Old Games you remember playing but can't remember the name of.

[Veagle Tsui]

I played this game before year 2000.
What I remember from it:

-The game is in 3D
-The main male lead was rescued in space(?) in the beginning, this might have been a sequel
-the main guy is bold, might have a eyepatch(?)
-he might be a clone or cyborg of some kind (?) and doesn't have memory

gameplay:
- most of the time you are in some sort of vehicle or plane. The driving of the vehicle is always automatic, you have a target sign that you move around with mouse and click to shoot.
- sometimes it is third person, and u take control of the guy shooting people or sneaking.

some stages that I rmb:
-A stage where he was dreaming, and he was in a jet/plane shooting enemies. You click and shoot with mouse. In the end of the dream your jet/plane fly into the main guy's mouth and he woke up.

-A stage where he is inside a building killing guards.

-A stage where it is first person and you are going through some sort of laser security.

-There is a part where he is on the first floor of a building and guards on the second floor walking around. In order to get to the elevator, he must walk on the same side as the guard on the second floor, so it's impossible for them to see u. So you keep switching left and right between each section to avoid getting seen. If seen the shoot you down

EDIT:
I THINK in the beginning after the ppl rescued him, he was kept in a lab. Then a girl voice was guiding him to escape. He eventually got into a vehicle and escaped. Then the click and shoot stuff
From what I rmb this game is very intolerant, you got to do everything according to the game design or else your character die/lose.


This must be hard to identify haha, this seem very vague but that's all I got. Any1 know?

 

[TagDaze]

if it was for DOS, and discarding shareware, freeware games, then should be

Volfied (1991)

if it wasn't, check out any other Qix variants.

Yes! That was it! Thanks, DR. You're the best.

If anyone can help
It was a game I played about 10-13 years ago, not sure when it was released. You started of with your base which when clicked on moved to a frontal view which looked more like a framed picture than an aerial shot, and as you built new buildings they would appear at this view of your base.

I remember one team being able to make giants i think. You had to choose, what units to build, each time you allowed yourself to make a new unit you were making a choice between that and another unit and you build the building that let you make the unit you wanted. It would then be there seemingly as another feature of this pictureframeesque view of your base. like you built an eerie for dragons and the like

The units had different upgrade paths. I'm not sure if I'm remembering correctly. The units you made could travel out of base. maybe with heros leading them im not sure, it was single units in battalions of 3 i seem to remember. Someone may have the answer, thank you for helping.

I seem to remember the units being 3D

It was fantasy, with magic and all sorts of magical beings it was a strategy game.

And this probably wont be helpful but one of the teams had some sort of tavern directly to the left of their starting base

Any help would be greatly appreciated, desparate to find this game, thanks guys

OS: Maybe Windows 98 or 2000.

The player controlled a meerkat or something similar and it wore a red hat (?) and one of the goals was to collect diamond-like objects.
The maps were sandy or grassy.
It's not Crash Bandicoot.

Bald guy, rail-shooting, third-person-action... must be "Cyberia 2: Resurrection" (1995)

Trying to remember an arcade game from late 80s early 90s, I'm thinking bomb jack and bubble bobble, but to end the level you had to find a hidden spot or object or something and shoot or hammer at it to complete the level. Earlier levels were easy and obvious, but as they progressed the end object was harder to find, any ideas? I remember completing It in the local arcade but can't think of the name... I seem to remember it was a vertical scroller but can't be sure, there where brick or something that you could smash..

Hello all, I am trying again after some time.

Platform: PC (demo)
Release: 1997-1999?
Ages: 7-11?
Genre: Adventure Point and click

Art style: Cartoony, similar to Freddi Fish and other Humongous Entertainment games

Main characters: One man and one woman (but they look like children) They are fictional creatures. May be siblings or a couple.
Playable Scenario in demo: You enter a house where the characters have been burgled in a cut scene and locked in a chest. You must work around in the dark with one match stick to find the key to unlock them. When you do this, they get out and the adventure starts. End demo.

I think the girl character had a polka dotted skirt, but if not, it was like a flared skirt I think.
Possible names (mind, my mind could be making this up): Muffy, Puffy, Muff, Puff

Thank you everyone. I have always wanted to finish the game. My dream to finish Grim Fandango came true haha. I still need to finish Nightlong: Union City Conspiracy

Don't forget to check out http://www.mrbillsadventureland.com/ and http://adventures-index-1998.blogspot.co.uk/ if you can recognise the game cover. Very useful.

