This post is part of Sci-Fi Month 2016, a month long event to celebrate science fiction hosted by myself and Over the Effing Rainbow. You can view the schedule here, follow the event on Twitter via the official @SciFiMonth Twitter account, or with the hashtag #RRSciFiMonth.
I’ve never done a post like this for Sci-Fi Month before, and I’m so excited to share it! You may have seen those quizzes on websites like Buzzfeed, where you have to guess film or book titles based on emojis. I thought I’d create one for Sci-Fi Month, all based around science fiction novels.
I’d also like to give a prize to the person with the highest score, although unfortunately this will have to be limited to UK only. However, if you’d like to take part just to see if you can get it all right, then you are more than welcome! To enter, please send your answers to rinnreads[at]gmail[dot]com, with the subject ‘SF Emoji Quiz’, and make it clear if you are definitely entering the giveaway.
The person with the highest score at the end of the month will win these two books provided by Angry Robot:
Question 1:
Question 2:
Question 3:
Question 4:
Question 5:
Question 6:
Question 7:
Question 8:
Question 9:
Question 10:
Question 11:
Question 12:
Question 13:
Ooh this looks fun! Great idea! I’ve got some of these worked out but there are a few that are stumping me lol. I might have to cheat and do some Googling. Seriously though great post!
Thanks, Greg π
what an interesting concept. I am having a hard time guessing them though.
I’m glad it’s a bit of a challenge! π
Ooh, this is a fun idea! Some of them I don’t actually know, but I do like a challenge from time to time π
Good, good!
This is a totally new and amusing idea, although – up to now – I think I’ve recognized only 3 titles, so I’m not feeling very knowledgeable… π π
It’s worth trying the others, nothing to lose – you can always email me if you want to know whether you’re right or not π
I will, thank you! Meanwhile I will try and see if I can come up with a few more titles on my own, before giving up the struggle π
I’ll look out for your email then π
Hallo Rinn! π
I know the answer to No. 3! π It took me half a second to realise it, too. lol
And, No. 8! Ooh boy.. those are clues if people read my blog or did I not disclose No. 8… interesting!
Feel free to email me your answers if you want to check them π
This is such a cool idea! I feel like I’m completely stumped with most of them haha. I’ll have to sit down and figure this out when I have a bit more time I think. So cool!
