Still no guesses? Hope I don't have to post another game... three strikes and you're out!

I don't know, and I don't think anyone's following this thread anymore.. may as well give up I suppose.

Somehow I missed this thread!

I know this is not it, but it looks a little like Beneath a Steel Sky. I'm still poking around on mobygames trying to find it. 😀

edit: hint? 😀

I'm definitely following it, but if nobody knows the answer, there'll be no replies!!

No, not beneath a steel sky; nor is it the same genre. BASS was released a few years after this game.

I just checked and although its on Mobygames, there is no screenshots... might make it hard to find! It is on a particular site with 'abandonware' in the domain name with screenshots....

In any case, don't just give it away because none happened to know it. It's a nice screenshot, let people-us search for it.

I've been folllowing too, but the last few have really gotten me stuck!

Despite what one of my earlier hints would suggest... it's not a baseball game, or any kind of sports game really

Strike II (1991) by Millenium Interactive?

That's it! Well done 😀

Your turn to post a game!

Well done, RadioPoultry! I'd never heard of Strike II. Let's see what you can come up with.

Woohoo!
OK, guess the game:

Lightspeed?

Nope! No space ships in this one, as far as I know.

Get Lost! ?

Yes! I thought I'd have to give some hints for that one. Your turn!

Probably rather obscure... but unlike the usual hipster-challenge, there's a loophole of sorts. 😉

Wow, that is obscure. Spent far too much time trying to figure it out. 🤣. Hopefully someone will figure it out, but it probably won't be me!

Is it one of those "IBM Freeware" games you spoke of on your blog?

Hmm, nope - here's a hint: it's not by Microsoft, but it has something in common with a certain infamous game that Bill Gates co-authored.

Your hint gave me a number of trails to follow, but they all ended up at dead ends. 🙁
