Lock-In Puzzle 3

I just can’t…stop…making…puzzles. Kind of like GladOS, but without the murderiness.

This time it’s a charades kind of deal. There are fifteen games listed below, clued like charades. For instance:

Could be used to make: spear + E-tile + ‘and’ which results in Spirit Island (you may have to sound things out a few times).

Once you figure out the name of each game, enter it into the grid below, one letter to a square—you have to figure out which game goes on which line. If you solve everything correctly, the shaded squares will spell out a final clue whose answer is the solution to the puzzle.

Happy solving!

THE GRID

Each answer above fits one letter to a box going across, one answer per row.
