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

Hello my dear folks! I need some help. It is a game that came with Windows XP in 2006. You are the green frog, whole game is from bird perspective, and you jump straight ahead. Above road where you need to take care that cars and lorry don't kill you, above lake (or river?) on water lilies and so on. I think that you catch some flies too. There was simply comands, arrows and space. I really hope you can help me, thank you!

That's definitely a Frogger game. Frogger (1997) - sometimes known as Frogger He's Back - I would bet is the specific game you're looking for. A much acclaimed Frogger game. I spent many hours at it myself haha.

Hi everyone, I have three games that I'm trying to find.

First one is a FPS. I remember you can do practise before starting the campaign and during practise you can shoot at panes of glass and come to a bullet proof sheet that you can destroy with a launcher. When you start the campaign I think there's a scientist in a computer lab and something comes through the screen and kills him. You walk down a corridor and are faced with the first enemy (can't remember what it is though).

Second game is a FPS as well. Sort of a country/western theme I think. I don't remember a lot about it but I remember you come to a farm and can shoot a farmer and only his legs remain (when using a shotgun I think, and on a different gameplay setting, like 18+ rating or a different difficulty etc.

Third is a strategy game. you're some sort of geometric object I think (can't remember for sure) and you pass over coloured tiles and they disappear according to the colours. (blue is one pass, red you can go over twice green three times etc.)

All were played on windows I'm sure and probably out around mid-late 90's I'm thinking. I've been looking for these for years so all help is appreciated.

The first one reminds me of Half-Life, but I don't know why... hope I could help
Thanks.

That's definitely got the same feel (just looked up gameplay footage on youtube) but the plot doesn't seem right and I think I'd recognize the first few seconds of gameplay right away...thanks though. Can anyone help identify these games?

Okay so I'm looking for a late 80's-90's pc game. The only details I remember is the style is similar to Myst and may take place in a desert and you begin on a crashed/landed plane? The mouse pointer was also a weird kind of orange looking wrinkly hand and when a door was locked it said "locked" in an irritated voice. I also remember something about a cannon or cannonball somewhere but that's it. (It's not Nightfall but looks a lot like it)

Hi, I am trying to find a computer game that I randomly remembered but I can't remember the name of, i remember playing it in the 2000s. It was a board game type of game where there can be multiple players at the same time and each player has pieces that kind of look like the board game Sorry pieces but they can also have the pieces dressed up like motorbike riders (mustache, leather jacket, glasses) and all these different types of ones. and so it works like sorry as well where you have to get all the way around the board and home, but it the process it is violent with the aim of the game to kill each other with things like air strikes, the hand of god (lighting) and so on, and when someone kills someone it makes a splat sound and a little animation of a blood splat is left behind. and the game pieces all have little animated voices.

I was wondering if anyone will know what game I'm talking about because I want to know what is it so badly, it was with you playing and fighting in a castle and such with skeletons and I think zombies too. Other things were you had to collect different colored keys to be able to open certain colored doors. I'm pretty sure it was a 00s game but it could have been from 90s, it was on the PC and I guess you could describe it as a hack slash game.It wasn't a fps or tps or a top down. It was more of a adventure type game that was trying to look 3d for that time but was 2d. It was a top down type of game but had looks of a 3d game if that helps.

Sounds like wolfenstein 3d or Doom to me.

Nah it wasn't that, it wasn't a fps or tps or a top down. It was more of a adventure type game.

Orange looking wrinkly hand...might that be Mummy: Tomb of the Pharaoh or Frankenstein: Through the Eyes of the Monster? Sounds like the guide hand Dirt from the latter game, and the plane and desert thing sounds a lot like the former.

I'm trying to find the name of this game on PlayStation One, that I used to like playing. It was a fighting RPG type of game. It was about a boy and something happened to him, with the village assuming that he died years ago, but he survived... I think the people from his village thought that he had drowned and that seeing him was a ghost. I would appreciate it if someone found the name of this for me. It's like a Final Fantasy knock-off..

I'm trying to find the name of a game I was playing a lot when I was younger. Strategy game, pc, 90s or early 2000.
It was just machines. all types of car/tanks helicopters, yes you got it.
I would appreciate if someone know or find the name of this game.
Thank you!

Alright let's see if this community can help xD,

Two games:

1) A game in which you adventure, explore dungeons, find girls and proceed to (How can I keep this as PG as possible...) have a little fun (assume what you will) right then and there. With scenes added. It looked like it was made with RPG Maker but probably wasn't.

2) A game in which you start off at your mother's house, people die and you have to become some interdimensional being and slay demons. At least thats where I started. It was visually similar to Diablo 1 & 2.

I need these games back in my life xD

I played them on a PC with Windows XP if that helps.

