2. Is that what Candy Crush Saga looks like? I've never seen it, but I'll go with it since the picture has sweets in it.
3. Elite
4. Tomb Raider
5. I'm guessing that's Football Manager

1. Pacman
2. Must be Candy Crush
3. Elite! I never got to Elite :-( Though I got damn good at docking :-) Pelago tended to use the automatic option which I felt was cheating :-)
4. Tomb Raider. Blimey, looks a lot less realistic than I remembered it at the time. Suspect the same would be true of Alone in the Dark et al :-)
5. Okay, that has to be Football Manager :-)
6. Manic Miner! Aaaand now I'm earwormed with Hall of the Mountain King :-)
7. And it was all going so well. 7-10, I got nuthin'. Clear demonstration of how my opportunities to sit down with a good videogame have dried up in the last decade-plus. Now if you'd included games the boys like to play: Minecraft, Plants vs. Zombies, Skylanders...