Hello!

I don't know if this has been asked before but Im looking for an old FPS game on PC and the only thing I remember is an octopus looking boss where you had to jump inside its mouth and shoot its heart to defeat it.

Edit: I think the mission this was on was in a village and one type of enemy was boars. And one of the weapons you can use is a double barreled shotgun and the gun is placed in the middle of your screen (like in the first doom games).

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I can't for the life of me remember the name of my favourite kids game. I got it around 2008. It had these boy and girl running around adventuring. I think it teaches kids but I'm not sure. All I can remember is the kids by a waterfall scene. For some reason in my subconscious dreams about it I always associate orange with it.

And the game was played on a special game console/controller. (It played on the tv)

Alright, counting on you fine folks for help, as this has been driving me insane.

The game in question came out in the mid-to-late 90's. It's a turn-based strategy game pitting you as the commander of modern military forces against what are clearly Chaos-inspired "fantasy" dark forces. I remember the warriors in particular were clearly inspired by GW's Chaos Warriors. As in, almost carbon copies.

I think the game was by an Eastern-European developer, and I remember it was actually quite challenging!

Any idea?

Hi everyone.

I'm trying to remember the name of a game I played with my brothers in primary school (15ish years ago) on PC.
It's a board game similar to Monopoly where everyone chooses a character in a car. You drive around in an open world style board game map buying properties where natural disasters may occur damaging them. I remember one specific one was "Nessie" would come out of the lake and damage your property. Also I think it was kind of a race as well, yet also competitive to see who gets the most money.
If anyone have any ideas, would really help as I would like to play it again with my cousin's daughters when they're over, as I remembered it was quite and enjoyable.

Cheers

EDIT: I also remembered a character having a monocle and big mustache.

anyone knows this game? googled forever and the best i found was someone else searching for it xD
the description is as good as i can remember myself i played it in german so it isnt an english only thing...rlly would love to play it again.

the map is like a world map without 3d if i remember correct. cant find it under monopoly or game of life sadly

I answered the quoted post some time ago...

Dr. Drago's Madcap Chase (1995)

thanks so much ..i read some pages after him but maybe i skipped your answer

 

[Simon Newbranch]

Thank God I found this forum, hopefully someone is smarter than me and can remember the name of this game.


I can't remember if mobile or console (arcade) , I want to say mobile.


it's basically a colourful platform arcade game like this

http://cdn-static.denofgeek.com/sites/denofgeek/files/styles/insert_main_wide_image/public/0/68//mario-bros-2.png?itok=FSD1dkIK

Where you're stuck in one room or environment and shit is popping out from variety of places and you're just jumping and running around in circles killing those things, with breaks in between each rounds.

Additionally, you could switch characters with different weapons, archer with a bow and arrow, some zombie vomitting i think, dragon with fire, ninja with stars, mage and so on

It was done in a cute cartoon style and shouldn't be older than 3 or 4 years.

thanks a lot

i posted this three years ago, reposting: "Hi, I'm looking for an old game I used to play in the 90's, its intro reminds me of Hansel and Gretel, the witch captures one of the kids, the other one flees only after getting turned into a ladybug by the witch.

You play as the ladybug crawling around in the witch's dungeon(?) and you pick up potions on the way which turn you into different kind of animals.
(It's a platform game.)

Any ideas? Thanks in advance, I've been looking for it everywhere."

Hello people. I am desperate. I am looking for a game I played when I was a little girl on PC. First half of 2000s probably, i found this game on a cd with other game, it was like the ones they give you with magazines, but unless you live in italy you won't know this detail.

Anyway, in the game you pilot an airplane, like the paper planes you play with, and it was very colorful. The tracks you run on were very colorful and made many curves around some bizarre buildings. It wasnt realistic, but the only objective i found was to... Fly on these tracks. Maybe it was a demo, but that's it.
I remember a menu where you could choose different planes (or it was multiplayer selection screen).
Nothing more.

Do you remember anything like this? Can you help me?

Any idea is much appreciated.

Sounds a bit like Audiosurf.
