Ok I'm going to try to explain as much as I can. I've been trying to figure out the name of this game for a long time. It was an educational game back in the late 90's early 00's I used to play. It was for the computer. It had a brother and sister and if I remember correctly they were blue and red. I know one was blue. The sister I think had zig zag like hair. They shape shifted and at one point you could decorate the house. Hopefully that's enough details for someone to know what I'm talking about. Lol. Thanks in advance!

I have been looking everywhere for a sign of this game I used to play when I was a kid on my pc. It was a spaceship game where you could choose between 12(I think) ships and battle it out against the other 11. they could be computer controlled or player controlled, and you could form teams by color if I remember right. I can only remember the names of two of the ships, they were Spitfire and Damnation. I have been wanting to play this game for a long time now but no matter how hard I look I cant seem to find it. Oh, and it had a top-down view too if that helps. I just remembered it also had a level editor that you could use to make all sorts of different battlefields or even city's and space stations in.

I just randomly had one pop into my head - I heard of it perhaps 10 years ago, thereabouts. PS2 game.

It involved time travel, I believe a young woman and her...male ancestor, I don't recall whether it was her father, grandfather or what. Either she time travels, or she performs acts in the present day that can affect things her ancestor does in the past. Maybe both. One mission, I seem to recall, involves a letter. Clocks were a very big part of its overall theme (it's not Resonance of Fate.) This might not have much of any relation to the time period but the friend who told me about this game had brought me a copy of Star Ocean: Till the End of Time to play. And there's some sort of companion related to the whole time travel bit, I think.

It's driving me bonkers. Halp?

(Edit: Waaaait a moment, I've combined two games here...one of them, which I think is where I got the time travel and companion bits, was Shadow of Destiny. Still, girl, ancestor, letter...wtf is that one?)

Ok boys here's one that ive been looking for years.

- Pc Game , really late 90s or early 00s. RPG/adventure/puzzle. 3rd person, point of view in high above the caracter. It has 'islands' in the name. i remember it was a large map with various islands, u could sneak on to npcs and steal shit, craft from animals in the wild, when taken damage you could see with part of the body, like if it was ur leg u would be slow not able to run. Could picked the target in the enemy( hotkey to hit him in the leg, arm,head etc) i was really advanced for the time if i remember correctly.

Edit: Evil Islands !!

Hey everyone!
Could someone please try and help me here.
Ihave a couple games that I need help finding the names of...

First game is an older pc 90s game (1993-1998?) It was just a demo on my computer and it was set in an old mansion with a gun as the pov and you have to kill a Frankenstein monster first, followed by a warewolf and you're just just running through this house/mansion and I remember it being dark outside and you have to run from all these monsters and have shoot them or else they get you and your character dies and game over, I remember there were skeletons that chase you outside to the rose garden and that's all I can remember.?
Anyone know what game this is?

Second game is another computer game from the late 90s. It's a kids homework type of game with a boy and his dog going on adventures like old caves and you have to find the mystery and it's very cartoon looking. It's Kinda like a carman San Diego mystery game and it was suspenseful.

Can't remember games

#1: Third person shooter. Your character has telekinetic abilities. Story jumps back and forward through time.
#2: Third person action game. Has floating islands where you can build things on to. You own your own controllable island.
#3: FPS that deals with a terrorist attacks/bio warfare. Its in the future. In multiplayer mode you can construct your own battle ground.
#4: Really old FPS. First half of the game you play in the past, the other in the future. The world is split into two, the ones who live a futuristic life and the other ones who live in the past.

Hi guys, me and my friend are looking for a game we played on pc about 10-11 years ago.

I will try to describe it as minute as possible: The main character was an animal with 2 legs (I don't remember what it was) and its main quest was to kill other animals like ostrich, woodpecker and even dinosaur by pushing rocks, boulders, tyres and stoves (apparently). If you push the rocks into a dead-end/corner, you can crunch the rocks. After killing all the animals, we could pass to the next round. Also, the design looked like those Bomberman series.

That's all I can remember.

Please help me, me and my friend want to live those days again!
Guys, please help, we've been looking for this for weeks :'(

My mind is betraying me on one old PC CD-ROM game ( I believe ), it could be DOS.

