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

[Abdulaziz AlNaser]

hey everyone

I played a game around 2006, where you play as Japanese week dude and you must build traps in your house to kill samurais that are trying to kill you.
You can upgrade the house and the traps, even hire body guards.

Thanks.

Hey everyone,

I am looking for a 90s RTS game - You are in command of a bunch of mainly green fantasy creatures, which start small but which can level up in specific buildings (I think buildings had a specific number of creatures which could be in them at the same time and you could see them). The upgrades create different classes like range and close combat fighter. IIRC one could also hire mercenaries. I think one needed to cut down trees for resources and some of the trees where hiding animals which then attacked the worker.
The units I commanded made high pitched noises as voices.

Well this explanation made more sense in my head then when writing it out, but maybe somebody can still help me.

Hello

I was looking for this game for the longest time but still can't find it. It's a game made by CAPCOM and was probably made around 1995-2007ish. At first you get free levels to play but after you complete them all you have to pay for the rest of the levels which are more advanced. The character is round and chubby (kind of looks like Kirby or Pacman) I'm pretty sure he was colored Yellow or pink unless I am mistaken. Basically in the levels you would hop around the map to collect these Jewels or Diamonds that stack on your head, avoiding monsters in the level who look devilish and you can press SHIFT which shoots an ORB that kills them or knocks them out depending on which monster it is since some since some aren't killable. If the monster touches you, you drop all the Diamonds/Jewels that are stacked on your head and you have to restart the level. Once you stack all the Jewels/Diamonds on your head you return to where you spawned in the level and once you go there you Rise up while spinning and complete the level, then it sends you to the next one.

i remember this neopet like game where you were a virtual pet and you could walk around like in pixie hollow but you got to pick your like what you were, i had a wand and you had to go to school to learn more and it was just...i dont even remember it all that well but it was like 2012 or around there, i want to have my sister play it but i cant remember the name. i remember there were different areas and this one place was a mine and you needed to earn/find/craft pickaxes...and there was a tree that talked and it.. xD im trying to remember..you had a garden outside your house and you could plant things that you bought or found. and you would go on quests to get new abilities...it was like the best game ever when i was playing it...damn cant remember much though...

This is a pc game windows 7.It is a game in 2d with different levels of the "hut" and you could see all of them there was an outside too and you take care of a family of things that look like gremlins you can advance there technology so you can put food in a basket and bring it to outside ground you can breed them also to get more. the mane colors where browns , black ,the sky was not very light. I'm trying to go off of 2 mental pics so sorry if this is very confusing.

Its a kids game I think and you play as like a guardian of little gremlins/sprite things. You build schools and houses etc. There is also a big crystal like thing I cant remember what it does. You also build them farms and they eat a lot of something that is similar to cabbage. They are trying to leave a island and go back home in the end they leave using a hot air balloon? It circles between day and night and they breed etc.
Does anyone know what it is?
I remember playing it when I was little and I want to have a look at it again

You both might be talking about one of the games from the Creatures series. If not, here's a list of life simulation games, there's only a page and a half of them, so it shouldn't be too hard to look through.

Hi everyone, i've been looking for a game for about 4 or 5 hours now.
I can't tell much detail since i only played the game for a short while, since my PC couldn't handle it pretty well.

I only remember part of the first level (i think).
We play as a girl that apparently is in a coma. We start the game playing in her dreams?

In the start, she is seeing herself on the bed. we can move around in the room and see stuff like the life support machine.
Sometimes we hear people talking outside. But the room is in a mountain. The room is only the inside furniture and the back wall.

One other part i remember is a tunnel where, if i remember correctly, you can't touch dark spots. Since you have powers, you need to use them to light the street post to iluminate the way.

The start menu is very bright and with tones of blue.

I've been reading the launched games list in wikipedia from 2006 to 2012 and i'm getting really frustrated. Does anyone know what game i'm talking about?

