Ok guys, this is going to be so hard that probably no one is going to be able to help me with this.
I remember playing a platform game when i was really young, probably 6 to 8 years old. I played it on the first pc my parents got me, i dont even remember if it had windows 95, 98 or 2000. The computer had no internet connection so i was only able to play like two games. The game had a jungle level with all kinds of enemy's all around. but i can only remember one. it was something of a robot on tracks and it had some sort of a minigun as a weapon and a skull as head. I think there where different levels but i was never able to get to the next one. on the top right of the first level there was a door, but you needed some kind of key to get through it. when you got through the door you would encounter two or three of those robots. now after like 12-14 years i really want to know the name of this game, i have searched for it for a long time, but i think i haven't been able to find it because there aren't a lot of people who played it.
I would be very happy if there was someone able to help me <3

Hello all, just made an account to find the name of an old game I have been searching for for quite a while. You all seem to be a smart and helpful bunch, so hopefully you can assist me completing this, my seemingly eternal quest.

The game in question was installed on a Windows 95 PC and I think didn't actually require a disk to play it (it was pre-installed/ready-to-play on the machine), but may have been on one at some point. The game I think was a sci-fi/space first-person shooter game, and I think I remember being guided along a possibly-protected path (mentioned later) by a female (computer?) voice through the level that I remember (perhaps a tutorial level?).

For the level I think the player starts off guided and without any weapons initially, being introduced to gameplay/story elements and especially the enemies (akin to Halo CE). I think the level took place outside on a orange/red-coloured planet surface (mars or hell possibly? - kind of like Doom) and the player is guided along a path where he can observe enemies (with relative safety) from behind transparent/invisible shield walls or glass on either sides (like an aquarium viewing tunnel), safe from enemies getting through and projectile damage.

I believe the enemies were aliens or demons (similar looking to Doom/Duke Nukem 3D base enemies in my head) and that they were in battle with each other or (more likely) human soldiers on the planet surface (humans likely were inevitably slaughtered). Furthermore I believe I recall that the player could interfere by walking through the shields/glass out into the battlefield (with the female voice perhaps warning you not to or telling you off for doing so), but the enemies were very dangerous/quick to kill, possibly because you may have not been able to defend yourself without a weapon of your own.

That's about all I remember from the game, but feel free to give suggestions and ask me questions if you can. Thank you all and good luck with the search! All help will be much appreciated. :)

So, I vaguely remember a game that I played on my dad's computer. It was an arcade style game that would stay on one screen per level until you defeated the enemy. One of the levels was a snow level with a fat Asian guy in a white robe that would fly across the screen . And I feel like one of the other enemies was a girl that would throw shurikens at you. And the third enemy was an arbitrary character. But I remember distinctly that there was only 3 boss type enemies that you would fight over and over again one at a time. Thank you in advance.

I remember playing this game around 2007 on my laptop. It was a game where you played as a Godzilla type mister and you would have to destroy a movie theater and see how many points you could get. I don't remember if you had to avoid enemies or if it was just about destruction. I looked it up and it's not Rampage or Godzilla destroy all monsters. I think you might be able to change monsters after you passed certain levels. But I distinctly remember first level being a movie theater. Thank you in advance.

Hello everyone.

I'm trying to find the title of a PC game I played a long time ago. (End 90 early 2000?)
That's what I remember:

The view is in 2D, the main character is a purple ball that must recover in a diamond mine by avoiding stones and lava that spreads little by little towards him.

The game looks like Boulder Dash.
Thank

Hello.

I am looking for a one game a played as a kid.
- Isometric RPG (MSDOS or Win 95)
- Fantasy themed
- Released Around 93-97
- You have three characters in the begining
- When one character die, you continue with another one
- Dialog is displayed using text on screen over characters
- You start in a area with statue with three horses
- You start in the city directly on right on you is tavern
- Item from enemies drops directly on ground

When i see some old screenshots of Ultima 7, i really thought it is it. Looks totally similar, but it not it. You start in a totaly different area.

Thanks for help

Hi there!

