Guess the games based on the description of inventory. Remember to impress us with your gaming knowledge, not your Googling ability. Apologies for how easy it is.

  1. You have buffered analgesic and a thing your aunt gave you which you don’t know what it is. (Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy - Belboz)

  2. You have a green herb, an ink ribbon, and a broken shotgun. (Resident Evil - Terok Nor)

  3. You have an eel statue and a souvenir knife. (Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis - Sciere)

  4. You have a Voralberg key and a jar of crystallized honey. (Syberia - Unicorn Lynx)

  5. You have a Pearl Detector and an MDisk. (Beyond Good and Evil - WildKard)

  6. You have a Gel'ziabar Stone and a Tibetan War Cannon. (Clive Barker's Undying - Santa (and Lightknight for the title assist))

  7. You have an ISA multi-tool and Puck. (Rama - WildKard)

  8. You have a Cell Phone Grapple and a Decryptor. (007: Nightfire- Terrence Bosky)

  9. You have the Heart of the Guardian and computer spikes. (Knights of the Old Republic - Kartanym)

  10. You have a crown, a magic ring (of healing), and Brashnard's Ultimate Sphere of Power. (Majesty: The Fantasy Kingdom Sim - Terrence Bosky)

Nice one! A lot of things sound familiar, but I'm only sure that the third one is Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis.

Wow! Tougher than it looks! I know #1 is Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.

I'll take a stab at it.

7 is Rama, the game based off of Arthur C. Clark's series of the same name (that reminds me that I miss the music from that game).

5 is Beyond Good and Evil, the only game I've bought so far based entirely on praise from the approver gang here at Mobygames :)

and #1 I'm less sure about, but it tickles my brain and might be Infocom's Hollywood Hijinx.

I was thinking Goldeneye for no.8, but it could also be Perfect Dark.

I'm probably wrong, but I'll take a stab at the last two anyway, for the fun of it :p

9 - KOTOR? 10 - Diablo?

Not Goldeneye or Perfect Dark, but those games could have those items, too, I guess.

No, but that looks cool. I hate how many games I've missed.

Ok, I'll try that one again but I'm probably a long way off.

Mission Impossible?