Hello everyone,
I've come to this thread in desperation (not really), to try and see if anyone knows what games am I talking about.
Ok, so, both games I played on windows XP in the early 2000s. The first one was a spaceship type game, where you flew spaceships around. I can't remember very well, but the most distinct memory of the game, is that you started in some sort of spaceship dock, in the middle of space. There were a bunch of automatic doors that you could go through. I'm sorry for the bad explanation, but my memory isn't great. The second game is a third-person game where you played as some sort of green alien-goblin type thing. I can't even remember the point of the game, only that the goblin-alien would often make strange alien sounds. It was quite a free-roam type game, and there were zones that you could enter or leave, so the whole world didn't have to be loaded at once. There was a forest and a beach from memory, and there was something being kept in a cage in the forest for sale, perhaps a slave, I can't remember. Like a said earlier, I apologise for my explanation, but if any of you know what I am talking about, for either of these games, please tell me.

I remember playing a RPG game when I was little , I think it was a demo Cd from a pcmagazine and it was about : a human characater (i believe) which was walking around a city on island , enters different homes meets animal characters finds clues , travels with a boat to another island where he finds a cave ... there s all i remember .

He enters a library or bookcase and there s an elephant character who is walking around the bookshelf .
I think it s pretty old 1999 or 2000 i believe so
I was little and didn t understand English.

Thank you.

Could be one of the Little Big Adventure games.

OMG !!!! That's the one !!! sorry for late reply ...wow brings back memories .. i was just watching the gameplay on youtube
Thanks a lot Coldie !

 

[Ultraplex]

Hello, I've been searching for 2 games so long, every time I am bored, or when I am sick of playing online games or not working I wonder, how can I find those games and I know my mom threw away those CD-s long time ago..
It was the time about 2003/4 +

1. First one is similar to Crimsonland except that player, had powers and abilities, not guns. I think primary auto-attack was wand and blue stuff coming out of it as I remember, and then after the levels are passing you have talents and stuff to upgrade. I remember that it has ability like this "http://i47.tinypic.com/1o5edk.jpg" just looks like that and burns enemy to the ground.
Ehm a little help is that, mother and I used to play gamehouse games back than.. so might have the influence of search. I researched all the things around ofc 'similar games to crimsonland 100 games like that didn't work out for me..

2. Second one is also MAYBE one of Gamehouse games it's also the same time as the game up above. It's a arcade, racing game, top down view, with a lot of cars to buy, a lot of weapons to upgrade and is a top view as well. Game is like, you race with few laps, shoot down enemies, earn money and upgrade cars and weapons on your cars it had good graphics tho

Thanks in advance Ultra out.

 

[SmokedXD]

Ok so here goes. Dont rember alot about the game. It was similar to FFT in the style of game. with the board and movieing your characters around turn based. Except of squares I think they are octogons. I belive it was for playstation. The only main part I can remember about it is that one of the characters you could get was a raptor like dinasaur thing that you could breed/spawn and make more of while battling. I also want to say it was more monster type characters and not human. Im not sure if there was a campain or main stroy to it. I only remember playing a skrimage type of game.

Well doing a little more searching and still no luck. I am not 100% sure it was for playstation but I do know it was a console game. And doing a little backwards counting going to say some time in the 1990-1997 time frame. But that might be wrong too. I also want to say that those little guys are call the hive something similar to that. I know this is a very limited description. But for now its all I got.

 

[yugo375]

Hello!

There's a game I was offered when I was little but never could play as my family had a mac and it was a pc game.
I looked a lot a the cover though, it depicted an aerial battle game, with lots of different flying ships/vehicle like a flying carpet, a (flying) barrel, and different kinds of airships. I believe there was some sort of races/clans to pick from where you would start from a little ship and upgrade your way to a big one.
I got it around 2003 but I don't know if it was recently released or not.
Sorry I can't be more specific and if I make grammar mistakes.

Thanks for the help!

Hey Jonas,

[Blighted]

There's a game i'm thinking of but can't remember what it's called. I think it was a browser game but it might of been a downloadable game i;m not sure. You started out in the sky maybe in heaven amongst angels and I remember one NPC that every new character had to talk to as part of quest called Rafael or Raphael. Eventually the game led you to killing a certain boss in order to leave the starting/tutorial area which i believe the area was the sky area or heaven, and then you fell down to earth in a kingdom/palace. it was a fixed overhead camera game i think idk about that and kinda pixelated sort of like maplestory but with a locked/fixed overhead camera

Any help is much appreciated

 

[UndertakerInf]

-PC game from early 2000
-2d rts
-top down view (not 100% sure on this one)
-two teams (red and blue ,i think)
-you control some kind of a robot which can transform into a plane
-you can build other units (workers and tanks)
-while in plane form you can pick them up and drop anywhere on the map
-workers work in some kind of factory ,which are on some kind of oil spills
-both players can populate the same factory with workers (i think five total is the max)
-while in robot from you can shoot enemy tanks

bump

I'm thinking Z but no transforming there.

