trivia about the Hawaiian Islands. Download it
Sparkle Sparkle – Sparkle is one my favorite and most addictive Luxor-like games where you exert your aiming skills to free the Crowberry Woods from the shadow of Darkness. Use your Orb Slinger to shoot colorful spheres into groups of three or more of the same color, which clears the chain of orbs from the board – and in doing so, reclaim every corner of the verdant forest. Pick up amazing amulets and sparkling power-ups hidden along the shaded path. Download it
Thomas and the Magical WordsThomas and the Magical Words – Combining Scrabble with arcade gaming and a little Harry Potter thrown in, Thomas and the Magical Words will keep word gamers, kids and adults alike, entertained for hours. Tommy has been thrown in a book of spells by his uncle and it’s up to you to help him escape his imprisonment by creating a word path to exit the book. Download it
Treasure Seekers The Enchanted CanvasesTreasure Seekers The Enchanted Canvases – Treasure Seekers The Enchanted Canvases takes you to a Romanian castle where Nelly’s brother, Tom, was last seen trying to find the Philosopher’s Stone, a relic with mystical powers. She soon realizes the only way to find him is to step inside each painting hanging on the wall and interact with the characters on these magical canvases, who will then reveal clues that will bring her closer to finding Tom. Solve adventure quests with hidden object challenges to break the castle’s spell, find Tom and discover the secrets of the Philosopher’s Stone. Download it

Annie’s Millions

Annie's Millions for macHave you wondered what you’d buy if you had a million dollars? Or is that just me? Anyway, with this new Mac game, Annie’s Millions, live vicariously through Annie, as she spends a million dollars in order to inherit her uncle’s fortune. You see, her eccentric uncle has decided to pass on his riches while he’s still alive but he’s not sure who to give this inheritance to. I don’t know why he can’t just split it up and give it to everyone – but I suppose that would be less interesting so he decided to instigate a friendly family competition among Annie and her cousins.  To fuel the fire in this money race, time is of the essence. Whoever spends a million dollars first, and spends it wisely, will win uncle’s jackpot. In each hidden objects scene, you’ll need to find and purchase everything on the list to move on to a new buying spree scene. Spend away until you reach a total of one million dollars! Note: if you need to use a hint, you have to earn it by playing mini-games.
