Friday quiz!

Post by Rorthron »

OK, I know it's Thursday, but I thought I might take a stab at the Friday quiz tomorrow. If no-one objects, I’ll post one tomorrow at 9am BST (10am CET).

(Unless I forget, of course....)

You'd shot at dawn in that case, so you'd better set the alarm clock. SC Friday Quiz (TM) is a serious thing.

The joke's on him—he's given away the place and precise time of the crime, and even been so kind as to define the time zone.

They always make that one mistake inspector...

As promised….

The following image is a mashup of parts taken from the loading screens of 22 different games. Name them.

Image

To avoid confusion when describing parts of the image, I suggest we use “left” and “right” to refer to directions as you look at the screen. In other words, the left hand is magenta and the right hand white (not the other way round).
