Guess the Fictional Location

Go To

Y'know all of those "Guess X Character" games? Yeah, here's one for locations from all over fiction. Rules are pretty similar to other games of its type.

  • They can come from anywhere in fiction, as long as said place is fictional.
  • If a media source is played in one round, it is allowed to be played in the next round.
  • The current descriptor must post a recap of the progress for every new page, and edit that post accordingly with the progress in the page.
  • A player may declare a stump after 24 hours has passed from the last question and its answer. If this happens, the current descriptor reveals their character, and the next round goes to the stumped player.
  • If it's been 48 hours since the last round and there's no new round, anyone except the previous host can host the next round.
  • If a question needs to be replaced because it has already been answered, please do not erase the question. Just add the new question below it. In fact, the act of completely erasing a question is frowned upon.
What counts as a "location"?
  • A location is pretty much any place; towns, cities, forests, States, countries, continents, buildings, rooms, entire planets, alternate dimensions and so on.
    • The location must be fictional, although it can be placed within an IRL location (such as the fictional town Hawkins, which is located within a real country, the US).
    • Fantasy/Sci-Fi worlds as a whole, such as Middle Earth and planets from the Star Wars series and locations originating from myths/legends such as Atlantis and El Dorado can be played.
    • Locations that are Genius Loci (being their own character and possessing sentience) are allowed.
If you have any questions or suggestions, feel free to share them!

Title starts with R-Z?

I'm a little sad that only one person was asking questions in my round, yet as soon as it ended there are lots of people. Was I doing anything wrong?

[up]Not at all. IMO, I think that rounds that go on so long just dry up interest.

No, not counting the word "The". And that’s only the first instalment.
