QUIZ: Scrambled AGs
I printed one up, cut up the pieces and am trying to fit them together. It’s surprisingly difficult.
Alternatively, you could use an image editing program and the rectangle selection tool to copy and paste it back together.
I deliberately used rectangles so this would be an option when people got desperate.
If only somebody would make an adventure game that requires learning programming to finish it. I could kill two birds with one stone then…
There are a few!
Lists and Lists is a free text adventure that teaches you Scheme (it’s a language similar to Lisp) - probably this one’s better suited to someone who already knows how to program and wants a taste of a new language, but maybe that’s just me:

else Heart.Break() is a more recent open world adventure in which you can learn a BASIC-like language, start by programming computers in the game and end up reprogramming the world:

There have been a number of interesting games based around programming lately - TIS-100 and Human Resource Machine spring to mind - though they’re more puzzle games rather than adventures, and focus on the fiddly lower-level stuff. Human Resource Machine is the more beginner-friendly of the two.
Of course if you turn the problem around and become obsessed with making adventure games rather than playing them, you’ll be a programmer before you know it!

Tried that for one. Google still didn’t recognize it.
Not going to bother with the rest. I like jigsaw puzzles but there’s no need to overdo it, imo.

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
O.T
so Basitch you think are man enough to wear such dress, eh?

And Quadrilateral Cowboy just around the corner

Thanks for the recommendations. I might give else Heart.Break() a try since its available on GOG.com for Linux.

Not me personally, but that’s Ladybeard, one of the singers in the band LadyBaby.

I find the combination of cross-dressing, heavy metal and J-Pop to be utterly hilarious. I don’t smile very often, but those videos certainly do the trick…

I’ve got a program that would do that but I think it would probably be just as easy to use Becky’s method which seems fun ...maybe!

You’re right! What a hoot, and they look like they’re having fun doing it!

On the one hand, their mix works, on the other hand… O_o WTF?

If the remaining 2 pictures aren’t guessed by 2PM UTC Friday, I will post second, easier shots for them then.
The competition is getting fierce at the top and eddyc snagged shot #20 and the lead for now, leaving only one left that hasn’t been guessed…
The only way this quiz could be better is if you could actually play those jigsaws.
