Here is my entry !!! Once again, only ALMOST finished. Please don't hit me...

Sorry for the poor quality of the picture... I've just changed my phone, and I don't know how to take beautiful pics for the moment...

Do you know that game ?? :thumbsup: I didn't :P

My clue was :

"You'll need a lot of crabs to shoot for the moon".

Well, I didn't know which game it was reffered. And I didn't know the meaning of the expression : "to shoot for the moon" either... so I started to look for a game about space and shellfishes lol, but still not sure ; and then I discovered that game (!), and I fell in love with these green gigantic crabs.
I hope you'll like them too, and I'm very curious to know which could be my "real" game now !!! :D Who will give me the answer... ?

"to shoot for the moon" means "to achieve the impossible" - it's an old US saying that harkens back to the space race of the 1960's I believe. It is also strategy for the card game "Hearts" (a very hard one, hence the name).

I like the rather direct interpretation you did of shooting... crabs. XD

Oh, man... this should have been up weeks ago, but real life got in the way (as always). I finished the stitching last night - discovering the counting errors along the way, naturally! - but due to travels today, I wasn't able to wash / dry / block/ prettify the piece. Forgive me!

My clue was as follows:

"I am the chosen. Evil Fears my Holy Blade. The sky brings forth light."

Well, that said absolutely jack to me. My family seems to think it's Skyward Sword, though none of us have played it. But then, who said I have to get it right?

- He is the chosen (Gallade, I choose you!)
- Evil fears his Leaf Blade
- The sky brings forth light (for five turns, eight with Heat Rock)

FOOLPROOF

I couldn't decide on Castlevania or Mario so I mixed them together : ) Hope you like it!

Here is my not nearly finished piece:

My clue was "A spicy space tale," so I went with the main character from the Dune game.

Since all the screenshots were so big, I decided to make my piece 96x96, to go into the charity quilt. :D
