[Graham Humphrey]

Viddi currently has a screenshot up which you can find here (http://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?p=590197#post590197).

[viddi]

...and the first hint is: it´s not an adventure game!

[TheCyberDruid]

Microcosm?

[viddi]

No.

A nice guess, though.

[Vairn]

Mega race? was that even released? hmm.

[viddi]

Nope.

So it´s neither an adventure game nor an action title and it came on floppy discs only.

[Graham Humphrey]

Roadkill? (Maybe the intro...?)

EDIT: Doh! Floppy disk only you said. Hmm, need to wake up...

[viddi]

Good morning, Sir Graham. ;)

So:

-no adventure
-no action
-no CD version

New hint:

It´s the title screen!

[viddi]

Anyone?

[killergorilla]

Whatever it is, it looks bad!

[john4p]

ran trainer: http://hol.abime.net/1198

Yes, it looks bad.

[killergorilla]

Oh of course, the massively obscure football game we've never heard of, let alone played :)

Awesome!

[s2325]

manager game, that was easy...

[john4p]

Oh of course, the massively obscure football game we've never heard of, let alone played :)I've never played it, either. But since "ran" was THE free German Bundesliga show in the nineties I recognized the font and color. Impossible to solve for non-Germans.

[TheCyberDruid]

Well... not all Germans could solve it either ;)

[john4p]

No, but the one to solve it had to be a German-speaker... :nervous

[viddi]

Well done. :D

[killergorilla]

Come on then, who's next?

[TheCyberDruid]

/me points at john4p
This dude :D

[viddi]

john4p! ;)

[john4p]

Okay:

http://i30.tinypic.com/20fz5m9.png

[TheCyberDruid]

Targhan ;)
Have another go john :)

[john4p]

Thanks (that was correct of course). Okay, off to the Hall of Light it is...

[john4p]

This beautiful wall belongs to...?

http://i32.tinypic.com/2s91zwk.png


sry bt dblpst

[s2325]

hurray, bricks

[viddi]

Navy Seals

[john4p]

WTH? :confused

That's correct! :great

[viddi]

LOL!

Come on, another try, john4p. :lol

[TheCyberDruid]

WTH? :confused

That's correct! :great

:lol Nice one viddi :D
No worries john, I'm quite sure your next try will last a bit longer ;)

[john4p]

Well, longer than 1 minute isn't hard... ;)

Here is the new cutout:

http://i32.tinypic.com/34qlgzo.png

[killergorilla]

Alien Breed: Tower Assault?

[john4p]

NO!

Finally... ;)

[s2325]

Watchtower?

[john4p]

No.

Hint: there is no tower in the title. ;)

[Galahad/FLT]

Miami Chase.... have another go if you like ;)

[john4p]

That's correct!

Since 4 is my lucky number I'll have one last try:

http://i29.tinypic.com/kdnzg9.png

[s2325]

Leander?

[john4p]

No.

Since this is a new page here's the cutout again:

http://i29.tinypic.com/kdnzg9.png

[Graham Humphrey]

Assassin?

[john4p]

Nope, sorry.

[rkauer]

OnEscapee?

[Graham Humphrey]

Switchblade 2?

[john4p]

Both wrong. Here is now a 70x70-cutout:

http://i28.tinypic.com/ng2eza.png

[s2325]

is it glitch or orange object?

[john4p]

I'm pretty sure it's an object (only played the game once or twice 17 years ago so I'm not 100% sure).

Took the cutout directly from a HOL "double barrel"-screenshot (just like with the 3 games before).

[Muzkat]

Dragon Breed?

[john4p]

No, it's not Dragon Breed.

[john4p]

Here's a 90x70-cutout:

http://i28.tinypic.com/7319w1.png

[Galahad/FLT]

Dynasty Wars... I knew it was Tiertex type graphics.

[john4p]

Correct:

http://i29.tinypic.com/e62ath.png

It's Galahad's turn.

[Galahad/FLT]

... it really is!

[Steve]

Batman?

[s2325]

it's similar to city from Lotus III

[Galahad/FLT]

Both of you, take yourselves to the "i've got it wrong" room.

No

[mailman]

Damage?

[lilalurl]

Batman the movie?

[Galahad/FLT]

Mailman and Lilalurl... theres enough space for you both to fit in the NO room with S2325 and Steve.

Enjoy your stay there, peanuts are not complimentary, you need to pay for them.

[humble worm]

hudson hawk?

[Galahad/FLT]

hudson hawk?

Its getting seriously crowded in the NO room right now, going to have to build an extention to it at this rate.

[viddi]

RoboCop 2

I free you guys from the NO room. ;)

[Galahad/FLT]

RoboCop 2

[Galahad/FLT]

[viddi]

Too bad, Galahad.

[s2325]

next:

[Graham Humphrey]

Elf?

...yes, I'd like to book the room for two nights, please...

[Galahad/FLT]

Elf?

...yes, I'd like to book the room for two nights, please...

Jammy git... looks like you've escaped the NO room.... by satans claws you'll go back there some day!

[TheCyberDruid]

/clever dick mode on
He didn't say which Elf...
/clever dick mode off
;) :D

[Graham Humphrey]

TCD: Shhhhh ;)

No way did I get that one right! :lol

[Vairn]

[Eclipse]

Lotus?

