Place the character

Jon_wachter · 02-24-2011, 04:52 PM

I thought of a new game, it's called "place that character", it will be easy to cheat, so only do it in emergencies. I don't know if this will work (or be any fun), but it's worth a shot and should the thread die, it dies.

I figured I should start so here goes nothing.

What game is "Fat Bloke" from?

Are you talking about character names or descriptions? I have no idea where the guy is from...

Jon_wachter · 02-25-2011, 08:08 AM

Well character names would be too complicated so character names only. It's from a humorous English game, that should limit the options for you to as far as I know 3 games and it's not Feeble Files urgh!

Hmm... sounds like one of my favorite games...
I remember a comment by Simon in Simon 2 about a guy who's selling something to the right of the guy who works with iron (I remember giving him some material for the Mc'swampy costume)

So, that seller is the FAT BLOKE , right ?!

Jon_wachter · 02-25-2011, 09:45 AM

Yes, it's the guy selling fabric who wants Simon to find a magic lamp for him.
Very good Kate Me.

I dunno if this is ok, but lets see...

A little warm up (easy for all AG's) :

_Men of low moral fiber _

....and another one a bit more tricky

_White fur_

Men of low moral fiber is from the Scum bar in Monkey Island 1 but the second one is tricky, don't know that one. Will have to think about it, possible I haven't even played the game if it's from the last 10 years.

If you wanted to nitpick, you could point out that the "Men of low moral fiber" are actually in the streets of Mêlée and not in the Scumm Bar.

I have no idea about the white fur though. These are supposed to be "hot spot descriptions" of characters, I take it?

-Actually IT IS from the last 10 years! In fact is from a very recent game!

A scared "white fur" creature!

-They are! They're from MI 1 , those three guys from the streets of Mêlée.

And I think they also appear in MI2 sleepy and drunk!

jhetfield21 · 02-27-2011, 12:23 AM

is the white fur referring to the weird bear/dog creature from Syberia 2?

The lamb in Lost Horizon!

uuuhhh horse-goat.....but good one.didn't know you're the religious type!!!

kate me · 02-27-2011, 07:29 AM

Even if he is scared like a little lamb, it's a goat! and IT IS from Lost Horizon!

When Fenthon tries to speak BAA BAAH! the goat is even more scared of him!
That whole village remind me a little of BS2 and I think that's why I like that goat!

Anyway, nice job guys!

jhetfield21 · 02-27-2011, 07:53 AM

oh right i had forgotten about the village and the tiger.....

Yeah, sorry, that should have been the *kid from Lost Horizon
I also thought it was the dog/seal from Syberia 2 until it hit me today.

So, Jon posts the next one? He guessed the first one, either that or we can post each ours I guess..

kate me · 02-27-2011, 08:29 AM

Well, the second one was a little tricky , and the first was just for warm up so, go ahead!

Panthera · 02-27-2011, 01:49 PM

Well then:
