Once upon a time in the early 90s I was handed a game to play. I remember little of it but I guess since my own search has been fruitless I thought I'd ask the hive mind.

Pretty sure it was on the sega genesis but I also had an NES,.

Game play was on a battle grid, moving characters to fight monsters in a very final fantasy tactics or tactics ogre style.

I think it was linear as I remember very little of what happened between the battle maps.

I think there was a character with wings,.

I'm guessing it came out between 1990-95.

Please help

I'm thinking either Shining Force [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pewTGCkt4qE], Shining Force II [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q6Zj7kHEn9A], or possibly Warsong (a.k.a. Langrisser) [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xcmIXw7BrO4].

I remember an arcade game where you play as a small brown haired wizard wearing a blue cape/robe, in between levels you could buy spells to alter the way he shoots this has been bugging me for years.
Maybe Magician Lord [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YEzyNBfI6tg]?
Sadly no, the wizard was almost childlike in appearance, i think he had glasses. Thank you for trying ^_^
Oh yeah, I was just pointing someone else toward arcade games with blue-cloaked wizard-heroes... Same as them, I think you're looking for Willow [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LumZP0rpoDM], but it could also be Wardner [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cEClHhd9ieU] or Legend Of Hero Tonma [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EDp3OmqMZR4]. =)
It was Wardner ^_^ Thank you so much, been killing me for years.

Never heard of a game called Pioneer (although that does sound like the subtitle to an Elite game), but it sounds like you're looking for a multiplayer cave-flyer with Worms-style destructible environments, of which there were quite a few, mostly clones of Thrust with triangular ships. Try AUTS [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NBie3zA6Znw], V-Wing [https://www.classicgames.me/v-wing.html], Assault Wing [https://classicreload.com/dosx-assault-wing.html], or Rocket Chase [https://www.classicgames.me/rocket-chase.html] to start. Hope that helps with your search!
I appreciate your effort but I already checked those and sadly it's none of them.
I looked through entire lists of old dos games but I think it may be so old or obscure that I will never be able to find it again.

I remember an old online game that was a sort of Webkinz plush sort of thing. You would buy a plush that looked cute but you could turn it inside out to make it look creepy. You could use a code to put it into the game. The game was a 3D online game where you could press a button to switch between your two forms. I remember the mascot character was a blue creature that had rabbit ears and only two back legs. This was a PC game from around 2008-2010 I think.

Hi everyone! I have 2 games I used to play when I was a kid that have been looming on my mind for quite some time now.

The first one is a point and click game that I remember starting on a plane, the character (male) had like a hawaiian look and I think he was going on a vacation. We had to grab a parachute on the plane and jump off, landing on an island. After that I remember we had to go to the hotel. I don't remember much else but I remember some parts of the map including a river with a fisherman and the other one had a beach with a bar on the right side.

The second game, the only thing I remember at all is that it looked a lot like a Disney game because I think the character looked like Christopher Robin (from winnie the pooh) and one of the parts of the game we needed to get by a bear to get it's honey.

Hopefully someone can help me remember the name of both games! n_n
Just trying to highlight this so someone can help! ~

Old mage game you play from bird eye view. PC game.

I only played demo so I can't give all the information possible but I'll try.
You start from a village and there is one hut with a shop.
Enemies you encounter outside the hut takes you to levels you need to defeat to get free and continue in main world.

You need to find houses outside the village and and get keys or something to encounter the boss to proceed to next zone.(that was unavaible since it was demo)

Few enemies I remember.
Some kind of shrooms that shot some weird balls.
Shrooms with long legs and they were stronger and faster.
Some blue tiny things.
Purple enemies in water that dove and came back to surface to shoot some red things from their nose/or mouth.
Possibly moving man eating plants (not sure if remember correctly)

And the first boss was one of those purple water enemies but much bigger version and with some tentacles I think.

Long time of not being able to play it but I'd like to know if anyone knew better.

Sounds remarkably like Kid Mystic - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WeX-Q6VBHSs

Blue tiny things would be eensy weensies I guess?

Im trying to find games on windows 98, it was a disc with an 8ball on it, it had 1000 games in the title. I am look for a game also, it was a point and click games with demons you had to kill, all I can remember is that there were a bunch of people hiding in a barn, and when you died you were buried under a rock. Pretty sure the disc had Bad Toys on it, but the iso I found is not similar to it.

Hmm. Perhaps more obscure stuff, then, such as Gemfire [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=17zhSmUtr1U] or Master of Monsters [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ky0hrCdzrUM]?

Offering a $500 award to whoever can get the name of this game!




- I played this game about 10-15 years ago.

- CD ROM inserted which had a variety of miscellaneous games available

- One of the games involved choosing an NFL/Football routine where you could select as many team players and cheerleaders you wanted to be on the field, and select a movement routine for each character. For example, the cheerleaders had the option of waving their pompoms or doing flips in the air. Once you were happy with the way the routine looked, you would press the Play button and the characters would act according to the moves you gave them.
This game was a pixelated animation that included music and sound effects.

- Another game from the CD was a board that was set up, with a variety of tools down the side of the screen (on the right). The tools included a paint brush, eraser, mop (to make the board "greasy/ slippery"), etc. You could edit the board using these tools. There would be a marble looking ball that would drop onto the screen and move around the board depending on how you edited it.

I know the way I've described the games sound really random but if you've ever played this cd you'll know exactly what games I'm talking about!

Looking forward to some peace of mind!

Steenz
Do you know what OS it was? All I could think would be NFL Blitz 2000.

I also want to find out the name of a game again, It was a turn based game I believe closely resembling Aliens. There were a few characters, one being a female scientist an a robot. The scientist would slap aliens to damage them (lol) while the robot would use a taser. This was on Windows 98. The disc also contained a copy of Age of Empires. It also had Trespasser on it.

Well all I can really remember is you start off on a ship and I think it was the demo. It's a turn based game and the first enemy is a crab that you have to fight in this kinda small room of the ship. I think the demo ends shortly after so I don't have more info. Please help

Hey just joined this community and so happy to find others who love the classics :D This I have searched countless days for with no luck until I came across this site :D so I am looking for this game I am pretty sure it was either on Windows 95 or 98, Now all I remember from this game is being RTS alien based and one of the units looked like a toaster with a disc blade as a head ( lol Can't describe it better sorry :) ) which is used as a weapon as well ( I remember this being the enemy, I believe they were blue/purple and some yellow?. Also the resources where flower like which require to be harvested. There were also other alien type units with long arms which were cream-ish coloured but I am nots ure if I am mixing these with the Frythans on Seven Kingdoms :D Which btw is my all time favourite classic :DDD.

Anyone ever played this game?

I really hope anyone did...Need to play this game before the end of world tomorrow :pPPP

Cheers!

I remember a game where it was 2 players and it was like a battle between the red tiles and the blue tiles. I remember playing it with my sister on the snes. I know there was water or something around the map. My first thought of the name was battleship but it's not that game. If anyone can help me I couldn't be able to thank you enough
