It must have been fifteen years ago at least. It was a 3D game (with very cartoonish graphics) where you could wander around this city and rob buildings. Very puzzle-based, with guards that followed a prescribed path. If I remember correctly, you'd record your moves, then play it forward and see if your plan worked. Anyone remember this one? It's been bugging the hell out of me and I don't remember quite enough to pin down the name. The game was for the PC.
I would be happy if someone recognize game but as me can't remember name to write something more about it... also if u need some more info. please ask me, i don't know what more to say about it, but if you ask question maybe i remember something new that would help us find out :)

I would really like to find this game, i'm looking for it more than 2 years now :(... thanks for any future help

A:

It's not Heist :(
It was a single robber

Q:

Was it 1st person or 3rd person? What did your character look like?

A:

It was 3rd person and you played as single robber, also it was cartoonish... A character remind me to Gru from "Despicabble me" movie, but maybe little thiner than Gru.

anyone?

Hi everyone!
So I remember playing a game on my laptop in like 2007-2010 and it had zombies in it or something like that. You would start off with a pistol and there would be zombies or monsters and you kill them. You spawned outside and there was a house where you can go inside. There were many Monster Boss fights and the graphics were not really good. I remember when you're holding your pistol it will show you the amount of bullets you have by showing a picture of each bullet and every time you shoot, you lose one. Get it? And I think but I'm not sure that there was a story. There were kind of like stages with monsters inside the house. Can someone please help me find this game!

There's "The Sting!" (2001), made by Neo Software, an Austrian developer. So it's not too well known outside the
German speaking demographics of gamers, I guess.

Hello, i need help to remember this game. It starts in winter at forest as a women with pet(dog i think) you go along path and there are so many signs, after that you spot cottage, you can enter it, there are bowls, piece of papers i think. If you go to the back of the cottage. You find fishing rod and you can hunt fishes but after that the bear(or grizzly) appears on front of cottage, you must give him a fishes i think. You can look at him through the window. Bear was still going around. And that's all i remember, i think there was a sentence at the window. Anyone please? Sorry for my english, i am from Czech Republic.

The game was released around 2000 to 2008.
It was a demo version.
Platform is Windows 2000 or XP.
Yeah, this pretty much describes a scene of "Syberia 2" (2004), quite far into the game though.

With the third game of the series being out, prices are quite high though.
https://www.indiegala.com/store/product/syberia-bundle/8224
This is among the cheapest atm. But if you wait, the first Syberia games can be had for way under 2 bucks each at sales.

I need help

I remember playing an old nintendo game where your main goal was to go to your "girlfriend's" house but there was this other guy chasing you and you could also collect fruits as you try to go to the top. The characters weren't people from what I remember it kinda looked like the ghosts from pac man (I'm not sure). There was this other version that you were mario and luigi was the one chasing you. Please help me find the game I have been going through different lists of Gameboy and NES games but i cant find it.
Would that be Nuts & Milk [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eqXTAWePsAs]?
I just checked it now and you're right. Thank you!

I'm looking for a game from near 2010-2012 times. It was about collecting and training digital robotic bugs, and you could also battle them with other bugs. It was kinda like Pokemon, and you were able to buy a sort of handheld device for playing the game from places like Toys R Us and the such. It also had a PC version later on in it's life which was discontinued.
BAMZOOKi?

i honestly cant remember very much about this game. it was sometimes in the 90's. and it was somewhat like a simcity type of game except there were like floating masses or rocks that you would build building and things on and connect them together with red or blue piping of some kind. i think it also had rts aspects to it as well as building things up. sorry i cant be of more help.

Don't know if I can give enough details for someone to help but it is definitely a PS1 game. You have to help this kingdom of floating isles from sinking. There are four isles and each one had it's own element, the first one was wind. You fight through floors with little puzzles and I think you could avoid the enemies on the map if you didn't run into them. Part of me thinks there were crystals involved but not 100% sure.
I only made it through the first isle and remember having to move stones or something a certain way so the air could blow through correctly and thus keep the wind isle afloat.

