Quantcast


Monday Mind Teasers:

You know how it works! With the help of each other, try to figure out all of the disguised game covers. They all share a common theme that, once solved, can help you figure out the harder ones.

This week's theme is both relevant and easy, so I made sure to include a large quantity of brain busters to keep you busy for a while. Also, many of the game covers used this week are mainstream titles, so if you've never participated in these posts before, now might be the time to jump in! Don't be afraid to shout out ideas and work together as a team to solve them all. Good luck!

P.S. If you haven't voted on the Prototype VS inFamous game debate yet, then tonight is your last chance.

Yeah the topic title doesnt seem to make a pun out of itself like others... maybe I am watching it the wrong way?

Theme -- solved! It's games with "4" in the title, of the 4th installment of a series.

@Monodi, the theme is 4 in honor of the recent 4th of July, and the title's quote comes from the movie Independence Day :)

Easy 5 -- solved.
Medium 2 -- solved.
Easy 1 -- solved.
Easy 2 -- solved.
Easy 3 -- solved.
Easy 4 -- solved.
Medium 1 -- solved.
Medium 3 -- solved.
Medium 4 -- solved.


Prey -- not one of them.

Medium 5 and Hard 1-4 still remain!

@Fronz

aaaaaaaahhh hahahah I remember now. Critics mention ID4 to be a horrible movie but it is one of the ones I like just for nostalgia sake, kind of with Space Jam too.

Fuck the critics, that movie is awesome. It never gets old after countless rewatches years later. I think it was also Ian Malcolm's last great role :)

Hard 2 -- solved.
Hard 4 -- solved.

Hard 3: Sid Meier's Civilization IV

Hard 3 looks like an Alligator looking at a Monkey. I can't unsee that. I'd say Donkey Kong 64... but it totally doesn't work. :P

DK64 would have been the fourth, and does have a "4" directly in the title, kinda.

Are you sure that Hard 3 isn't Civilization 4? It sure looks like it, at least to me.
