PLEASE HELP!!!!
I remember a PC game I was playing when I was just a little girl (like, 12-14 years ago) which I'd love to play again. Bad news: I can't remember the damn name! All I remember is that it was a RPG, you kinda had two characters (a boy and a girl), you would sleep in a tend, the graphics were something like the Ultima series (but a bit better I think) and you would find food in trees and search in tree stumps for all kinds of items.
Please help me... I've been searching for this game for almost 2 years now

- 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.

Ok. So what I can remember about this game is this:
1. You can go into a cave lined with Glowing Blue mushrooms that you can occasionally collect and talk to a shy and friendly giant Spider who you have to do a few missions for. In the little water patches in the cave, you can catch really weird fish.
2, There's a snow covered town with Candy Cane trees that has a cafe where you can get hot cocoa daily. In the center of the cafe, there's a hot cocoa fountain.
3, It's an online game that you can access from typing the website's name into Google or something. It's similar to Webkinz and Club Penguin in that you can explore areas by clicking your way around, playing mini games to earn money, talk to other players around the world, and you play as an animal.
4, I can also remember a cool graveyard with a ghost girl who you can talk to and a mission where you have to take some guy'sold rag to clean off tombstones.
5, There was a family owned farm where you'd have to play a mini game to get the eggs from the chickens or something like that.
6, You could go to the moon and do some missions there through a warp panel like thing.
That's about all I can remember about this game. If anyone knows the name to it, PLEASE reply.

hello there, i can't remember a game i used to play about 8 years ago(maybe more) its a match 3 shooter offline(installed on my pc) game where you select a character to play with(all characters are animals, all the characters selection together looks like a beehive, each animal is inside a hexagonal shape when you mark one of them the character's look appears above it), the game-play is like this, the character you selected appears and a random enemy character appears(there's a wall of random length between every-time its different, you can shoot above it to the enemy side) both in a small boats(looks like a kayak and can move right and left with arrow keys)on water, both holding a canon that shoots fruit(like grape,banana...) above each of the characters there's a block or randomized fruits, the objective is the first one to drop all the fruit wins or the one that survives wins, when the battle starts every 1-2 minutes the waters rises and it keeps rising until one character drops all the fruit or the fruit gets too close to one of the characters and kills it.
furthermore the game have power ups like piranhas attack enemy character(if you try to dodge them they follow you until they disappear) or a black cloud appears and strike enemy character with lightning(if you try to dodge it, it follows you until it disappears) or a really strong wind that pushes the enemy character in both directions either left or right, there are few more power ups that i don't remember.
lastly there is something when a bar fills(not sure) all the fruit disappear the screen becomes colorful(like a rainbow)and it starts to rain boxes that give power ups(you have to shoot it to get the power up)it stays for a couple of seconds then it changes back to the way it was.
the camera angle is a 3rd person view where you see both sides(yours and your enemy's).
the background is mostly sea(nature like)
thank you very much for your support, if you know anything please replay.
I'll be patiently waiting.

I remember playing this game about 9-10 years ago. Because I was very young I really don't remember much but I remember it had a kind of dark atmosphere and it was 1st person. I think you were in an appartment like building an some guys would come out of the rooms and I think you shoot them. That's really all I remember. It's a PC game. And it wasn't a browser game because my family didn't have Internet at the time.
REPOSTING BECAUSE I STILL HAVE NOT FOUND THIS!mrmegaminer[games said:]thisk4rl3yw said:I need some help!!
Im searching for this old pc game, I'm pretty sure the kind that's like a CD, disk type thing.
So all i can say is that i think it was like a learning game? And when you first got on it was like da rk with a bunch of firefly lights or something and maybe a tree house?
And the main character was like big eyed, firefly/ly/bug thing. And it might have lived in a tree house thing? There might have also beena way to get to Egypt or something i kinda remember a dude playing the flute and a snake came out odd a pot or something.
Anyway so i wish i could describe more... I have NO memory of my childhood and this one detail is REALLY bothering me!!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7KSvtKAxhAg
& the youtube link is, what i suppose, the game 'treehouse', but that's not it.
the link is 'unavailable', anyway.
i've been searching for this game for years! UGH.
one extra thing i remember about the game is you can click on the snake & he'll animate & say 'she sells seashells by the seashore'
HELP SOMEONE, ANYONE :'(
I re-post this with more details since no one replied me in the past 2 weeksmcabbage0412 said:
Hi the game I'm looking for was on the 101 pc collectors edition and basically you controlled little turret type machines that colored the battlefield. It was a variety of colors and shapes you could choose from. But I can't think of the name. It had an outer space theme and the objective was to color as much as possible. You can fight against the computer or friends really fun past time. Please help! Also it could be up to like four teams at a time maybe more. But remember little objects you can place basically shot colors in a radius around the object depending on what you build and you color color color. Thank you
Hey there!
I'm searching for a paticular 2D-Retro-game that I've played with my sisters around 1995-2002
here's a poorly drawn picture
http://www.directupload.net/file/d/3790/2n2etsme_png.htm
I remember these things:
- you could play 1vs1 against a friend on one PC (Windows 95, 98, ME) and choose a red or blue "ball", which was your "character". The goal was to shoot your opponent down a few times
- The game was in side view
- you could choose different fighting-arenas
- You could jump on different plattforms in that arena
- I think it was in a Christmas-Theme - the "balls" had a christmas hat (Santa hat)
- There were several weapons you could pick up, like a rocket launcher (or even a jetpack)
- There were Propellers (see picture bottom) that pushed you away if you got to close to them but you could also get through them if you had a good momentum
- I think in the main menu there was rudolph the red nosed reindeer but it hadn't got something to do with the game itself. I think it was just an advertising for another game
My sisters and me are searching for a few years now - so you are my last hope. Sorry for my bad english.
Cheers!

Hello, sorry for my bad english - I'm searching for a old first person PC game that i've played in my childhood. It's a futuristic dystopian and you start inside a house... I think you're in a home confinement for some stupid crime, and you need try to escape. It's not a action game, it's more like a novel. You need found items to build anothers items and found a way to escape. I do not remember what happens when you finally escape XD
Hi,
The game I am looking for is an PC game. It is about 15 years old. The game was an online multiplayer game where you would try to capture land and hold it. The land was broken up in squares if memory serves. Different land types would give you different benefits. It was a game where you would look down at the landscape. Some plots of land had these orbs that if you were able to capture and hold you would be rewarded. When you captured the land it turned to your color but when another player captured the land it would change to their color and if no one had the land it would be grey I believe.

Hi, made an account to try to finally answer this question!
This is a PC game, wanna say DOS, from around 1990. All I remember is that it was one of the first attempts at a 3d game (I *think* it was fullscreen video), when they were just starting to use triangles to build "3d sprites" (sorta) and wasn't a huge hit, making finding it quite difficult.
It's starts out as a tense, slow horror Adventure/RPG I guess. You start out (or arrive to, forget) an abandoned village, looks like all were killed by werewolf/gnoll looking monsters, dead quiet, nothing moving, but the thing that made this game stand out in memory, was that this game, in the middle of this starter village, had a little pebble on the ground, and while you were walking around this dead village, with death around every corner, going "oh crap oh crap oh crap", you would walk over this little pebble in the middle of the village and FALL OVER onto the ground like an idiot, usually making you burst out loud laughing at the tension release. Anyone that has played this game will remember tripping over that rock in the beginning, and laughing.
Someone please remember the name of this game; it has been bugging both me and one of my best friends (who played it with me) for years. Thanks in advance!

Alright. Made an account for this. Hope it works.
I'm not the one who played this and the person giving me info seems pretty unsure so everything's kinda scattered but I think I have enough info.
She thinks it was a Playstation 1 game, but it could be anything really. You play as an orange fox, and your father sends you on some sort of quest. You cut grass or wheat or something in a field and find things in it. You travel to many different areas (specifically including a swamp, and - near the end of the game - a castle or kingdom in the sky). You fight ghosts, swamp monsters, spiders, and other types of enemies on your quest. One specific part (near the beginning) includes fighting spiders in your neighbors basement. Also, either as you progress or at a specific part of the game (source is unsure), everything gets really dark because evil is spreading or taking over, and you have to fix it (but she doesn't remember how). At some point there's a bridge that was destroyed, which prevented you from reaching another area, but eventually you find a way to get over.
Hope this is enough info!
EDIT: Gonna add more as I'm given more faint memories. Asked her about the name. She said "Legend" or something similar may have been in the name, and that the name possibly started with K. (not sure how you remember that specifically lol but that's what she said). I showed her Legend of Kay and she said that's not it.
EDIT: (She says this part may be mixed up in her head with another game) One area of the game may be a forest with trees that are hollowed out and are basically waterslides on the inside that take you around the forest. She mentioned using these to chase turkeys through the forest??
