Match that screen!
Getting back on track…
It has always puzzled me what that picture from fantastic Alone 2 should represent?
The captain showing you the way down into the ship’s hold?
Warning- People won’t have as much of a sense of humor about you putting an Alka Seltzer in your mouth then staggering into a restaurant while shouting “THE VIRUS HAS MUTATED!” as you’d hope they would.
Consider this: People say “Ewwww!!!” when they hear about a guy having a hairy bum or hairy back, yet every Teddy Bear ever made has had both a hairy bum AND a hairy back and nobody complains about them; In fact, people think Teddy Bears are adorable.
Or is it the captain pointing at the copyright info?

I understand my mistake about kaylee.
@ jbhypno: I think you misunderstand the purpose of this thread - you’re meant to match screens from adventure games, not other games and certainly not other media.
And yeah, Kaylee is super-cute!
I’ve always considered Final Fantasy 7 and 8 a type of adventure game. Lost of puzzles to solve even if there not the main element. Just my opinion. I understand my mistake about Kaylee. Some of the pictures looked like video.
I thought the scene from Dreamfall might remind someone of other twisty staircases, like the one in Black Mirror.
It did, but I couldn’t find a pic of the staircase in Black Mirror. I looked through pictures of both the 1st one and the 3rd, but couldn’t find the right angle, and I didn’t have it installed.
I play story-heavy games, watch animation, anime, B-movies, disaster movies, sci-fi movies and crime shows and try to write about it all on my blog: Snark, pedantry and random geekery
Here’s a bearded pirate captain already down below decks. It’s from Redjack: Revenge of the Brethren.
Match this one from Anacapri. It’s the one I meant to post when I did my double picture:

One green mermaid to match the lovely lady:
And a new one from Space Quest
The exterior reminds me of Sam & Max Hit the Road:

Looks like the characters are right out of “Black Belt” for the Sega Master System…
The truth can’t hurt you, it’s just like the dark: it scares you witless but in time you see things clear and stark. - Elvis Costello
Maybe this time I can be strong, but since I know who I am, I’m probably wrong. Maybe this time I can go far, but thinking about where I’ve been ain’t helping me start. - Michael Kiwanuka
or right out of street fighter for that matter
Well, it was difficult (for me) to match the Zork GI screenshot.
At first, I tried to find a room with invisible walls. Couldn’t find one. Then, a room with a bookcase in the middle and a screen/blind on the left, and a door to a bedroom on the right. I couldn’t find that either.
So I settled for bookcases in a strange location without standard walls, from Azada In Libro.
To be matched next: this scene from Darkness Within 2: The Dark Lineage.
I know it’s not underwater, but this The Last Express scene looks like it might be:
Now, something slightly different: when TWW2 was first announced, for a very short time there was this mysterious cover art (to which some assumed Sadwick is making a return) until it was changed with the different one.

That scene from The Last Express is gorgeous. And the screenshot from The Whispered World 2 certainly is mysterious. I think one from the Cave has some of the same sensibility—the atmosphere, the lamps, and the mountains in the background.
Here one for matching from Agatha Christie: And Then There Were None.
It’s a dead ringer for The Black Mirror’s kitchen:

Medieval clothes and huts? Check.
Lutes and beards? Check.
70s prog-rock hair? Check.

That reminds me of the toothy monster in Sam & Max: The Devil’s Playhouse.
