Sad only one left, surely someone else can pick up the mantel?
I'm not sure anyone would be willing / crazy enough to manage almost 30 Forums to continue this project. But I can imagine some of the more active communities posting some quizzes of their own!
The last quiz will be posted on the 1st of January - happy holidays everyone! ^_^
@Mr_Horizon 30 forums? You mad man, wish I was following from the first one.
We can but hope someone does something similar in the future
Also, Thank you so much for doing them
Looking forward to the final quiz #100. Will it be a best-of? Will it be extra tough? Don't know, but I'll join for the occasion with a bit of knowledge and a lot of searching the internet.
It's really amazing that you managed to keep this going and growing for ten years, @Mr_Horizon ! Thank you!
@CaleBoi25 It's a monthly quiz that @Mr_Horizon has been doing for a while over a number of forums and it's good fun. Essentially guess the games from the (usually themed) screenshots. Anyone is free to participate, although I'm embarrassed to say I usually don't - mainly because I normally read the forum in my lunch break & skim through the pictures and think "I'll have a proper look later" and totally forget!
Only problem is that Mr_Horizon is 'retiring' soon and the next quiz in January is the final one 😞
In this round you have to recognise the game that the pictured musicians appear in - be it a guitar-wielding protagonist, a cool sci-fi DJ or the medieval band of a fantasy RPG.
There was some speculation about a special theme for the last round, but in the end I didn't follow through with any of these ideas - so no "Game Over" screens, no defeated player characters (I don't want to end with a corpse quiz ) and no "best of" either.
Nevertheless, there is something special about this round, as you can win up to five (!) bonus points. You can see the first four in the entry form, but the fifth one is different:
If this forum manages to surpass its highest number of participants, every player from here gets a bonus point.
For the NintendoLife forum this number is: NINE (October 2022)
For all this effort, there is also something to win this time:
1x Neo Geo Mini from the admins of the Maniac Forum
1x 50€ Mystery Box from "www.retroplace.com - Your marketplace for video games & consoles"
1x ATARI: Art and Design of Video Games. The translator Stephan Freundorfer is publishing the "Prince of Persia" diaries together with the game designer Jordan Mechner in April this year.
Prizes will be raffled among the top 50, legal recourse is excluded.
We are in the last round, fifty players are already participating... who is still missing?
Are you waiting for a few clues so that you can join in? Then I better not keep you waiting any longer:
1) Game #4 has a female main character, the screenshot shows the sound menu. 2) Picture number 6 shows the tutorial of a very wacky Japanese music game (Sony exclusive). 3) In the intro of the home computer game #19 from the late 80s, this guy plays in a full-screen band. 4) The #8 is a new-ish platformer in which you help a young guitarist with his self-discovery.
...don't forget there's prizes this time:
1x Neo Geo Mini
1x 50€ Mystery Box from www.retroplace.com
1x ATARI: Art and Design of Video Games
This is the very last clue post, in the very last round... so now it's definitely time to join, or are you really gonna miss this?? Seventy-five people had enough FOMO to already submit their entries - you do however still have time until next WEDNESDAY.
Here we go:
1) Game 20 is from a German developer whose last title was a big disappointment. 2) Number 11 is a racing game from the 90s. 3) In picture 14, you are controlling a well-known superhero. 4) Title 16 is an RPG based on D&D.
Besides the FOUR bonus points from the additional questions, don't forget the "bonus point for all": If this forum manages to surpass its highest number of participants, every player from here gets a bonus point.
I of course know the first one but I think I would have got #4 wrong if it weren't for the clues, which would have been embarrassing for team Nintendo Life!
