As long as you use spoiler tags, guess as much as you want.

Your answer is incorrect BTW.

Ooh, a devious quiz. I like that.

(Argh. A second too late for #1...)

ozzie 05-01-2012 09:39 AM
6 is:
Spoiler:
Death Ga...no wait, Callahan's Crosstime Saloon!

Right?

I really like the theme of this quiz! A scene from Curse of Monkey Island seems to be missing, though... ;)

It Looks More like
Spoiler:
Broken Sowrd 2.5


anyways i love this quiz which make me think this is how the quizzes should be a one day run, not those everlasting ones like the usual theme for them here

Must indeed be something devious with this quiz. Being a screenshot n00b that I am I don't get it. :D :frusty:
Anyone who feels like explaining the twist (specially what was wrong with my guess for pic number 4), feel free to PM me.

Apparently I was right! Never played Callahan's Crosstime Saloon actually, but I remember the same twist in a post in the "Adventure Game Scene...uh, Game" thread. I guess it pays out to be a longstanding forum member here sometimes. ;)

@Jelena: I think everything will be explained when all the answers are revealed... :9
...just teasing!

Kurufinwe 05-01-2012 11:54 AM
I'm going to go with the obvious answer for #2:
Spoiler:
Day of the Tentacle

Adventurere No.1 05-01-2012 11:58 AM
Spoiler:


Jelena watch this i made especially for you


Edit:Kurufinwe already had it

Jelena 05-01-2012 12:05 PM
Thanks Advie!
That's clever, wasn't all that wrong then. ;)
I've played both games. Don't remember that scene though.

Adventurere No.1 05-01-2012 12:41 PM

Spoiler:
Space Quest 1 and those are the ZZ top band whom appear sometimes instead of the Blues brothers

ozzie 05-01-2012 12:57 PM
7 must be part of:
Spoiler:
the arcade mini-games from hell in The Feeble Files


Goddamnit, how to ruin an otherwise wonderful game...I'm sorry, but I try not to think about them again. *shivers*

SpeedBo 05-01-2012 01:00 PM

I'll go with slightly more obvious
Spoiler:
Maniac Mansion

nonax 05-01-2012 01:15 PM
I'm going for a try on #7

Spoiler:
Simon the Sourcerer - hmmm - 4?

Spoiler:
The graphics are too different to fool anyone and would have given the Easter Egg theme of the quiz away too quickly. Not that it lasted all that long anyway...

Bastich 05-01-2012 01:23 PM
There's still one left.

There's no reason why anyone else can't guess on shots that have already been answered as well.

Also, when the last one is guessed I'll post the answers and an explanation in the first post in spoiler tags.

so why it has not been confirmed ?!! i dont tell rules cuz i hadn't seen any, though i also made myself cautious from start
and I might had added an incorrect/wrong details about them (the Green Band) being ZZtop.. but i did guess it correctly.
and that what matters,isn't it?

so here we go again :crazy:
03 Screenshot is from
Spoiler:
Space Quest I: The Sarien Encounter

or whatever!... it supposed to be a simple quiz after all
anyways
Cheers Bastich,
really nice Quiz and looking for more tricker ones

Lady Kestrel 05-01-2012 03:29 PM
Short and very sneaky, Bastich! :) This is just a guess:
3.
Spoiler:
Leisure Suit Larry 2

Really?
Spoiler:
What about the floating corpse of Guybrush from MI1 you can find as an easter egg in MI3 if you try to go into the lake many, many times? I don't remember the scene too well, but I think that would've been of good use.

Anyway, a fun quiz! :D

Oh. I thought you were referring to this scene: http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/36/mi1j.gif/. Nobody would have confused that with Grim Fandango.

Would an evil Bastich like me really give screenshots of such popular games without there being a trick of some kind? ;)

Spoiler:
You didn't guess correctly. My screenshot wasn't taken from a Space Quest game.

Bastich 05-01-2012 05:30 PM
Number 3 still hasn't been correctly guessed. I'll give you all a hint. It's a Sierra game. Am I a nice guy or what? ;)

Adventurere No.1 05-01-2012 05:44 PM
aAahhhh But...

that is so unfair :devil:
ok!
then it must be from
Spoiler:
King's Quest 2

Now THAT is the right answer! Congrats! They've all been guessed now.

Adventurere No.1 05-01-2012 05:50 PM
that bar scene was exactly in three Sierra's Adventures (as far as i know!) and you demanded one only :crazy:

but what can i say!, its your Quiz. ;)

That may be, but my full shot differs from those. I should have extended it a bit more down to show the text. Oh well. Nobody's perfect.

Spoiler:
You should have known it wasn't Space Quest from the theme of the quiz anyway

Adventurere No.1 05-01-2012 06:57 PM
no strings attached it was fun!
i may thought it would be even more sly to include one that doesn't follow the theme :D as nothing had been officially titled :devil:

way to go Bastich , and i am sure this quiz will change the long themed quizzes which had been running around here lately,for a good change!
