It sounds like a DOS or Mega Drive rendition of "Rule Britannia," but that doesn't really give me any clues as to what it could be from. So, another complete stab in the dark from me...the first Civilisation game?

You know what? I'm starting to get cocky in my questions thinking they're not that hard. Let's replace that blind test with another, easier one



That being said, Master's assessment is correct : it is Rule Britannia from a game in the DOS era. It is so british, I can only signify that it would be played inside Castle British for Lord British. The answer was therefore Ultima 6.

Since Master was orbiting around the answer, I will allow him priority on the new blind test. Master gets a try before anyone else.

It comes with a price though : Master got two in a row. Therefore he can't participate in the next question.

I guess you could say that! The lore says it resembles a totem pole but I always thought it's some weird evolution of unown!

Keiji Inafune used to be a Capcom guy, I'd have also said Minish Cap (and I suspect Reese's right), but I'll try for the Oracle of Seasons/Ages games as a punt.

They sound very Warhammery, but I couldn't name a game with any certainty. Boltgun?
