What! We get five hints TOTAL? And I already identified all five of them!
How am I supposed to beat Zobraks this way… 

You can send hint requests (5 requests) via PM for Day 5 until 6:00 pm today. If you repeat number from yesterday, you’ll get an even bigger hint for that game.

Hints for the still unguessed pics will be for free!

Just a few random things from the top of my head - the only game not guessed is The Adventures of Pinocchio The scene is actually a cutscene taken from the movie and included in game - played by Dawn French.

The casual game is Surface: Mystery of Another World - it’s just a random casual I’ve stumbled upon in the early stages of quiz making, and thought it would be impossible to guess interesting to include it. I see it got good reviews as well.

Apart from The Adventures of Pinocchio, some other games I’ve took pics from by myself are The Serrated Scalpel (3DO version) on 5, The Colour of Murder on 25, A Fork in the Tale on 40 or Toonstruck on 73.

Thanks again!

Fien 59

I’ll comment on the quiz later, but first things first.
Fien had 60 correct.

Sorry Fien! I knew there will be some errors I forgot to include The 11th Hour on your list of answers! Corrected! Anyone else’s numbers doesn’t match?

Great quiz indeed but very hard, there was no way I could have guessed some games if I haven’t played them (the screenshots of the games I didn’t guess were nowhere to be found )

Congratulations to all the winners (and myself )! It’s such a great and interesting thing how The First and Second place where a tie.

I’m quite happy with my 3rd place and how much I accomplished and guessed, since I’m not such a great FMV enthusiast. It’s quite an honor to get a score higher then some real FMV lovers in this quiz. I attribute that to my great searching skills (but unfortunately even I couldn’t find some screens that diego took by himself )

Now diego, where are those prizes (Oscars) and the after-party drinks you promised us ?
That was the mere reason I decided upon this crazy idea to join this difficult quiz.

Wednesday (20th) - Final day, Oscars, The Closing Ceremony and after-party!

Does anyone else see FMV pics spinning in circles around their heads ? 
Just kidding! 

Even if I’ve only played a few FMV’s so far, it’s been lots-o-fun searching, and I’m already planing of getting and playing some of them.

Edit: Yeah, Sweet D is right! you promissed a party!
