Hints:

4. All about time.
5. Has the word "time" in the title.
8. Featured in a community playthrough.
13. All about dying.
15. Clock goes "boom!"
17. Educational in a creepy way, not really an adventure.
27. Takes place in Paris. Easily the worst adventure ever made. I hate it with a passion.
28. Dumb, stupid, silly
42. Hey, this game also takes place in Paris, what a coincidence.
44. Looking for a date?

Yes. The Morlov Affair. You can play it both in English and French. As a matter of fact, it's one of the few adventures (if not the only one) where you can switch languages within the game whenever you like. \

No, Diego. Sorry. The first letter is correct though. Obviously, my screenshot was far too difficult.

You can say that again. Many times!

For instance, number 28 is

So Blonde

Size:  695 BytesName:  isuse.gif
Views: 58
Size:  1.1 KB, and due to your "canvas technique" it was very unrecognizable/difficult to get.

Even a distinguishable connoisseur like SD (who's favo(u)rite game it is!) didn't get it!
Luckily you gave good hints (dumb, silly, stupid, ... ).

Yeah, I finally realized my quizzes weren't popular at all after the Vampire/Vamp one, and I promised myself I wouldn't make another one. Unfortunately, I really enjoy putting them together. I also have this tendency to forget important lessons with the passing of time...

That is total bullshit. Excusez le mot.

You drew a completely wrong conclusion: I like your quizes very much, but the second picture was of bad quality (compared to your first picture) and that's all. Nothing more.

OK, see by yourself (if you can see what I see):


P.S. The original you had was a bit blurred too so it doesn't differ too much from the picture you posted, I admit, but the problem is that the original picture wasn't crisp as the shots from So Blonde are.

Hey, I had a great time guessing and I'm really sorry this turned the way it turned. You can punish me (), but let the quiz last till all the games are guessed.

Thanks, Oscar.

BTW, the quiz was always meant to last no more than two days. Read my first post, Z.

I thought you were joking. How on Earth were I supposed to know how many days is 172,800 seconds?

I hope you'll forgive me and make a lot more of mind-twisting quizes in the future. Please do so!
