Thank you for all these fun and games, TimovieMan.  I really enjoyed the challenge.

Congratulations to DarkEye for that amazing score, and to Chrissie for such an excellent second place!

It was certainly a fun quiz, Timovieman. Smile

Some games I’ve never heard of, like Timanfaya: Verschollen in den Feuerbergen. Sneaky! Don’t tell me you’ve played it. Great job finding it, eddy.

I’d expected to slap my forehead quite a few times when the names would be revealed, but actually I’ve done quite well. Only three I definitely should have recognized: Anacapri (for the simple reason that I won an identical pack of cards from the developers); Guild of Thieves (my gut feeling told me it was a text adventure I’d played); and Corruption (familiar screenshot but no gut feeling).

     

See you around, wolf. Nerissa

Fun quiz!

I knew I should’ve known 61.

Fun fact - Simon_ASA and me are the only ones that ever got any of the games at the second or above guess.

Congratulations DarkEye! & thanks to Lady Kestrel & eddyc for the fun challenge.  Thumbs Up

Thank you Tim for a very enjoyable quiz & the very nice results presentation. Heart

I could have kicked myself for not getting no 49 - it was driving me mad as it was so familiar!

I always like to see if I can track down the screenshots I missed but I couldn’t find one for Magnetic - not even by YTing so just wondered if one existed on the net or in this case you needed to have played the game?  Smile

Of course I didn’t. If my memory accountancy serves me right, I found that game and screenshot via adventure-archiv.com which is now defunct.
This quiz was something I had started years ago, then abandoned, and only recently found my collected screenshots (and accompanying spreadsheet) back again…

But not the only ones to have made guesses… Wink

You can find it on Mr. Bill’s Adventureland. Wink
