Name the Game

Hmm... interesting. I feel that I should know this but can't quite place it. As a guess purely because I think the graphical style was similar I'm going to say Treasure Island - but I don't think that's what it is.

Nope not Treasure Island.

EDIT: Here's another screenshot to help move things along.

If you can make out the blurred bits, you could probably find out the name of the game easily.

It's Doctor What, an unlicensed Doctor Who game for the Speccy.

Danvzare · Fri 08/04/2016 13:17:55

And you're right! Your turn.

How did you know? Did you manage to decipher one of those blurred out texts, or have you actually played the game?

CaptainD · Fri 08/04/2016 13:19:18

Which Doctor is it supposed to be? Looks a bit like Sylvester McCoy to me.

I happened to stumble upon the game on Mobygames one time

There's meant to be four of them in the game according to Moby.

Anyway, time for me to put up a new screenie, I guess.

Wiz Kid?

Amayirot Akago · Fri 08/04/2016 17:07:25

Hahaha, no.

GarageGothic · Fri 08/04/2016 18:13:40

It was the Yin-Yang pieces that I remembered from Wizkid, looking it up on Moby I see it looked quite different.

Amayirot Akago · Sat 09/04/2016 11:59:22

*Quite* different indeed

Since this is a fairly obscure one it's only fair if I give a hint: this is an edutainment title of sorts. Also, you won't find it on Moby.

Wrecked

Amayirot Akago · Sun 10/04/2016 19:25:01

That is the one, good job

Freaky weird-ass game, that.

Here is the next one:

The Liagme Post?

-_-

Kumpel · Sun 10/04/2016 21:47:03

nope

Gribbler · Mon 11/04/2016 22:42:02

The Prague Post

Amayirot Akago · Mon 11/04/2016 22:58:18

I had a sneak suspicion after remembering a review I once read, and after some research I've confirmed it's In Memoriam, AKA Missing.

Kumpel · Tue 12/04/2016 09:39:16

That's the one! A very atmospheric and immersive adventure experience I had with this one since you get mails to your real email account from some game server to continue that psychopaths gruesome game, you had to investigate faked websites and stuff like that. Nowaydays the risk is extremely high to get spoilered while googling some clues. No idea if the whole game still works.

Once again your turn, Mr. Akago!