Im searching for an old platformer game which I probably played on Windows 95 or 98. I vaguely remember a knight-like character which could jump up and down platforms and attacked monsters coming from left and right. In the boss fight the boss would explode into gold coins and treasure. Any help would be greatly appreciated, been trying to find this one for a long time.
I know the bosses in "Gods" (1991) do that. But it's probably not a real uniqueness to the game.

I can't seem to find this game anywhere, even though I feel like I remember a lot about it...

I played this game on pc around the early 2000's, and I remember that the character you play gets shrunk down to the size of a bug (I think you were being mean to the bugs in the yard or something) and in order to get back to your normal size, the Queen bug tells you that you have to help out the other bugs in the yard. There's a few different games you have to play in order to help them, and as you help them you're able to go back to the Queen and go inside this tree or tree stump, where these badges you collect are, and you can slowly advance up the tree and get back to your normal size.

It's driving me crazy trying to remember the name when I used to play it so much as a kid. Any help is greatly appreciated.
That's probably The Ant Bully.
I checked and I don't think that was it... It was a little older than that movie was, and it wasn't just ants, it was a ton of different bugs too :/

Hello Guys,

I am trying to find a game i played in the 2000's, it was the same genre as civ wars, but it wasn't free and you had to download it to your pc. I think it was in BFG but i'm not sure. Other things i remember is that the game was kind of cartoonish, medieval and there were up to 4 factions (red, green, blue, yellow). Any insight is greatly appreciated. Its not Populous the Beginning.
Thanks

UPDATE: Found it, its called LandGrabbers

Hello everyone)
Here's the game i want to find:
It was developed in ~2000-2007 for PC. It's a third-person action(/adventure?) game. There was a guy and his monkey friend(can't remember who was the playable character lol). One of them was kidnapped by a bad mage guy and another one is you. You need to save your friend by passing the 4 stages. At the beginning you can choose one of 3 different stages: the winter, some kind of desert, and the islands with pirates. Sorry, can't remember much from that times, but these are the main details. Thank you :D

Hello,

searching for a windows xp game, played it back in 2005 I think.
It was a jump and run/platformer game, the main character was blue and there were bombs that would run towards you, if they spot you.
There was a level where you had to jump from platform to platform inside a tree.
Thats all I can remember right now. If I remember more, I will edit my post.

Thanks in advance.

ALRIGHT! This has been driving me nuts. 15+ years old, the game was a scifi/empire building game. You start out with a single planet and you mine, gather colonists, expand, etc. Nukes and bio weapons that you dropped onto other empires planets and then took them over. Some of the ships were ship-looking, one was a smiley-face... Uh... Shields and combat, in order to get from one part of the grid to the other you had to get a jump-drive... It had a random automated chat that the other empires would occasionally use to taunt you. The planets you dropped colonists on would start out as a small dot but would increase over time and the dot would grow... Uh... I know this is lame and not a lot of help. Anyone?

I don't think it was a published game with a box or whatever, but an indy developer.

Sound familiar at all?

I'm on my phone so I can't give a link but that's most likely 'Billy Blade and the Temple of Time' I loved that game :)

Hi everyone!
I've been following this forum and it's amazing!
Hopefully you will be able to end my 10 year search for a game. I mean, seriously, 10 years...
So, it's a PC game in 3D, I had it from some magazine in the late 90s, early 00s.
It can be played by 1-4 people, local. You play with some bird-like characters, flying around a long twisted tube (the World) to collect yellow crystals. Your objective is to collect them all. There are enemies, Red and Purple spheres (just like Pacman) always opening their mouths as they go along the tube. Each time they touch you with their mouth you lose all the crystals you collected. There are also purple crystals that make the enemies shrink for a while, so you can pass on the tube on their side without being attacked. There are in some levels portals that take you to a different part of the map.
The only name that comes to my mind is Bonanza or Bonzaga, something like that.
Please make my 10 year suffering end.
Thank you all :)