 

[Geoffrey Wayne Mike]

I don't remember this RTS PCgame but i know i had multiple disk for it, as one was a golden edition and it was a gold color, one was green, one was red, and i remember a blue too, you could be any race, as of the characters of World of Warcraft(Undead, human, elf, undead elf or some crap, but pretty much anything), you had to build a base, as you upgrade your Kingdom you got better upgrades for troops as well as making new troops, or better fortifying your base. You had to kill things to level up your troops if i remember correctly, it also came with a building map CD as well to make your own map, i dont know what the game is called i hope this was enough information, i remember playing thhis maybe 10 years ago roughly, maybe even on the old windows 95 to 2000. You could also play as dwarfs and such and even tree people to build a Kingdom and upgrade it and get gold, please help i really want this game back!

Thank you so much!

The Unholy War, maybe?

 

[gossamier]

This has been bothering me for a long time and I can't for the life of me remember the name:

You played a stickman,
it was multiplayer (not the kind where 2 people play on one computer, the kind where you can play with strangers),
it was web-based,
I think there were teams and you had like a suit of the team colour?,
You could make maps,
the maps were just like blocks. So everything was made with different kinds of blocks.
It was a shooting game.

This is all that I can remember about the game, I hope it's enough. Please help!

reposting bc it doesn't look like anyone knows what I'm talking about, and it's still killing me!

 

[The_Sojourner]

Okay so this is a weird one because I have such little memory of what it actually was and it's apparently super obscure because NO ONE has been able to tell me what this game was when I asked them, even people who used to play the game with me!

I have no idea when it was released, I only know I played it on an old computer that must've been somewhere between 98 to Vista.

I only ever had a demo of it, because my dad liked to hunt for demos of little-known games at the time. For reference, I also had the demo of Throne of Darkness at the same time I was playing this. Games I actually owned at the time were things like Lords of the Realm III. I'm -fairly- sure this was before the release of Warcraft III, which became one of my major games.

All I can remember are the tiniest snippets of images... I remember in the beginning of the game, you got to choose either one character or a group of characters and they were all standing in this giant, circular stone room. And I think the center of the room had some sort of sigil or rune in the center, but I don't recall completely. I remember at least most of the choices of characters, if not all of them, wore robes.

I also remember that when you were having your character or characters walk around, your mouse cursor took the shape of little golden footprints or something like that...

I also recall the soundtrack being one of my favorites at the time, with most of it sounding like it was sort of dark choir-esque. It lent itself well to the feel of the game, which was very mystical and fantasy-based.

That's literally all I remember, except I enjoyed the hell out of that demo when I was little. Not even my dad, though he says he thinks he knows what game I'm talking about, can recall the name. This one and Throne of Darkness have been wracking my brain for the longest time, and I only figured out ToD because I remembered it was a Diablo-like so I just had to google "Japanese styled Diablo-like." XD I don't know if this game was any good, as I also enjoyed Throne of Darkness when, really, it was kind of a bad Diablo rip off, but I would love to just know what it was, again.

Thank you very much. If anyone can solve this mystery, I would recommend you pursue a job as a detective, because figuring this out from such little information that I can provide is probably nearly impossible, haha.

Bump.

I have been scouring the internet for some time now, attempting to find a game I know I played when I was younger. This game was on PC, and it was an educational children's game. I feel it was either from the late 1990's or early 2000's. I do not remember a lot about it, but from what I do remember, it involved a family and their home. You played as the son in the family and went around solving puzzles throughout the house. I remember the boy had a sister who you would see sometimes. The one puzzle I can remember well was in the fridge in the kitchen. You had to find the correct measurements of what it asked before you could progress to the next one. If my memory serves me right, the fridge, upon entering the kitchen, was on the left-hand side. I also vaguely remember a cow in the fridge, though I could be wrong on that.

I'm sorry I can't provide more information than that. Again, this was a long time ago that I actually played this game. I found previous games I used to play as a kid, but I'd love to be reunited with this one as well. If anyone has any ideas, I'd be grateful.
