Old Games you remember playing but can't remember the name of.

[Edmond Lam]

Hi guys, I'm looking for a game that I played when I was young. It was a side-scrolling CD game on PC platform in the year of 2000s may be, actually I don't know about the release date of it. I've tried my best to remember most of the game details but I cant remember the name of it.

Although the game is side-scrolling game, it looks like 2.5D. The background is 2D picture but your character and the enemies are 3D image. It is a kind of adventure game, and you have a health bar and mana bar on the top left hand corner.
In the game you can choose 3 types of character, a young man with sword, a young girl with staff and a man using two-handed axe.
I remember some of the default button which are "Z" and "X", "Z" is using a light attack and "X" is a heavy attack.

There are several types of magic you can use, fire , ice, lightning and recovery.
Each type of magic divided into 5 levels, I only remember fire and ice.
Fire L1: Single fire ball drop on a single enemy (Auto targeting to nearby enemy)
Fire L2: Fire burning on the left side of right side (depends on character facing direction)
Fire L3: Lava blast at all enemies position
Fire L4: Large explosion (Area of effect)
Fire L5: Fire from the fire phoenix (Area of effect)
Ice L1: Ice Spikes appear at a single enemy's postion (Auto targeting to nearby enemy)
Ice L2: Ice Spikes appear at all enemies' position
Ice L3: Ice wall created on the left side of right side (depends on character facing direction)
Ice L4: Ice Storm (Area of effect)
Ice L5: Ice Age (Area of effect)

And here are the stage and the boss that I try my best to remember.
Stage 1 - Forest, boss: rock golem
Stage 2 - Floor 1
Stage 3 - Below 1, boss: ice drake
Stage 4 - Below 2, boss: 2 ghost
Stage 5 - Below 3, boss: skeleton mage(necromancer)
^And this boss I think is a main enemy of the game because my character need to talk to him before battle.
Stage 6 - Floor 2, boss: a flying, upper body, large skeleton with both scythe-shaded hand(hand bone)
Stage 7 - Floor 3, boss: fire drake
Stage 8 - Below 4

One more thing there are 5 different BGM in the game. Each of them is used for Stage1-5 respectively. And Stage 6 use the first BGM and so on.

I just only remember the stage name and the last stage that I reached is 8.
Please help me with this, it is a memory for me and I try my best to remember the details of it.

I played this game back in like 2007 or something and not being able to remember it has haunted me ever since.
Basically it was this game kind of like Pokemon where you had all these little cybernetic creatures and it makes it harder because I don't remember the names of any of them. I remember a few appearances though, there was a frog one and its tongue was this massive axe that it sliced its enemies with, and i'm pretty sure there was this woodlouse (roly-poly for you americans) thing with blades that basically spin-dashed into its enemies and I'm pretty sure there was this electric long millipede like thing as well. Whenever something died it burst into guts and blood but it wasn't red it was always really brightly coloured, I specifically remember Cyan and Yellow blood and guts whenever something died. It was for PC, I remember having it on my old shitty windows vista laptop.
The only other thing I can say is that it had this whole cybernetic theme going. Please if anyone knows what game i'm on about reply because its been over 10 years that i've been trying to remember this.

My hopes are low, but...

-Looking for a pc game, probably from the 90s. If not DOS, it was a very early windows cd-rom title.
-I think it had "quest" in the name somewhere, but I can't quite recall.
-2d graphics
-had separate rooms you clicked to move between, sort of like a point and click adventure.
-different rooms had different games you could play within them. one of them I believe was similar to Zuma, another had you as some sort of dog running around collecting bones and some other items while avoiding people.
-The games seemed a bit incomplete. I think it was a demo disk of sorts, though my young mind didn't realize it at the time, but not sure.

Sorry the details aren't too helpful. It's been a while.

Hard to tell, but I think you played a demo disk of various MECC published games, specifically MayaQuest Trial and Troggle Trouble Math.

Hello guys this one might be hard,
All I remember is playing it when I was 4-6 so about 11-13 years ago (game might be older) it's a pixelated rpg where you are on an airship (like an actual pirate shit with propellers and shit) and you start by searching the ship but then you go and kidnap the queens daughter (who then tells you she wants to be kidnapped) and then you leave with her and the queen orders you to be shot down. That is all I remember and the graphics qeren't 16 bit but weren't smooth either so like crono trigger in graphics.
It could have been any console (I had eveything from the atari to the ps2) i'm sorry I can't think of any more please help

Pretty sure this is Final Fantasy IX.

You are an amazing man I kept thinking it isn't Final Fantasy but of course im just autistic thanks so much man!

Hey all,

Naval warship game where you start out on a US Navy Destroyer or Battleship or similar, but by a stroke of fate get teleported into the future where you have to fight crazy futuristic warpships and scavenge the parts of each enemy you defeat to make your ship stronger. I think the overall goal was to return to the past (Samurai Jack) but basically focused on going bananas in the future with future weapons.

