100% Correct. Sorry - I was AFK for a bit! :)
Excellent, why haven't we done this before?
I dont know. When I came up with it I was worried that it HAD been done before! Glad its a new thing :)

involuntarily forced to foil the plan of a group called the "Seven Deadly Fins" who're trying to take over the (water-)world.

This game already featured the 'combining notes' function. Only it's execution in-game was so particular and at the same time so random (you had to guess which
words were important and which ones weren't) that it drove you nuts! Still, a great game...

The next one is a bit tricky: I hope you guys will forgive me, but I had to 'alter' it slightly.
Where it says 'Player' is has the protagonist's name in the original screen-shot. (That would've been
a dead giveaway.)

Druuna, the comic, does have oodles of European sci-fi weirdness to it, but it's also wall-to-wall genitals. The game is just six CDs of balls.

There are many great well-known games to guess. If you want to make it harder cut out interface, or character, or post non-gameplay screenshot. I mean, take that "Death Gate" post for example. It was clever, and I had my slap facepalm "Of course!!!" moment when I saw the answer. And I was hoping to get many of those here. I wish somebody posted a King's Quest V screenshot I could not guess, or some other widely known game. You get the idea. :smiley:

I used to haunt a local department store's computer section, just to be able to play that game (before knowing anything about computers or owning one).
I remember, I got chased away by the store clerks on a regular base, only to sneak back in after an hour or so!
Never knew what it was called though...
edit: That's so AWESOME!! Still can't believe it! (Sorry for raving - I'm' having kind of a moment here!! :tongue:)
THIS game is how I got into computers in the first place! (Around later that year I got my C-64) WOW!

Maybe you read the Entertainment Weekly review. That is one train wreck of a GUI and it looks like a kid drew the horned, orange stick figure.

Beyond ShadowgateBeyond Shadowgate is a PC-E... errr... TG16 game and it's nothing like this (it in fact looks like those Sierra/Lucasfilm Games adventure games).
It's more likely Shadowgate 64 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shadowgate_64:_Trials_of_the_Four_Towers).
But anyway, take the turn.

That scene indeed looks familiar from a Larry Game. Hmmm, may be Leisure Suit Larry: Passionate Patty (I think that's Larry 5 - in that case you are absolutely right nihilyst).

Btw. have you ever played it?
Nope, but I'm aware of it as being one of the early adventure games. Around the time it came out, or maybe a little after, I was plugging away on an Atari 8-bit (800xl and later 130xe).

Could be tough...So for a slight hint, this one came out in the early 90s.
In the beginning of the game your character is attacked by an alien mugger, and the police reward you for capturing him (or it).

Getting back to game guessing... I still don't have a clue. :)
Post by: abstauber on 18 Jul 2013, 15:05
It didn't have an HDD anyway, so playing Indy 4 and MI2 would have been a disk swapping nightmare.
Then I bought a used A1200 in 2000 because there still wasn't a great pixel painter on the PC (hooray for DPaint V).
The game I'm looking for was only two years old by the time I bought the A1200 (hint#2). And yes, it's a commercial title and I was pretty stunned, that the "old" machine had an adventure, you couldn't have on the PC :)
And hint#3 - it's a german/italien co-production, I even found a review from Amiga Magazyn on the interwebs :)

On the contrary, for some. Back in those days I had a friend who always wanted to come by and watch me playing Indy 4... and swap those 11 disks what he thoroughly enjoyed (laugh) I assume it had to be some "Look mom! I'm computer scientist!" thing. :P I was a good friend and let him have fun. :)
And about your game... I must admit part of the gui does look familiar. I mean that disk symbols on the right. I guess I must have seen screensots in a magazine or something but I will never be able to guess it. It will be one of "Oh, THAT." when I see game's title.

@qptain Nemo: I'm stunned how fast you've guessed Ooze. So it was had some commercial success outside of Germany?I naively thought it was somewhat apparent that I'm just a game nerd, with huge interest in 90s abandonware and adventure games in particular, and a MobyGames addict. ^_^ I haven't even played Ooze yet, but it looked interesting and that particular screenshot amused me a lot when I stumbled upon it, so it was definitely memorable for me. So I can't comment on Ooze's commercial success outside of Germany, but that's the story behind my guess.

