Reposting,

Hey everyone, I just made an account simply for this thread.

Back in the year 2003-2004 when I still lived in Germany (maybe it's a German game) I used to play this Pacman-like game on the computer.

It was different though. The game had no ghosts, and you were being chased by these pacman-like creatures with sharp teeth (who were typically green or blue in color if my memory serves me right).

The objective was to clear the level and save a "princess" type character who looked like a white chip with eyes and a yellow outline. So, something like this but with two vertical black or blue lines as eyes https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/7/78/Cercle_jaune_100%25.svg/1000px-Cercle_jaune_100%25.svg.png

These memories are very vague, since it's been over a decade. You'd be a hero if you found it.

Hi guys,

Another one. A long time ago I used to play this pc game where you could fly with all kinds of airships and animals (like a flying carpet, an eagle, a classic airship etc). You could get loans to buy upgrades for your weapons and gear and such.
With the animal/flying machine of your choice you then had to play matches against the computer. This could be capture the flag, tag, deathmatch etc.
Later on in the tournament of the game you could choose to join one of two alliances. One would be a sort of dragon riding team where you could ride two headed dragons and the other one was more with classic overpowered airships.
It looked a lot like that guns of icarus game, but it definetly wasn't that. But it was pretty steampunky of sorts.
I never got around finishing the game and would love to play it again.
Heaps of thanks if ya'll could help me out

What I'm looking for is an old platform game i played as a child on my old Macintosh computer.
In this game you play as a small fat American guy with a big belly. The objective of the game is to save your monster friends(?) that some how got spread out over the states of America (In some kind of explosion?).
Each level is a normal platformer game where you get a chance to save one of your monster friends in the end ( you can fail this and still continue to another state without saving that specific monster).
The hero was dressed in cloths that had the American flag on them and had some kind of belly attack.
Also i think the hero was traveling in some kind of trailer but I'm unsure about this.
I hope someone will remember this gem

That would be Arcade America.

Thanks alot for this! Almost lost hope to find this game. This really made my day

Hi all

The game i wanna find is about puzzle picross-like game. it's an old one (I think similar like 'Ancient Mosaic' at that time, like 'Zuma' time ). It's in PC but I can't remember the developer of the game either.
It's 2D where you have to put blocks in destinated place to complete a picture. I think it's egypt theme related. You play as a little guy throwing off small blocks from the side of the unrevealed pictures.
The puzzle is really hard because if you want to put blocks in the middle you have to put unused block (it's red colored) to be a 'wall' so that the right block can be put (blue blocks) and you can repull again the red one (the wrong one).
The game can give you the solution to move to next picture.

You guys are awesome! Thanks a lot for helping me on this ^^
Sorry for my bad english

Hi!

I am looking for an old mining/strategy/crafting/survival game.

It was a full PC title and no browser- or indie game.

The game was fully rendered in 3D but the area of play was a 2D plane.

It was released between 2000 and 2005 (+/- some years).

You did not control one character alone but instead had command over a whole family/clan of little people.

The characters that you ordered around were gnomes/goblins of some kind (brown/grey-ish skin color and big heads).

You did not have direct control over the guys and had to set orders and rely on the (buggy) AI.

The survival elements were life, food and sleep.

There were dangerous plants on the surface and monsters as you dug deeper.

You could excavate an area underground to build some kind of house/reinforced area.

You could build elevators.

You had to set shifts for you guys and also professions like miner, cook, builder, etc.

Any hints as to what the title is are very welcome.

Thanks,
Senshi

One NES game i cant rememeber the name of: you were walking through levesl and hat to collect hidden cards, which in the end of level you could use to defeat a boss, the first one was a witch/frog like creature. There were levels where you had to use a skateboard, on one you were using a pogostick, that level in particular was made of lego blocks, and then on another level you had to fly i think. If somebody knows the name i would appreciate it a lot.

There was this one pirate game i used to play with my brother.. I specifically remember the pirates having no arms, the game being turn based, and throwing around pirates... A menu popped up in your face on your turn i think....

Hopefully, someone can help me, I have searching for a game I have no idea the name of months since it popped into my head. I remember playing it when I was just a bit younger although I'm almost sure its older than I am. It's a space exploration game where you begin in a ship that has a view port to the outside space and a console screen with many options on it. The ship looked like a rectangular box with a dome on top through which you could exit and look around at the space around you. It used some mouse but mostly keyboard controls and had pixelized graphics. You could name stars and planets as well as explore them, although I don't ever remember there being anything on them. I remember also that you could trade planet and star names with other people through files. The ship had several speeds including lightspeed and I think travel time was semi-real and took a while to get from place to place. I vaguely remember the name containing "GO" or some reason but I'm not entirely sure. If you guys require any other information I'll try and help, It's driving me mad that I can't find it. Thanks in advance.

I don't have much detail but I remember playing a game around 2001 or so where you could pick between a few different types of races and then you'd build your troops up and conquer(or try to for me lol) the computer's land. One character was a demon like guy that when moving around the world map was some flying black thing. I believe he would say Death To The Living when I'd attack another square. The graphics were actually pretty good for it's time and one of the races you could be were elves. It was turned based I know for sure and was an offline game. The computer could conquer your territory as well and I lost ALOT.

Hi all,
I'm looking for 2 games actually:

1) A very old game, that i used to play at my grandparents (i think it was on an apple 2 or something; but might have been "normal pc" as well; i know they had the old apples, but i do seem to remember colour, so i have no clue). It had a kind of "astroids" feel to it, you controlled a little ship, that you turned and moved forward or backwards to get around and shot at "bad guys", you could buy upgrades as well i believe. The cool bit was that your levels or worlds were actually the folders and files on your computer or floppy disk.

2) A turn based strategy game with mechs from somewhere near the end of the nineties i think. It had cartoonlike graphics. The story was about the main character being a prince of some sorts and an evil army took over the lands and you escaped in your mech with dragonsymbol (dragonpower). You gathered other hero's along the way with other powers. I remember their being a mech who shot black holes and another with waterpowers etc. Last battle the first attack of evil overlord basicly whipes all other mechs cause they aren't legendary like your dragonmech turns out to be after an uprade halfway through the game...

Thanks for the help, i've been thinking about those on and off for years now

I need help in discovering the name of this game. I know it was "reviewed" by TotalBiscuit years ago but I can't find it.

The game would let you start with a male or female characters, in which you had your own castle that could be upgraded by buying some objects and it also had a land surrounding it.

Some of the features included a Guillotine, and a Pit Monster where you could throw characters in. A tentacle would come out of the pit itself and drop the character in case he survived against it.
If I remember correctly from time to time there would appear in your city bandits and warriors that you'd have to defeat.

Can anyone help? Thanks.

Hello, I'm looking for a pretty old game for windows.
You were playing as a frog and had to jump on cars and try to cross the road or something, also remember there was some french food truck and if you jumped on it you got grilled and died. It was pretty nice graphics at that time.
Does anyone know what game that is?

Not sure on the exact title, but a good place to look would be the Frogger series of games, there seems to be a lot of sequels on many platforms. The year you played it might narrow down the search.
