Ok so my game was on SNES (I'm pretty sure). I believe it was an RPG. But there is only one scene I can remember. The main character is talking to either a mole or a mole person. And I believe mole talks about being blinded by the sunlight. Any thoughts?

You'd probably remember if it actually were this, but might it be Super Mario RPG? ...there was a Moleville full of molepeople.

Not that :( Definitely remember Mario RPG. I feel like in that scene the main character went underground and that's where the mole people lived. And the sunlight was coming from above.

Hello, i was wondering if someone could tell me the name of this one game:

-brutal game about a worm going through all sorts of singleplayer levels. dont think there was a multiplayer.
-2d platform game (view from the side).
-steampunk-looking design (NPC enemies like green indestructible blob, red blobs, mechanical grey dogs like from star wars, red walkers, all sorts of turrets, other creepy or blodied worms, acid baths, mini nukes falling from above, and even someones foot.)
-DOS or winxp game, i think.

description:
-you were controlling a slim upright brutal looking worm (no big eyes) which held a gun in the middle of its torso. (from shotgun and exploding toothbrushes to green interesting-projectiles-shooting BFG.)
-the design was steampunk loking, sometimes nonsense-looking.
-it had some sort of crazy plotline:
(some of the levels: finding floating biscuit and elder worm with beard in the underground, racing to coca-cola can on someones lawn before a foot crushes you, shooting through robotized facility, finding some wounded worm in a worm-sized hospital, going through some sewers etc.)
-you had to find weapons and ammunition laying around and collect green, blue and red keys to open doors leading to the objectives. such as to kill, interact with something or go out of map.

-its nothing like those happy-looking worms series with huge letters and health bars for kids. there were worm prostitutes, rideable rockets shooting tanks, desolate bombarded worm cities and lots of blood and gore.

it looked almost like this:

The only thing I can think of is Earthworm Jim.

I used to watch my stepdad play an old pc game. Probably early 90's. The character you play is an adult male, and I believe he wore a suit. His apartment where you load in at is really minimalist; no crazy colors or fuzzy things, just grey walls, a bed, a balcony and his computer desk from what I remember. You would leave the apartment and walk through the city interrogating people and searching for answers. The game didn't hold your hand, you had to figure things out like a detective. I remember a very rainy/dreary city setting and neon signs. The character may have had significant nightmares, but I could be wrong on that as I was quite young and wasn't even allowed to watch my stepdad play all of the game, just certain parts, because it was "for grown ups". So there was probably swearing, possibly nudity or drug use? I think the people in the city were predominantly Asian. I know that certain aspects of Blade Runner (pc) remind me of this game, but it was not very futuristic. I don't recall any flying cars or lasers. It seemed to be sticking to a realistic time-period/setting. Again, I was a kid and only allowed to watch this game be played so some details might be a tad off. Sorry to ramble, and I really appreciate this thread!!!
Broken Sword maybe?

I am trying to find an old flash browser game Top down view. It have pixel graphics lost of bloody red pixels when hitting the enemies. It was medieval and you could pick either a mage warrior or archer. You could have two people play at the same time one on arrows one on wasd. The mage did not regen manna and only special spells used manna i think the archer had to find arrows. the map movement was the screen was a section of the map and you could move to the top bottom or right and left to move to a new segment. you would explore around the level that way trying to find something i think keys at the end you have to find a dragon and if you killed him you went to the portal behind it to get to the next area. You also started in a grey cobblestone type building i think. Any help would be great been searching this forum for a long time as well as others i find two very similar requests on here that i am sure were trying to find the same game unfortunately they remained unanswered.
Hands of War [http://www.kongregate.com/games/Djugan/hands-of-war?acomplete=hands+of+war]?

unfortunately it is not this game same idea for map movement and overview but the game I am thinking of only used the keyboard and had an option for local coop through on player using arrows and one using wasd.

Might also be the first Breath of Fire. There was a small cave village of moles, and one of the party members was a moleman.

Looking for a game thought it was a western/set in around that era

The game had at the end of each mission a boss battle similar to Outlaw where you walked around in circles till you heard a ding and that meant you had to shoot

You also got points for shooting things like destroying sheleters

The first mission from memory you went through a town, there was another mission in a grave yard, there was another mission i think on a horse and cart

If anyone could help that would be great

Hi there's this game I've been trying to find for about a year now and it's really getting on my nerves because I can't find it . Ok so it goes likes this ..... You would create a robot that half human ( I think ) and it would hatch from an egg and there would be like a genius scientist telling you how to take of the bot and you could give it breakfast lunch dinner or you could do sports with them like basketball and go to the vending machine but there's a twist something bad would've happened and there ended up being an evil twin if the bot you created . When you played basketball you would play against him . You would also have the option to design your room for example , change the wallpaper, your bed , the view etc.. That's all I can remember from the game I think the title has something to do Eggbot , Ro something or not something also it's a PC game when my friend said Roblox I remembered the name but now I can't Help Me Please

Hey everyone! I just created an account to ask you for your help! I've been looking for 2 games for ages now, and I'll do my best to give you a description of my memories of them...

