2014 bump!
Almost 12 years... I suppose that the hope was someone would see it and think "ah I remember that ad for xxxxxx" or "I remember that ad from xxxxxx magazine" I remain optimistic! |

Could have been this? Either on the character dying or on a low score on the scores page? or: https://www.google.it/search?q=frank...e)%3B311%3B321 frankenstein the monster return for nintendo or something like that? Or gobliiins or ghouls and ghosts or ghosts and goblins... or perhaps a cemetary scene in one of the Elvira or Waxworks games? also to check: Ooze and Loom Last edited by Marcuz; 24 March 2014 at 01:38.

It wasn't an in game shot, it was ad artwork, possibly with some screenshots on it...
I has this magazine page on my wall for years over several houses and I can't for the life of me remember the game it was from. Non-Amiga mags I had around the time were CD-ROM User and and PC Format but I cant find it trawling through PDF back issues |

Probably between '92-'94, I've a sneaky suspicion I might have seen it in Computer and Video Games. |

what I love of this mystery filled thread is that hints too are mysterious

I'm now doubting myself and wondering whether it could have been at the end of my CPC days when I had my Sega Game Gear. Now even more vague... |

I'm thinking if this wasn't in CD-ROM User magazine it was around the same period, so I'm now thinking 1994...

Could it be The Art of Fighting 3?

Well.. I guess a script could be developed to extract out all ascii strings out of all amiga disk images. Then this collection of strings could be dropped into a database and searched. Does a database like this already exist? I wonder if the phrase in question could be found...

Could have been instead a snarky comment by some reviewer under a screenshot of the game in a magazine?
