There was a thread on ResetEra where people shared games that say the title of the game out loud on startup.

I've created a playlist on @[email protected] with every suggestion from that thread that had video proof attached (+ a few more):

@retrohistories @questlog Ooh, I’ve got a fantastic obscure one for you: Thieves’ Guild, a BBS game for the Atari ST with an amazing front-end client.

Here’s a video showing the intro:

And here’s an in-depth blog post about my 7-year effort to play the game and reach its ending:

@[email protected] @[email protected] oh, this is a good one! Couldn't find a way to add it to the playlist — it's not in IGDB, so you weren't kidding about obscure — but hopefully it'll be there someday. Thanks!

@[email protected] @[email protected] You could add it to the IGDB yourself and when it's approved it will be in Questlog.

I really should add an option to submit missing games. The IGDB is quite incomplete sometimes.
