When the game is something with a cool and distinct art style: "I love this cute little distraction."

When it's a 360-gen grey-brown shootbang game that's indistinguishable from every other 360-gen grey-brown shootbang game: "Currently breaking this game's legs."

I think if you can get Ocarina of Time in 1 go from some water pixels despite never playing or seeing the game then you can accomplish anything truly

Um quiz game divertido e relacionado a jogos, mesmo sendo praticamente impossível descobrir qual é o jogo na primeira tentativa.

A maioria de jogos do game são feitos/sugeridos pela própria comunidade (o que é um lado positivo e negativo ao mesmo tempo).

Mesmo assim não tem muito o que falar do game e apesar dos pesares ele ajuda a distrair por uns minutinhos.

Wish that they went more obscure with the game choices tbh.

Guessing the Minecraft prompt on the first picture made me ascend to the astral planes.


I don't think there's any way I can rate this. I don't have any serious issues with it, and my praise basically ends at "pretty fun."

But hey, it's pretty fun.

I'll never forgive them for including Ape Escape screenshots from an emulator that forced texture filtering bro the PSX DIDN'T DO TEXTURE FILTERING

I know it's not as easy as this but there genuinely needs to be more vetting for the submissions, the Ape Escape one was horrendous and the Left 4 Dead 2 one was bullshit (using screenshots of L4D1 campaigns is just blatantly unfair); same with the Mario Maker one recently, like c'mon.

There's others too but those are the most egregious off the top of my head as far as visual bullshit, but they also just get basic info wrong like metacritic scores, genres and release dates.

All said it scratches an itch, always fun doing this with some buds to see who gets the lowest average.

Fun little daily thing. Picture choice and/or order has been questionable sometimes.

Started a group chat with my siblings where we compete for scores and winner gets a small prize out of the other's pockets at the end of the month. I assumed this would just be a scheme for me to farm free shit, but my sister is up 6-1-1!?

I have gotten every guess the game right (except for one, fuck you rockband 2)

I am smart and I know all da video games

I can't believe i lost to Mario

I once said the answer was Mass Effect 2 when it was 3 or whatever and I'll never get over that

There was a time I recognized Glover immediately because of its water texture. There was another time where I guessed L.A. Noire because I knew what kind of greens Rockstar liked to use on the Xbox 360, which disturbed me because I played that game entirely in black and white. I guess what I'm saying is that this is fun and occasionally it makes me really sad. I've never missed a game, and it's starting to feel like I'm a gunman begging to die in some old western.

UPDATE: My streak ended at #399.

Wordle for video games. Since I've spent pretty much my entire life hyper fixated on this medium, it's a lot of fun testing my ability to recognize so many different games across so many different systems and generations. I genuinely look forward to guessing the next game every single day. Sometimes the screenshots used can be bad because they zoom in way too close on a minor background element that doesn't really stand out in any fashion, and this is my only real criticism of it.

constant and endless proof that i don't actually know any videogames

Fuck generic looking 7th gen brown shooters/open world games, all my homies hate generic looking 7th gen brown shooters/open world games

Clever and simple design that makes you feel like you can see the Matrix when you guess a game first try and it's just a zoomed in picture of a blot of colour.

In reality it just makes me appreciate games that manage to create a strong unique visual language that's instantly recognisable.

Im so fucking smart, I'm glad my brain only knows Video Games

Hello fellow guess the game players!

Same thing as Framed but with games so I'll not be logging this daily for the same reason. Also much easier than Framed just due to game art styles being so varied. Definitely has a better database than Framed though!

Play this literally every morning first thing. It's a lot of fun when you have a bunch of other people to compare your results to.

Losing my 220 day winstreak to fucking Dig Dug is my personal 9/11

Been playing this for some time now, and it's a nice little thing to do when I remember to. I really don't have any real complaints, except my own inability to know the difference between a dozen different PC-only strategy franchises and indies I've never heard of.

Result - 148/157
I was frequently able to correctly guess specific games that I don't think I've seen so much as a screenshot from, as the algorithm would often shoot the correct answer to the top of the list. The first suggestion after typing "Super" was "Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars". I quickly lent into typing "Far Cry" whenever it showed me a nondescript CGI landscape.

I was able to quickly identify many indie games with simplistic NES-style graphics that I've seen some berate for looking identical to a hundred other pixelart indie games, so that was gratifying. My consoleguy status is further solidified, though I did use a PC to play this.

GAPS IN MY KNOWLEDGE:
Diablo
GRIS
Divinity: Original Sin II
Hunt: Showdown
Risk of Rain 2
The Talos Principle (I knew this was the one with a cat on the cover, but couldn't remember the name)
Dead by Daylight
Amnesia: The Dark Descent
Rust

stopped playing because ads took over the site and ruined the experience. was fun while it lasted


Finally, something I'm good at

Mais um Wordle-like, que acaba entrando na variação de imagens para adivinhar. É bem legal, por mais que a escolha das imagens é sempre duvidável.

I love guessing games, but minus a star for the times i got one wrong :(