I used to play this computer game in elementary school from the library so this is from the 2000s but all I can vaguely remember is the front cover of the cd case. It had a bright pink pig with white gloves on its hands and in the background had some sort of factory thing I think. I have been trying to find it for days and I don't remember enough to find anything. Anyone else know what I'm talking about???

Looks like "Tomba!"

No it wasn't tomba. It was a computer game that was about problem solving

Rayman?

No it's not rayman. It's like a kids gAme with problem solving. It wasn't so much an adventure game but rather an academic game

I am trying to find the name of this game. It was CD Rom format and was basically a girl and her cat going thorugh different time periods in different places around the owrld (Egypt, and france marie antoinette style and elizabethan golden age are the only ones I can remember) and you would dress them up in the fashions of that time and would have facts about that time (like egyptians would often shave their heads and wear wigs). It's not a barbie game and I think it was a standalone game. If anyone can help me I owuld be soo so happy!

 

[Jlsf0074]

I need help to find a old that i can remember the name. It's a game from 97/98 in third person view like tombraider has a possibility to start the game with tree charaters, it's a shooter and you need to resolve sample puzzles. The scenario is like a labyrinth and you can fall and die. The game runs under windows and i think is one of the first thrid person shooters game type.

Hello guys,
There is this one game I've been looking for again and again for a long time now. I remember some "images" only, as I was probably 4-5 years old.

It is a PS1 game. So one of the images I can recall is the very early gameplay. The perspective is from above and the player figure is relatively small. The area is mostly green and I believe you are free to go in all directions. You fight some kind of monsters, in this early area I remember little yellow creatures, almost like "Pikachu". I am not sure if you had one of those yourself, but you had a monster/creature. I also remember the monster taking a dump every once in a while. Another thing I remember is that the monster you had could evolve into a stronger or weaker monster. I know, you are probably thinking of Digimon World, I'll go into that later on.
The last thing I remember is a kinda "dramatic" scene. I have this image of a yellow or orange creature that is leaving either the player or another person. I see this creature kinda flying off a cliff, and it flies with its ears.
So I did a lot of research. This last creature I mentioned is very similar or maybe in fact is a Patamon from the Digimon franchise, it's just that I kinda connect yellow more with it than orange. Also this whole monster-evolving-and-taking-a-dump-thing is very Digimon World like, BUT I cannot find this "dramatic" scene I mentioned in Digimon World, and also the early gameplay area, even though it is green-ish it is not what I had in mind.

I would appreciate any kind of help, you would do me a great favor, it means a lot to me to find this game, I thought about it again and again during my childhood.
Thanks in advance.

I remember back in 99 when the family got our first PC, my mum got a bunch of pirated games and one of them was this bizarre game Ive been trying to find since.

It was a side scroller sprite game where you start off in a pod (ship?) and you have to get outta it before it explodes (litterally just hop out of it onto a clift). Further on in the level I remember there being a giant you had to avoid to possibly get a weapon? and besides that I know there are monsters that can eat you if you don't kill them. Its animated they eat you, quite grousome. I dunno if this was a snes, mega drive port or what? but this is all I have to go by.

Also if I can prove this game is real, I win a cheesecake from my friend who thinks I'm delusional.

edit: it was Heart of Darkness a ps1 game. My awesome Mum remember it.

Hi guys! Don't know if this has been asked before, almost 700 pages and whatnot.

Me and my little brother played this game when we were younger. You were in a maze/labyrinth of some sort. There were a lot of stuff to collect, and I mean a lot, almost every inch was covered in colorful coins, gems and power ups (I think). You were this fantasy character with a bow, elf or human possibly. It was a top down perspective and you were mostly killing spiders. I don't know if this was the whole game or if it was more to it cause we never made it out of the maze. I think there might have been keys involved and time limit too, but I'm not sure. I think there was a minotaur boss, but could be something else. This was on a Pc if I remember correctly. Been searching for years, so any guesses would be very much appreciated. Thanks!

No one with any ideas?
This could have been a demo aswell.

Hello everyone! I remember playing a medieval strategy game in the period 2006-2007 I think.In the game as far as I remember you could build castles.I also remember that there was a knight in the menu and I also think that there were some kind of cards. I can tell you that the game isn't any of the Age of empires,Stronghold,Settlers or Lords of the Realm
Thanks in advance.
The platform was PC

I have been searching for this game, off and on, for over a year now. I believe it was a computer game because it was very similar to Myst, in that it was a first-person, adventure/mystery/puzzle game that you would point and click to move around the environment. I think it was a computer game, but it may have been an early PS game. I'm thinking I was in middle school, so I would say that it was between 1996 and 2000. It was set in a small desert town and you had to collect these artifacts/clues to figure something out. I remember one scene where I was in these caves/trails and there were native american hieroglyphs that lead to a clue. Sorry, I can't remember any more details, but if I see a picture, I will totally know the game!

Thanks!
