Holy Anagrams Batman! Riddle me this adventure gamers!
I don't know if anyone likes to do stuff like this, but I was bored and decided to make anagrams of adventure game titles today. The fun was in making them, but I figure maybe someone would like to de-scramble them back to their original titles. Some of them are a little forced, but what can I say. Nobody is perfect. The games span the last 20 years and I used the sub-title for those that were from a series. Anyway, if anyone wants to give it a try, good luck! Oh, the number of words in the title don't necessarily match that in my anagram. If you want the number of words per title, I will give them if asked.
1) Fate Dooms The Chow 2) Fish Soften Hearts 3) Sikh To Decry Fumes On Lane 4) The Adroit Viper Dance 5) One Loves The Gas Fumes 6) The Sneaky Beatles 7) Man On A Foggy River Dive 8) The One Jungle Story 9) Rather Good Fines 10) Hold It On The First Cycle 11) A Game For The Dragon |
Help? :sad:
I don't know what to do... :o An example, perhaps :) |
You just have to rearrange the letters to find out the adventure game title. For example: IATMNAIRUS = Sanitarium. The only difference with the ones I did above is that I formed words and arranged them to seem like titles from the letters rather than leaving them a jumbled mess like the Sanitarium example.

Spoiler: These are all I could solve. I've been trying for more than half an hour with the rest but can't do them. |
Spoiler: Still no idea what these are: 5) One Loves The Gas Fumes 7) Man On A Foggy River Dive 9) Rather Good Fines |
7) is

I deciphered 2,3,4,6,8,11 (haven't read Erkki's spoilers):

WOW! I wasn't sure anyone would even try. You guys kicked butt! Between the two of you, you got all but 5 & 9.
5 is understandable because it is the US title for that game. You guys across the Atlantic got a MUCH shorter title. That might be a hint I guess... :) I am not so sure what is hard about 9 however. In the game, patches are a very bad thing though... :) |

I'm sure the last one is very simple, but I just can't solve it right now. |
I still have no clue about #9 (I lost my patience and consulted your answers for 1 and 10, Erkki).
:confused: |
#9 has 4 words and is an early 90s game.

I give up

Wow... I find nr. 9 tough, I think I managed to do:
Spoiler: |
No idea. If Royal Fool is on the right track, I'm pretty sure I don't know an AG with such a name.
I tried to make my own anagrams instead and boy it was hard. Guess they're not as good as Bastich's, but maybe someone would like to solve the following: 12) Archer-eyed Unit 13) The Old Used Arm Filter 14) Nigh Red Planet Goes (PS The hyphen in #12 is not part of the original name) |
Wow, is there any rule or tip to make anagrams like that? I have no idea how Bastich came up with all the good stuff. :P

Man, #9 has completely stumped everyone. This is the last hint before I tell. St. George is very familiar with one of the words in it. AFGNCAAP: I have answers to your anagrams, but I don't know how to post them in "spoiler" mode or I would. I don't want to ruin it for anyone else who may wish to try... |
#9.
Spoiler: Bastich, for spoilers, use the {spoiler} {/spolier} tags on either side of the text. Of course, you use the []'s and not the {}'s. |
