    ReplyDelete
  3. thanks, this should take up my weekend...lol got the first 2 not sure on 3....

    ReplyDelete
  4. Stuck on that first object on level 5. I know what it looks like, but surely not?

    ReplyDelete
  5. Level 3 - first of all think of betrayal.

    ReplyDelete
  6. oops meant got the first 3 not sure on 4

    ReplyDelete
  7. OK rds, level 4 - what kind of moon is it?

    ReplyDelete
  8. for five, look up the word you have in urban dictionary

    ReplyDelete
  9. Clogagh, for 5, it is, lol

    ReplyDelete
  10. If you get a "404 Page Not Found", that means the answer is wrong, click back in your browser to try again

    ReplyDelete
  11. thanks clodagh.... onto level 10 now

    ReplyDelete
  12. I guess I'm dating myself, but on 14 and only a couple I had to google!
    Have to figure out what that object is on 14 :)

    ReplyDelete
  13. my internet is slow, how are you doing now clodagh? I am stuck on 11 at the moment... let me know if you need any help

    ReplyDelete
  14. Can someone give me another hint for level five? Blues brothers + ???

    ReplyDelete
  15. aitch, it's ???? then the brothers

    ReplyDelete
  16. finally - never heard of them!

    ReplyDelete
  17. Thanks rds - I'm still stuck on 5 - I've tried all sorts of things, and finally come up with Joint Brothers, which isn't right. (I won't tell you what I originally thought the first picture was - just to say it wasn't a funny cigarette...).

    ReplyDelete
  18. rds, name where you might see the first pic

    ReplyDelete
  19. My son had hysterics when I told him what I'd originally put for level 5.

    ReplyDelete
  20. any hints on 11 please?

    ReplyDelete
  21. If I don't have any help on level 5 soon, I'm going to have to list all the things I've tried - it'll be long and embarrassing!

    ReplyDelete
  22. @Clodagh: LOL. I thought exactly the same thing. Still don't have 5.

    ReplyDelete
  23. for 5, it is what it looks like, what else can you call it? Duthie's hint to use Urban Dictionary is a good one

    ReplyDelete
  24. I got it! Need two pop's I guess:)

    ReplyDelete
  25. clodagh you are so close.... whats another name for it starting with d?????

    ReplyDelete
  26. rds, for 11, where is that landscape? and be sure you are spelling correctly :)

    ReplyDelete
  27. Tried Duthie's Urban Dictionary hint Donas, but the trouble is that I'm not sure what I'm looking at in the first place!

    ReplyDelete
  28. level 18 - I've got an answer but it's not working

    ReplyDelete
  29. I'm stuck on 18 too but can offer help on the earlier ones

    ReplyDelete
  30. @clodagh - try googling bands containing the word (2nd image)

    ReplyDelete
  31. for level 18, googles the images

    ReplyDelete
  32. level 5 help....check out the other names: http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=joint

    ReplyDelete
  33. @donas - I only get a google result for the bottom images

    ReplyDelete
  34. another word for joint clodagh?

    ReplyDelete
  35. annaby, you should find a film name

    ReplyDelete
  36. On 2, what is the 3rd image?
    I think its something a car needs... o**

    ReplyDelete
  37. 18: the bottom images should help tremendously....if you think Italian collective names

    ReplyDelete
  38. Hooray hooray hooray! Thanks everyone, and finally Jonthewatch for the long one beginning with D! You must all be so fed-up with my thickness, but thanks for the patience. Sorry to say it folks, but I'll probably be back...

    ReplyDelete
  39. Gut, use the 3rd image to make moonshine ;)

    ReplyDelete
  40. Clodagh, did you get it? It's "another word for joint." I tried the urban dictionary but that didn't have it. Found it when I googled the words above.

    ReplyDelete
  41. Level 2.....you might make whiskey in the 3rd image

    ReplyDelete
  42. Ty donas although I thought there was another person involved in that band

    ReplyDelete
  43. This comment has been removed by the author.

    ReplyDelete
  44. Now stuck as anything on 14.

    ReplyDelete
  45. Ooh - found 14 when I realised what film was hinted at in the second picture.

    ReplyDelete
  46. This comment has been removed by the author.

    ReplyDelete
  47. 18 - I finally was able to separate the images and got the movie title - but that answer doesn't work either

    ReplyDelete
  48. nope Jon, I'm being thick obv. but still can't get 18, any more clues?

    ReplyDelete
  49. Any hints for level 16 please?

    ReplyDelete
  50. remember, no 'The' at the START of the band names for level 18.....and yes, all bands are real :)

    ReplyDelete
  51. annaby, don't use the first "the"

    ReplyDelete
  52. Need a clue for 13 - the pixelly pic

    ReplyDelete
  53. Enjoy, be sure to use the whole name spelled out

    ReplyDelete
  54. For level 13, they are all the same thing.

