• MY GOD, are these games bad.
• MY GOD, are these games bad.
• I love escape games! Thank you Miss C!
• Hey, Christophine, Jester really, really thinks they're bad. I must agree--wicked, wicked bad, BOOOOOOOOO! And thanks for posting a walkthrough for the idiots easily frustrated.
• Okay, I'm enjoying the zombie one. But I've got time to spare today.
• Jester - Did you mean "bad" = "bad", or "bad" = "good"? If it's the former, dumping on a post is frowned on. BlueHorse, I'm equally confused by your comment.
• I think GramMa's on our side, path. I've been having a craving for escape-the-room type games as well, so this is right up my alley (^_^) Walkthrough was useful too, got stuck at one point. More escape the room games here and here and here (some games already posted here before in Mofi):
• Yeah, sorry for the double post up front. I guess it was just the force with which I was pounding the enter button after losing so much of my life on that Nightmare Escape rubbish. What I do not apologise for, however, is "dumping" on a post. Frown all you like, path. Games that cannot be solved without a walkthrough are patently stupid. Unless, of course, they are produced specifically to frustrate and annoy, in which case, feel free to change my comment to, "Wow, these games are GREAT!" Happy now?
• Jester "What I do not apologise for, however, is "dumping" on a post." Hmm. I'm not interested in fighting over your opinion about the post. If you don't like this type of games, fine. If you're angry because you couldn't solve them, that's personal to you. Others may like them. But,consider this:someone spent some time finding and posting this stuff. It's kind of like giving a present to those who read this site. If I gave you a box of candy for no special reason, except that I wanted to surprise you, would you feel free to tell me that you hate nuts and caramels when I picked them out because I thought they'd make you happy? Or, would you say nothing and pass the candy on to someone else who would appreciate them, or even toss them out? Or, would you say "that candy is so bad because it sticks to my teeth, and you must have given it because you knew it would annoy me, even though you don't have access to my dental records."? That's pretty much what you did. There's a kind of a polite convention on these sites to the point that if you don't like something that doesn't call for discussion, you check out the next post and see if you have anything valuable to add. If you don't, you just keep looking.
• Hmmmmmm, have we gone from point-and-click to pissing contest in 9 easy posts? First, Jester posted something twice, and I wasn't sure if he meant to, but I read it as him being in the spirit of groaning at a really, really bad Halloween joke that you laugh at, but wasn't really that funny, and maybe are peeved that you don't get at first, but then you do and are bugged that you laughed once out of embarrassment and once because it was sort of funny, but not really and then the joke teller snorts because you didn't get it, so you decide it wasn't as funny as you thought it was going to be, and he could have meant to do it deliberately, but probably not, and it's *fun* to tease people that do that accidentally. Then Path said something in a school-mistressey tone of voice and shook her finger and then rolled her eyes at me. I was just trying to be, like, all goofing with Jester for posting twice, and giving Christophine a little tease for the cheesy Halloween games she posted to liven the place up, and I said, "Booooooo" because I was being all silly and using it to mean a mild razzing, but also teasingly referencing Halloween again, and I figured Madam C. knew the games were silly, and that's why she posted them in a spirit of fun, not as an example of The Perfect Flash Game, which is what all the gamers are seeking, but would probably be better off not looking for in here. Even though I thought that Jester and I had posted innocuous posts, apparently there was actual evil in the thread, if not in the games, and the postings began to level up, then swords were drawn, lines were crossed, and now we're in Game Two: Escape the Nightmare Evil Chocolate-Walkthrough Zombie-hater Post Games that cannot be solved without a walkthrough are patently stupid. Yes, that's absolutely true. I can't get hardly any of those games posted on lazylaces or jayisgames without a walkthrough, and they're stupid! Dumb and stupid. Posted on those sites by poo-poo heads. Dumb, stupid poo-poo head games! And I hate walkthroughs. I always have to use them and I think it was nice to have one in this post, 'cause I'm all for cheating instead of getting bugged and quitting, but then I'm not a serious gameplayer, but some people are, and they get all, like, serious about critiquing the games and everything. Which is not MY thing, but hey, whatever? Now get out of my way so I can google on a walkthrough to figure out where the key is in this escape-the-petulant-poster game. Thanks for posting more silly links, Alnedra-sweetie, and for attempting to pour oil on the waters. Now we have a cheese-y, oil-y post with whine and we need wisecracker-y goodness to go with it.
• In situations like this, as in most other situations, I like to stop whatever it is I'm doing and make myself a nice cocktail.
• May I suggest a tasty Zombie Cocktail for everyone: This cocktail does have the potential to turn you into a zombie. The 1939 World's Fair was it's debut and it is still perfect to enjoy as a happy hour relaxer or a haunting Halloween party cocktail. INGREDIENTS: * 1 1/4 oz lemon juice * 1 oz dark rum * 3/4 oz orange juice * 1/2 oz cherry brandy * 1/2 oz light rum * 1/2 oz high-proof dark rum * 2 dashes grenadine PREPARATION: 1. Pour the ingredients into a cocktail shaker with ice. 2. Shake well. 3. Strain into a highball glass with crushed ice Yum!!
• I get through most of these games without a walkthrough.
• Maybe so, but you're never going to see your little cat again.
• RALPH! Spit out that cat!! You don't know where he's been.
