Guess That Game!

[Edmond Dantes]

So here's how it works: Post gives a description and you have to identify the game (or series) it matches.

So, let's get the ball rolling:

#1 - Killed a zombie got a torch, killed a demon got a dagger, killed a ghoul and got the holy shield and now I'm running around in my underwear about to die.

#2 - Damn that flying jellyfish, I'm only trying to swim the floating river to get an orb of a DNA helix creature, QUIT GRABBING ME!

#3 - Sometimes I wonder how old arcade stars survive without me and my trusty slingshot... tho sometimes they don't survive anyway because I'm the one killing them.

(All the games I named are from either the 8- or 16-Bit era)

If you want to add your own games for people to guess, a few guidelines:

First, don't be too clinical. Make the description whimsical but accurate. "Its a game where a plumber grows big with mushrooms" isn't fun enough, but saying "a shroom addict crushes his enemies beneath his feet and sends his nemesis to a boiling death" is more fun.

Second, try not to use proper names since those are often dead giveaways.

That's all I've got for now. I'll be back later!

Tricky. #1 is Ghosts 'n Goblins, though...

[Scissors]

#2 - Ecco the Dolphin?

[Cornelius]

Is #3 a Bart Simpson game? I haven't played them, but that's all that comes to mind for slingshots.

#2 - Ecco the Dolphin?

I have no doubt that you are correct.


I will give 10,000 Meseta to the first person to correctly guess mine. An old man climbs a bunch of ladders while dodging falling octopus, eggs and other shit (sometimes literal shit) to reach a pretty young girl.

No, #3 is not a Simpsons game, but you're actually on the right track... the main character IS yellow.

(#1 and #2 have been guessed correctly--specifically #2 is Ecco the Tides of Time, but like I said having the correct franchise counts as well)

THE character suggests to me that its not toejam and/or earl...

I'm starting to think #3 is Pac-Man 2: The New Adventures.

RP2A03... That's sounding like a lot of Kong clones to think through... my knee jerk reaction was Imagic's Beauty and the Beast, but I don't recall falling octopi.
