Here's my comment on this months mags games,  in release time order:

Minor Minion:
Pros:
The best puzzles plus and a bit longer game play then the others.
Humor: funny animations and characters, an all round amusing game.
Cons:
None

Ardent Fever:
Pros:
Humor; nice scifi parody style atmosphere.
Very nice idea that phlebotinum cursor, imprinting an object into your inventory in stead of taking it.
The doors and the imprint-an-object got cool soundfx.
Cons:
Several elements are not used which confused me while playing
(maybe next time change these into not being a hotspot before release when there's time left.)

The deed:
Pros:
Nice story with that focus on that flower.
Cons:
Short and quite easy solvable game.
No animations

The north Crown:
Pros:
A strange but cool way of using the teleporting element also as a puzzle by using the trident.
Like said before: good writing.
Cons:
Bit to short.
No music, music would really have even more increased the atmosphere.

All four games did comply with the rule: Only One:

Minor Minion: only one "person" gremlin is left to beat the evil villagers [the minion]
Ardent Fever: only one person is able to save the ship [stow-away]
The Deed: only one object needed to finish [rose]
The Northen Crown: only one ruling puzzle-element to finish the game [trident]

My favorite this time was Minor Minion

Last thing:
All four games were great, congrats to all four of you!
Entering this contest and creating such games within a week makes you all a winner ;)

And now, voting results please... ::)

Might be needless to say, but run scanner(s) while in safemode ;)
And oh, this removal tool should be able to do the job...

I use avira antivir personal free since avg is pretty heavy these days.
The shield of avira does a real good job, recommended.

Blip&Blop: Balls of Steel - (platformer/shooter)Sorta dodgy, but blowing the heads of smurfs and (S)carebears is fun!
I remember this one. Man, that was fun, blasting smurfs, carebears and... lemmings!!!
And it's freeware too...

I wouldn't recommend anyone to be influenced by other people's opinion when it comes to games
Me neither ;)
But I remember there have been some controversy about this subject so I would like to know the "official rule" on this...

Dual, for my own idea and to avoid 'problems', when is it allowed to give comments about the games:
After the voting results to not influence others who are maybe going to vote or just after playing before voting or voting results?
Thanx.

Someone noticed this?

Spoiler
Grot + Canco = Expand Spell, a fourth spell that has no use in the game as far as I know.
Maybe a typically mags-game-unused-element?

Thanx Leon!

Question for Leon:
Spoiler
I could never figure out what the 'shadow' down left in the brig was...
Have you been able to find out what it was in case you played and solved this game in another way, if that is possible anyway. Or is it maybe just an unused element?
