I am looking for the title of a game that I played around 1990. You controlled two characters, one was blue, and the other was a bit taller than the blue one. You had to use each character to finish each level, like make one stand on a trampoline, then have the other drop a bowling ball on the trampoline to bounce him. It was a side view of each level. Please help me relive my childhood!

Hi, I remember playing this platform-game in early 2000's, which had like this "one screen at a time"-based screen movement, kinda like in Legend of Zelda, but sidescrolling. You played as some wizard. It was freeware-version, so there was only one level, and had another character (Merlin I guess) locked. It had pretty descent graphics and soothing music. You collected different coloured gems, which looked like diamonds. Enemies were quite generic, wolves and bees and such. You fought them with staff that had some missile-type spells on it. If I remember correctly, when you got enough gems, a door appeared on some screen as an exit.

I really would appreciate, if somebody would know the name of this game that has been lost from me so many years...

I'm also searching one another game.
I was playing this also in the early 2000's. It was played on one computer as 4 player deathmatch, and was played as different coloured frogs. You were supposed to kill other players by jumping on top of them. It had power-ups (super-jump, super-speed, invulnerability etc..) and few maps, I can remember one being Titanic and other was some kind of a cave.
The game was really fast paced and was graphically kinda simple.
Also, it had lots of blood

I'm searching 4 it

I need help! There's a particular game I've been looking for the past 4 years or so. I remember playing it 10-15 years ago, I don't remember what platform. It involved rts, aliens, dinosaurs, eggs, bases, and it was a war game, defeat your opponent. I'm pretty sure you played as the Dinos, I'd you we're able to play as the aliens, I don't remember. It was also a eagle eye view, like command and conquer, Warcraft, etc.

The only RTS I've ever heard of to feature dinosaurs was Jurassic War

Pretty sure its Nanosaur..

Okay so this is a really really hard request. What I come to you today in search of was a video game i played around 2003ish although its possible it was released earlier. The game's plot was controlling a wizard who used a wand as a weapon that was upgradable and when attacking it threw orbs. The main enemy were these walking mushrooms. I remember the last boss being named Dave. He wore a suit of armor and the map for the boss fight was just a small piece of land surrounded by lava. It was for PC. I can't remember much else about it.

Exactly the 1 I'm lukin 4

I need helping finding two games

2) The second game was also for the ps1 or ps2 I dont think anyone will remember or even know the name of it All i remember was you play as these pill shaped people I guess. They didnt have any arms or legs just feet and hands. You would run around picking up these boxes and place them on this square then break them to make guns, bikes or even tanks.

The game you are thinking of is team buddies on ps1

Hey guys please know that I have searched for this game on google for many, many, years since I played it last. It definately had to be made before 2000, I'm thinking 1998 or around then. It came in one of those shareware/freeware (but mostly shareware and demos) compilations that are floating around from time to time. Well this particular game was a survival/rpg caveman (I think so?!) game. The "camera" was set so it sort of seemed like a side scroller and I believe the game was played in increments of days/time. I also think that you had to gather food and basically just see how long you could survive, a bit like Oregon Trail except you were one character. I remember you were only allowed so many days/time in the demo/shareware version that came with the compilation so I played that demo over and over doing a little better each time. There are so many posts in this thread that I fear I may miss a response to my post, just e-mail me at [email protected] if you have an idea, or here I will look through the posts as well as I possibly can. This was a big part of my childhood and looking to find at least some info about the game.

Also you may have been able to get more characters to join you, forming a party of sorts. This may be incorrect but I seem to remember this...

The only game that comes close to what you are describing is a game called Sapiens that was released on the Atari ST.

Good luck finding it though this game is beyond obscure.

Hmmm it's strange because this seems like a very similar game, almost as if the one you describe was inspiration for the one I played. However, I am almost certain that the one I played was 2d and didn't have the adventure game type interface. And it was definately on Windows OS because I never owned an Atari system.

