Reading the first clue it sounds like something to do with Aladdin, but all the retro Aladdin games that I played in the 80’s and 90’s were all first- or 3rd person fight-or-flight platformers. Not sure if this will work for the challenge.

Maybe MAGIC is the answer? Could the Entelect Challenge 2020 be based on a card game like Magic the Gathering?

In Aladdin, the Genie had a lifelong wish to be set free. Maybe the theme will be escaping or freedom.

That looks a lot like Kitt from Knight Rider.

Not too sure what the challenge will be though, maby something car related ?

Maybe it will be about Yzma the sorceress from The Emperors New Groove.

Why?

  1. The sorceress fits in with the reference to Aladdin’s magic lamp
  2. In the 2000 animated Disney Movie, Yzma is voiced by Eartha Kitt. The KITT surname matches the car in the picture.

Maybe the KITT is related to KIT Harington that will play the role of the Black KNIGHT in the movie Eternals?

I agree - there were Knight Rider games released as well. Given that car could jump and do all kinds of funny things… it makes it a perfect theme for an AI based competition. Race a car around a track based on physics and stuff ans use special abilities to get ahead of your opponents.

I also found this intriguing quote from KITT himself:
