The Last of Us – Game Box Easter Egg Explained

the-last-of-us

In The Last of Us at the Ranch House, there is a stack of boardgames with various references on them:

Boardgames at Ranch

I'm aware of what a lot of them are:

  • The Game of Strife (Easter egg for The Game of Life)
  • Tasker (Risk Easter egg?)
  • Chess
  • Checkers (not in image)
  • Carcass Quest (Carcassonne Easter egg)

The only one I'm not sure of is the yellow box between Chess and Carcass Quest

Does any one recognize what game is this box referring to?

Here is a closer picture:

This is an Easter Egg that is directed towards the game Jak and Daxter, a game also by Naughty Dogs. While the character pose is blurry, it closely resembles the pose that is shown on the PS2 cover art. The Easter Egg also makes an appearance in Naughty Dog's Uncharted 4.
