Hi guys! I've been looking for a PC-game for a while now and hope you can help me - although there's not much I remember. I don't know if it was a download-file or a CD, but it was on Windows 95. You played as a little red creature with big yellow eyes (I think that creature wore a light blue hat / cap). That creature had to pass a maze-like level and collect some things (for extra points...but I don't even remember what those things were) on the way to the goal. Yeah, that's it.... As I said, not much information at all, but I hope someone here knows what I'm talking about (-;
Still haven't found it, soo....bump ^^"
probably litil devil
Nope ): It was a plain 2D maze, and afair the creature was always seen from frontal view. But thx for trying!

Anyone else, maybe...?

I have a question about an old game I played that I just can't seem to find the name of.

The things i do remember about the game:
1. you were a detective/cop accused of murdering your partner
2. you were hunted by the police while trying to catch the murderer
3. you could pick up weapons from the environment (pipes, wooden planks, etc.)
4. you collected bird skeletons during gameplay
5. you become the "bad guy" at the end of the game
6. the game was on the PC, it was a FPS
7. approximate time period 1990-2002

Sorry I can't be of more help and thanks in advance to anyone that can tell me the name of the game.

Apologies if I'm not putting this in the correct place...(pls. advise if it isn't) I wish to post my own question about a game from the past.

The last time I remember seeing it, it was around 1993... an arcade game with video of real people set in the Old West.
The video was interactive, so whenever you missed or shot someone, all the other characters would look over, then look at you, and comment.

Anyone remember this name? Shoot Out? Gunslinger? Oh I just don't know.

Appreciate it.
=)

I recall an old Playstation game in which you played as an anthropomorphic tiger who had some sort of Chi powers. But in the beginning, you are attacked by this Dragon and are on a revenge quest. You go around and meet/battle other Zodiac animals. The name has escaped me for fifteen years.
I got it for you right here: "Tai Fu: the Wrath of the Tiger". It took a bit of searching, but I remember renting this game as well. The gameplay reminded a small bit of Crash Bandicoot, but maybe that was due to my age and the color schemes used in the game.

Still, it was kickass.

Spot on, my friend. And I agree, it was a bit like Crash. Although more mature, I think. Ah, the good old days.
OMG thank you so much i have been trying to remember this name for about 9 years now. i love this game so much. Thank you again

Hi, there was a SNES or GBA game, where you were a little kid, you woke up in the morning and you needed to go to brush your teeth, and then you lived the normal life of that kid (you took breakfast, you went to play with your dog, a normal day). At the very end of the game they gave you a code that you could use, I don't remember how or for what, but the game was for the SNES or GBA. Thanks if anyone can help me. :D

Can anyone please help identify a game that I've been trying to remember? I believe its a sega or nes game. It's a sideview game and you do puzzles in some sort of land and go through ants hill underground. For some reason, I keep remembering the color purple for some reason. Thanks.

I need help finding a game. I was very young when i last plyed it. I never got to beat it because it actually scared the crap outta me..but now im all grown u and i wanna play it. Its about this girl who ends up getting kidnapped by these 2 evil scientists..1 is a guy the others a girl.. And her boyfriend and a group of friends go to save her. the game is based around the evil dudes mansion or house or whatever...i dont remember much, but i remember at the beginning theres a key underneath the doormatto open the front door. and when u get in the house theres a door that has a kyad on it and u need to find out the right code.. If you just guessed the code the whole house would blow up and you would lose. I know there was like 6 or 7 characters u could control 1 at a time. if u got busted by the evil dudes they put u in their dungeoun...i remember a kitchen with lots of blood.. if any1 could help me that would be awesome.

Oh christ finally i've been looking for a thread like this for AGES.

Now the following is going to be a very VERY bad description, bare with me:

Its just like Rogue, but its i small grid screen something like 10x10. Not sure.

It worked by going into a dungeon and every level you gained, you could pick a new spell from a list, like "fireball", "heal" and otherwise.

It has some sort of story, but it just doesnt come to me. I played it close to a decade ago, not sure when it was made.

Some of the enemies consisted of a mirror reflection of yourself, as well as a block of jelly?

When you died, there was this grave with when you played and what you put your name as. I think it appeared to be in Atari-ish graphics.

I've been looking forever for this game, I used to love it.
was it a game where all the fighting was in a dungeoun that it was very easy to get lost in..and u could go to town and lvl up and if u died u had to go to the church and revive urself which sometimes was really expensive...the graphics werent that good thats y it was easy to get ost cz everything looked the same, but it was a very fun game.. and after u killed a monster or whatever sometimes there would be a chest that u had to pick an action like to just open it or to attempt to disarm or something, sometimes getting u hurt...and the block of jelly things were like green

For whatever it would be worth, #65 is BioForge, an action-adventure by Origin, and #90 is Gag, a Russian adventure game.

That sounds very much like Maniac Mansion.

ok, so i created this account simply for this thread...thank you for creating it.

My father is looking for an old school (probably 70's) arcade game, unfortunately he is terrible at describing things in any amount of detail. I'll paraphrase the best i can:

the game involves three colored lines that you cant control directly, rather, you "guide" (or otherwise influence the movement of said lines) them in an attempt to cross two or more of them over "stars" (objective points) to detonate them. the color changes and there is some music as well.


good luck

I've been searching everywhere for the last week and this is my last hope. All i can remember about the game is this :

- Sidescroller
- Your character had the ability to extend his body and get really tall, and grab onto things.
- You start of outside this building that got a alot of different doors, which are levels. And you can climb the building for more levels.
- Some levels are Candy levels of some sort.
- Some levels you get to drive a car or a plane.
- I belive i remember something about penguins. (Like when you die you end up with penguins or something similar)

An extremely vague description but I didn't play the game myself, I hope somebody can help.

An old xbox game where you wake up in an apartment and don't really know what has happened but you've got blood on you.
When interacting with other characters you have options for responses, which affect how the rest of the game happens. I think early on in a game a police officer knocks on the apartment door.
Later on in the game you're trying to break onto a military base camp to rescue a group of kids that have been held captive.

And that's about all I can remember at the moment

No problem, glad I could help. I was just talking about James Pond a couple of weeks ago!

I remember this one game I used to play at my childhood friend's house for the N64... It was like a part sidescroller, part RPG. The only part from the sidescrolling I remember was jumping over barrels that enemies (I remember the enemies to be like knights, with armor and all) threw at you and, at a later level, killing lamps, but as for the RPG aspect I remember a village, and there was a bridge that you can jump off and land in the water and swim around. The art style was in a cartoon fashion and the character was sort of an anime-ish kid, kind of like Ness. I'm not sure if it was up to 4 players, but for sure it was up to 2. If you can help me recover the name I'll love you forever