    ReplyDelete
  55. annaby, it's "pluralandtheplural"

    ReplyDelete
  56. Level 13 again - they are actually all the same personage.

    ReplyDelete
  57. 13: on the second row, 5th from the left....can you think who that looks like? The rest will fall into place

    ReplyDelete
  58. For level 13, the fifth one from the left on the second row should give you the hint for what all of them are.

    ReplyDelete
  59. Oops, you got there before me Jon!

    ReplyDelete
  60. Still struggling with level 16.

    ReplyDelete
  61. lol - I didn't use "and the" because it was in the rebus - oh never mind :D

    ReplyDelete
  62. Yeh - just got 16 - my one-time favourite band!

    ReplyDelete
  63. For 16, use a collective name for the ships

    ReplyDelete
  64. This comment has been removed by the author.

    ReplyDelete
  65. Stuck on Level 7. It seems to be too late for me. A hole? A golfcourse? A flag? Gras? Green? Heaven? Trees? A bit of sun?

    A bit of sun would be a cool bandname, that's for sure.

    ReplyDelete
  66. sorry Annaby....it's hard to get these things just right....we debated long and hard whether to use that level or not...glad you got past it ok :)

    ReplyDelete
  67. Buecher - for level 7 your fifth guess was right for the first part of the name.

    ReplyDelete
  68. I was doing really good, but came to a screeching halt on 14. Can someone give me a clue about the 3rd image?

    ReplyDelete
  69. having trouble with the first image on lvl 20

    ReplyDelete
  70. buecherverschlingen, a green is correct

    ReplyDelete
  71. @gut - the 3rd image is an instrument

    ReplyDelete
  72. Bone Gut - sometimes they can be tubular.

    ReplyDelete
  73. Level 7...you said the answer to the first clue, it's that part of a golf course all right....

    ReplyDelete
  74. I have no clue for level 17. I know the names of the pics but ....

    ReplyDelete
  75. for 17, googling the images, or naming them, will help

    ReplyDelete
  76. for 17 - use just the first part of the name of the first pic

    ReplyDelete
  77. Ah, level 17 - just use the names you know for the pictures, and take off the second part of the first one.

    ReplyDelete
  78. for 17, googling their names should help too :)

    ReplyDelete
  79. 17 - first image - another name for rocks
    middle image is a place or worship

    ReplyDelete
  80. Ohh. And i was just trying to be funny. Now i don't now how i couldn't see that. Thanks!

    ReplyDelete
  81. lvl 20 - a hint on first pic?

    ReplyDelete
  82. I guess I've never heard of the level 14 band. Thanks to google, I figured it out

    ReplyDelete
  83. annaby, for 20, find a synonym for valley

    ReplyDelete
  84. I never heard of the band in 17 either ;)

    ReplyDelete
  85. I know I have number 2 right and it says it's wrong
    SPOIcrosbystillsandnashLER I tried without the "and" in it too and it still takes me to the error page.

    ReplyDelete
  86. that should work sweetgrass

    ReplyDelete
  87. Oh for heaven's sake - if I had taken the 2nd pic at face value, I would have had lvl 20 at the start

    ReplyDelete
  88. it's the correct answer all right Sweet...try it again and be careful of typing

    ReplyDelete
  89. Thanks again Cawulla and Jon - that was a lot of fun!!

    ReplyDelete
  90. OK Y'all, now that I have sent my daughter some cash, back to the game. Stuck on level 13. I know they are presidents, but cannot find the exact name of the band. Clues?

    ReplyDelete
  91. 19 is ridiculous! The first character is related to Mario. I googled the rest.

    ReplyDelete
  92. Aitch - presidents of.......

    ReplyDelete
  93. I'm stuck with a rolling pin and some diamonds.

    I guess i'm going to bed now and give it another try tomorrow (or shall i say today?) with hopefully a lot of hints till then.

    ReplyDelete
  94. gotta remember to leave out the the! Tks, Clodagh.

    ReplyDelete
  95. 19....great name for a band (again, I never heard of them before)

    ReplyDelete
  96. for the record, I never heard of 13,14,15

    ReplyDelete
  97. 13 are a great favourite of mine, 14 and 15 I found purely for the sake of making this game ;)

    ReplyDelete
  98. Loved the Pentatonix Jon - thanks for the game!

    ReplyDelete
  99. buecherverschlingen Think of another name for diamonds.

    I am stumped on 19

    ReplyDelete
  100. all these people talking about level 19- I'm struggling with level 1- can't help thinking about a depressing band from Manchester but its not them

    ReplyDelete
  101. finally! cheers jon, decent quiz..anyone need any help?

