A question about Night of Mystery

by Eric

Have you heard of the company: "Night of Mystery.com"? I'm just wondering if these mysteries are freeform mysteries.

My response:

I've heard of Night of Mystery.com, but I don't really know their games. I've not seen one in detail - but from what I can tell on their website the games appear to be "freeform" in style.

(However, they appear to be partly scripted and don't appear to be as completely interactive as those by Freeform Games.)

Unfortunately they don't offer a refund if the game isn't to your liking. If you try one - do let me know how it goes!

Update: See the comments to find out why I'm not particularly impressed with Night of Mystery...

Ripped off Dinner and a Murder
by: Mary Lee

She actually ripped off Dinner and a Murder. She bought one of my games about 4 years ago and then released one almost exactly the same. I mean in every way, even same theme. Different characters were the only difference. She didn't even bother to reword things, as she told me, you cannot copyright rules and my whole system I developed is considered a rule. I asked her to at least use a little imagination and change something to make hers unique from mine and she told me that if I would tell her what to change she would change it!

Her themes are almost exactly like mine and every time I mentioned releasing a new theme, she came out with the same theme first. Fortunately for me, you cannot steal talent too;-)

She used to really bother me, but I have had too customers tell me horror stories about her and her business. It still bothers me in the fact that when someone puts out a bad game, it hurts the rest of us, as we have all just lost a potential future customer.
