That's it! I find that music to be fairly memorable.

We'll see if anyone gets this. I am not sure if it is a remix but it is pretty close to the original if it is.

Edit: Perhaps it's just me but I don't see the option for inserting an audio file inline. How do I do that?

Edit 5 or 6: I think I figured it out. No URL needed, just put "attachment" inside square brackets and it looks for the attachment and puts it inline eh? I thought I'd have to do some URL, declare it as an audio file, close the tags, etc.

Well now I'm feeling bad. Perhaps not everyone eats cereal?

I'll leave it to guess unless someone requests the game title, and move on to a new one.

Yes, I only passed the first and second tower, got stucked on the third or fourth, it's very hard. A great puzzle game with a good repetitive song.

Beat every level in every version of LOLO except for PROD, the fourth "hidden pro level". PROA PROB and PROC were hard enough and I hadn't the patience for PROD. I may go back to it someday.

I never played LOLO until the third millenium, though (didn't have it for NES, I've emulated it since).

Should I give hints? Next turn goes to anyone guessing either game (the first two clips are from the same game, the third clip is a different game). Both are computer games from the mid to late 90s and I didn't think either was obscure.

west.logan, I downloaded that first clip (the one posted right below Penumbra's last post), and though the file name is 'demo.mp3', when imported into iTunes, the file plays and the name shows up in the list of music as Chex Quest E1M5_ Caverns (Pump It Remix).mp3. I have no idea why that happened. So, hey, that's the first game. Spoiling it because that might happen for others? But the other two audio clips didn't do that.

I don't know what that second game is.

Great! That's one way of figuring it out.

I'm not sure how that happened either, as I recorded it in Audacity and just a chunk at that. But yes, Chex Quest is the game and it has an interesting Wikipedia article. A couple of the creators came back later and made a "Chex Quest 3" which has the first two plus bonus levels. The game started as a promotional for chex cereal and apparently "sold" over 5 million copies, won some awards, and was responsible for a 250% increase in the sales of chex cereal

Your turn. And I'd be happy to reveal the other clip but surely someone has played that game.

I gave Rabscuttle a couple of points 'cause he actually guessed something and I didn't.
But yeah, I'll still go if that's okay. I know at least a few of you guys have played this game.

Very good, and that's correct. Like I said, I didn't think either game was terribly obscure but perhaps I think that because I knew neighbors who played it when I was a kid

I have fond memories of Keen 4, partially because my father used to stay up at nights to leave me with a surprise top score that I then had to beat.

Oh my! I know this one! But, well, I don't, but I do. I always hated sound puzzles, and I definitely recognize this one. Maybe it will come to me later...

Nope, it wasn't me.

That has a more "make the stupid stop" vibe than an "I'm so stupid" one