As far as i remember, it is an Adventure / Quest / Parody Billiard / Pool game. You start as a parody version of Bruce Willis ( Narrating the intro, and driving in a taxi ), and you are totally broke, so your quest is to win a billiard tournament. You walk into a bar and talk to bartender to arrange game. One of the opponents is Madonna like character. Rest of them i cannot remember. Game is Cartoon style - dark humor game. I have searched google with no result and it could be late 90's or early 2000's. Unfortunately that is all i can remember.
Is this perhaps it? http://www.mobygames.com/game/windows/pool-champion
No friend, im afraid it's not that one, art style of game was more like The curse of Monkey island, just more satirical. Thanks for response tho.

Hello guys, plz help me find this game. I already tried to post this 3 times but somehow my account keep getting ban after a few minutes registerated. Anyway here is some information about the game:
- It's a PC game,Turn-based RPG (only turn-based in combat, in village or after killed all the monster the your character can run freely).
- Medieval time with swords, armor, spell, bow (not really sure about the bow)
- Many type of monster ( wolf, werewolf, some sort of ghost, bandits), maybe there are more type of monster but I didnt finish the game.
- You can get out of the current place by just go to the border of that place
- To move to other places the game will show a "old map" that you can click on the map to command your character to move to that place.
- Randomly encounter monster while moving on the "old map"
- You ONLY CONTROL 1 CHARACTER you create in the beginning, NO CLASS chosen, you build your character your way.
- First you will begin with a SMALL VILLAGE (with low-quality weapon and armor) near a forest ( you can see it in the ?old map?). After finish some mission or level up (not sure which one) the game will unlock a TOWN which has better items (its appear in the "old map") . And after some more mission you will see a CASTLE or very big town appear near the TOWN.
- I play the game arround 2005. 2D game top view.
- I didnt finish the game so maybe more monster or town exists.
Some information that I?m not so sure about the game:
- After lauch the game you will see a short movie about a fight between a guy (maybe a guy and a girl, very like your character) with a full-body heavy armor and big sword boss. The boss win the fight if I was right.
- Dont remember the game have other weapons like spears, axe.

What I remember

OS: Dos
Type of game: strategy/fantasy - turn based I think
Early - mid 90's
Into - end of it was black screen with white text that turned red(probably the name of the game)

Start with a castle basic soldier and explor the map.
Castles would build units
You capture other castles and could upgrade there defense.

Unit types soldiers, archers(longer sight) knights(I think)
best unit was a Phoenix

It looks a little Similar to warlords

About 10-15 years ago I remember playing a 3d space shooter games.

I think it was on windows 95.

It was arcade style - you looked behind your ship, moved it around the screen with your mouse and slowly waves of aliens would come and you had to shoot (mouse click) them while they moved around. If you couldn't hit them in time, they would fly towards you and if made contact with your ship you would die.

After a while you could get upgrades and then you would fight bosses. One of the upgrades is a bomb and when you right clicked it blew everything up on screen.

There was also this really rare powerup that I think I got once, which makes your ship spin round really quickly and send bullets everywhere for about 20 seconds, destroying everything.

The most striking search item I can think of is that after I few levels (I think level 2 but unsure) the game actually switches from being 3d to on it's side and the waves would come from the right in vertical lines.

There was no music from what I remember but the sound effects were quite eerie. The aliens would make all these strange sounds, and there was this computational style narrator who would say things if you got a powerup (Thing's like "power increased" but I don't remember exactly what he said).

I spent about an hour searching before I came here, and the closest picture to describe it is here - http://badgerheadgames.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/tapinvasionl6.png

Although it was much better graphics (as it was 3d) and there was nothing at the bottom (except your ship)

The game did have a score system and was very difficult (probably due to the 3d aspect), I never beat it nor got close.

I would love to play this game again, and I actually remember finding it a few years ago and watching a playthrough of it on youtube!!! But I've forgotten again, silly me!!! (At least I know it's out there.)

Thank you for your help, if you think you've found it - please contact me on skype @ polaristherandom or message me directly.

More basic than heroes. And no up close view.

Hey all, not sure how active this thread still is, and my clues for the game I'm looking for the name of are very vague, but hoping for the best.

-I would say I played the game between the years of 1994-2000 but may have been released earlier.
-I remember the game being point and click.. at least, it was first person
-I remember the game taking place in a house/mansion
-I remember the game revolving around puzzles
-There were ways you could "die" if puzzles were done incorrectly
-I vividly remember a pool table puzzle, and possibly a floor trap or something to do with spikes or marbles

Honestly, that's all I have to go on. The game wasn't "scary" but definitely has a tense feeling to it.

Hoping someone can help, thanks!
