Hello , I remember playing this one old game (Maybe not so old) on pc . It was like 3rd person zombie/demon shooter where you just ran around the map shooting those creatures. And you could upgrade each weapon. I remember you could upgrade knife to scythe , boomerang etc. Creatures came in waves and If I remember correctly then last boss was devil. Have been searching for this game for quite a while , please help.


FOUND IT : THE HAUNTED HELLS REACH!

Hey I have been looking for this game forever and I don't know if or how anyone has heard of the name of this but I would love to know. I played this game, I think it was on my windows 97 computer, or windows 95, I don't remember which on we had. It was a 2D game and the layout of the game was just a bunch of different floors with ladders to get to each floor. You controlled your character starting at the bottom left of the screen and you tried to get to the top right. However, there was an AI character who started at the top right of the screen and would run after you and if he caught you it was game over. I think the AI ran as the same pace as you could and I just remember it being really difficult. I thought it was a game installed on my pc, not through a CD but I really don't know. If someone knows, please help me out!

I have a very vague memory of this game but I remember playing it as a kid on the PC, it has something to do with Rome/Camelot and I remember it having like a backhoe and some other varieties of heavy-duty vehicles which were controllable I believe. I know this is not much information but if anyone has any idea it would be much appreciated. Its been in my head for a while and i caanot remember what it is.. Thank you!!

Hey folks!

Stumbled upon this thread and was wondering somebody could help me!

I'm looking for a verrry old 2d game (like windows 95-ish?) where you had to 'guide' a fixed certain amount (100?) of guys(minions?) from point a to point b by giving the first guy orders like drilling downwards or standing still so the first guy would direct the rest to a other way (on platforms)

Searched the internet all night but can't find shit!

Cheers!

Old windows game (probably 90s but not sure) where you play as a tank in 3D, the first level takes place in a city under martial law (no civilians to be seen) at night, you have to fight your way through other tanks and helicopters to reach a certain place and destroy something, you can pick up ammunition and repairs "health", there are also barricades that you must destroy to get through.
maybe

Metal Rage: Defender Of The Earth (1996)

sounds like one of the Lode Runner series, for example

Hi, I've got a game on my mind that I used to play when I was younger, in the early 2000's on the original xbox. What I remember is that you play as an adventurer, who in the beginning is on a plane with a woman, where the plane gets shot down. You wake up in a jungle, & have to find the woman from the plane, fighting, from memory, indigenous people, and monkeys(?). I remember it being a sort of puzzle/adventure game, but that's about all I remember..

Hi!

I'm looking for an old dos game LIKE "the seven cities of gold". Similar gameplay but I think not as popular (I spent hours for searching^^) It should be a bit newer than 7cog (1983) and it was running on dos. I think the map was random and you had to explore it to find villages, our treasures, etc... Are there any other games except "Pirates!" and "Colonization"?
Would be nice to find it out :)
Hmm. There was a kind of sequel called "Heart of Africa" with very similar gameplay released for the C64 in the 1980s, but as far as I know, it was never ported to DOS, unlike 7 Cities in the early 90s. So maybe it's of no use, but here's a vid anyway:

Hi guys,
For ages now im searching the title of an old c64 space planet invader game (not Supermacy) where you could choose planets on a screen and also could land on them and kinda invade them alone like a super soldier... Can't remember much of it, I think I played it in the early 1990s, please help me find it!
Hmm... Maybe the C64's port of Xain'd Sleena, Soldier of Light [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H4Mpll53qFg]?

I'm looking for a game that is very simular to Feeding Frenzy, but is a bit older i think.
You play as a kind of Pike (if i remember correctly).
And you can move to the left and right of the screen, and if you keep going long enough you will be back where you started.
And I remember sharks and jellyfish as some of the enemies, and I think there were bosses at the end of some levels.

Can't really remember more right now. (will update if I remember more)

I've been thinking about this game that I've played a couple of times on the PC when I was a wee lad.
The game was like a platformer-shooter i feel like it had alien characters, there were levels with laboratories and caves. I do recall that there were little power ups, and something about "green containers" is within my head. I cant reacall if it came on a CD that had a bunch of demos on it.

Regards
I'm gonna say [a href="http://www.mobygames.com/game/jazz-jackrabbit-2"]Jazz Jackrabbit 2[/a]? I remember it had a demo for the first couple levels, and there were definitely lab and cave levels. Spaz (the red guy) looks kind-of alien, powerups are there, and green boxes were some sort of ammo. It's a bit of a stretch though.

Another guess could be [a href="http://www.mobygames.com/game/turrican-ii-the-final-fight"]Turrican II[/a] (character not alien?), or some of the Metroid games (wasn't on PC), but that's just wild guesses - The description is somewhat generic, and shooter-platformers were quite popular back then.
