Panic or Switch depending on what part of the world you are from?
Good !
This game is really weirdo.
For those who don't know it, it's about like a maze, but each "room" is a little stage, animated or not, where you have to find what to do. Usually, you move/click buttons and it leads you to another stage, sometime making a loop to one you already did.
This game was re-released on PS2.

Well, i'm a bit stuck on this one.
At least for your two previous, i could guess the console.
Looking at the screen, it make sme think of the Amiga 500/Atari 520 era.

Its a console 3d puzzle game that kinda plays like a strange version of klax. If that helps lol.
 
aerf, sadly, i was stucked on the last one. Couldn't get an idea :/
Same here. I did my best to search without reverse googling the screenshot, but alas, that was a worthless attempt.
I waited to see if anyone had a guess, but there wasn't any reply since Thursday, and as I wrote in OP, I made this round last a week, ending today.

Another round can start at any moment, it only depends on if people wants to play :P
 
Wait...winner? Sorry...I had no idea the purpose of this thread game was to name the most obscure title on the most obscure system possible. :P
Since when was the 3DO the most obscure system ever?? Lol obscure would be something like the Hanimex 7771 or the Rollet Videocolor or about another 10 consoles i could think of that you probably have never heard of.

It was retardedly expensive.

I was using this thing called "hyperbole". Just because there are more obscure consoles people built from their garages doesn't mean that a console discontinued 20 years ago (and hardly sold) somehow isn't obscure.

And let's not forget the game itself. Maybe something in a top-10 or top-20 list would've been guessable, but gritters doesn't have either a wikipedia nor a metacritic page, and just searching "gritters" only even mentions that it is also a game on the second google page. That's already ticking quite some boxes when voting for the ACTUAL most obscure game ever.

Perhaps if you actually searched for gridders and not gritters you may have more luck lol.

Oh and this is a quote from @VinsCool from page one of this thread the very thread that VinsCool is the OP of and the rule maker of this name the game thread.

As long as it was officially released, it's fine for the game.

In fact, I encourage obscure games, that would make it challenging, and interesting,.

Sorry, but no...I actually DID search for gridders. I only misspelled it here. That was obviously a mistake (sorry for that), but doesn't change my previous post much.

I know it's okay to pick whatever game you want, but it's akin to a music quiz where instead of known tunes the questions are about Gregorian hymns.

Then i personally would go and educate myself about Gregorian Hymns so as i could take part i would not complain about it as they are following the rules of the quiz but hey thats just me. Nowhere did the rules by @VinsCool state they had to be top 10 or 20 rated games. Again vins stated the more obscure the better. Perhaps the meaning of the word obsucure is different in your part of the world but here it is pretty much something that most people have never heard of. You can show me a top 50 games list for any console and i will have heard of pretty much every one of them so your suggestion of games having to be top 10/top 20 would not make it obscure games sorry.

Anyway @VinsCool lets start another round of this fun game. This time though i will be sitting it out and just watching as my over 30 years of playing games seems to put me at an unfair advantage. And anyway if its run under @Taleweaver rules of top 20 games its going to hold no interest for me to play. I dont do easy I like to be challenged lol.

Well again, just don't make it impossible to guess either :P

Since you won round 1, I guess you can open the 2nd round :)
