Question 1 of 10
1. You grab your weapon (pistol, hatchet, or crowbar?) and head up the stairs. In the hotel are countless zombies, ready to attack and slash whatever comes near them. Let's only hope you can survive.

Which video game would fit the description?
Hint


Question 2 of 10
2. After some horrifying slashing, it was nice that you were transported to a nice little home, sitting on the roof, staring at the night sky. Of course, you were curious why mushrooms that give sun pieces were growing everywhere, but once you saw the zombies crawling in, you realized you needed a few peashooters.

Which video game would this be?
Hint


Question 3 of 10
3. Standing in the forest, you come across a truck. On it is a note; only seven remain. But a snap is heard, and your flashlight dims even greater. You turn around, and a tall figure without a face stares back, and you run. Panting, you slow down, and you hear the figure get closer. He catches you; game over (or perhaps, did you win?)

Though very simplistic, this game achieved status as one of the most bone-chilling of all time. Which one?
Hint


Question 4 of 10
4. While tending to your sugar cane, the sky darkens, and you hear a strange noise from behind. You immediately know what it is and dash for your house; you must sleep in your bed until this monster is away. Unfortunately, you don't quite make it, and the creeper blows a giant hole into the side of your house. The next day, you reluctantly begin the rebuild.

Which video game is described above?
Hint


Question 5 of 10
5. As you travel through Dawnguard, it begins getting dark. A cave in the distance; looks as good as any to keep away from wolves and thieves. Upon entering the cave, however, you see it is inhabited by three large trolls. Perhaps not the best place to stay, as you are only level eight. Exiting the cave, one of the greatest monsters of all flies ahead, a dragon. You are ill-prepared, but this is "Elder Scrolls V", so you head off to fight the wyrm.

Which game is the subtitle of "Elder Scrolls V", which includes the DLC (downloadable content) of Dawnguard?
Hint


Question 6 of 10
6. Traveling through the large castle, you have nothing but your whip to attack any vampire that might sneak out and attack you. As you advance, you encounter more difficult boss fights, finally fighting the monster you came for; Dracula himself.

Which video game is this?
Hint


Question 7 of 10
7. As Master Chief, you walk slowly through the land. In the distance, you spot two Hunters; that is going to be a tough fight. As you draw closer, intending to snipe the beasts before they see you, an Elite sneaks up from behind to attack! This is a problem; now the Hunters have spotted you. This will be a tricky fight, but that's what you get for choosing the legendary difficulty.

Which video game is this?
Hint


Question 8 of 10
8. As part of the Alpha team, you are sent to investigate many strange things around Raccoon City. As you explore the mansion (picking up an ink ribbon to save progress later), you come across a difficult boss, a Tyrant. Let's hope you are ready and properly equipped.

Which video game is this?
Hint


Question 9 of 10
9. Driving along with your daughter, Cheryl, you see a girl on the road. As you avoid hitting the girl, you crash and lose consciousness. Upon awakening, you realize your daughter is missing. Embarking on a journey to find her, you discover a cult, and all sorts of spooky things that go bump in the night frighten you as you find your daughter.

What video game is described above?
Hint


Question 10 of 10
10. As you sneak along a wall, trying not to be detected by the Alpha Section, you are frightened by the sneak attack of a Crochax! Pulling out your Jo, you get prepared for a fight. You quickly snag a picture of the beast before you slay it. Of course, that alerts the Alpha Section to your presence, but Pey'J takes care of it with his wrench.

Which video game is described above?
Hint

Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. You grab your weapon (pistol, hatchet, or crowbar?) and head up the stairs. In the hotel are countless zombies, ready to attack and slash whatever comes near them. Let's only hope you can survive. Which video game would fit the description?

Answer: Left 4 Dead 2

The survival horror video game "Left 4 Dead" was released in 2008 (xBox360 and PC); its sequel released in 2009. You can choose your weapons. A pistol is good if you do not want to get too close to the vicious zombies, but you can run out of ammo, which is, of course, a deadly thing to happen.

Other melee weapons can be used, such as a hatchet, a crowbar, a frying pan, or what have you, but, of course, this means you'll be much nearer the bloodthirsty villains of the night.
2. After some horrifying slashing, it was nice that you were transported to a nice little home, sitting on the roof, staring at the night sky. Of course, you were curious why mushrooms that give sun pieces were growing everywhere, but once you saw the zombies crawling in, you realized you needed a few peashooters. Which video game would this be?

Answer: Plants Vs. Zombies

The award-winning 2009 game "Plants Vs. Zombies" (originally released for the PC, but later for Apple devices, PS3, and xBox360) gained much success. Though zombies can be frightening creatures, the game made light of a dark subject and had players planting a garden to protect their brains. During the night, though, one cannot collect sun to buy plants, so it is necessary to have sunshrooms that give off little sun pieces (sun is used as "currency" to purchase plants to fight the zombie horde).
3. Standing in the forest, you come across a truck. On it is a note; only seven remain. But a snap is heard, and your flashlight dims even greater. You turn around, and a tall figure without a face stares back, and you run. Panting, you slow down, and you hear the figure get closer. He catches you; game over (or perhaps, did you win?) Though very simplistic, this game achieved status as one of the most bone-chilling of all time. Which one?

