    Lets see…..
    Adventure
    Asteroids
    Baseball
    Breakout
    Circus
    Combat
    Football
    Haunted House
    Pac-Man
    Superman
    Video Pinball
    Yars Revenge
    …..looks like I’m missing 11. Anyone care to help?

  2. Dang, what beach is that? I wanna go…

  3. VicSage2005 says:

    Air-Sea-Battle (Upper right corner)
    Sky Diver (Above Air-Sea-Battle)
    Space Invader (Below Yar’s Revenger)
    Outlaw?
    Brain Games (Next to the Outlaw and Homerun and under another Breakout)
    Casino (Next to Basketball)
    Hangman (Girl on green blanket)
    Indy 500 (Below Hangman)
    Video Chess? (Behind the two children)
    Maze Craze (Above Hangman)

    That’s all I can manage. I can’t for the life of me place the amusement park or the kids.

    Nice! I couldn’t remember the names of Brain Games – and never would have gotten Hangman.

  5. The Retroist says:

    You guys are very close, an error or two. I will wait another day or two and see if you want me to post the answers (I have the answer key).

    Pretty sure the umbrella is Breakout and the spaceman is Super Breakout. For the life of me I can’t place the wizard — I know I know it!

  7. VicSage2005 says:

    I think you are quite right, Dan, about the Spaceman. The wizard is for Brain Games. Still can’t place the kids or the amusement park though…we can’t give up yet though, my friends!

  8. VicSage2005 says:

    The beach could be from Flag Capture. The P.T. boat looks like it might be from Canyon Bomber.

    Those kids and the amusement park…could the kids be the ‘babies’, Tarra and Torr, from Sword Quest? THAT is a long shot I know. What a delicious puzzle.

  9. VicSage2005 says:

    Well, Retroist. I think we have been officially stumped…allow me some peace of mind and let us have that answer key. :)

    What is that bat looking thing under the beach chair by the sandcastle? Looks like eyes next to it.

  11. VicSage2005 says:

    The eyes and bat are both from the cover of Haunted House, OffisaPups. :)

  12. The Retroist says:

    Alright here are the answers:

  13. VicSage2005 says:

    So those kids were a red herring? Thank you very much for the answer key, Retroist. I may once again sleep soundly at night. Ha, ha.
