As a reaction to the "Favourite one liners" thread - mostly because I've exhausted the one liners I know - I've decided to start this "Guess the game" thread.
One gives a famous / favourite quote from a game and the others guess the game. Please, hide your answers in spoilers so that you don't spoil it for those that come later. Google is not allowed .
So, I'll start with something very easy :
"You are likely to be eaten by a grue."

Ooooh... nice thread!
This will expose my lack of gaming knowledge no end (especially modern ones).
So i'll be the first to embarrass myself by saying that although that sound vaguely familiar, i don't know it
“Grynix Ernum Quey Ki Skebow Rednim U Os Dey Wefna Enocarn Aquantana” - Anon
No idea. Maybe a game I didn't play, because I probably would have remembered that line. The only thing it reminds me of is the torture scene in Casino Royale. If this was the other thread I would guess that!
It opens quite an old turn-based strategy game, in big burning letters on black background, with PC Squeaker making noises reminding... errr.... reminding... noises .
I don't know anything about itching balls or arrows in the knees.

Wow, when you guys said you didn't know games from beyond the 90s you weren't joking That line became quite big on the Internet.
Every guard in the country had some stock phrases they would repeat. This was fine for forgettable lines like "Keep your hands to yourself" or whatnot, but it was very jarring for the very specific quote I gave. It was like every guard in the entire country got their job because of a knee-arrow. So it became a (heavily overused) meme.
I'll leave it for a bit in case anyone else knows it.
I can't think of any old turn based war games for Jan's...
But everyone must know this game: "We ignore your feeble threats." or, alternatively, "We laugh at your feeble threats." - I used to click so many times on this item that my finger was as red as a fire engine .

Jan correctly guessed my one. I've turned up too late to get the "Never pay more..." quote, which I instantly recognised . I don't recognise any of the current quotes.

Don't know Jan's latest either. A Weaver...I can't think of any game I played that involved a Weaver.
Since I can't guess any, I'll give one of my own. Here's a cheesy line from a 90s game: Here's a lockpick. It might come in handy if you - "the master of unlocking" - take it with you.
Fun fact - I sneaked a modified version of this line into the pbp DnD thread. Westian said something like this to Ameena (can't find it now because the thread is archived).

Didn't play those games, played a few like Sands of Time on those big 5 1/4 floppy's
This was such an excellent game even when you take into account various (a)historical inconsistencies and absurdities.
