Quiz: Trees a Crowd!

Trunkyo · 02-14-2011, 09:32 AM

A veritable forest of adventure game trees in various shapes, sizes and colours.

Please read before posting!
Since I would like as many people as possible to participate in this quiz, I will humbly request that you abide by the following:
1) If you wish to post in this thread directly, as a courtesy, please guess only ONE picture in the first 4 hours (in spoiler tags, of course) or a maximum of TWO in the first 12 hours. You are, however, free to mention any other pics you recognize (i.e. by number only). I will offer hints for any unidentified pics after 12 hours, and anyone will be allowed to guess the remaining ones.
2) You may also PM me with your entire list of guesses, especially if you recognize more than ten pictures.

You will also notice that each pic also contains a letter of the alphabet. They're for a bonus game... details to follow!

And now, on with the quiz!

#14 is from my loving...

It's interesting that...

Spoiler:

I also recognise numbers 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 13, 17, 18, 19, 21, 22, 24, 25, 26. Can't place numbers 1, 3, 6, 9, 11, 15, 16, 23, but I'm sure I saw them before.

All correct guesses so far!

The four-hour mark is now up, so anyone who's already made a guess may now make one more for the remaining pics.

Number 2 is also

All the other I knew have already been guessed, so my work is done here.
But I'm so happy that I guessed my favourite game, two times!
