Guess the Game
- ttrrooppeerr 3y agoI am doing better than I want to admit... Taking 1 or 2 tries to guess all the current and past ones. What do I want to say with this? Well done, you have me hooked!
- rtpg 3y agoThis gets me thinking of a fun "PvP" version of this, where people make screenshots that have to (say) get something like a 10% correct rate or the like. The ultimate screenshot that gives away _just enough_ to where people who have the tiles burned in their mind will identify the game, but that isn't actually impossible.
- slmjkdbtl 3y agolove how they have themself guessthe.game as one of the entry (i won't say which one to aid you cheat!)
- zote 3y agoIt was so meta
- arno_app 3y agoI like this more than Wordle! Would love an account feature to have your progress cross devices
- CSMastermind 3y agoI really like the concept of this! The search seems like it could be improved though. I wanted my first guess to be Super Mario Bros. but it kept prompted me for Super Mario World II. And then even with "Super Mario Bros" typed in it recommended New Super Mario Bros. 2, followed by a list of games that were clearly poor matches. Like Puzzle & Dragons Z...
- jimmygrapes 3y agoI felt the same at first for the one for today (4/21), thinking "surely this is SMB 2" but then I remembered light guns and realized the suggestions eliminate ones that it can't be.
- rob74 3y agoThe only one I was able to guess so far was "The Secret of Monkey Island" (although I only know it as "Monkey Island I") - but that one I guessed from the first screenshot! Shows my age I guess... EDIT: Ok, in the meantime I also guessed Portal 2, GTA 3, Bioshock Infinite, and a few others. Now I'm hooked too :(
- neogodless 3y agoThere were a few I was pretty clear on. Then I got to Call of Duty and I knew the series, but 6 guesses later and I still didn't get the right one. (Haven't played any since the original!)
- shawabawa3 3y agoReally frustrating experience for one of the past ones, my first guess was "Borderlands" and it got a red cross. The correct answer was "Borderlands 2" - it should give an orange answer if you get the wrong game from a series
- JansjoFromIkea 3y agoThe Skate series one was arguably worse; 3 games that all came out within half a generation of each other.
- emsy 3y agoThe "Skip" button should be on a different location. Clicked it accidentialy because I wanted to change the pictures.
- alexghr 3y agoReally fun concept. I'd suggest changing the color of the "Submit" button because (at least on Firefox) to my eyes it looks like it's disabled. It took me 4 tries to get today's game. I remember playing it a lot as a kid on a clone of NES that was really popular in Eastern Europe at the time :) Aside: why are .game domains sooo expensive? I'd love to get one for a game I'm working on but I can't stomach paying £300/year to register the domain :/
- heckelson 3y agoI nailed Duck Hunt on the first try!
- nid 3y agoDuck Hunt was an easy win. Great game!
- iamthepieman 3y ago3 guesses and I never even owned the game or the system it was on. Some things are just cultural icons. Or sub-cultural icons I suppose.
- somedude895 3y agoGood fun! I created a subreddit called r/guessthegame a long time ago, but it never went anywhere.
- johtso 3y agoSimilar concept to this which has you guessing game cover art. https://www.gamedle.wtf/# https://www.gamedle.wtf/#
- bearmode 3y agoWow, this is fantastic. Love the 'guess' game mode.
- alexjplant 3y agoI have a memory of a DOS platformer game from when I was younger where the most reliably-correct part is the music. I've searched high and low for what it could be based on what I remember it _looking_ like to no avail. One of these days I'm going to sit down and sequence the tune in question from memory to see if anybody else online recognizes it... where should I post it once I'm done for the greatest chances of somebody recognizing it? This has been haunting me for at least two decades and I'd love to put a close to it.
- alternatetwo 3y agoreddit.com/r/tipofmytongue is a good place to start.
- foldor 3y agoFor a game, maybe reddit.com/r/tipofmyjoystick is better.
- tt_dev 3y agoThis would be really nice if we had a list of 20 options instead of guessing wildly.
- ErikHuisman 3y agoUnplayable. Took 4 tries for the correct spelling of Duck Hunt.
- athorax 3y agoHow? There is only a single suggestion for Duck Hunt (unless you include Ultimate Duck Hunt)
- eezing 3y agoThe auto select ruins the game