    ReplyDelete
  102. Enzed - the first picture shows something obvious, but spell it like a bubble-centred chocolate bar.

    ReplyDelete
  103. enzed..I thought the same ;) the 'pointer's' part of the answer, not just telling you where to look

    ReplyDelete
  104. the penny drops! ThanksRB

    ReplyDelete
  105. M Dahlberg - for 19, I thought the first picture reminded me of Mario (heard of but never played it), so I googled him and searched images for one that matched, found his name and added 'the' to it in the search bar. That brought up the whole band name.

    ReplyDelete
  106. Finished! Thanks for all the hints. Thanks Jon and Cawulla for this fun riddle . Love the vid :)

    ReplyDelete
  107. how could I NOT know lvl 7? :P love love love ~~

    ReplyDelete
  108. I have been stuck on 18 for 45 min googling till my fingers are bleeding..and the comments so far haven't helped... :-( I think the end of it is Spoandthepopesiler but haven't a clue as to what the first two photos are - any better clues for me? :```-(

    ReplyDelete
  109. LT, not the "popes" but a familar way of saying father

    ReplyDelete
  110. 18 spoiler

















    the first 2 images come from a movie called Mama!

    ReplyDelete
  111. LT ..i had the same problems, googling the top half of the picture would be more helpful, it's a film i've never heard of..and it's not 'pope' but the Italian for Father(s)

    ReplyDelete
  112. O.
    M.
    G.
    seriously? and I remember them good grief got 18 now thx

    ReplyDelete
  113. 16
    After googling the 3 images together, I keep getting the wrong answer. I get results about state parks or restaurants.

    ReplyDelete
  114. I wound up using my snipping tool to google the top images for 18 (and some others) - I don't know if there's an easier way ...

    ReplyDelete
  115. @gut - the first pic is a group of navy ships which is called a ____

    ReplyDelete
  116. there isn't Annaby, google images is your friend with this type of game....and help from comments too ;)

    ReplyDelete
  117. Finally finished - 18 was horrible for me to figure out

    Thanks for the game :)

    ReplyDelete
  118. Bone Gut..16 are a big band not unknowns..the collective noun for the ships + elm,oak,mahogany + the 2nd part of world's most famous burger

    ReplyDelete
  119. POP! Once I found the right name, I remembered the band

    ReplyDelete
  120. Squadron, fleet, armada, task force, flotilla, convoy, carrier, vessels

    ReplyDelete
  121. 2nd one of those Bone Gut is the first syllable of the first word.
    Fleet- / -

    ReplyDelete
  122. Done! Thanks for all the hints guys! Fun game/riddle!

    ReplyDelete
  123. OH derrr me. LOL
    I was thinking of synonyms for the images

    ReplyDelete
  124. well that was fun- once I solved the first one! Pentatonix were pretty good too

    ReplyDelete
  125. Oh my gosh, i'm out. Or done. I liked it, thanks :)

    ReplyDelete
  126. Did you get 20 MD? American bandleader from the 30's and 40's- 3 words

    ReplyDelete
  127. 20 is probably one of three possibilities: gl*** mi**** b***, ele***** li*** orc******, or st*** mi**** b*** but I'm probably wrong.

    ReplyDelete
  128. for level 14, don't use the name of the actor for the 2nd pic, name the film.

    ReplyDelete
  129. Gut, combine your first possibility with the last word of your 2nd

    ReplyDelete
  130. help on 14 please

    school, brad pitt, sleigh bells?

    ReplyDelete
  131. i dont know the movie..lol

    ReplyDelete
  132. for 14, school, name of movie, bells

    ReplyDelete
  133. the name of the movie is a number, starring Brad Pitt, Morgan Freeman

    ReplyDelete
  134. Ok, I got 14. first picture is obvious. I think the middle picture has to do with a movie title, third pict is obvious

    ReplyDelete
  135. thanks Donas.. I had a POP

    ReplyDelete
  136. tishtosh, the man is an US president, then just name what you see in the 2nd pic

    ReplyDelete
  137. Thanks for the hint donas. Another riddle complete!
    Thanks cawulla and jon for a great riddle

    ReplyDelete
  138. Thanks Donas, I put J-ff-----star---- but got page not found.

    ReplyDelete
  139. ps. Donas 727 I didn't use capitals

    ReplyDelete
  140. Well, for 20 I kept trying Electric Light Orchestra... over and over again. Should have concentrated on the brand of beer!

    ReplyDelete
  141. tishtosh, try an earlier name for the band

    ReplyDelete
  142. Thanks Cawulla and Jon .. Great Fun!