A more revealing screenshot, but I've taken the liberty of still hiding two things.
(http://i.imgur.com/kLXyxxl.png)
In exchange I can tell you it was an edutainment game, and I'm not finding much presence for it online aside from a couple of lets plays and pages on abandonware sites. Nemo already has a vague direction of the date of release from what I corrected of his guess earlier.
I can't make it any easier other than almost literally giving away the name of the game (which you'd be able to totally guess from what I've hidden :D).

It's an adventure game, with some minor combat and another gameplay element that is found both in adventure games and RPGs. And it's a good game, mind.

Anyway, here's a new one... not really sure how easy / difficult it will be. I'm going back to a game I really loved back on the ZX Spectrum many years ago... not an adventure game.

Don't know the game though.

Nah, that game had a top-down isometric view on the Speccy (not sure about other systems). :P
Right, new screenie... I don't think this one's been done before (and sorry, I'm not about to check back 47 pages worth to make sure!)...
I remember this one from the Atari ST.

Afraid not!
It's not an adventure game - it's a futuristic sports sim.
I'm not sure posting another screenshot would help, because they're pretty much all the same... so I'll give it another day and if no-one gets it, spill the beans and try another one.

Yea, I might have jumped the gun as he didn't actually verify in his response. But I'm 90-some percent sure its Franko.
And Gilbot is correct on Chiller. So its either his turn, or my fault for not waiting for official Gribbler verification and the turn is still on that crazy side-scroller.

Is this point & click adventure game?The game involving a giant horse head is a point'n click.
The one in my screen is a visual novel.

Oh, yeah?Chirp Chirp Blazing Crew?Tsk, tsk, tsk, miguel, trying to win by bruteforcing the title with the video game name generator is cheating!
Seriously, I did not use the game name generator. I had a dream of a game like that, directed by Tarantino or Antinomian(the word that came out of Firefox's spell checker).

No need to be sorry at all, I perfectly understand. Secret of Monkey Island is that very special game for me and I'm sure there's someone somewhere who hates that game. In some awkward and broken parallel universe perhaps (laugh)

More clues, then? Ok...
It's a freeware detective adventure game.
It's part of a 4-game series.
It plays with the keyboard and has a retro feel, though it was released in 2007.

This a scrolling shooter, released in 1992. Apart frm shooting enemies player could slit their throats if approached undetected. I played it extensivly as a kid.

The author released the game for free later, so while it may be a bit of a problem getting it to run on modern computers, I'd still recommend you try it out:

It wasn't a super-amazing game or anything, but I'm surprised the resident experts didn't know about it :D. Was an okay enough first person space exploration trading/fighting (and a small bit of adventure RPG) type sim in the vein of the Star Control series.

The only 2-player Boulderdash game I remember was Skullduggery - but I think that was significantly later (had it on the Atari ST, but I guess it might have been released on the 8-bits previous to that?).

For some reason I LOL'd heartily at that Track and Field screenshot.
For me its the referee. The guy looks like a midget in comparison to the runners, he is dressed like a golfer from the 20s, and for some reason was made in CGA-style graphics.

Also I like how much the runners are stretched across the track, like if they're crawling in a very weird half-lying pose, dragging half their butt on the ground. It took me until now to realize this is supposed to be them kneeling at the start of the race. If I still got that wrong, laugh all you want.

Interesting. It's not Dark Seed 2 is it?
First time I knew the answer... and I'm too late.
Can the next one be a horror game too?... (so I would maybe have a sliver of hope of guessing what it is?;) )

Alright. So... it's an RPG. It's quite unexpectedly humourous and interesting. I say unexpectedly because the theme of the game is something countless other games have played with a straight face and done it to death. A part of the name of the theme is also a part of the name of the game.

One more for Grim: HORROR! As far as I can remember, probably the first game in that genre that I've played.
It scared the bejesus out of me!!

I've never ever seen any other version than the Commodore 64 one - not even in screenshots
edit: Sorry, didn't see your answer there Gribbler. Dude, are you reading my mind?! 8-0 'Zombi' was my first choice, but then I went with this one instead, since Zombi is a bit plain
colorwise...
All of you are on the right track. The game's not zombie exclusive though...