1. I think it was a point-and-click kind of PC game, in the same style as Putt-Putt and Freddi Fish (Humongous Entertainment). But I looked at all of their games and I couldn?t find the one I?m looking for!
It?s an educational game and the characters are (all) animals living in a forest, and they form some kind of club that gathers in a log house. One of them is a raccoon that is a painter, and you can play a painting mini-game with him (you can pick the colors and ?paint?, and then actually print your painting. Some kind of coloring picture).
I think there was an owl involved as well, and when some animal came on screen with a running animation it was like a classic cartoony entrance, with dust clouds and a ?WOOSH!? sound.
Oh and the game came in one of these cardboard boxes, about the size of an A4 paper. The log house and the raccoon were part of the boxart.

2. Another point-and-click game I used to play at my grandparents?. I was very young back then, but I remember you entered a big house in the beginning and the game took place in that house. The house was full of riddles and puzzles, and there were multiple playable characters.
I?m not sure if those characters were separate characters, or that your character could shape shift into another. One of those characters was a tiny flying thing (not sure if it was a mosquito, fly or fairy) you could use to fly through a key hole.

I think you could also be a mouse (to enter the cellar) and a dog at some other points in the game, although I?m not quite sure about the last one.

Both games were very childish (I was somewhere between 5 and 10 when I played them) and cartoony.

Closest I can think of is the action RPG Illusion of Gaia, aka Illusion of Time. Angel Village was underground and populated by people who died if exposed to sunlight. You would also see shafts of light here and there throughout the village.

So the game I'm looking for is what I think is a platformer where you go through a tower and try to defeat monsters but if you die you start over in the tower when you come back. It was online and you could build a town where you could make resources and such.

Hey, guys.
The game I'm looking for is an old SNES game.
I don't remember much of the game, but I remember you could play by yourself or with two player at same time. It is a side scrolling game.
At some point in the levels, you find a cake (or something like that), and when you eat, you say "ROCK, ROCK, ROCK'N ROLL!!!" and become superstrong, ripping your shirt off.

Would be glad if someone help me with this one. Has been years that I try to find out the name of this game.

Thanks.

I'm looking for an old PlayStation game that had different modes and terrains. A shooter type of game. One mode was capture the flag. Multiplayer game. You worked as teams red vs blue. One terrain had a river going through it with a bridge. There were small buildings on each teams side. The player could swim, jump, squat, run, and walk. You could either shoot or throw bombs. Another terrain in a different mode where you were also on teams but the point was just to kill the other teams members had a bunch of old buildings with a freeway bridge in it. It's built on a soldier concept. I think we played it on PS1 or 2. Any one know the game I'm talking about?

I have some ideas, but they're kind of farfetched. Though if you're sure that there was a computer, then that narrows it down a lot. Lot of early detective/mystery games were set in past.

Do you remember anything about the interface or the graphics? Were they hand-drawn, or early full-motion video? Were there large menus visible?

Based on information so far, my best guess would be one of the early Tex Murphy games. The 'no handholding' and 'dreary city setting' certainly fit, as does being able to actually see your character and walk around a city. Does this look familiar?: http://store.steampowered.com/app/302340/

Then there's Evidence: The Last Report... But that was released in 1996, probably too 'recent'.
The Tex Murphy game was really similar, like the look of it, but the one I'm searching for didn't have an emphasis on the "classic detective" kind of guy even though he was definitely trying to investigate/solve a crime. The look was really similar though! No extremely bright colors, rather dreary. The way you transition from place to place outside in Evidence: TLR, how it's like you walk there instead of go through a load screen, was like the one I'm looking for. . I don't know if it helps, but in the game in ? I remember there being a crowd of npcs out by the streets and one of the npcs that you could talk to was a guy at a large food stand frying up some sort of food. I really thought it was a Chinatown-like area, but I was a kid and could just be remembering lights and decorations a bit wrong.

I've been looking for this game for a year and I'm slowly going crazy.

I used to play it in the early 2000. It looked like a 2d maze game and was really dark, maybe underground but I'm not sure. It was like one screen for a level and you would walk around with this little guy and I think you could dig the blocks that were blocking your way, and you for sure collected some kind of potions and then you could throw them and they would explode or something. And there were evil cactuses of some sort and you would have to kill them with this potions, you could also throw them on the wooden crates/boxes and get something from them I think. I don't remember much more, cactuses and potions are the most vivid parts.

Please help me, I will be forever grateful!