    ReplyDelete
  143. Thanks Donas 727 got it now :)

    ReplyDelete
  144. Arghh - I know level 2 is CSN - cro**y, st***s and n**h but no matter what way I type it, it won't take. Advice please?

    ReplyDelete
  145. janet, don't know if it will help but don't put spaces between words

    ReplyDelete
  146. Tishtosh - thank you - that was it!!!

    ReplyDelete
  147. Enjoyed that, thanks to the game makers

    ReplyDelete
  148. Thanks Jon and Cawulla. That was wonderful fun. Never heard of a couple of those bands.

    ReplyDelete
  149. Thanks - was a great game. Saw a lot of them in concert - tho not Glenn Miller...

    ReplyDelete
  150. Great game boys but...I beg your pardon...5 was WAY too hard especially for non-native English speakers.
    I've never heard that alternate term for a 'spliff' in my life before.

  153. Thanks Cawulla and Jon. This one, for the most part, was easier for me than some of your previous games. But when I was stumped, it took forever to figure them out. Even with the comments and hints posted, they were difficult.

    For #18, I felt the Popes' photos were a bit misleading. I think photos of simple ministers would've sufficed.

    Thanks for all your work!

    ReplyDelete
  154. Stuck on Lvl 12. Thought it was "-- churchmice" but they look more like rats. Which doesn't help - makes it harder.
    Is the first image an explosion (yes - clearly it is!) but what of? Fireworks? Nuclear? (don't think so) ?????
    Stuck!

    ReplyDelete
  155. Ashley. Lvl 12. That explosion made a noise....it went BOOM

    ReplyDelete
  156. Ashley - the bomb goes b....m and the town hall has rats


    SPOidon'tlikemondaysILER

    ReplyDelete
  157. Stuck fast on 13. I've found three different bands but none of them seem to work.

    ReplyDelete
  158. Okay, found it - don't abreviate the end of the band's name for 13. Never heard of them but they chose a longassed name!

    ReplyDelete
  159. Aha - thanks Momma Cyndi

    ReplyDelete
  160. Never heard of 14 either

    Brad Pitt was in the movie 'Seven'

    ReplyDelete
  161. Never heard of 15 either! Good job the name was exactly what the pictures were

    ReplyDelete
  162. geez! Never heard of 17 either! I am so not up to date on music! It is like a Big Empty space in my knowledge!

    ReplyDelete
  163. Would never have gotten 18 without jonthewatch 8/23/14, 3:19 PM !

    ReplyDelete
  164. Everyone should be as happy as the Wallowitz type guy in the video :)

    ReplyDelete
  165. A million thanks Cawulla and Jon. I absolutely loved that.

    ReplyDelete
  166. Level 19, rightmost pic: that obviously looks like a bicycle chainring.
    Well, I know "Jesus & Mary Chain" but there's no Jesus anywhere LOL...

    ReplyDelete
  167. Yes that IS a chainring! Finally made it to level 20. Just had to look up the unusual word for it (remember AE is not BE)

    ReplyDelete
  168. Struggling with 19.
    Googled mario as suggested above and have come up with "mushroom head the rain gear" ....

    Oh dear.

    ReplyDelete
  169. Got it. The character is not called mushroom head - lol.
    It's also another word for a cog.

    ReplyDelete
  170. I must be stupid. Cannot figure out level one.

    ReplyDelete
  171. 1st level - what is that red thing called? And the man is a black-----.
    Remember to adjust spelling for the 1st word.

    ReplyDelete
  172. Also - thanks again Tishtosh - do not put any spaces between the words.

    ReplyDelete
  173. Cyberjar88 - a rebus uses pictures in a word play. The first part is also an English word for what you use with a bow. If you know the English for a man who works metal with an anvil and forge. Now say the two words out loud and quickly - it should sound like an American rock band

    SPOjaniesgotagunILER

    ReplyDelete
  174. Can someone spoil all the answers? I'm stuck on Lvl 4

    ReplyDelete
  175. Jorge - one of the best bands for live concerts- What do you use the first thing to do? What type of moon is it? What are you when you in the ground with RIP over you?

    SPOsugarmagnoliaortruckinILER

    ReplyDelete
  176. That was a great game, thanks Jon and Cawulla!!!

    ReplyDelete
  177. Great! I had a lot of fun and I have learned some new bands
    (o‿∩) Thanks!!!

    ReplyDelete
  178. Finally finished all the levels, but some of these band names were ridiculous.

    ReplyDelete
  179. on level 15 - seems "Squirrel Nut Zips" isn't a band name

    ReplyDelete
  180. Stuck on 12. Is that 2nd pic supposed to be a specific town?
