Hmm... Jan's looks very similar to
Spoiler
Maniac Mansion
, but i'm sure it isn't. Trying to think of other Lucasarts games that looked similar, but coming up blank.

Mine are from

Agony
for the Amiga (the only version made).

Don't have any others lined up yet.

It's like half-bikini-armor. I don't know, maybe someone thought it was more "realistic" or something.
To be fair, there is non-stupid female armor in this game, which I generally ended up using. :P

The more mods you plug in, the lesser armor they got :mrgreen:

I like the graphics, but don't know the game.

You're pretty close. It's

.

As for the female armour discussion, I think all the guys here would agree that the less / fewer the better :mrgreen: . On a more serious note, the image is not exactly clear and I can't see it properly, but maybe it has something to do with the Amazons - legends say that they used to cut off one of their breasts in order to be able to use the bow better. Damn shame if you asked me :mrgreen: .

Don't know any other of the games here, as usually.

^That looks like some mash-up between

and

Pac-man
. Am I close?

I knew most of the Sci-Fi/fantasy games on here, though essentially none of Jan or Sauman's. Actually I was going to post
Spoiler
Space Crusade
, but Ammena got there before me.

I really like the look of Sophia's game (no, not for the bikinis... :roll: ) but I don't know it.

Here is one from me. A game that I really enjoyed, with one of the best magic systems (up there with DM on that score, IMHO).

That's correct.

And this - I hope that this causes some head-scratching, but it's actually quite simple and well-known:

I agree with Jan on the guess for Saumun's latest offering :). Wouldn't have got Jan's but I'm only really familiar with the third offering in that series which looks nothing like that one ;).
Here's one that you'll either know straight away or won't have a clue on ;).

I recognised Ameena's as chess, so I'm going to count that as partially correct.

@Jan - don't know. Kim Jong-il simulator?

EDIT: What the heck is wrong with the damn Edit option? Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. I'm sorry for all the double-posting but I don't seem to be able to edit some of my older posts when I get back to them. I don't think I used to have these problems in the past.

As for yours, I am going to make an educated guess and say

Correct :)

@Sauman - I was going to guess one of the

No idea there. I remember that a ship in one Tintin episode was named Karaboudjan, but I guess this doesn't have anything to do with it, does it?
