| Can you add a few more alternatives my score was reduced by putting hungry hippos laser quest and rubik cube |

| Great quiz! Can you please accept the plural of the "D" letter answer without the "e" in the pluralization, since M-W and others says that both spellings are correct? Thanks! |

| Is Army Men the actual name of the toy, cos it wouldn't accept "Army" on its own (I suppose that would make it too easy :( ...). I'm sure I've seen rubik's cube spelt with an X though, which was what I was putting and it wasn't accepted. |

| Could you please accept Hungry Hippos? I have never heard it referred to as anything else, maybe its a location thing. |

| Considering it's named after Ernő Rubik, there is no reason to accept "Rubix". |

| It didn't accept hungry hungry hippos, put it in three times. also, view master is also called viewfinder? I put toy soldiers. This quiz is okay, but there are many variations of these names. You might specify that it only accepts the manufacturers name. |

| I used to look at He-Man stories through the Viewmaster all the time when I was a little kid. |

| Ah Hungry Hungry Hippos, the most violent game of my childhood!
Also maybe accept Laser Quest as an alternative answer? I don't know if that's an uncommon term for it, but certainly what I know it as. |

| Should have included Happy Fun Ball. |

| Could you accept laser quest. Really wondering why the hell it wouldn't work. Also, I used to love Knex. I tried spelling it Knect. |

| I'm glad I'm not the only one who didn't get the three I didn't know, as they are the least guessed. That being said, I'm surprised at how few people have guessed the ViewMaster. I spent many hours looking through those as a child. It brings back a lot of good memories... |

| Just wondering if it was the same game, but to be technical, "ice skates" would be wrong because they aren't exactly a game or a toy. |

| I tried "green army men," "little army men," "little green army men," "green soldiers," and "little green soldiers" before finally giving up. |

| Can you accept Hungry Hippos as it doesn't have the second 'Hungry' in the UK? |
 | littletyke: | Feb 11th, 2013 at 17:29 GMT | | 8 points |
| "army" and "army soldiers" should also be accepted for "A" |
 | MrEnglishman: | Feb 11th, 2013 at 17:29 GMT | | 6 points |
| Another Brit-centric comment - the "P" toy we would call a windmill. And from my childhood the "A" were known as "Airfix soldiers". |

| You might also want to accept "lazer tag", since that's an alternative spelling under which the game has been marketed for many years. |

| I had no idea what Go was, but thankfully I decided if I made a game I would have called it Gomboli, so I figured maybe they did too. I had some spare time after I realized the hamsters were not going to be called Zoomers no matter how badly a younger me would have wanted them. |

| could you accept 'etch a sketch' cos its the same name but without the hyphons |

| Could you accept Army Soldiers for Army Men? Tried that for ages to no avail. Otherwise, brilliant game, very nostalgic. |

| Please accept 'Viewfinder'. |
