Friday Quiz: SCRambled 2

Post by GreenCard »

That's right, folks - I'm back to scramble some pixels. And minds. I'm going to scramble your minds.

This Friday. Around 0900 hours, here time.

Can you handle the scramble?

I could, but then Our Lovely Government told me that I couldn't, because all the hens are in lockdown from the Bird Coof and I can't get any eggs.

Still, it'd make Chuckie Egg a lot easier to play, albeit a bit pointless.

It's Friday! Wooooohooooooooo! :D

Here are 20 in-game screenshots, all "scrambled" using the Paintbox tool in BASin. Can you identify which games they're from?

Rules for this quiz: Only one answer per post. No consecutive posts from the same user (mine don't count). Correct answers are worth 1 point each, or 0.5 points each after clues are given. If clues are given, rules no longer apply (except for the points rule, obviously). Hands must be held very tightly very tightly.

Have fun, guys and gals! :)

These can get quite annoying, in the way they're scrambled. What is it we're seeing, the INK colour or the PAPER colour, or a mixture of both?

I thought 7 was Costa Capers, because I was sure I'd seen that huge bike-type shape somewhere at the start of the game. Then I looked at the real screenshot on SC, and the colours of the status bar didn't match. But if we're only seeing the INK colour, then the colours DO match...

7 is Costa Capers!

Sir Clive on a bike, that was a trial. Or, maybe, literally, Ted Blewett on a bike.
