I almost posted the exact same screen shot of Body Blows I posted a few months ago, I must be getting forgetful. Anyway, here's one from the pre-ST/Amiga age

Crystal Castles!
Man I played a lot of that, but I was pretty bad at it. Getting the warp in the back corner on level 3 was a good break though

Yup... Only played it a handful of times myself (and was useless at it).

Yep, Money is right about mine - good guesses, everyone else
.
Okay, how about this one? This is about the only screenshot I can find for this game that doesn't make it immediately obvious to anyone already familiar with it
.
Edit - Oops, forgot the thread had gone over to another page when I posted this reply...wow, lots of posts since I was on here yesterday :O. But I don't recognise any of the latest pics anyway, lol.

Don't recognise Ameena's.
I think the middle one of Jan's is
Fatal Racing
, but don't know the other two.

That's right. Also known as

Sauman's last arcade one I think is Side Arms. I played loads of that back in the day. Lots of shooty goodness.

The first from Jan:
Kings Quest IV - The Perils Of Rosella
or one of the
Rosella/King quest
serie.

You're right with the series, but it is from no. VI, not IV (which still had the old CGA/EGA graphics).

Now clue about anyone - but again pleasured by Ameena's taste for beautiful graphics.
Here's a still missing classic, probably not too hard to guess:

I think that Saumun and Gambit must share a brain given the way they get each other's games so quickly!
Bit - that is
Magic Carpet
. Quite a good game.
As for Jan's, Saumum's and Ameena's...I don't know. Saumun's looks vaguely like a game I know, but not quite (and I won't guess, because I planned to use that later).

btw: Jan, did you know that there is a crash-car-mod made with the quake-engine? I was pretty surprised when sawing that one! You may search for Q3 rally

Bit's is
Magic Carpet 2
, whose predecessor has already been posted here previously
.
Here's another image from the same game as my previous pic, which should be an instant giveaway to anyone already familiar with it...

Don't know Ameena's.
The character in Jan's is
Cool Spot
, but the fact that it isn't 2D suggests a sequel (which i haven't played)..... so,
Cool Spot 2
maybe?

More or less. It's called
"Spot Goes To Hollywood"
.
Right, Mr. Clever, could you give us a list of games that you don't know, so that our job of catching you off-guard would be easier?

I didn't know quite a few of those, but I've got these!
Saumun's is
Alien Syndrome
and Ameena's is
Rayman
.
Here's one from me:

@Jan... I'd certainly struggle on games after the PS2 era, unless it was something obviously very well known.
Sophia got mine...
Alien Syndrome
.
I don't know hers.

Ooops, then the 1st one slipped somehow through for me
Still have no idea about yours, but at least those hands are really 'disneyish'. Curious how it turns out.

Don't know Jan's new one. There is a swastika (that appears to be back to front) on the character at the top, but i'm struggling to think of a game as old as that featuring nazis.

I knew Ameena's from the second picture, but I don't know the others. Saumun's looks like an RTS game set in space. I can't think of any of them.
No idea of Jan's.
