Yes, I used to play **7th Guest**. It was a little creepy, but I liked a lot of the puzzles in it. I’ve also liked **Myst** , but now I’m seriously into **The Sims**. (Just to stay on topic, I’ve heard that the next expansion pack will allow the Sims to have pets. Wonder if they’ll be able to have ghost pets… 🙂 )

**Hajario** , I feel sorry for your skunked dog. 😃

With my pets, I’d never know the difference. Bath or no, they all still stink to high heaven. Can’t figure out how they get it, since most of them don’t go outside. 😕

And **Second Guest** , you’re right - _7th Guest_ was terribly creepy. What did you think of the sequel, _the 11th Hour_?

I thought the first one was bad. The second one was downright **EVIL!** :eek:

But I still liked the killer ending.

**SUPERKARLENE** , I didn’t even know there _was_ a sequel to 7th Guest. From what you’ve said, though, I’m glad I never played it. I prefer games where people don’t get brutalized, terrorized or otherwise mistreated. Call me a wimp :rolleyes: , but I think games should be an escape from that sort of thing.
