Cassette Beasts? :) It looked so familiar, I guessed with having seen it on my wishlist!

Hint 1: Softbearcas Profile pic is in the game, partially visible in picture 3.

Hmmm those could be the little pawprints of an animal... is it Doronko Wanko?

Got it in 2 attempts :)
Did the hint tip it off?
I was wondering if it was too much. But on the other side pictures could be seen as quite generic, so its a diff balance too keep.
Comment has been collapsed.
Oh I actually didn't see the hint until now 🙀 The 3rd pic helped me on it's own, especially with the colourful "New" icon which made me think of a game that would be on the cuter side (with the first 2 pics I was still thinking of some kind of House Builder/Sim game) This one's been very high on my list to play soon! Not many dog games out there and special for me that it's a pomeranian too :D

New image?
How I understand officially should be every 12 hours?
Comment has been collapsed.
GRAAAH! First one! I am so happy! It felt so hard looking at all the other screenshots that I didn't recognize at all... YES!
Comment has been collapsed.
Oh, is that a Wombat? Thought it was some kind of rat.
Game is exactly the kind of farming-sim animal crossing type I thought it was though.
Comment has been collapsed.
Yes :) I wanted to include the whole Wombat but Google Lens is way too good at it's job lol! It's basically Australian Animal Crossing :D

Picture isn't showing up without clicking through to imgur for me.
Can work better if you link direct to the image.
I'll just try My Time at Sandrock?
Comment has been collapsed.
The game suggestion is not correct, DemonsRift got it right, but how do you directly link the image? I don't quite understand...
Comment has been collapsed.
you linked the url to the imgur "album", which doesn't have a data format at the end (https://imgur.com/a/AuMOwJV)
if you right click the image on the imgur album and select "copy image adress" you will get the correct link, with a data format at the end like .png or .jpg (https://i.imgur.com/L4tfa52.png in this case)
this is not just imgur but with every picture/gif you can link on here, it needs to have a data format to be displayed directly

It's not warhammer, but does look like it could be.
Comment has been collapsed.
Not good guesses but I'm getting somewhat older Final fantasy or remake Baten Kaitos vibes.
Comment has been collapsed.
It's neither of those but I wouldn't call them bad guesses.
Comment has been collapsed.
Good game but not the right answer.
Agastar got it right with "Lost Odyssey"

This game was pulled from Steam (by the developer, not by Steam) about a year and half ago. I didn't know that until just now.
It was meant to be a parody of a MUCH more successful game.

Psychonauts 2? Looks vaguely like a figment from Cassie's Collection.
Comment has been collapsed.
I have no idea what this is, but I just want to say searching Hitler games brings up some very weird results.
Trying to find delisted games also drew a blank as it mostly just the big ones that get mentioned.
Comment has been collapsed.
I don't think the graphics match, but fits the other clues.
NotGTAV AKA NotTheNameWeWanted?

The first picture was giving me resi vibes, but the torch is making me think silent hill.
I think the textures are too crisp for this, but I will try Silent Hill: Homecoming?

That flashlight really makes me think of Rise of the Tomb Raider...

I have no idea, but I want to say I really like the squirrel.

Yes!

It's amazing that the "Guess the Game" thread is still alive and from what I can see, it's holding up quite well.
But whatever, here's a new mystery game for you to guess!
Bonus hint: This game is a combination of Metroidvania and a homage to old adventure platformers like Dizzy.
Comment has been collapsed.
No clue but bump, maybe someone comes by that knows.
Comment has been collapsed.
interesting, the only homage to Dizzy i know is Spud's Quest... oh well consider this a bump
Comment has been collapsed.
That's correct!!
If you haven't played Mystik Belle, I highly recommend it. Even if you don't like this type of games, it's worth at least seeing one of the most dazzling 2D graphics ever.

a little-known but legendary roguelike game:D and this is its second part

I'm pretty confident in my guess so it is my turn
Comment has been collapsed.
To be fair I only remembered the game coming up before and wish listing it on gog, as it looked interesting.
Then when I searched it wasn't surprising it was the guy who got it quick that had done it 😀
Comment has been collapsed.
I was fairly sure it was me who got Albion correctly once, so chalk that one too up for good memory :P

Not Zoombinis but this one is also a kids/family game (not educational, though). My kids loved playing it during lockdown.
New screenshot!

You know, almost every time someone posts a new game here, I think something like "Dammit, I know that I played this one, just cannot put my finger on it". Same with the troll here, it looked incredibly familiar and I tried to remember all of the (not that many) children's games in this style that I played... and of course it turns out to be something I have never played at all.
In this case, Kinect Party.
I have never even owned an X-Box, let alone a Kinect.
Comment has been collapsed.
You are correct!
I also get that feeling you describe and even go through a couple of sites searching for it... but, more often than not, it is usually something I've never played.
Comment has been collapsed.
Oh have I a good one. And by "good" I mean "one of the worst I played".
Hint 1: This is a licensed game, based on a cartoon.
Hint 2: The game, cartoon and main character are named after a famous actor.
Comment has been collapsed.
I don't think this game has rats. Mice, yes. Worms, Beetles, various other insects, but no rats.
Comment has been collapsed.
Is it a cartoon we would have heard of, or some obscure German one?
Comment has been collapsed.
Quite obscure, but not german. Added another picture.
Comment has been collapsed.
It is not related to Hugo. Not the troll, not the house of horrors-visitor, certainly not the jungle creature.
Comment has been collapsed.
I think I got it , but oh boy is this obscure
i think this is detective Bogey on a run . If I remember well it was not even released in my country, but a german friend lent it to me.

New hint :

Nope, but it was released one year after rampage!

Psycho Fox? This looks like a Sega Master System game.
Comment has been collapsed.
Looks a lot like Billy la Banlieue or well Billy 2

What is a boogaloo?
The Electric Boogaloo is a dance style that became meme-ified to denote crazy sequels, as popularized by the 1984 film Breakin' 2: Electric Boogaloo. While we are not break dance battling here, it is kind of like a screenshot battle and hence, the "screenshot boogaloo".
