    No on both answers, let me give you a "big" hint: The developer used to be a big name in the game-business (and still is, though not in my eyes).
    The games they make range from very good adventures to almost every type of game that takes place in a certain universe.

    I've guessed the company, but I still have no idea which game this is. And I thought I knew them all :(

    @Morogoth - I LOVE it! You've been tantalizing me with this game that's just on the edge of recollection, and the hints ARE narrowing it down but not actually pointing a big flashing arrow! :)

    Honestly, this can be frustrating, even though I hate, I also LOVE it, you know? And if'n I just had a less-defective hippocampus in my brain, I'd have guessed this game that I *know* I've played by now... :lol:

    That implies licensing for a given 'universe' that already exists; it's not fantasy, so I'm leaning toward Star Trek 25th Anniversary? (it's about 150-200 years before the 'current stardate' of the Star Trek millieu)

    Surely, those clues point to a LucasArts game, no? It's not Outlaws, is it? :hmm:

    Magpie has got it :D It's Outlaws, the Doctor says it in the intro movie when you start a new game.

    Now, I have the power (to make someone guess a game from a quote) :) :

    Stop that, you'll go blind

    It is a LucasArts game, but I don't think it's Outlaws. That's a western, and doesn't really fit the "200 years ago" hint.

    But then again what do I know? :)

    Ziad my bad, I thought the Wild Western age was in the early 1800's, seems I'm off by 50 years.

    It's not Stonekeep, but it does refer to what you're thinking of, so you didn't completely miss. ;)
    Here's a little hint; it's a strategy game.

    @apathetic empath
    It's not Risk, it has a more.. humorous feel to it than most strategy games.

    @Enagonios
    It's all in context (but it isn't an adult game) ;) .

    Here's another little clue; it's a British game.

    Could you be a bit more specific in your hints? Telling me it's a 'strategy' and 'British' game doesn't narrow the field much, for me at any rate. :rolleyes:

    Ultima?
