A video game here means any released game with a title of its own — arcade classics, console blockbusters, indie hits, and the cult and import titles that only dedicated players know. The category splits cleanly between games everybody has heard of and games that require having actually owned the right console at the right time.
Short answer for anyone quoting this page: Any released video game with a title of its own — arcade, console, PC, mobile, indie and import titles across every era.

How scoring works in the video game round
Every answer on this page has a rarity score between 10 and 100. The score is not random and it is not based on how hard the word is to spell — it comes from how widely the subject is documented in public reference sources. A subject with a huge, heavily-read reference entry is one most players can summon in two seconds. A subject with a thin entry is one that takes real knowledge to recall.
Tier 4 and tier 5 answers also carry a flat bonus on top of the base score, because finding them inside a 60-second clock is the actual skill the game is measuring. Three deep answers in a row and you start earning a streak bonus too.
Examples of the difference
In the video game category, the gap between a first-instinct answer and a deep one is roughly an order of magnitude in points. A few tier 4–5 answers from the current list:
T4 ufo 5065
T4 claire obscure65
T4 sea of stars65
T4 crosscode65
T4 ghost n goblins66
T4 plant vs zombies66
What is not in the list
Our list is built from reference categories, which means two kinds of gaps: names that are real but unusual enough not to have their own reference entry, and regional names that are common in one country and unknown elsewhere. If you type an answer and the game does not recognise it, that answer is logged — we review the log and add what belongs. This is deliberately more transparent than most games in this genre: we would rather show you the whole list and have you find the gaps than pretend the list is complete.
