Eschalon: Book 1 (http://www.mygamecompany.com/forums/../Products/Other/eschalonbook1.htm) (Adventure/RPG)
Hidden Expedition: Amazon (http://www.mygamecompany.com/Products/Other/hiddenexpeditionamazon.htm) (Hidden Object)
Hidden Expedition: Everest (http://www.mygamecompany.com/Products/Other/hiddenexpeditioneverest.htm) (Hidden Object)
Windows
Aveyond (http://www.mygamecompany.com/Products/Other/aveyond.htm) (Adventure/RPG)
Aveyond 2 (http://www.mygamecompany.com/Products/Other/aveyond2.htm) (Adventure/RPG)
Be a King (http://www.mygamecompany.com/forums/../Products/Other/beaking.htm) (Strategy/Sim)
Eschalon: Book 1 (http://www.mygamecompany.com/forums/../Products/Other/eschalonbook1.htm) (Adventure/RPG)
Hidden Expedition: Amazon (http://www.mygamecompany.com/forums/../Products/Other/hiddenexpeditionamazon.htm) (Hidden Object)
Hidden Expedition: Everest (http://www.mygamecompany.com/forums/../Products/Other/hiddenexpeditioneverest.htm) (Hidden Object)

SandScript (http://www.mygamecompany.com/Products/Other/sandscript.htm) (Word)
We've created separate pages for Adventure/RPG games for Mac and Windows, and we've added a new Sports page for Windows (we'll add one for Mac, too, once we have enough Sports games). We've had some requests for these kinds of games, so we're looking for some good family-friendly ones.
My favorite game this week is Eschalon: Book 1. This is also our first game with a Teen rating, and I've included a review to identify the issues that warranted the Teen rating. As you know if you've read my blog (http://www.mygamecompany.com/forums/showthread.php?t=285) recently, we've had some requests for games that teens might like, and I decided that if we can find some good games that would appeal to teens and are mostly clean, we may choose to carry them. This is our first one.
We also found a couple of Adventure/RPG games that appear to be 100% clean: Aveyond and Aveyond 2. Unfortunately, they are only available for Windows. However, I was able to run them successfully on my Mac through VMWare Fusion, and they ran fine.
Victoria's favorite game was Hidden Expedition: Amazon, and it seems to be an instant favorite with our customers too, because we've already sold a number of copies this week!
