Default Quiz: The art of concept art
So, where would the world be without concept arts?

Here's the collection of concept arts from various, mostly very well known adventure games. There are some surprises () along the way of course, just to make things slightly complicated.

Rules:

You can make one guess. You can take another guess after your previous guess has been answered. At some point, i may say remaining pics are up for grabs.

Additional notes:

As i said, majority of these pics are from some legendary and well known titles, along with a couple of recent games, too. I didn't want to make it too hard, so i included only concept arts for game locations that actually pretty much resemble in-game screens. And just not to make things too easy, there are couple of them that are pretty much unique for what they are... but more of that later. Good luck!

1. 2.

3. 4.

5. 6.

7. 8.

9. 10.

11. 12.

13. 14.

15. 16.

17. 18.

19. 20.

21. 22.

23. 24.

Wow, that's a nice idea!

... and it turns out it's much harder than I thought it was going to be. Let's start with a complete guess...

24.
Spoiler:
Isn't that from a cancelled Full Throttle sequel?

i figured, and wanted to give hint that you got the company right but rayvio got it, it's Ankh

#24 was one of the "traps", and Kurufinwe got it right - it's from cancelled Full Throttle sequel. A while ago, i've stumbled upon this article and was surprised to see that Full Throttle actually had two planned sequels - Payback and Hell on Wheels. This one is from Payback with Bill Tiller's art, and there's another artwork for this one:



hint - there is one another picture to guess from cancelled LucasArts' game
