@ZxSat -- There was indeed a game called Stonkers, but this game has become an in-joke on several online Speccy communities. Whenever someone posts a "name the game" question, often someone else replies "It's definitely not Stonkers".
For the record, I got 95%; the only question I got wrong was the Daley Thompson one (I said 2, not 3).
Got 75%. Reasonably happy with that.
I'm almost sure that there were a game called Stonkers. Got that right anyway. But only 50%. I can't believe I said that MM only had 10 rooms.

@zxspecticle:
Crash Issue 51, a quote from Tim Stamper:
"'Knight Lore was finished before Sabre Wulf,' Tim suddenly said. 'But we decided the market wasn't ready for it. Because if we released Knight Lore and Alien 8 - which was already half-finished - we wouldn't have sold Sabre Wulf.":

It's not fair, the Knightlore question cost me the magic 100%.
Urban Myth I'm telling you! - lol
