Uh oh! Okay, so this isn’t the best result you could have gotten, but that’s fine! Some of these games are really, really old and maybe your parents wouldn’t even know what they are so don’t worry! After all, modern games are way better!

Alright! Not bad, you’ve got a good basic knowledge of some of these old games, that’s pretty impressive seeing as most of them are from the last century! It’s important to know about history, if we didn’t know stuff about the things that have happened before we wouldn’t be anywhere as good at making great games nowadays! Why not have another go and see if you can score higher?

Blam! Great work! You’ve scored really well here! You’re nearly the GOAT of the retro gaming world! It seems like you’re secretly pretty retro yourself - not many people would be able to get all of these so well done! We think you could still do a bit better though, so why not have another go and see if you can score 100%??

There it is! Full marks! They said it couldn’t be done, but here we are top of the leaderboard and looking down on all the others who don’t know quite as much as you about these old games! Well done, now you better hurry up and give that Game Boy back to the museum of ancient history - they’ll be missing it! Well done!
