Name the Game

Rockford ?
If I'm right, you should pick a new one Gurok.

Gurok · Fri 27/02/2015 19:24:40

You're right, but also...

SCREW YOU ALL! You want an obscure game? I'll give you one:

Screw you, thread killer!

Elite?

Elite?

I thought about it too, but Gurok said "obscure", so maybe a (shareware) clone of Elite?
(Btw, Elite don't have such gfx colors imo/in my rememberings)
Maybe we'll need a second screenie or an hint...

Return to Fractalis.

(No I don't really think it's that. But I wanted to guess it anyway!

)

Gurok · Sat 28/02/2015 10:10:20

Not Elite, not Return to Fractalis. A hint? It's about killer ants from outer space. Here's another screenshot:

I've tried to make sure all of these are ungoogleable

Atavismus · Sat 28/02/2015 10:20:49

Thx for those hints.
Starflight?
But it's a EA game... So not so obscure...

(Btw, about "ungoogleable", how wanna win by cheating?!

)

Gurok · Sat 28/02/2015 10:59:21

It's not Starflight and not an EA game.

Aliants: The Desperate Battle for Earth
?
(last try for me

)

Gurok · Sat 28/02/2015 11:18:08

Correct! That's twice in a row, Atavismus. It has to be your turn now

Also, I might add, this game looked a lot better on platforms other than DOS.

Atavismus · Sat 28/02/2015 12:08:04

Thx Gurok, that was challenging, I liked the hunt.

Ok, here is an easy one I guess :

(It's googleable but who cares, we are between gentlemen )

Gribbler · Sun 01/03/2015 10:23:37

Ween the Prophecy. It has been posted before

Atavismus · Sun 01/03/2015 11:22:39

I guessed it was already posted... (I should have use the forum search engine)
I wanted something not hard, not Amiga exclusive.
Well, nevermind, your turn Gribbler.

I saw the pic, thought "Dark Souls", googled "Dark Souls like" and found "Lords of the Fallen", is it cheating?! :O

Not at all! It's called deduction.

Go ahead with the next game!

Atavismus · Mon 02/03/2015 21:22:56

Here is an anti google image

(Two screenshots in one: I thought google would be smarter ^^)

Atavismus · Fri 13/03/2015 02:09:07

No one?
Bah, just browse Amiga adventure games, you'll find it and discover some nice gems.

actualwiazrd · Fri 13/03/2015 10:03:51

Sex Vixens from Space?

...That may not be it, but I definitely found some...er... "gems."
