Default Quiz: Don't call us, we'll call you

Yes, I know what I said.
But it's been very quiet here lately...
And SweetDahlilah asked if I was going to do another one...
And this quiz was almost finished anyway...

Two pics max.

So the bonus pic is

Number 4 definitely is

Spoiler:
Edna and Harvey: The Breakout


With #10 I'll have to go on a guessing trip:

Spoiler:
My guess is that it is from one of the episodic installments of Sam & Max. (If the pic in the background is a motorcycle with a sidecar and a white rabbity thing in it). I don't believe that season one had such high resolution and as far as I remember Sam & Max never set foot in their office in season three, so I'll go for Sam & Max: Beyond Space and Time. Hard to tell the exact episode. Never played nor translated it.

Oops SweetDahlilah! I didn’t do it on purpose this time, honestly. It’s too much of a dah-li-a ...lah-di-dah... la-dee-da thing for me. Can I please call you SD from now on?

Only 6 more to go. I see the more difficult pics haven’t been guessed yet. Come on, people! You can do it.

About #10. Your conclusion was not correct, ADan. It is indeed Season One, but I realised afterwards that most episodes in both Season One and Two start with the phone ringing in the office, so there’s really no telling which Season it is.

Sorry Kate, #1 is not correct.

1.
2.
3. Amerzone (Trunkyo)
4. Edna and Harvey: The Breakout (ADan)
5. Nancy Drew: Secret of the Old Clock (Trunkyo)
6. Dark Fall 3: Lost Souls (Oscar)
7. Zork Grand Inquisitor (diego)
8. Runaway: A Road Adventure (SweetDalilah)
9.
10. Sam&Max Season 1 (ADan)
11.
12. The Lost Crown (Drolin)
13.
14. Gemini Rue (Drolin)
15. Larry 5: Passionate Patty Does A Little Undercover Work (thejobloshow)
16.
17. Memento Mori (Kate me)
18. Barrow Hill (zobraks)
19. Dracula 3: The Path of the Dragon (zobraks)
20. Feeble Files (Arial Type)
21. Noir: A Shadowy Thriller (diego)

Bonus pic: cuddly toy Lilo in the free flash game Die Anstalt. (SweetDalilah).

One of my alltime favorite amateur games. More like an interactive movie actually, but you can certainly make wrong choices. Creative, clever, cute, funny and very touching at the same time. Wonderful animations. You can play it in 7 or 8 languages. Shameless plug:

Yes, I think so too. It was very touching indeed. I just replayed it today actually

My favourite cuddly toy was the crocodile though

3. Amerzone (Trunkyo)
4. Edna and Harvey: The Breakout (ADan)
5. Nancy Drew: Secret of the Old Clock (Trunkyo)
6. Dark Fall 3: Lost Souls (Oscar)
7. Zork Grand Inquisitor (diego)

SweetD, I love all the cuddly toys, but
Spoiler:
scared little Kroko is perhaps the most touching one. There's this new Dr. Wood walking around, taking notes. I hope the developer is preparing a new toy for us to heal!
