Friday picture quiz - Themed
Friday picture quiz - Themed
It's Friday! This time it's a mix of mainly old with a couple of new games in there, all with a common theme. As there is a theme, Spectrum Quiz Regulation 432501.5b* will not be observed. Can you guess the theme?
3 guesses each to begin with.
*The regulation that states, for reasons not fully understood, every Spectrum Quiz must contain an example of the game "Raid over Moscow". FAO any Russian colleagues, this is just a quirk of nature and not a political statement!

Celestial objects, stars, suns, moons and all that caboodle
Re: Friday picture quiz - Themed
All correct, Mat - Rebelstar is actually #11 but you can have it
I should point out that I lied - I did observe standard quiz regulations so there is one exception. I'd better say in case anyone's scratching their head over it, I thought it would have been spotted instantly!
Yep that's the theme.Celestial objects, stars, suns, moons and all that caboodle

Re: Friday picture quiz - Themed
Yep! (And there was Mat straining at the leash for that one)
For info, 1, 3 and 22 are post commercial era, the rest are classic.
Re: Friday picture quiz - Themed
15 is crossed out, but no-one seems to have named it..??
Re: Friday picture quiz - Themed
It's Raid over Moscow, Mat alluded to it.
15 doesn't count, my fault, I put it in to meet accredited Spectrum quiz regulations but lied that RoM wasn't there, in the expectation that someone would have guessed it instantly. No-one guessed it and it didn't seem fair.
Sorry! I'm tired.
