Default Old school strikes again (with a quizzzzz!)

As nobody seems to remember Lankhor games any more, I will put a little quizz there for your entertainment (mostly adventure games but a few RPGs)
(Just because I'm on holiday tonight, I had a major binge yesterday, I just commited my code and I don't feel like working)
Some are pretty hard! Some are much easier if you're French (Ninth and Leonard, I'm watching ya!)


1) Who is Frozarda?
2) On what platform could you play Masquerade?
3) Who can open the ornated egg?
4) Where is Carnby alone?
5) In what game is Tracy squatting your PDA?
6) How many characters were you playing in Drakkhen?
7) What game is called The Frozen Legacy?
8) What is your job at the beginning of Les voyageurs du temps (Future Wars)?
9) What item is the key to beating Charon at poker in Myth?
10) What is the common characteristics of all characters' names in Mortville Manor?
11) Who strikes back after Dungeon Master?
12) In what game are you tricked by Kronos?
13) What happens to your hand if you play Captain Blood for too long?
14) What piece of hardware was shipped with BAT ST version?
15) How are rendered the characters in Cruise for a Corpse?
16) What are the three "erotic" games by Coktel?
17) What is the name of the heroin of Lost In Time?
18) How was the scrolling In Murder in Venice?
19) What does GNUSTO do?
20) How are times in Tonetown?

(PS : Using google is cheating. But it will help )

This is a collective thing, just contribute the answers you know!

14) What piece of hardware was shipped with BAT?
This is to hard to find an answer too.

Do you mean like an soundblaster that had BAT included or BAT that included some hardware ..

As these bundles are often not worldwide and it can be different brands..

Also BAT had about 4 ports c64,Amiga, Atari ST and PC.. which of these are you thinking of ?

As c64 might have been bundled with a joystick
Amiga and Atari ST a mouse
and a PC either a mouse or a soundcard..

I am hoping to hit the right answer by trial and error .. much like my adventure skill ..

;-)

You're right I was thinking of the original version on ST

Haven't read the other answers, so sorry for length - just killing a bit of time over lunch ;-)

1) Who is Frozarda?

Not a clue.

2) On what platform could you play Masquerade?

You mean Vampire? Windows.

3) Who can open the ornated egg?

You mean Last Express? Cath, and possibly Whitney. Kronos can't though.

4) Where is Carnby alone?

Nowhere. There are always monsters everywhere, especially In The Dark

5) In what game is Tracy squatting your PDA?

Real world. Damn shareware apps...

6) How many characters were you playing in Drakkhen?

Four, at least for the first few minutes. Then the stupid buggers got killed by the shark outside Prince Unpronouncable's place.

7) What game is called The Frozen Legacy?

The Frozen Legacy. Duh.

8) What is your job at the beginning of Les voyageurs du temps (Future
Wars)?

Window cleaner - possibly a janitor, but you certainly start out cleaning windows.

9) What item is the key to beating Charon at poker in Myth?

Cards. They're important.

10) What is the common characteristics of all characters' names in Mortville
Manor?

I've never heard of any of them. This is at least An Answer.

11) Who strikes back after Dungeon Master?

Chaos.

12) In what game are you tricked by Kronos?

The Last Express? Although he doesn't trick you.

13) What happens to your hand if you play Captain Blood for too long?

Your hand cramps around your mouse and turns into a deadly claw.

14) What piece of hardware was shipped with BAT ST version?

I have no idea, but I'm going to guess that it's a dongle. I can't think of anything else it would have needed.

15) How are rendered the characters in Cruise for a Corpse?

You mean the graphics? Rotoscoped 3D.

16) What are the three "erotic" games by Coktel?

None. C'mon, they were rubbish. However, you probably mean Fascination, Emmanuelle and Woodruff and the Schnibble of Azimuth. Maybe not the latter. Maybe you mean Geisha. I can't remember if that was erotic or not.

17) What is the name of the heroin of Lost In Time?

Doralice.

18) How was the scrolling In Murder in Venice?

Just fine, thanks!

19) What does GNUSTO do?

Transfer a spell from a scroll, with gusto.

20) How are times in Tonetown?

Tass, I think.
