Episode 138 - Ms. Pac-Man
On this week's show I talk all about legendary video game, Ms. Pac-Man. I am joined this week by Doug McCoy with a brand new "Also Ran".
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?
Dang, what beach is that? I wanna go…
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.
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!
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!
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.
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.
The eyes and bat are both from the cover of Haunted House, OffisaPups. :)
Alright here are the answers:
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.
