Ancient Art of War?

Correct

Never played it myself, but EvryWare games had a very recognizable style

This shot features one of the most annoying enemies encountered in any game ever.

Venus the Flytrap?

Chrille · Sun 25/02/2018 20:33:16

Nope!

Atavismus · Sun 25/02/2018 20:51:19

Could it be "Menace"?

Chrille · Sun 25/02/2018 20:57:16

Nope!

It is a game from the late eighties though. There was one version of it that was re-released in the late 00's (or around that time, I think)

Atavismus · Sun 25/02/2018 21:10:33

Mmmm Menace has the same ennemies.
Could it be "Life Force: Salamander" then?
It's a shmup right?

Chrille · Sun 25/02/2018 21:28:11

I guess it does look like a generic shooter enemy

It's not a shmup, but you can shoot!

One of those ECCO the dolphin games?

Chrille · Mon 26/02/2018 07:32:51

Nope, this next screenshot might give it away though:

Ah okay, Nebulus.

Chrille · Mon 26/02/2018 16:24:03

Bingo!

The tower gave it away immediately!

Okay here's one with a connection to the last game...

Too obvious huh?

Well, Amiga

(I was sure I knew those ennemies, I should have found Nebulus! ^^)

O Captain! My Captain! Go on please, it's late, I have no idea and I won't be able to post tomorrow.

CaptainD · Thu 01/03/2018 12:43:56

Oops forgot I hadn't replied...

Anyone who wants can step in here, I don't have anything in mind atm.

Math Quest?
(Also if I'm right, then I will be utterly amazed, since I made that name up based on the fact that this looks like someone crossed King's Quest and a Math game together.)

Ben X · Fri 02/03/2018 17:20:48

Ha, nice try, but no. Here's another pic:

Hint: I am being a little bit sneaky with my choice of game.

And just in case anyone isn't sure, I think it's fair play to search for any text that shows up in screenshots for this thread. If people disagree, I am certainly allowing it for this round, due to aforementioned sneakiness likely making it too difficult otherwise!
