Gamedle: like Wordle but with games instead of words

The likelihood, then, is that I heard about it, took a look at it, concluded it wasnโ€™t for me, and forgot about it. The gaming space is so huge these days, keeping track of the stuff I want to play occupies all the mental space I can give it. :)

Never had a NES, so pure luck that I eventually chose the correct Kirby game out of the 26 (!) listed

To some extent, screw these ones where there are about 30 iterations of the title over the last 30 years.

I knew pretty early (frame 2 I think?) that it was a Kirby game, but with so many options, I didnโ€™t have any idea which.

At #3 I started guessing Kirby games, but never got the right one. Iโ€™ve never played any of them and had no idea there were so damn many.

Well hereโ€™s a big old blind spot. My last guess was its sequel.

Never heard of it

Like everyone else: I knew it was Kirby by 2. I tried every Kirby game I thought might be era appropriate but was ultimately wrong :(

Heard of it, never seen it. It looks like every other FPS.

In hindsight, I should have figured it out when โ€œBungieโ€ appeared as developer.

Recognized the boxy drone thingy from my brief trial of D2 but noted the absence of a PC release.

That first frame looked maddeningly familiar but I couldnโ€™t place it. As others have said, fantastic game.

The answer does ring a bell, but Iโ€™d never have remembered it.

I didnโ€™t have a clue until #5, and then I thought it might be Bionic Commando first! From #6 I remembered it was โ€œshadow somethingโ€ so I cheated and googled the name!

Oh well. I heard the name but I donโ€™t think I ever saw any screenshots or game footage for that.

Is that the one that Orson Scott Card had something to do with? I remember some controversy around that, but not the game itself.

This is one where the info hints really made a difference. Could have been a lot of games by the screenshots (probably ten games had a level with those dam structures), but not only on Xbox and being a 3D platformer.

Itโ€™s a good game. Now remastered and on PC.

Yeah, those would definitely have nailed it down if I could have thought of anything at all that fit those criteria!

He was not directly involved in the game proper. I think the one game he actually worked on is Advent Rising, but I could be wrong.

My first thought was a Mario Kart, but didnโ€™t recognise the red arrows.