Looking for a old game (at leaset 18 years) that looks a little like rpg and a little like rts.
You control a small party of heroes and can hire (buy?) catapults and balists in the town.

Hey, this isn't a game I've played to be honest- but it's been driving me mad none the less. All I really know of it is that there was a (Secret?) ghost or something that would appear if you leave and re-enter a room over and over, or maybe it was turn the lights on and off?

It was like a 2d indie game, sort of looked like Earthbound or Mother, and the ghost was black and white. I think the ghost was quite well known as a creepy little easter egg, which is why I'm surprised that I can't find anything about it now.

Thanks :)
That would be Yume Nikki. The "ghost" you mention is called Uboa, and it appears sometimes if you turn the lights off in one particular room of the game , but if it doesn't happen you have to leave and reenter the room.

I remember this game about dragons. I remember the intro sequence all most perfectly.
The main character walks along a forest, when a dragon flies overhead and he follows it. He goes to a castle under seige,and the game starts. The name would be much apprecitiated

This was a vehicle combat game either on psx or PS2. It had pickups like to turn your car into a hovercar or a boat. One of the levels was a movie studio (or possibly an actual desert) with a giant mutant anthill in the middle of it, and another level in the grounds of a manor where you could hit a switch to flood the level with water, killing any player who didn't grab the hover or boat pickup or didn't get to the bridge. Two of the characters were a robot whose car I recall hovering by default, and a woman whose car was called Tsunami.

I remember this game I used to watch my dad play very vaguely, sometime around 2000 to 2003 or later, It was a RPG in which the player was a wizard/summoner and fought against another powerful evil wizard/summoner using damaging spells and summonig creatures which you were able to controll but you couldn't use weapons. You had mana and health that were displayed in "bubbles" kinda like in diablo. If you wanted to refill you mana either the player or one of their creatures had to stand on a round spot on the ground which gave them mana. I also remember that you could get new spells by combining plants or something like that. It's all very vague, I know... But maybe somebody knows it by chance.

I'm trying to remember a game for the Commodore 64, back in the 80s. I thought it was Dragon Slayer or something like that, but I saw google pics of a game by that name, and it wasn't what I'm thinking of. You played as a little guys with spears or javelins or something that you would throw to kill the enemy, which I thought were dragons but could be wrong. I remember the object being to get across the screen to a ladder so you could go up one level (something like 5 or 6 levels were all on one screen, no scrolling). Then you would go across to the other side of the screen to the next ladder. The point was to get all the way to the top. And the dragons or whatever would come down through the levels to try to get you, and you had to throw your weapon to try to kill them, which would sail through the air going down over distance. So you had to time it right so the weapon wouldn't sail over the enemy or hit the floor ahead of them. And I think it got harder the higher you got on the screen.

Hi to all!

I'm here because i really can't remeber the name of a game... i played it about 11-13 years ago, i can just remember that it was included in a DVD with a lot of demos.

the game i'm talking about is a 2D fantasy RTS i remember something like Lotr, but it's not, what i can remember is that there's a GIANT catapult that you must repair.

Please, help me :(

Trying to find the name of a game I played about 10 years or so ago on the PC (flash game). It was a top-down control your troops and destroy the enemy base before they destroy yours. The troops were a yellowish color if I remember right and was sent in china? I remember the bases had a Chinese look to them and the troops were made up of samurai and cannons. The cannons moved a bit slower than the people with swords. You got a certain amount of troops per level made up of different configurations. All troops could be selected by dragging the mouse over them making a green box or could be individually selected. I remember having to leave a couple troops back at my base as to guard it while I moved my main army up to attack because the A.I. could be tricky at times. Don't believe there was any online modes... Additionally, while there were dirt paths to follow you could sometimes sneak people across a hill/grass to take the win.

Would appreciate any help!!! Sorry about this being a bit confusing, twas a long time ago.

Hey so I desperately need to find this game, it was on friv a while(5 years or something) and it was a 2d flash game where you would control soldiers but you could swap and control each individual one,you could buy units later on like veterans and tank and heli operators and could update their stats throughout in your quest to destroy the enemy.PLS SOMEBODY
