New forum game -- Spectrum graphics in the real world?

[R-Tape]

I'm going to have to go shopping so I can post a real pic of this.

That's plainly Cookie.

Hurrah! I never get these things.

[R-Tape]

Yep. Now you'll have to redecorate your house or buy a llama to take a turn.

The Young Ones?

[5MinuteRetro]

Skool Daze? I mean pretty sure it’s not that but I have nothing else…

[R-Tape]

Skool Daze?

And I thought I went to a rough comprehensive.

[sn3j]

?

LOL yeah, that's what I was thinking of with this.



The squareness also reminds me of Deactivators.

[Oloturia]

Sorry, can I post one?

[R-Tape]

I'd go for it - here's part of the OP. No turns and see how it goes:

(I'm not sure this game will work with 'turns', as there's no reason to assume the guesser will have another image in mind, and still less ready to go... so perhaps just a gentlefolks' agreement to not deluge the thread with too many at once? Or, you know, it could just die on its arse. )

[Oloturia]

OK, this is an IKEA pillow that I bought some time ago.

[5MinuteRetro]

Obviously could be any of many but immediately made me think of Hungry Horace…

[Oloturia]

Yeah, many, but there is a game whose baddies are very similar to those on the pillow.

[GreenCard]

OK, this is an IKEA pillow that I bought some time ago.

Reminds me of Skull.

Looks a bit like Gulpman to me

[Oloturia]

Looks a bit like Gulpman to me

yes, that was my idea!

[Juan F. Ramirez]

As there's no turns, here's my attempt: a pic I made yesterday, I don't know what the f*** is this bowed pipe or what is it for, but it strongly reminds me of certain game...

[Oloturia]

Ain't sure about that, I think are vent pipes for letting air out from drains and other kind of plumbing like sewers that can produce gas.

[R-Tape]

Frostbyte?

[Juan F. Ramirez]

Yesss! That's it!

[R-Tape]

Yesss! That's it!

You should campaign to have a Blue Plaque installed there.

[Morkin]

Here's a pic I took of a painting I saw hanging in a hotel while I was staying there on holiday:



It immediately reminded me of a Speccy game - any guesses as to which one?

Clue: It's not a massively well-known game. But one of its creators is a very well-known 80s game author.

[bluespikey]

Lawks, did you ask to be moved rooms?

[deanysoft]

it's the sort of random art you get in a Travelodge. It reminds me of Roller Coaster.
