Oh Joy and Happiness! One of my two very favorite game designers has released a new game! This is the final episode in the Avadon series!
I thought I would have trouble playing this unless I moved the computer back to my living room, but I put a pillow on my office chair and it seems to be greatly helping my hip problem (getting better). Normally I can't sit this long, but the pillow seems to have solved the problem!
OK! I have started Avadon 3! I may have been one of the first people to buy it from the Spiderweb site. I checked the site just after midnight (Pacific time) and it wasn't there. I checked it in the morning and it still wasn't there, so I downloaded the demo, and then the link to buy the game appeared! Hooray! So I junked the demo and installed the full game. I mean, there's no doubt I'm going to buy this game! I need to buy from the Spiderweb site because Steam doesn't allow different screen resolutions, and when you buy directly from Spiderweb, you can choose the size you want. Old eyes need large text! (Something Jeff will begin to appreciate in years to come—if not already!)
I'm playing a Tinkermage again this time, as I did in Avadon 2, although this time I'm a female tinkermage, "Emerald" (after my precious Emerald, the mascot of this blog). I like that character because you basically get extra fighters in the form of your turrets. I don't think I could have completed the earlier game on "hard" if I hadn't been playing a Tinkermage. Also, it's a new kind of character! Fun!

So I have completed the initial explorations of the first area. I have a quest to dispatch wolves outside the camp, but so far I haven't figured out how to get outside the camp. I've also got the major quest from the camp commander, and a third one as well. I have explored everything (I think!) and have acquired some nice initial items. Stole stuff from the storage rooms, and sold what I could. Bought a lockpick and a battle potion (that gives me two, because I found another one). Getting outside will be the puzzle. I will tackle it tomorrow!
So glad I don't have to move the computer!
