Hello and welcome to the 156th edition of the Screenshot of the Week!

To start with, congratulations to the winner of the previous contest! NODO55's screenshot from won with 10 upvotes!

Last week's winning screenshot one

To submit a screenshot, simply post it as an answer to this question, but please take note of the following:

  • One screenshot per post, and one post per person, please!
  • Limited picture modifications are allowed, such as cropping, simple filters, and blurring of identifying info such as names, but not adding other images or text.
  • To ensure a fair playing field, please post screenshots you've taken yourself rather than ones you found online.
  • Stack Exchange’s Code of Conduct still applies - so if it would be unacceptable to post normally, it’s unacceptable here.

Also, try to avoid pictures that include spoilers. We want everyone to be able to enjoy this contest, so the less spoilers the better.

How long will the contest run?

We will accept submissions for a week, until December 8, 2025, then have a second week-long period where only voting will be accepted. This is to give every submission, even those posted at the end of the first week, a chance to be voted on by everyone.

After the end of the second week, at the end of the day on December 15, 2025, we will count upvotes only to determine the winning screenshot, which will be featured for a week on the main site's photo widget.

No theme this week

As a reminder, we're always accepting suggestions for themed weeks, and have compiled that suggestion process into a question of its own. Additionally, there is the hall of fame you can check out that contains all the previous contest winners.

  • I'm confused, when I click on the suggestion process question link at the end (which should go to meta.arqade.com/q/15029), I'm sent to a question about Pokemon Platinum/Diamond (gaming.stackexchange.com/q/15025) Commented Dec 10, 2025 at 9:50

    @HoneyBattery that's a known issue, the question ID is wrongly redirected to the main site and not meta.stackexchange (for reference) Commented Dec 10, 2025 at 9:56
  • @pinckerman What happens if there's a tie (like right now)? Commented Dec 15, 2025 at 16:38

    @Blue-Blimp They're both winners and both screenshots get featured on the main widget. One gets featured for the first week, and then the other one for the second. Here's another time this happened. Commented Dec 15, 2025 at 19:27

The Orowyrm winding around Thrax's tower in the Duviri Paradox in .

basically a giant snake robot winding around a large tower, the top of which glows red and blue

  • Very nice! What's happening here, exactly? Commented Dec 3, 2025 at 10:16

    @Joachim I’ve gotta be honest, I’m not entirely sure :P the Orowyrm is... I don’t know what it is, but we took control of it at the end of the Duviri Paradox quest, killed its siblings, then sent it at Dominus Thrax's (the antagonist of the quest) tower, at which it wound around it, as seen in this cutscene. Then we go inside the tower, reclaim the throne, and start the timeloop over, but we make sure to keep ourselves out of it this time. Commented Dec 3, 2025 at 22:37

An image of a tape recorder from a pixel game. The description on the right says: "Used not only to play audio, but also to record. Loaded with a 90-minute tape. Such a small thing, and it has a STEREO SYSTEM, would you believe that?
