So, a year has passed since I registered here. Through this year, thanks to you, I was able to win 5 games in public giveaways, and got many freebies thanks to your posts on forum. Because I really like the idea of puzzle giveaways (I even did one before), I decided to thank all of you in giving you a chance of winning few games :P .

GIVEAWAYS HERE

Every game I give away here is a steam gift which I send through e-mail. You don't have to hurry me by sending friend requests - I gonna send every game to you, but give me some time for this :p .

So, for a good start, take here the first giveaway for which you don't have to solve anything:

Cthulhu Saves the World & Breath of Death VII Double Pack

And time for puzzles. First three are mixing knowledge of movies and music. The only thing you have to do is to put movie title as an answer (English titles from IMDB):

And now puzzle for those who aren't into movies so much:

  • "Nerdy" skills quiz - prize is Deus Ex: GOTY (WARNING: mp3 here is very loud and may not be pleasant for headphones users)
  • Random quiz - prize is The Witcher Enhanced Edition (multiple choice quiz)

As added with my second edit of the post:

In case of troubles with links in puzzles (I never used box.com before, so I don't know if links can expire or sth) here is direct link to folder with every mp3 from quiz: click. a for Asian, e for European, u for American, s for nerdy :) .

IMPORTANT INFO

Please don't share answers or hints on forums. If I decide to help you, I gonna do this. Puzzles have hints built in, so it will help you more or less. Also, I'm always ignoring chat requests on steam and unknown friend requests, so I won't help you in this way for sure.

Also don't share direct links to giveaways.

Every giveaway ends 10th September at 08:00PM CEST (which is UTC +2 I guess)

Good luck!


EDIT 1:

First hints here:

  • Asian question 5 - when you got already a hint, you can look only through 80s since he played and sung in many movies later too.
  • European question 3 - click <- this short movie uses the same idea as the full-length one I gave in quiz. Believe me, there is a short way from this hint to the answer :p
  • American question 5 - remember the scene from a certain movie where one guy was singing this in his own way, and the second came and started to teach him how to sing it properly?
  • Nerdy question 3 - keyword for this: "esoteric"

Also I've already gave a lot of hints here, so just look for my posts :) .


EDIT 2:

New quiz. It's general movie quiz also with multiple choice answers. The prize is LucasArts Adventure Pack.

Also, if you solved one of previous puzzles, you maybe interested in looking once again at the description of giveaway. You can find another bonus from me here :-) .

I noticed that I made some grammar mistakes in this puzzle which can indicates more than one possible answer. It's by mistake - there is only one answer in every question. If somewhere I used "were" I really meant "was" :) .


EDIT 3:

A little hints which can help with Asian and European quiz (in most cases it was already said on forums).

Countries were movies were made (in the same order as questions):

  • Asian quiz: Japan, Hong Kong, Japan, Hong Kong, Hong Kong
  • European quiz: Germany, Austria, Sweden, Denmark, France

EDIT 4:

Congratulations for the winners :) . Answers with songs names are in my latest post.

Songs from Asian movies

Q5: from which year ? I have multiple answers for that

Comment has been collapsed.

Well, it was made on purpose for just one movie, so it would be too easy if I tell you now, which movie is it. All I can say, that it's from 80s, and guy from hint not only sings, but also plays main character.

Also in this one, there are multiple answers - this movie has a lot of different titles, so I've put the most recognizable ones (although what surprised me now, on English Wikipedia there's another title which I probably haven't put as possible answer). IMDB and it's function with showing alternative titles of the movie should be the best friend in finding answer :-)

Oh man when your giveaways finish can you tell us the song names ? I loved a couple of them XD. Thank you for the giveaways and puzzles, but i'm bad at puzzles and i don't enter for games that i know i won't have the time to play. XD So really i'm just interested in the song, it would be awesome when the giveaways finish to tell us just the names of the songs XD.

If you've already seen a hint about an event - read about HOW data was encoded. I really can't help you more, since already some people gone through this without more exact hints.

I personally knew NOTHING about this, but the clue in the hint made me do some research online. I learnt something new. I think that clue is enough to put anyone determined enough on the right track.

If it helps - answer isn't a game :P . As I already wrote in one of posts - it's encoded message and you have to find a way to decode it.

Honestly... The hint revealed in the quiz says everything. The event it talks about was big enough to leave plenty of material online, including videos. What more can you possibly need to figure out what to do?

I'm just stuck on Q5. I've been using the hint and trying out various possible films I managed to Google, but nothing worked so far. Another hint please?

And Q3 hint in this thread is actually very valuable.

Q5 is very famous movie, one of the first of its kind. Newest rerelease was very widely known since it was one of the first movies in color (manually painted film), and after many years, color copy has been found and restored digitally with this new soundtrack.

If you still don't know, wait for another part of hints in this thread ;) .

For sure it's good since people were able to solve it ;P . The only problem can be with the fact, that Hongkongese movies has a lot of different titles. I've put like 4-5 possible answers in this one, but I can't be sure if it's every possible English title. These which I put (for sure) here as answers were on IMDB as: USA title, USA long title, Hong Kong English title.
If it helps - all I can tell is that this movie is a sequel.

I think I'll pass on doing the Asian and American movies because I already have the games given away and my head is exploding from all the puzzles anyway. I'm also tackling somebody else's puzzle. I need to relax. XD Thanks for everything.

I tak coś może wypadałoby też po polsku powiedzieć. Pozdrawiam i mam nadzieję, że się jeszcze nieraz spotkamy. ;P

There are already a lot of hints for them. If built-in hints or hints in first post didn't help you, you may want to go through posts here. Also, check out multiple choice quizzes, because they have some hints to these 3 song quizzes.
