Sherlock Holmes - The Secret of the Silver Earring Is there any way around this? Maybe a site other than Big Fish that might list PC games separated into meaningful genres? If you don't have a title in mind and/or don't know the games generated by the Search program, you are back to having to download a trial to find out what it is. The problem remains: If you are looking for a specific game that you already know about, fine. I do see other games in the Large File list that I know are "Adventure," but only because I already played them and so I know them to be such. I know because I have played many of them. When you do that, it generates a huge list that includes all the Mystery Tracker and Mystery Case Files and Dark Parables and Hidden Expedition games - all HOGs. Yep, I have tried searching by "Large File" games, too. But how can a person find other Adventure games without having to download a trial game each time, to see if it really is "Adventure" and not another HOG? Is that even possible? There clearly are some true "Adventure" games in their mix - games like Agon, Nibiru, Amerizone, etc - and I took encouragement from that. This has happened to me several times already. So, you can download a trial game that you think is strictly Adventure, only to find that it starts off by dumping you into an HOG scene, and you have to unload the game and try another. Most of the games do identify their genre in a pop-up (when you mouse across the game title), so you can avoid explicitly HOG or Arcade stuff - but not all of them self-identify. I have taken the time to sort through the first two columns of games in the Adventure category, all the way down to the "P" level of the alphabet. Why even create the separate categories, when the same games appear in the multiple lists? They do the same thing for each of their other game genres, too. The thing is, Big Fish groups almost every game they have under the "Adventure" category, including HOGs, Bubble Popping, Puzzles, and even Arcade style games.
