Dunno about ants, but the only Western game with "realistic faces" that comes to mind was Mad Dog Mccree.

Thank you for your responses but it's none of those games, I even checked every game on the sites you gave me but it's not those either. If i could add one more detail its that the game is in a third person pov, so its like a birdseye view from the top of the game.

I want to find 2 games.Both are mystery/finding games(find clues)

1)This games is about a sister(cousin i think) who is forced(because he did lock her out of the house) by his brother(or cousin) and go around the world to find some hidden messages leading to what his brother wants to find(in the end it reveals to be a sword but some Templar-like people come in and take it from them).They visited places like China and Washington(like white house,Washington monument),France and Britain(Big Ben).I remembered key quotes like at the end of one mission the clue(which is a watch) would say'my name is little Ben,find my brother ) and one time when they visit something like a church the girl asked who is Ra and the brother/cousin joked by saying its rheumatoid arthritis(he said he checked the website www.ra.com)

2)There is this princess who have woken up from deep slumber and realized that most of the world had turned dark due to an unknown force.She then realize the prince(her husband) is missing along with the baby.Turns out that the witch has hypnotized him with something(an apple i think because fairy tales) Then she meets 2 companions(One is a fairy and the other should be a flying dragonor something) along the way.Before the last destination(a mimic of the princess castle) there was a lake that you needed to cross.When you reach the mimic castle everything looked like your(princess) castle,but its just dull and sinister.At the end is a boss battle on who can find things the faster.Once you win,the two companions will take the baby home but the witch turns you into stone.

Thanks in advance

Hi all, help me please.
I can't remember a game i played ten or more yers ago on PC.
It was either RTS (most likely) or RPG. View from the top.
All I remember is search in a forest for some strange blue spheres.
When you activate those sphere you hear a starnge echoed sound.
In that mission you are playing for one character (no team) on a horse.

Also there could be ships in other missions... don't remember.

Hi!!

This game has been bugging me for AGES and I'm trying to prove to my family that I didn't make it up, and lots of googling doesn't seem to help!!
Basically it was a kids PC game set in a classroom.

All I remember for definite was that there was a hamster that I think used to play hide and seek??
And also there was a tricycle race that I think used letters to make you go faster?
And a balloon popping game, which also possibly made you climb up a climbing frame??
I think the "teacher" dude was a hamster??

THANK YOU!!

I'm trying to find this game i used to play round a friends house on their PC.

-It was in space
-there were aliens
-the objective was to move your character across the map and when you reach a wall of the map it would collect that bit of area you crossed then when you have collected a certain amount you would win.
-2D
-if you hit the aliens you don't capture the area.

A top-down cowboy/western game with realistic faces and ants... on PC around 2001 (or before).

How do you know "realistic faces" from a top-down game? Is this from dialogue boxes or the design on the box or something? I'm pretty much drawing a blank on games that fit your description. Also, was the game released around 2001 or do you just remember playing it then, but it may have been released before? Were the graphics rendered in 3D or were they 2D sprites?

Sorry, I don't know, but let me just tell you how monstrously old I feel at the phrase, "It's an extremely old game I played as a kid (around year 2001)"

Was it third person, or was it birds eye isometric?

...Was it Fallout 2?

Hello ! I'm looking for a game, it was a lateral view and the type of gameplay was very similar to "Duke nukem" but graphics were a little bit better.
I remember that many weapons were hidden in the decor, there was some hidden rooms which can be discovered by placing the character neer the wall of the decor....
It's a PC game beetween 1995 and 2002 i think !

If you can find it, i'll be very thankful !

Mention of hidden rooms makes me think Wolfenstein 3D or Blake Stone. Is it either of those?
No it's none of those :/ the game i'm looking for has a lateral view ... And i think it was a shareware ! Any other idea ?
Hrm. Can you explain what you mean by "lateral view"? First person (seeing the game as if you are the character), third person (seeing it as if you're watching the character), birds-eye (from above)...I'm not entirely sure I'm parsing what lateral is in this case.
The same view as duke nukem (2 dimensions) http://vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/dukenukem/images/b/b0/Dukenukem1.png/revision/latest?cb=20080105005302
Ah, a platformer! Alright. I'll have a look.

(Edit: Huh. I honestly am not at all sure...might it be a Commander Keen game? Though I think the graphics in those wouldn't be quite good enough...)
No it's not that .... The graphics were more simple (not pixelised but simple shapes)

Hi, I randomly found this thread searching for other game stuff and thought I'd give it a shot :)

I don't have much to go on (it was so long ago) It was on PlayStation 2, I thought it was called something like Time Shifters or something like that but I may be wrong (NOT Timeshift), my friend and I were playing 2 player split screen, the level started in a submarine that arrived at an underwater city full of bad guys (NOT Bioshock :) player 1 was human and player 2 is a droid of some sort, you start in a room with a lever to open the cargo door and walk out into a room with pillars and double (space like) doors at the end of the room, as you get half way through the room 2 bad guys patrolling come into the room through the double doors and you have to hide behind the pillars, and the last thing I remember is running through balconies dual wielding pistols, I think there was a selection of characters to pick from as well.

Anyone have as idea of what it could be? :) Thanks

"The Dark Legions" an Age of Empires type of game?

It was an android game, remember playing it first in 2010
Pixelated, it was top down but you could see the characters at an angle, it was a turn based war game with colors for each team, goal was to own all the cities, the cities could be used to make more units, random terrain gen, multiplayer included, you could have fog of war, there would sometimes be water and you would need a boat or a battleship to go over it, the u it's like tank and soldier could board them, you could also have AI, each u it had a different attack damage and range to move and attack, each had a health bar, if you could help me find it I would be happy.

Hi, im trying to find this game, i played it on windows 98.

This was a side scroller game(2d).

You started at a some sort of castle and you was a cave man with green hair and green skirt or something else, and if you pressed ctrl he slinged with a club, and at the first level there was ghost with red eyes and if they noticed you they started to being attack you.

If you pressed down arrow x times he started to pee and where he peed there is a mushroom growed and you can jump on the mushroom and the charachter bounced on it to reach higher objects.

There was bosses on the ending of the levels but not sure every level has boss.

There was an enemy at x level it is a black basketballer with purple clothes and he bounced his basketball but i don't remember well.


Thank you!
