As a poor poor college student I pinch every penny, but I've become quasi-addicted to this website (laying off a bit since finals have come around).Is it definitely worth the money to subscribe? I'd like to be able to do more than 3 cases and work with an agency, but money is, alas, a real life issue.

Yes, if you are 'addicted' it is definitely worth it. Think of all the hours you can play for just a few dollars a month! I found I actually spent so much less on other stuff, because I was playing this game, that it saved me more than enough to pay for itself. The extra cases, travel, agencies, hunts, featured mysteries - are all totally worth it.

Subscribing is a good way to have more fun and to keep this site going!

Subscribing is definitely worth the money. It's not ridiculously expensive, about $6/month I think? Plus you get 10 cases per day and can fully experience the community of this site through becoming part of an agency.

I think subscribing makes the game MUCH more fun. Agency life and the treasure hunts make it more than worth it for me. And if you are a true addict, the cost per hour of play becomes nominal. I believe Elsa when she says it saved her money - it has probably saved me money too, come to think of it!

I don't play that much, Hargrove, and I think subscribing is worth it.

Thanks everyone! I'll probably subscribe next semester...somehow I doubt my dial up connection will like this website.

*laughs* By the way when you're a poor college student $6 dollars a month can make the difference when you try to decide how many vegetables you can afford to buy for food.

Heehee.... You will find you may forget to eat from time to time you will be having so much fun!! :)

I play on dial up. It only hurts if I try talking too much..which, okay, is most of the time! :)
