I think the scoring that best describes me would be the Veteran, because my brother did introduce me to Kings Quest V. The lower end of Veteran, at least. And my score's a little below that mark ...but I saw some of my favorite games on there, so I'm happy. I do echo some of the others when I say I wish some of them were bigger.

I got 21, but I've played all those you mentioned in the parentheses and the only picture I recognized was from Last Express.

Anyways, I got around 20, lost count, plus it depends on how super-accurate you have to be.

I only recognized 20 for sure at the first glance, and I'm labeled a young adventurer ??? No, no, no... I consider myself a veteran adventurer, hehe... so...

edit: Went back for a second round, and I'm able to add 7 more, so 27 total now...

Fun quiz, but I do think some pics are a tad too small. If there's a slightly larger set I'm certain I can recognize a few more.

I'm terrible at this! I've been playing adventure games since as early as I can remember almost, played pretty much every famous series, every big release, and dozens upon dozens of other games, and can only get maybe 15-20 of these. :x

29, of which 6 I'm not 100% sure.

Just 1 shy of the rating that best describes me...

I'll add a few to the pics already identified by OneFlesh and Afterabrisknap (although I have my doubts about one or two, for instance imo #78 = Beneath A Steel Sky).

17. Barrow Hill
46. The Lost Crown
62. Culpa Innata
81. Moment of Silence

Ah, that should have been #79. Fixed.

Hmmm... turns out that the whole list between 60 and 80 had been displaced by one number. My mistake.

You've lost me, I'm afraid. IMO, #78 is correct. I was referring to your #24.

But I don't have a #78 now, so it can't be correct. What are you talking about?

It's possible #24 is not BASS. That's why it's listed with a question mark. However, looking at #78 more closely, I'm pretty sure that's not BASS either. My guess would be Full Throttle.

Don't have much time, unfortunately, so for now I'll confirm that #24 is indeed BASS, and #78 is Full Throttle - nice going After a brisk! You've managed to nail some of the scenery ones which I thought will be almost impossible to recognise - like Full Throttle, The Dig and Al Emmo Also, I belive you nailed almost everything else you answerd, except for a couple or so...
