Since NerdKid started guessing, I'll guess at the release of a Ski simulator videogame.

I'm thinking more like a desert where you might get into trouble if you saw a mirage ... though I can't get in the ‘less pertinent nor totally kitsch part’ ... some scramble of the name of the location?

Venice, Italy? Because they might have to move to the mountains if sea level rises? And maybe it could be considered not very pertinent and a little kitsch today, because you can see the alps from Venice? Am I asking a lot of questions?

A clue for all.......... Yes, the answer is a country. Remember, a word is just a series of letters and within the 'CLUE' are two good clues.

This quiz was good to see that a lot of people are still trying this challenges. From the last quizzes I was under the impression that only NerdKid and I were still playing. I guess we're just more chatty than everybody else.

Yes PotatoBoy, with not having a record of how many are looking at a quiz or challenge in this case, it is difficult to judge. But different people often solve them so there are probably more than we know. I think 'skumpy' did a good job on this one.

That was my first comment on Jetpunk in my 5ish years of being here. I've been looking at the challeneges for a while (and theyre awesome fun, thanks Malbaby!) but they're always either too hard or someone solves it before I get a chance to look at it.
