Name That Video Game
« on: Sep 23, 2011, 01:49:33 PM »
Pretty simple really.  Like all the other "Name That" games, one person post's a picture of a game from the past, present, or future and the first person to guess correctly gets to post the next picture.

So no interest in the game or was my pic too obscure?

Torin's passage. This was an al Lowe game - the same guy who did leisure suit Larry.

I'll get a pic up in a bit.

Guess that answers that question :).  You ever play that game Pants?  It was pretty good despite not being very popular.

I never played that one - I guessed it was a sierra game, and that it was a graphic adventure game from the 90s.  Only after adding in the search terms purple and cat did it pop up.

OK - my entry



Love this game and still play it today.

Wasteland.

As for Torin's passage, as you may have guessed by my avatar, I grew up on Sierra point and click games.  Torin's Passage was one of the last of their's IIRC.

Hmmm...  Seems that was entirely too easy.

As far as Sierra making that game - I guessed that mainly cause it looks like the other sierra game - that 80's Don Bluth / Bad Disney era animation.

Your turn.

Wasn't that easy.  I'd never played it before.  Well, here's my next one:

Raid over Moscow for the Commodore 64. Any other picture, and I would not have guessed it.

You got it!  I figured I'd go for the easier picure given how few people I've met that have heard of it.  There were some I came across which would have been evil.  For the record, I played it on the Atari 800.

Your turn.
