I already have mine written down and everything - but I want to solve yours first.

Except I can't, I've been staring at these for half an hour and nothing. :(

Maddening.

I keep thinking it’s either some sort of Rock Paper Scissors pun or the beats refer to music.

I don’t want to help with my one too much. I’ve been waiting a whole year to say it so won’t give the game away just yet.

For the square beats circle beats angles one, don't pay any attention to the order they're in, nor their relationship with each other. Just literally visualise what I've described happening and think to yourself what another way of describing it would be...

Well done Ksub for getting Alex’s!

——

I promised a clue so I shall deliver.

Riddle-No Map For Hero’s Arse

Clue 1
Spoiler: show
the first two words are the most important. Get that and then think of the games in that series and it’ll come to you

What bothers me is that I can already tell you've put a lot of thought into this but I'm just too dumb to solve it! :lol:

Haha.

You’re probably thinking too obtusely. It’s very simple.

Think about a game title/series which corresponds to the first two words. It’s an absolutely massive series and system seller!
