Guess That Game!!!
Here's a new game where I challenge forum members to guess games based on various obscure images, themes, or gameplay videos. A single member will post something that allows other people to guess what game it is from, and when somebody guesses correctly, they can choose the next game and provide a screenshot or whatever, or they can just pass it off to the next person who wants to participate.
Time to put your investigative skills to the test.
The Rules (so far):
- A host selects a game for people to guess by posting music, an image or gameplay from a game (One game host at a time).
- Clues must be given over an undetermined amount of time until somebody actually gets an answer. The quality & frequency of clues and the amount of clues given must be reasonable.
- People can call or request for clues or a pass once people are stumped for too long. If the pass is generally agreed upon, a new person can volunteer to be host, thus providing a screenshot or whatever so that other people can guess.
- You can technically request a clue at any time, but you should give people reasonable time to guess first, and it's also expected for the host to also give people a reasonable amount of time as well. Don't try to push the game quicker than it needs to go.
- If a clue is not given by a member who clearly has abandoned the game, somebody else can call for a pass without the host being aware of it. Technically, if the host abandons it, it's their own fault the game proceeded without them.
- Don't try to force the game to progress or continue faster than it should. Don't push a host to pass when he's not ready. If he still has clues to give, let him give more clues. However, a host should not as well try to force people to participate if they've clearly given up. Therefore, let the game naturally move on when it's ready to.
- Don't be overly cryptic with your clues and try to make the game fun and fair as possible. It's about fun, not about psychologically manipulating people on some crazy wild goose chase or mind game scheme that you know will lead nobody anywhere.
- A winner can certainly pass the responsibility of host to somebody else if he/she can't think of anything or have been host too many times.
I'll start the game here:
