I think I did a much better job with the third one than the second.

Assuming you are asking me:

1. I do not dislike mansions that didn't get on my top ten.

2. The reason I put DD on the list but not KK is the gold/silver blocks puzzle in DD, which is, in my opinion, the best g/s puzzle in the game.

Oh, thank you so much, Suzanne.... I had feared already nobody'd like it...as nobody had ever talked about it anywhere on the boards....

Relieved, 8-)

Well - I keep having to go back to the second save point to try again and again and again... but I'll get on a bit further soon, I think! Anyway, Jack is tired of dying and being reborn all the time, so I'd better do better, that's all!

My only confusion is not knowing, exactly, which way to go... so I keep doubling back and keep checking the map to see big gaping black holes here and there. As I said, it's a super puzzle!

Anyone like Echo Keep? I loved that one.   (Other then Semi-Native)

Defenitely. But where is Miss Lemon, btw?

Thought I'd bring this thread back up. There's been many new mansions since and I'm curious. Also, what makes your top 10 so much fun?

I am not sure whether it is a good idea to open up this thread again since there are so many new mansions since it was started. There are a few things I look at when I deem mansion

good

:

1. Good puzzles
2. High problem solving level (not quite the same as 1. IMO
3. Good playability (no JS, HJS or CD's)
4. Fun to play
5. Skill-training (like ladder and squirrel jumps)
6. Secrets can be found (Jack must not have to do unnnatural things to find them)
