in teh game, you played as a guy who had a helmet on no visible weapon, and had tan colored pants (almost looked like skin color). the enemy was armored guys with large axes, swords, throwing knives, and MAYBE little dragons. your main (and i think only) weapon was some sort of pixelated square that you shot out of your hands.

the game took place in dungeons (the floors and background were made of brick), and the walls had eyes in them that looked around as you ran through. when not in a dungeon, you were running around on platforms with open skies i think. when you beat the game, your character rides away on a dinosaur.

anyone have any idea what im talking about? :[

pretty much medieval game. You could travel by ship from islan to island. In the islands you could build houses for people living there , and some productive enterprices. There was population rising/lowering all the time. You could always trade with recourses you product in you enterprices.

hi guys~

it was this old game for the pc, you were a blue stick figure guy, who could create blocks, and make them disappear.. the blocks were blue also, the blue blocks and the blue guy, were all that were in the game, and it is a platform game also, some blocks you could make disappear, and some were solid, the point of the game was to get to the exit and complete each level....

i really want to play this game again, but no matter what i type in the search bar, i just cant find it..

can you guys help me?

Hi guys!

First of all I wanted to let you know that the idea of this topic an the work you have done, finding all these games is astonishing!!
Secondly. I haven't had the time to look through the posts to see if someone already was looking for the game. Apperently a lot of people have the same problem =)

Now: The game I'm looking for was for PC. I think win95. I remember you playing a little guy in a one collered car. The camera view is from directly above. As for the gameplay: you play against other AI players in teir cars, and must win a race around the map. The map lookes a bit like monopoly. You got some actionpoints, not sure if the points are static or you have to dice them. There are different collered spots you can land on, which trigger some kind of events. I think I remember one being that you could put nails on the track to stop one of the opponents.

Thats about as much as I remember. I really hope that someone knows that game!!
Thanks in advance

Hey Guys,

I can't, for the life of me, remember what this video game was called

It was a chinese, or japanese themed game, you played as a family of asian people ( as far as i remember) trying to escape certain obstacles, and again, as far as i remember, it was a button mashing game for playstation 1

And, to my memory, you play as 1 family member at a time, trying to escape certain obstacles

All i remember is playing as the father, escaping from his office building.

The game had 3D graphics and i think the cover had like a head/volcano thing on it

Any ideas of what this might be??? thanks

I'm looking for a computer game. I played it in the early 90s. You're a stick figure and you climb ladders up and down to get to the door that will take you to the next level. Other stick figures are chasing you as you do this. There's sometimes sticky goo on the ground that slows you down.there can also be teleporting bays that take you to a different place on the screen. The background and the music are aztecy jungle themed.

Sounds like Lode Runner, possibly Lode Runner: The Legend Returns, as that had sticky goo for sure. Haven't played the original so can't comment on that one.

Here's two nostalgic games I have found over the years. The first one Chip's Challenge. A puzzle game where you collect keys and computer chips.

Second one I found today. It's called Interstate 76. You have cars with guns mounted to them. I think you could modify your own cars. Have a school bus with rocket launchers etc. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3JCGZFQZkdc

I advice everyone to check it out. I bet there's more of you looking for this game :)

EDIT: Better scene from I-76 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2iuGgxtkiSE

hey folks! for years ive been trying to remember the name of this game from 8-10 years ago. i beleive it was for ps1. unfortunately i remember very little but i remember the setting is, a man wakes up in a strange place, maybe a ship of some sort, and has no recollection of anything. he doesnt even know who he is. he meets up with this little robot, perhaps named RAD and they move through the game together. he eventually finds out who he is and the robot eventually dies. there is some enemy with him that is trying to kill him. i know at one point he jumps on his elavator. the word blood may have been in the title but honestly i was so young i dont remember. that is everything i remember. any help would be greatly appreciated. thanks!