That's Alf all right... I'm racking my brain trying to think how a game that features Alf can be considered scary! Speaking of Alf, he had his own adventure game back in the day if I remember correctly.

Don't get too hung up on the whole ALF thing. It's the inside of a cinema with ALF up on screen, he's just an 'easter egg' (...you blow up that same cinema later on in the game!)
ALF is really just a good indicator around what time this game came out.
Here's the title screen (without the title obviously! :tongue:):

I'm just a devoted gamer with a little bit of deductive skills. If I don't know the game instantly the process looks something like this (Inindo example): Top-down view, looks like RPG, Asian theme, looks like early 90s, probably '92 or '93, most likely Asian word in the title, and hey, what have we here? Way of the ninja? Must be it. Bingo!

I never played it but it's supposedly the worst adventure game of all time.I'd say it's far from it. I mean it has its flaws, obviously. But it's also absolutely hilarious both intentionally and unintentionally most of the time. And the curiousity factor is also high due to its unique and bizarre nature. So, I'm afraid, I must admit I've rather enjoyed every minute of that game I've played and I still intend to finish it someday.

Is it true that it has been pretty much glue sticked together with the assets stolen from various games and movies? By just three guys.Yeah, virtually all the backgrounds are stolen from all over the place. All the characters seem to be original though. Also as far as I know the designers of the game claimed that they had no idea this was the case, because whoever agreed to make graphics for them did this without their knowledge.

Bedsides, we're the Net generation and have a really low attention span. Multi-threading and having a guessing game exceeding more than one game at a time would instantly fry our brains.
But primarly: Armageddon rarely remembers that he won his turn in this thread :P AND Grim is rarely THAT confident guessing a game! 8-) We simply can't pass on this opportunity! :=
On topic: I'm damn sure, I've never played that one. I'd even go as far as suspecting Armageddon of having drawn that scene, just to put us off the scent... :cool:

Well, LimpingFish guessed Armageddon' pic, but Cubefiend posted a new one before that, because his new. Then LimpingFish passed the turn to Cubefiend. Adeel guessed Cubefiend's pic, but then said "Courtesy of Gurok, if I'm correct, pass the next turn to him please". So, it's your turn, really.
Thanks for explaining, janosbiro. I really didn't have any idea what game was that. Its just that I happened to be chatting with Gurok on IRC at that time, so I asked him. It was his answer all the way, actually. :)

It might be intro from Teen Agent.
Oh... I played Teenagent! I remember when the game was made, I even wrote to Metropolis (the developer) to offer some of my sprites for their future productions (as you do when you're 13 and full of hope).
I attached a floppy disk with the letter, and even got a reply from Adrian Chmielarz!
Therefore, shame on me, for not recognizing Teenagent... It was a really shitty game, though;)

Quote from: Ben X
Outcast - the voxeltastic game I always think of whenever anyone mentions Outlast and then get disappointed when I realise.I think of Comanche or Delta Force when someone mentions voxels. Outcast was a brilliant game with a beautiful cinematic score. Sadly, the gameplay feels a little bit outdated now...
Go ahead with the next game, Ben.

It's more of a visual novel than a standard puzzle solving adventure game, but I remember the story being really good.
I'm not suggesting you go downloading ROMs and emulators, but if you were to find yourself with a ROM of the game and you happened to download the fan translation patch (http://www.romhacking.net/translations/850/), place it in the same directory as the ROM and give it the same name, you might find yourself playing a fun detective game with a great story and a think verb. Or you could learn Japanese and buy the original cartridge, I guess.
Anyway, Gribbler, your turn.

I do not know the title, I even don't know if it had a title but I had this game when I was a kid! It was this little Russian handheld machine with only one game. I also had the one with the diver and an octopus.

Well, I did not image search it. :) Cassiebsg didn't exactly specify if image search was used, I only assumed it. I might be wrong of course. If the answer is a result of various questions to good old Uncle google then such answer is perfectly fine in my book.
Post by: Cassiebsg on 04 Apr 2014, 22:02
To my defense, I did not find any of GarageGothic's pics on the search though, another showed up that I thought "that looks like it would fit"... But not my fault the artist did a lousy job on the second pic, since it got me curious as it had nothing to do with the first one (in my eyes anyway)... :D
Oh yeah, and I did say I cheated, right? :) And I took the time to hide it even... :p

The international title is Archimedean Dynasty which is the prequel of Aquanox.
But yes - it plays a lot like an underwater Wing Commander and is highly recommended.

