Well the title says it all.

Firstly I would like to thank you all for sharing awesome games with me. I am really grateful, that you guys introduced me to Borderland, BioShock & Fallout series. Right now I am enjoying Zachtronic games, which of course is because of one of the game that I won almost 4 years back which you shared. I am also thankful for awesome indie games like Plague Inc, SteamWorld Heist, This War of Mine and many many more.

I started including some stats in my C'Day threads from my 1st C'Day. So like always here are some stats.

Topics 1st Year 2nd Year 3rd Year 4th Year Total
Games Won on SG 20 20 7 9 56
Games Sent (Will be) 56 44 68 32(41) 200(209)
GA Entered 4885 4803 1992 2758 14438
Comments 931 523 191 373 2018
Games/Apps in Library 69/3 99/3 109/3* 124/3* 124/3*

Anyways I've made some GA with what I had lying around with me. So here's the link to SGTools protected GA. The rules are:

  • No non-activated wins
  • No multiple wins (recent 2 years)
  • No Vac bans
  • No trade bans
  • Real Sent/Won ratio = 0.6

Last time I messed up with one of the SGTools custom rule, which I found out the next day. I hope I haven't messed up this time.

oh, I only played Opus Magnum so far (and, welp, Eliza, but it doesn't really count), but after that I decided to try others by Zachtronics (I was a bit skeptical before, but more on my abilities to play, not about the games as such :D). What's your favourite?

and Happy late cakeday!

Thanks Krol :)
To be fair I haven't played all the games from Zachtronics. I started with TIS-100 almost 4 years ago. Played Shenzhen I/O almost 4 months back, which is why I wanted to try other Zachtronics games. Right now I am playing Opus Magnum's bonus puzzles.

For me the favorite one is Shenzhen I/O. You'll be working as an engineer for a Chinese firm, writing instructions/codes in the micro-controllers for different electronic devices. You are provided with 41 pages long manual on basic assembly language syntax and various micro-controller components. That manual made the whole difference in my gameplay experience.

Printed out the manual, created a folder/binder. Every time I played the game, the folder containing information about electronic components would just be in-front of me. At times I would have to refer to the info on specific document on the folder to complete the puzzle. It really felt immersive. It was like I was working not playing some game. It was quite an experience.
And also there is an in-build solitaire gamejust like Sigmar's Garden in Opus Magnum which really refreshes your mind if you are stuck on any puzzles.

"Eliza" has solitaire (variation) too, not sure it was relaxing, though. Overall, it's not the game you think about when someone says "Zachtronics game", but it's a decent, modern visual novel :)
It sounds good, you strengthen my intention to try, and I think I'll borrow your idea with printing out the manual :D
Thank you for sharing!
