Re: Guess the game
Ooh, Jan's looks reminiscent of , though I suspect it might just be a similar game and not actually that one, as some bits don't look exactly like I remember...

As for your game, I'm completely lost. These two images do not even seem to come from the same game! It's like combining the Lord of the Rings and the Star Wars...

Now this one might seem a bit strange, but it's quite famous...

Re: Guess the game
Don't know Jan's latest.
The two screens from mine do indeed look as if they're from different games! Nevertheless... They're not.
The second screenshot is the main gameplay. The first is between levels.
Released in the late 80s on 8-bit machines first, then 16-bit.

Re: Guess the game
No... Not .
I was thinking along the same lines at first for Jan's, but the only ones i could think of were (but i think the wire frames were green in that), and an old game for the BBC micro that was definitely not famous (i can't remember it's name anyway).... so i'm stuck! That blue surround looks strangely familiar though.

I really don't know yours. Looks very interesting - this seems to be some kind of a logical / magical game, I suppose.
Hell, I still haven't guessed a single game here. This really is appalling.
Well, what do you make out of this:

Re: Guess the game
Bahh, well, I still don't know any of these, lol. I sort of feel like I should know Jan's just from the art style but that's probably because I've played a bunch of similar games in the past

Okay, I finally got round to sorting out an image myself, lol...