Gribbler, you're right, as usual:) It's Outlast.Really?? I played it only because it was free on PSN+ and not for too long. I don't recognize the screenshot from the game but it has the same horror-y mental asylum feel to it. :) I must admit, the game has its moments if you play on headphones and in the dark but I couldn't stand constant running and hiding gameplay mechanics. I so wanted to fight those guys! :D Not necessairly with a gun but give me a crowbar, a shovel, give me something! :)

In my opinion it's the best Silent Hill game ever created. And Pyramid Head was one of the best and original monsters I've seen in a game. Funny how Shinji Mikami is trying the same thing with his Evil Within now but instead of the pyramid monster has a giant safe on his head. :)

Damn, I remember that, it's called Castle Quest or something - don't remember the real title.

GarageGothic is correct! Castle Adventure was done before..

The game does feature an Arctic base, though. More obscure than The Thing, and substantially more obscure than Assassins Creed, the game is known by two English-language titles (US and EU). I prefer the EU title, myself.
It also features some terrible vehicle sections, as evidenced here:

Time for some hints! This is a PC-only action game, from an Eastern European developer. I have a feeling that the following image will give the game away to those who may have vague recollections of playing it, as it highlights the game's most useful play view:

Post by: LimpingFish on 21 May 2014, 20:25
Maybe another hint?
Okay. The game was released in 2005.
The game is the third in a series, though all ties to the other two games were removed from the English-language version. Which is weird, as the as the first game was released in both the US and EU, and the second game was also available in English (in the EU).

It's the final game in the "Gorky 17" series ("Gorky 17"/"Odium" being the first, followed by "Gorky 17: Beyond Honor") by Metropolis Software, who are now part of CD Projekt RED, the developers of "The Witcher" games. I played it back when in was first released (as "Aurora Watching"), and, despite some wonky AI and awkward controls, I found it to be a decent stealth game.

The demo is interactive, you access several demo rooms by manoeuvreing a winged lion (wtf)

Seriously, I can't make a guess now since out of curiosity I looked it up - I have never played the game but I have heard of it.
Maybe another screenshot is in order?

Is it actually a beat-em-up (or whatever Street Fighter games are called these days)?If you have one arena and two fighters (like in Street Fighter, Mortal Kombat or Soulcalibur) it's a fighting game. If you go one way and fight baddies attacking you all the time it's a beat-em-up.
Oh, and I don't know this game. Some super early Double Dragon? :)

That screen provided enough clues for me to find it, but I would never guess it, since I hadn't even heard of it before. :/You don't have to know or hear about the game to guess it. That's what the clues are for. I also found the game but since you were first, go ahead. :)

Slots don't open up, Mandle, you have to guess someone else's game to get a turn. That looks like a photo of the Blackwell Island Lighthouse rather than a screen-grab anyway.
Whoops sorry!
Exactly...it's a photo. But, there's something special about this particular photo I think, unless my eyes deceive me ;)

Post by: Gurok on 16 Jul 2014, 23:49
Babar, two loosely connected titles, Spell-a-Saurus being the 'sequel'. You should check it out if you can find it anywhere. It's even rarer than Eco-Saurus. Its gameplay is definitely distinct from Eco-Saurus. Eco-Saurus has you picking up rubbish, this has you spelling words. It's also got PC speaker text-to-speech. Not sure if Eco-Saurus had that.
Your turn, Gribbler.

Post by: Cassiebsg on 26 Jul 2014, 20:44
EDIT 1: Seems like this one already been posted here, even though the pic is gone now.
Should I just find another one?
EDIT 2: Okay, decided to find another one, I'll leave the first one up though.... guess both? ROFL.
Anyway, the thing nightmares are made off:

My dad used to drive us crazy with Bomb Jack (which I always called it Bomber Jack, for some odd reason), as he played it for hours... meaning we couldn't play anything... :D
Iceboty, your turn.
CW, for some odd reason I thought the name of the game was a one word only, and all I could remember of it was that it was French, had "dinosaurs", desert and the sound track, which I loved so much that I actually transfered it to tape so I could listen to it in the walkman/car. :)