Pretty sure I originally saw this game as a review on Xplay c 2005? maybe later? I think it was for the PC? Maybe Xbox?

Any leads would be great. Been scratching my head on this one for years now.

Thanks

Some of the details are not quite right, but there were two PS2 games in 2004 and 2005 based on Space Battleship Yamato: Space Battleship Yamato: Iscandar e no Tsuioku (Reminiscences of Iscandar) and Space Battleship Yamato: Nijuu Ginga no Hookai (Collapse of the Double Galaxy).

The story with Space Battleship Yamato is that Earth is under attack by aliens. Humans are given a new type of space ship engine by a different set of aliens, but it's so massive the only ship they can retrofit is the Yamato, a Japanese WWII battleship.

Ok so I created an account just for this one game.Basically i played it like 10-12 years ago and it was my fav game at the time-I don't remember the year but i think I remember a few stuff.
-I think the game started with a loading screen that included a some kind of train passing in front of a brick wall
-Maybe but just maybe it was a few games included in one but I only played one of those
-It was a maze type game but as I remember it was pretty great quality
-You could be a female or male character
-You had to go trough the maze that was full of witches monsters and black holes
-I think you were even chased by something
-It had some kind of a white gray background to it
That is all I can remember but it was quite a long time ago and I was pretty small back then.I really hope someone knows the name of the game cuz I searched everywhere and I just can't find it but I really really want to play it again after all of these years.

I've been trying to find this game for some time.
I don't know if was late 90's or early 2k. it had a top down view maybe with some rpg elements,had some kind of city and you had a room to manage your items. it was a sci-fi game,there was aliens to kill,if i'm not wrong,on the end one of the first missions you had to run back to your ship. i believe it was somehow similar to Incubation: Time is running out.

Was it Septerra Core [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V2uEpQpPG1E], by any chance?

 

[Lee MH]

Hi folks. I've been looking for a game but I couldn't possibly find a single clue, so I decided to ask you guys about it.

- Date : around from late 90's to early 2k
- Platform : Windows
- 3D game with side view (you can move your camera through vertical and horizontal axis and 'zoom in and out' is available.)

- Story: a group of goblins dig through ground to explore underground world.
- You can craft helpful items such as ladders, campfire set, tents, etc.
- In the opening cutscene, one goblin walks to the excavation location and he hits by the falling 'lighting equipment'. That location is the starting point where the game begins. There's a mine at the right side of that location.
- Player can choose where to dig.
- I remember that this game not only supports English language but also support non-English language but I'don't know exactly what it is. One of the country in Europe I guess.


never mind... I found the game
The name was 'Diggles: the Myth of Fenris '

Hi, im looking for a pc game i used to play at my cousins house in the early 90s, could have been an 80s game. i remember the colours being very vivid, there were monsters that looked very similar to the monster munch characters in the 90s, ive been searching for this game for ages nothings come up, gameplay may have been you go underground in the game / you pick a monster and name it ... but not sure

https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/logopedia/images/f/f1/Monster-munch-sticker-4771-p.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20120424111620

i feel like i dreamt it sooooo annoying

Hello, I was wondering if anyone knows a name of a PC game I played cca. 10-15 years ago. It was a platform game, I was some little dog, looked like just a head of the dog, brown colour. It could jump on different floor levels, and when jumping the dog would say something. There were many levels to proceed to after you passed one. I don't remember what it was collecting. Maybe this will help: word Peg(/Peggy?) always reminds me of the game. Maybe a developer or name of the dog, but i couldn't find it anywhere.

Alright, this is all I remember.

There's this mystery/detective PC game from the 90's. There are 4 discs in the series, with the colours purple, blue, green and yellow/orange. For the purple game, you are somewhat guided through the game, receiving clues from minigames. I can't remember what happens at the end of it though. For the blue one, you have to use objects to put a ball in the hole and that would somehow help you in a way, but like the purple disc, I can't remember what happens in the end. The green and orange/yellow discs I have completely lost memory of. And the protagonists were either a frog or a mouse. I can't remember the antagonist.

Like I said, this is all I remember. If anyone could help, that would be amazing.

 

[hadz10]

There's this 90's PC mystery/detective game with 4 discs (each having a different coloured disc[purple, blue, green and orange/yellow]). I can't remember the protagonists/antagonists, but I remember some of the minigames from the purple disc.
One of them consists of a piano with different coloured keys and you'd have to figure out what sound it made by pressing the keys and listening to the sound.
Another one was when you'd have to make people feel better by giving them something to drink when they were hot and something to eat when they were cold.

Anyway, that's all I can remember. Please can someone help if they know a thing or two about it
