Loading letters quiz

Post by Rorthron »

Did someone say "quiz"?

Below are 26 letters taken from loading screens. Each is part of a game title logo. Name the games.

Important note! Special anti-MatGubbins ;) countermeasures are in place to stop one person getting all the clues. So no more than three correct guesses per person. If any of your guesses are incorrect, you get them back, but if they are correct, they count towards your limit of three.

(If there are any clues left tomorrow, the limit on guesses will be lifted then.)

Good luck!

If you can't see the images, try a different browser. I find Edge works fine with the images.

EDIT: here is an alternative source for the image above. Hopefully at least one of these will work:

I cannot see them in fact. Even the images you posted on the art copied from elswhere fail to pop up. I am using Vivaldi with Windows 10 home.

Looking at another window with Edge: H = Chuckie Egg, N = Spellbound, O = Raid Over Moscow.

I think Imgur requires registration. Did the postimg.org image not work above?

Imgur doesn't require registration, but yes the Postimage link works ok. I don't like the way we seem to be going back to the bad old days of the late 90's and websites only working for 'X' browser or 'Y' browser.

Anyway, kewl quiz.

Yes, the last few years have felt like a huge step backward on that point.
