Aliens. Not the good one, the "US version". Yep, Aliens US. You can see the screen on this map: https://maps.speccy.cz/map.php?id=Aliens2 The door looks different in the film though: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0TrnJ0Wucfk Always thought it was a nice touch the way the gun turret move...

Ok here's a clue, and a screenie will follow shortly.

This was not a well-regarded game, unlike the film it is based on.

And an in game screenshot:

It's from a cut-scene rather than a gameplay screen. I can see what you mean about a periscope view but it is actually a large door.

No to the above.

No guesses? Ok here's more of the screen.

Ok try this one

Ok, lots of Speccy games feature crates, but where is this one from?

Looks like Flunky.

Edit: and so it is. Making dinner, be back with a new one shortly.

I'm starting to wonder if the rule should be scrapped? What do you think, folks?

No, its like any word-association type game, choose a different word each time. Otherwise we just get Starglider>Starquake>Star Wars which would be dull.
