Correct, seagul. BTW, I was hoping you would join the TLE playthrough...?

Arial, I haven't played Shadow of the Comet, so how am I to know it has a marvelous lighthouse. There were two other lighthouses I really wanted to include, but I was unable to google a pic and I didn't feel like reinstalling (and playing!) two games just for a silly quiz.

Oh, sorry, 9 is

Only 1 and 6? None of the others, even the ones already mentioned? You disappoint me.

zobraks · 01-26-2011, 11:29 AM

I recognised Myst at once of course and numbers 2,5,8 and 10 look(ed) familiar, but that's all for now. I'm sorry I disappointed you

Fien just mentioned one of those two. It's very popular around here at the moment.

Take no offense, I was only joking, in memory of previous quizes) It's just the first thing that comes to mind when thinking about lighthouses.

).