[Vairn]

Nope, Time for a clue I guess, cryptic haha.

I helped with this, in a subtle way..

if people haven't guessed it later, I will give another clue.

[TheCyberDruid]

No need for more hints : Might and Magic II: Gates to Another World ;)

[Vairn]

[viddi]

lilalurl is right! :great

[s2325]

hello?

[lilalurl]

Could we try to keep the main section of the board as clean as possible, reserving this kind of above picture (not really necessary, nor really funny) for OT?
While I don't mind one or two not necessary pictures from time to time (when appropriate for fun) I am not really enthusiast about threads being flooded by Captain Obvious etc...

Thank you.

Now, have fun. ;)

[s2325]

ok, pretty guy is gone
Gunshoot?

[lilalurl]

No

[NPI]

Hotel Detective

[lilalurl]

NPI is correct.

[NPI]

[NPI]

correct. I left too many clues I guess...

[s2325]

next:

[s2325]

year is 1990

[s2325]

category is puzzle

[lilalurl]

The last hint made things too easy, you should have at least hinted: 'It's not a racing game' before.

Klax (http://hol.abime.net/2592/screenshot)

[s2325]

correct

[lilalurl]

:)

[s2325]

King of Chicago?

[lilalurl]

Sorry, no.

A bit of a hint: has no whdinstall

[lilalurl]

Bigger screenshot.

The game is ECS/OCS.

And it's not a smoking game ;) (whatever that would mean)

[lilalurl]

Year of the first release is 1990.

[TheCyberDruid]

Sliding

[lilalurl]

Correct (the category was Puzzle, guess where I got inspiration from ;))

[TheCyberDruid]

Hehe ;)
Here's the next one :

[Graham Humphrey]

Black Viper?

[TheCyberDruid]

Nope, sorry.

[viddi]

Future Wars: Time Travellers?

[TheCyberDruid]

Not that one either, sorry.

[Graham Humphrey]

Body Blows Galactic?

[TheCyberDruid]

Sorry, but no.

[john4p]

Since you often see a destroyed castle in Konami's vampire whipping series after beating Dracula I say:

Castlevania

[TheCyberDruid]

Nice guess john, but it's not Castlevania either ;)

[skateblind]

Defender of the Crown?

[TheCyberDruid]

Sorry skateblind, it's not DotC.

[YoJoe!]

Awesome?

[TheCyberDruid]

No, sorry.

[skateblind]

Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis?

[TheCyberDruid]

Sorry, but no. It's not an adventure ;)

[largolgd]

Golden Axe ?

[TheCyberDruid]

Nope, sorry. Somewhat useful hint tomorrow morning ;)

[TheCyberDruid]

Oops, forgot the hint this morning ;)
Well, now you get three :
Hardware is ECS/OCS, it has no cheatcode and it has a SPS release.

[gimbal]

well, that has me stumped. I could have sworn it was Fate of Atlantis.

Lord of the Realms?

[TheCyberDruid]

Nope, sorry.

[john4p]

Jeanne d' Arc?

[TheCyberDruid]

Sorry, not that one either. Two not really bad guesses...

[viddi]

Kingdoms Of Germany

[TheCyberDruid]

Hehe, of course you are right viddi ;)

[viddi]

Great!

Did you know that Starbyte used a picture of Château de Saumur for the box art of Kingdoms of Germany?

-> http://hol.abime.net/3984/boxscan

:nuts



Next one:

[TheCyberDruid]

Not really German, ain't it? :D
Bloodwych?

[viddi]

...but it looks nice. :lol


BTW:
Nope. :D

[Graham Humphrey]

I'm guessing that saying Dungeon Master would be too predictable ;)

[viddi]

Indeed. ;)

But I tell you something: It´s not an RPG!

[Muzkat]

Manhunter: New York?

[viddi]

Sorry, no.

[john4p]

Is the cutout taken from a HOL "double barrel"-screenshot?

[largolgd]

it looks like the space at the end of the tunnel. Is it Wing Commander ?

[john4p]

But there's water at the bottom - it has to be a canalisation.

[DDNI]

is it Zombi?

[viddi]

Is the cutout taken from a HOL "double barrel"-screenshot?

No!

But there's water at the bottom - it has to be a canalisation.

Right. :agree

is it Zombi?

it looks like the space at the end of the tunnel. Is it Wing Commander ?

Nope.

[skateblind]

Is it a game set in Germany? Is it about Germany? Is it in German? :mad

[TheCyberDruid]

Is it a game set in Germany? Is it about Germany? Is it in German? :mad

:lol :p

[viddi]

Is it a game set in Germany? Is it about Germany? Is it in German? :mad

Nope, not this time. :lol

It´s an international title, which originally came from Japan.

[skateblind]

Nope, not this time. :lol

It´s an international title, which originally came from Japan.


Ok, but be warned, I am watching you. :blased :D

[viddi]

Okay skateblind, a hint just for you: ;)

The name consists of two words and the first one is also part of a Psygnosis game title!

[TheCyberDruid]

Beast Busters ;)
Oh and skatey can have my go :D

[viddi]

Oh and skatey can have my go :D

That brings the list of games down to 129 or so.

[TheCyberDruid]

[john4p]

@TCD: Just went through that 129-games list on HOL and really narrowed my selection to StS1 and a strategy-title...

[skateblind]

Simon The Sorcerer II?