Answer: Slender: The Eight Pages

In 2012, an indie-developed survival horror game was released for the PC, entitled "Slender" (later called "Slender: The Eight Pages"). Though the graphics weren't lifelike, and the antagonist was rather cartoonish, upon release the game was deemed one of the most frightening to play. The music soundtrack was scary, and the light static when Slender Man is seen was chilling. The gameplay is simple; find eight notes in the forest before being caught by Slender Man and before your flashlight loses its battery.

The Slender Man of the game was based on a real life myth.
4. While tending to your sugar cane, the sky darkens, and you hear a strange noise from behind. You immediately know what it is and dash for your house; you must sleep in your bed until this monster is away. Unfortunately, you don't quite make it, and the creeper blows a giant hole into the side of your house. The next day, you reluctantly begin the rebuild. Which video game is described above?

Answer: Minecraft

"Minecraft" was released for the PC in 2011 and gained quick success. The idea was simple; you can explore a pixel world, mining for minerals, digging dirt, chopping wood, and building whatever you want with the materials you collect. You can also forge weapons and cook food. Of course, if you have the monster setting on, all things that go bump in the night start to emerge. If you do not find safety, terrible things can happen.

The quickest way to get rid of monsters is to sleep in a bed; if you can get there before creepers reach your house and blow it up!
5. As you travel through Dawnguard, it begins getting dark. A cave in the distance; looks as good as any to keep away from wolves and thieves. Upon entering the cave, however, you see it is inhabited by three large trolls. Perhaps not the best place to stay, as you are only level eight. Exiting the cave, one of the greatest monsters of all flies ahead, a dragon. You are ill-prepared, but this is "Elder Scrolls V", so you head off to fight the wyrm. Which game is the subtitle of "Elder Scrolls V", which includes the DLC (downloadable content) of Dawnguard?

Answer: Skyrim

All options are different games in the "Elder Scrolls" series, but "Skyrim", upon its release in late 2011 (for the PC, PS3, and xBox360), gained some of the best success for the series. The tremendously detailed, enormous world was enjoyable to explore, and the quests were interesting as well.

When the game was released, many a gamer spent hours and hours exploring the immense world of Skyrim, looking for opportunities to harvest dragon souls.
6. Traveling through the large castle, you have nothing but your whip to attack any vampire that might sneak out and attack you. As you advance, you encounter more difficult boss fights, finally fighting the monster you came for; Dracula himself. Which video game is this?

Answer: Castlevania

"Castlevania" (Nintendo) was first released in 1986. The video game follows Simon Belmont as he makes his way through six different levels of a castle. Each level has a famous literary or legendary boss; Frankenstein and Igor, Medusa, the Grim Reaper, a bat, some mummies, and Dracula himself (in no particular order).
7. As Master Chief, you walk slowly through the land. In the distance, you spot two Hunters; that is going to be a tough fight. As you draw closer, intending to snipe the beasts before they see you, an Elite sneaks up from behind to attack! This is a problem; now the Hunters have spotted you. This will be a tricky fight, but that's what you get for choosing the legendary difficulty. Which video game is this?

Answer: Halo

"Halo: Combat Evolved" was first released for the xBox in 2001. Players controlled the Master Chief as he tried to stop the Covenant (an alien race) from taking over the planet and destroying all humans. Hunters are difficult enemies, even with only one, and on easy. Two Hunters, with an Elite thrown in the mix, on legendary, is instant death for most.
8. As part of the Alpha team, you are sent to investigate many strange things around Raccoon City. As you explore the mansion (picking up an ink ribbon to save progress later), you come across a difficult boss, a Tyrant. Let's hope you are ready and properly equipped. Which video game is this?

Answer: Resident Evil

"Resident Evil" was originally released for the PlayStation in 1996 (a remake was made in 2002 for the GameCube, and this became a successful series). After the Bravo team has gone missing after investigating some cannibalistic murders around Raccoon City, team Alpha goes to find them; players choose between two characters from team Alpha.

As you travel through the mansion, one can pick up clues that help solve puzzles throughout, and fighting zombies and spiders and even supersoldiers known as Tyrants. Everything is limited, even the ink ribbons used to save your progress; so save only when you think you need.
9. Driving along with your daughter, Cheryl, you see a girl on the road. As you avoid hitting the girl, you crash and lose consciousness. Upon awakening, you realize your daughter is missing. Embarking on a journey to find her, you discover a cult, and all sorts of spooky things that go bump in the night frighten you as you find your daughter. What video game is described above?

Answer: Silent Hill

"Silent Hill" was first released in 1999 for the PlayStation. It follows Harry, a man who embarks on a journey to find his missing daughter. She goes missing after the two are in a car accident. While trying to locate his daughter, Harry comes across a cult, and all sorts of terrifying things occur in this ever-popular survival horror video game.
10. As you sneak along a wall, trying not to be detected by the Alpha Section, you are frightened by the sneak attack of a Crochax! Pulling out your Jo, you get prepared for a fight. You quickly snag a picture of the beast before you slay it. Of course, that alerts the Alpha Section to your presence, but Pey'J takes care of it with his wrench. Which video game is described above?

Answer: Beyond Good and Evil

"Beyond Good and Evil" was first released in 2003 for the PS2. The game follows Jade as she discovers where the citizens of Hillys are being taken. People have disappeared, and as players move through the game, they discover they are being shipped to the moon to become food.

As Jade goes through her journey, she can also take photos for the museum, and sometimes this involves getting dangerously close to enemies to get that perfect shot.
