Guess The Game II

(Guess The Game I is not in this forum. I don't even know where I put it anymore.)



Larger image.

Instructions enclosed in image.

All resolve to relatively popular video games.

May require some knowledge of maths, chemistry, physics and computing, as well as, in two different cases, a calculator (or a pen and paper) and a small bit of working knowledge of roads in Brisbane respectively.

Good luck.

H - Ori and the Blind Forest?

I - Child of light

L - Until dawn

S - Left 4 Dead

leap frog. They're all playing leap frog

C is Fallout 4

I think that B is Rise of the Tomb Raider and M is Ark 7.

E: I think Q might be a Bioshock, but I'm not sure which one.

G is Bayonetta

N - Super Smash Brothers

D - Elder Scrolls Online

R - Street Fighter 5?

Not sure what P is but seems like Russia is really thinking about Ukriane.

Iso I'm like the only one other than you to have working knowledge of roads in Brisbane and I'm still stumped.

I think it has something to do with what looks like a wildlife bridge on panel T.

There is such a bridge in brisbane that they are pretty proud of it seems.

That's in fucking Logan, literally the next city over

You're mistaken, the bridge in T is in the city of Butts.

Because T is definitely Animal Crossing.

Because people named towns dumb stuff in New Leaf.

It's funny.

A might be Oxenfree because that's a game what is popular and starts with the same letters as Oxygen. And maybe like, Oxygen in freeze?

P's obviously Victoria II because it's the only game I can think of where Ukraine has any hopes of being bigger than Russia.

Is E The Witcher?

Other than that I only got G is Bayonetta which Akumu already got.

Is E The Witcher?

That is a much better guess than mine of "Where's my water?"

The only thing I can think of for I is Electronic Super Joy, and I'm fairly sure that isn't right.

My games knowledge is bad.

E: I think Q might be a Bioshock, but I'm not sure which one.

bioshock 3, b.c 3 exclamation marks?

I H L S is correct.

C is Fallout 4

C is correct.

I think that B is Rise of the Tomb Raider and M is Ark 7.

E: I think Q might be a Bioshock, but I'm not sure which one.

B and Q is correct. (I didn't specify which Bioshock it is, so any of them is correct.)

G is Bayonetta

G is correct.

N - Super Smash Brothers

D - Elder Scrolls Online

R - Street Fighter 5?

Not sure what P is but seems like Russia is really thinking about Ukriane.

N and D is correct.

You're mistaken, the bridge in T is in the city of Butts.

Because T is definitely Animal Crossing.

Because units named towns dumb stuff in New Leaf.

T is correct.

Is E The Witcher?

Other than that I only got G is Bayonetta which Akumu already got.

E is correct, but this time I did specify which Witcher so have a guess to which one.

Total: B C D E G H I L N Q S T

It'd be appreciated, but not necessary, if anyone can show your working as well as posting the solution.

Further hints, and maybe some commentary:

I find P to be very hard myself, perhaps almost unreasonably so. But I thought about it, so clearly it isn't impossible.

R is hard enough that there's actually two completely unrelated clues in the same picture that both lead to the same answer (hence the two difficulty markers).

Here's a completely unrelated image that might assist regarding the roads-in-Brisbane:

witcher 3 naturally, considering theres 3 of them.

D - Played around with the word "scroll bar" and "slope" for a while, remembered Elder Scrolls, thought "Hah. LDR. nice" and the "online" came after that.
H - Googled "blind forest" and made a guess at what came up. I actually am not sure what the "truck - L" represents.
I - This is a Feynman diagram. The gamma symbol represents light and sometimes light will separate into particle/antiparticle pairs. Also I was playing child of light like last week.
L - Noticed the time stamp and the angle of the sun, noticed it was dawn and "until dawn" was the first game to come to mind. I noticed the arrow pointing to the time period later.
N - Basic build the word. It took a bit to realize that was soup. Before then I kept looking at "brothers, a tale of two sons".
S - if you hadn't wrote "dec" next to it I probably wouldn't have thought to check the next base. hexadecimal was the first one to try - again, google conversions came to the rescue.

Not a guess but an observation

The "$ cd ." in "O" is the linux command for "stay where you are" essentially a change directory that doesn't take you anywhere.

Lorry, not truck

which pitcher??

witcher!

e: bayonetta was really obvious to me because ive been playing bayonetta in ssb4 for a while now.

SpoilerRocket League. The bottom line is a G in the lee of a mountain, so League. The ampersand is not fully conjoined, hinting at its original formulation as a mushing together of "et". Not sure about getting rock. A guitar minus F5?

I'm pretty much stumped on all of these, but I want you to know that when I saw that G was Bayonetta I audibly groaned. Well-done.

Yup, that's right.

The guitar minus the round arrow is "rock and roll minus roll".
