Name That Game Via Box Art! April 2021 Forum Thread Game

[nosweargamer]

Welcome to our next game!

This month we will be guessing games by a portion of their box art. I will start. Whoever guesses right earns a point and gets to go next. If no one guesses correct after 12-24 hours, hints may be given. When posting the art, please include the platform it's from. No adult games please. Using art from the manual or cartridge is ok if it matches the box art. This game will only run through April 2021.

If you want to play, you can also follow the thread to get email notifications of new posts.

Here's the first one:

Atari 2600

@nosweargamer Combat?

Being an emulator freak all my life, this is going to be a real challenge! But it's a SUPERB idea!

Combat is correct! You can see the planes in the upper left corner.

 Your turn!

[HDN]

Here’s a tricky one for you all. It’s a semi-rare maze game for the Atari 2600.

[RickR]

Bank Heist.

Sorry. I didn't see your post, RickR. But, you are right, I think.

I think we both should get a point.

@nosweargamer, make it so!

Wow, that’s almost copy-paste!

Bank Heist is right!

[nosweargamer]

Sorry, point goes to the first person who gets the answer. @RickR is up!

[RickR]

Well, I tried.  @DegasElite, keep on trying!

Platform:  Atari 2600. 

 

[DegasElite]

Basketball.

Very good guess, but not correct. 

[DegasElite]

Could it be Double Dunk?

Another good guess, but no.  Hint:  I purposely tried to trick you all.  Another hint:  launch title.

[DegasElite]

Nope. That's not it either.

[DegasElite]

Video Olympics, of course!

YES!  I just pulled one corner off the art that has several sports shown.  Good job.  Your turn.

 

[HDN]

Video Olympics is amazing!

[DegasElite]

My turn. Here we go.

Platform: A2600.

Early type of game in its genre. I am sure you have heard of it.

[HDN]

Crypts of Chaos?

[DegasElite]

Very good. Correct. Your turn, HDN.

[HDN]

This is for the 2600, but you could mistake it for an Intellivision game! 🦆
