The Christmas Quiz 2022

In this years Christmas Quiz there are 105 Questions, there is no rush you have until 2-1-2023 which is when I will provide all the answers. The quiz is just for fun so feel free to share the link with friends or garner their assistance in answering. There are 10 sections of 10 photos scoring 1 point/photo with a further 5 bonus questions at 2 points each for a total of 110 points. As a little help there is something that links all the games within each section. All the photographs are of game-box lids within my collection I have then simply cropped to remove as much identification as possible including company logos, identifiable tag lines and authors, as a result most of them will not be immediately recognisable but if you give them more than a cursory glance there are clues to be found and you will hopefully be surprised at how many you can identify. Good luck and please have fun, on this point please do NOT post any answers as this will spoil it for others however do feel free to comment generally on facebook and add what you think your final score is. I will give the answers both here and on facebook on 2nd January 2023.

Section A - The first 10 pictures are of games which are 30 years or more in age and are classics in their own right (okay maybe not No. 3 or No. 6) but just because they are an old design does not mean they are past it, all of these are still fun to play.

Section C - All these games are resource management games (in one way or another) my favourite style of game which is probably why I generally prefer “Euro-games”.

Section H - This section will hopefully bring some light relief, these games should be easily recognisable either by being a commonly played game (definitely more than a “one & done”) or easily deducible from the picture.
