[ENDED]Puzzle giveaway (CONTRIBUTOR ONLY)

Closed
GeorgeMC

Okay, this puzzle ended and we already have a winner (out of 36 entries)! I'll contact him/her shortly to send a copy of Kohan 2, which was the game being given away.
The answers to the questions were:

Q1 - Piazza di Spagna
Q2 - Meiosis
Q3 - Rutger Oelsen Hauer
Q4 - Cumulonimbus
Q5 - Asteroid Belt (Should have made "The" valid as well, sorry for that)
Q6 - The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (I know, I know...it's still not random, though)
Q7 - Stratosphere
Q8 - Goblin Shark
Q9 - White
Q10 - Trinitrotoluene

Hope you enjoyed this little puzzle and thanks everyone for participating!

Here's another puzzle for you guys!
It's not too hard, but some questions can be challenging.
Since I didn't even get a thank you from the last winner of my previous puzzle giveaway, this time there's going to be a >minimum contribution value of $19.80.
This giveaway ends in 3 days.

Contribution needed: $19.80
Prize: You'll have to find out, but it's not a well-known strategy game and maybe it's not worth the trouble...

Please, DON'T GIVE ANY HINTS. It shouldn't be too hard if you google around.
Besides, hints will be given if I feel they're needed and depending on the number of entries this giveaway gets.

Now go and have fun with it!

Here's the puzzle!

Just to say, I'm glad you chose that movie. That scene actually changed something in me. Made me think when i saw it for the first time and still does. Thank you for reminding me ^^

Can you please give us the format for number 5? I don't understand what exactly you want there. There are a variety of answers that could be put there, and the obvious ones don't work.

Give us something to look for in Q5, I'm stuck 2 hours on that single question, I tried every obvious answer, don't know what else can it be. Just a slight kick in the right direction would be nice.

Thanks, but that didn't help^^ Still no idea what any of this means. It's obviously not a planet, but those arrows suggest otherwise, it's not a thing they have in common because I tried everything....too hard compared to the other questions, been googling for the past two hours. I don't care about the game anymore, just want to solve this :D

LOL, kinda feel bad about it. But...let's say it's a bit of a trick question. It's not as obvious as it may appear...

Aww, I hate trick questions, I think I'm gonna have to pass this one, spent too much time already trying to figure it out. Will save the thread though, hope you post the answer (or a hint) sometime. 9 out of 10 still pretty happy with it.

I've got all the others, but the "Work out what random mindset the quiz creator was in" type questions always piss me off. Still, I can see that 30 people so far have worked it out.

Still just having trouble with 6. I've tried all kinds of answers in math, science,and literature but no dice. The other questions are all a bit more descriptive.