I think the problem finding the game I played is that it was probably made by an indie developer and it's very possible there was never a release beyond the shareware version that came on the game compilation CD. It was one of those "1000 Games!" CD's and was released somewhere before 2000. If anyone could find a list of those released game compilations I could go through them one by one. I remember the games were separated by genre on it. I've looked for something like that and haven't had any luck.

Sapiens did get an updated PC release in 1998.

[diz01]

i have one please it was around 1985 we had a pc in the classroom that we were allowed to play on if we were good. it was a 2d game with a boy and a girl in, (and i think it had a witch but i am not sure,not sure if hansel and gretel) clues would be written at the bottom of the screen and you had to collect things. i remember a forest in a part of the game, you used a key board too not a joy stick. Long shot i know but i am trying to find it on you tube to show my son. thanks xxxxxx

Ok this game is REAL old I remember playing it on the computer like 10 years ago but it was still a real old game. You are in this house/mansion type place and you play as this guy who walks around the house. You couldn't see anything just the room and maybe some objects in the room, and you could click on View room to see who was in it then you could ask them questions. The whole point of the game was to find a murderer, and throughout the game more and more people would die. It would be someone different every time, and if memory serves it was on a CD with a few other games. PLEASE I've been searching for this game for the last 5 years. Any idea would be much appreciated.

Hi! Maybe you can help me...

I remember that i had a game for ps1 like Mario Kart or Crash Team Racing where one of the character was a little old lady with gray hair and a white kart. In that game you could modify all the kart's units and the characters said set expression during the race...

Thank you!

 

[Jaguarlord94]

i've got a game thats driving me crazy i've been trying to find out what its called and had no look so i hope someone can help me with the description im giving you as its been ages since me and my dad played.

this is a ps1 games i think it is set in a spacestation but im not 100% sure about that you play as 3 playable characters 1 female and 2 men but cant go in the same room as its game over i know that there are two weapons that are a pistol and a bb gun that i think look the same im sure the enemies are zombies or something on the lines of a zombies im almost sure when two characters are in the same room that a monster comes and kills you

I hope this description helps if there is more that i can think of i'll add it and thanks in advance to anyone who tries and to who gets it right

hey guys i hope you can save me

I've been searching the net for hours on end every few months for like 2 years trying to find this old game i used to love.. and i stumbled on here so i hoped one of you remembers it.. i read through like 50 pages of this tread, hoped some one already asked but no luck ;( ..


ok the game was i think for win 98, say around 1994-8, it was a platform game *meaning flat 2d moving just left or right (not isometric or 3d). It was a kind of RTS, where you had these fairly color filled maps, i think alien worlds (varried scenery). The idea is that you would need to destroy some hives (making your own to spawn some kind of minions) which would cause then allow u to "connect" one map to an other (like wormholes) allowing progression in clearing these worlds. I though thr game was a kind of "spore" or "hive" name but searched for so long using those two terms found nothing..

hope that rings a bell, one more thing, i think some of the bases/hives of the enemy reminded me a bit of bees, one base 3-4 mobs hovering around it, and if i remeber each had it's plus or minus. een so god damm long

savvveee me thanks in advance

*edit, im almost certain it was for win98 (compatible with earlier games) and i though it loaded like so many other games of those years the good old dos to load into the game, graphics where pretty nice better then C&C (around the same time line) .. might of been more 2000~ and not 1994-8

 

[THEHITPACK]

I forgot this game where you played as a tank thingie. it was first person and had a live actor commander. The world was going to end and you had to save it. It came out pre 1997. I think it had a name like Morpheus or something it was kinda like Myst but with a tank. Any help would be appreciated its driving me crazy.

Someone asked about a game with a very similar description a few months back, and it turned out to be The Tone Rebellion. Is <link=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Tone_Rebellion>this it?

I remember a game on an old apple Mac that was given to us from a friend back in the mid 90's. It was an educational game with questions (possibly math based?) and a frog, and that's honestly all I remember from it. There were quite a few little kids games (mostly educational, except possibly Lemmings and Snood) on that Mac, so any names from that era that may trigger a memory would help a lot.
