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

[Meximagician]

I remember playing this flash game in high school, so it must have come out in 2006 or earlier. It's a side-scrolling, single player, platformer staring two characters the player could switch between mid-game. One is bulky and carries a sledgehammer or mallet, the other is lean and carries a sniper rifle.

The unique part of this flash game was that the sniper could stand at certain parts of each area and snipe, which switched the game to a first person view. This was why the sniper could only snipe from certain spots, as the levels had to be redrawn to support this.

It must have been a very short game or a demo, with only a single boss and few environments.

The only parts I'm not so sure of: the boss might have needed to be shot, then have the oversized bullets hammered home by the other character; also, the visual style may have looked similar to Adam Phillips' Brackenwood animations, though not as detailed or well animated.

Any help is appreciated.

Have been looking for a PS1 game for quite sometime, searches have given me nothing so far but maybe some hope here. From what I recall you could select a few different starting characters at the beginning of the game of whose story you wish to play. The one thing that stood out tho was instead of the basic steel swords and such your units would use like "Wooden Sword/Bow/Staff" and as they use it they learn new attacks and skills with it till they master it. Then you would equip the new gear and I even remember you could have multiple units attack together if the order of attacks and skills were correct to create new ones. If memory serves the camera when walking was tilted a bit and you could see the enemies on the field to avoid conflict if need be.

okay, there was a game i used to play when i was young on the PC, and all i remember is that it's a puzzle game that has shapes of metal things and it used to have two buckets one is on the top of the screen upside down and the other is on the bottom which facing the opposite side of the top bucket, and placed in a different corner. and there is some kind of oil coming out of the bucket, with special color that matches the bucket and all i have to do is try to use the shapes to lead the oil to the right colored bucket. similar idea for the game (sugar,sugar).

I bloody love this thread. I can practically feel the excitement and happiness people get from rediscovering those lost games

Maybe ill be as lucky .

Old 3D adventure RPG.

Medieval fantasy setting.

You play a character that has been infected or otherwise contaminated, and as you progress (could be time bound) you gradually lose your human form to something more beastly. i remember it having 2 stages at least (might be 3 if complete human was possible). i believe the upside was that you were stronger, the downside was no npc would talk to you and hence you couldnt continue the story.
There was a way to reverse to a less beastly state, but u had to drink water that was blessed? holy? at the cost of a chunk of your healthbar.
It had some basic swordplay in it, and i believe different weapons could be used.
There was also a tavern where you could play a form of reversi.

considering the sparseness of my info, google doesnt get me anywhere, and the lists of games i found stretch decades.
I played it on PC, ps1 comparable graphics... mightve been around the same time as FX fighter so 1995 ish.

would be such a blast if someone could shed some light on this

I'm going to guess either Lands of Lore: Guardians of Destiny, or Vampire: The Masquerade: Redemption.

neither it seems, lands of lore seems to be quite quirky, and vamp was way after. The game seemed dark and gritty to me, progression was slow and the storyline was about you as a hero/antihero managing your curse, either being beastly and strong, or more human and able to talk to people. slow like FF, action like resident evil 1/2 is how i would describe it...

Hi guys,

can anyone help any further here? I am looking for the same game.
The description from the user Molantaki is pretty much what I can remember from the game.

It was a 3D fantasy action RPG. I played it on PC, after playing Monkey Island 2. The year should be from 95-96 onwards.

I remember that in the game you did not have the chance to customise your character.
Dark/decadent environment.
You had a lot of freedom in the game, you were allowed to kill everyone if you wanted to. At your risk, because you could have killed an important character.

Also, I remember that to win new weapons, you had to play a sort of draughts.
You could choose different weapons (the axe was slower than the sword), and if I'm not mistaken, after a while the weapons could be damaged for the use.

Maybe the plot referred to a guild or a group called "the Walkers".
Anyway, as said earlier, the main plot was this protagonist being infected and able to turn into a beast.
Playing as a beast you were stronger, but after a while you couldn't go back human anymore.

Thank you in advance!

Hello All,

Please help me. I have been stuck for months!

I used to play a game in the mid 90's on my old PC. You were a character in a big two or three storey house. It had a cellar, a kitchen, a study and a room right at the top which contained a telescope you could use to look at the town below. The house was on a cliff or something. You literally had to type what the player should do. Type to walk, type to search cupboards, type to open doors.

You could also travel to town. In the dessert you could find Medusa. If she looked at you I think you would die and return to the house.

Please help me. I just cannot remember the name.

Thank you!

Hello All,

Sounds like King's Quest III.

Most of the details you listed are kind of ambiguous, and you didn't list the platform. That usually makes it tough for anyone to identify the game.

Could be anything from Goblins 3 to Litil Divil.

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

Ideas ?

Joined to forums just because you guys are really good at this! I don't exactly remember when I played this game but it was a demo from a gaming magazine, It might be around 2000's though.
>The game was an jrpg(or rpg idk) with a turn based battle system where you cant see your heroes but pictures of the enemies you are fighting.
>It starts in a village the main hero is a guy.
>He takes one male and one female friend and they leave the village going north.
>They pass a forest, where I found a hole on the ground, if you go down its pitch black except a skeleton. You can talk to it and it shows you a few choices, one of them leads to a battle against the skeleton, other is returning back to the surface. I never beat the skeleton so I dont know what happens when you beat it.
>Continue to north and there are mountains where a black winged angel/demon something ambushes you and wipes out all heroes. And then a white winged angel/demon something jumps down hill and strikes the black one. Revives all heroes and joins your party. He follows you around after that.
>Once you reach the summit of the mountain you find an old man that probably talks about important stuff. I didnt knew English that well before so I'm not sure. However I do remember him sayin something like its too dangerous for girls. The girl in the party gets furious about it and continue questing anyways.
>You return back to the village after that, only to find every house on fire and people dead.
> You go door to door until one of the guys gives you his boat.
> You leave the village by the sea and go east (Not sure about this) and find another village under attack.
>Houses are on fire etc. You fight a big fella. Probably boss. When you beat him, the demo ends.

Thats all I can remember about the game. Feel free to ask anything if you have any idea what it could be. Thanks ^^

I know this is a long shot, because i remember very little about this game. Here goes, i remeber playing this game on pc around the late 90's, maybe very early 00's. You play as this guy in a red shirt with a hat. Kinda looked like a farmer or something. You have a shot gun and you have to go into this house. In the house i think you have to kill zombies (i also kinda rember having to kill spiders). I believe it was 2d, and you climed up stairs to different parts of the house. You may have had to go through different doors. Its so frustrating because i keep tring to google it, and for the life of me cannot find it. Please help.

I played this game somewhere in the timespan of 2007-2010. It was an online free multiplayer 2D browser game where you use a spaceship and fly around in sppace, shooting other players or becoming a team with them. Me and a bunch of my friends used to play it at our school computer lab and we could all connect together. You could buy new ships and have multiple different kinds of blasters attached to your ship. Different ships had different max amount of blasters. I think there were trading quests. There were planets spread out but you didn't actually go on them. you could just fly over the 2D image And interact with a prompt that showed up. There were these giant ships you could buy after playing the game for a while. Also 1 more thing, there were these "+ shaped" things that were extremely powerful and had the colors like red, blue, and yellow and i think had a smiley face on it.

 

[brysonmaynard40]

[that_dude]

so this game i cant remember the name of theres a scene where theres somebody in a straitjacket and he has to get rid of it, then he has to escape whatever building he was in at the moment and then i think he turns into a detective and does kind of like a parcour test that he has to pass in order to become a detective

btw thats probably not the correct order but thats just what i remember
