Line 84:
* Averted in the ''Riddle of the Sphinx'' video game, which has nothing to do with this old trope except the name.
* Shows up in the [[Unexpected Gameplay Change|Unexpected Text Adventure]] section of ''[[NieR]]''.
* Played with in [[Monster Girl Quest]]. As part of a trial to be [[Engagement Challenge|eligible to marry]] a [[Our Dragons Are Different|dragon]], a Sphinx gives this question, and it is lampshaded by Luka how almost everyone knows the answer to this question and that it's anticlimactic. {{spoiler|The riddle's true purpose is to illustrate that any monster and human romance will be a [[Mayfly-December Romance]] and to make the trial taker aware of this fact and its implications.}} Note that if Luka answers, "Me!" the Sphinx accepts that as correct, as Luka is human.
