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

Hi everyone

Keen for some help finding an old pc dos game. last played in '97 on good old windows 95.

All i remember is that it was a top-down/isometric arcade style rts game where you started with a castle, as did your enemy - the castle would autoproduce units which would leave the castle to make little houses - these in turn produced more units, which would do the same. You could then order attacks on enemies, the construction on barricades, bridges etc. You could also order your units to 'amalgamate' together to create super-strong units.

I also recall the different maps having different themes - one was fast food themed, so your units would look like fries etc. The icon on the desktop was a little dude with blue hair or spikes holding a sword up vertically. Have no clue as to the name and it's bothered me for years! How sad am I!

Hello again!

There is one more game I am looking for.

It is an economy game for PC & Windows, created around 1997-2001. IIRC, it's designed in an "campaign" mode (you need to complete one scenario to move to a next, more complex one), although I do not remember if there are many campaigns or just one. The player needs to build factories that produce certain materials, then other factories that produce final goods (the only example I remember is "nylon + plastic --> toothbrush"). I am not sure if transporting, distributing and earning money are part of the game (the goals could be "provide a certain amount of X"). At the beginning there were only a few materials and goods that could be produced, but as you progress (complete more scenarios) there is really a lot of resources and goods available.

Still looking for that game.

Hi everyone! I'm looking for a game i played around 2007. I remember only there i was a mouse who had to find a treasure in some levels... I remember there were more versions of this game, also one in the space with some little aliens.

And once again I'm going to post this game hopefully someone will remember it!

There is a dragon/crocodile in a tower/castle where you have to keep feeding it the foods it will think of, and when it thinks of hot chili and you feed it it breaths fire.

I hope that someone will know what i'm looking for!

Hi everyone,
'm looking for an old game I used to play on my PC back when I was a kid. I hope I will be able to refresh your memory because even I have very faded memories about this game.

I remember that the game starts at the old house where the main character (a young man) wakes up in a room and has a problem remembering what happened. Like he had some sort of amnesia. There is also his mother inside the house and they talk something for a while until he goes outside. He was in a certain village full with grass, trees and stuff like that. All I remember from that village was: first, there was a woman with a bucket of apples walking around and she wanted us to do something for her. Second, there was also house where the character's uncle was supposed to live in, however, you had to wait until 5pm so that you can enter that house because uncle wasn't there, nor was he there once we entered the house. Third thing I remember was having to leave the village but I wasn't allowed to do it so I had to wait for a nighttime to fall so I can sneak through the guards to leave the village (I remember there was a village-leaving cutscene where I sneak through the guard - the cutscenes were movielike). The second village wasn't like the first one. It was dirty, muddy and had pigs at the entrance. Also, there was a mission in the mines somewhere where I was attacked by some ghost. (Atleast I think it was the ghost).

Game is played from like a bird-view and I can't certanly say how the graphics looked because I don't really remember that. All I know is that the main character had some sort of a cape and his steps could be heard when he walked.

anyone?

"Dink Smallwood" (1998)? It feels like it might be the answer to every thirtiest request or so, hehe.

I can't believe that's not the one I'm looking for aswell. Seems like either it was rarely played game or my description of it is not very well. Screw my faded memory

Obviously I don't know the name of this game but it was a 3D pc browser game where you could hatch dragon eggs and train those dragons. There was also a wizard world where you could ride a broom, make potions, and use a wand where you can cast spells. There was a hub world too with like a giant trampoline.

If none of you can find it I still appreciate you trying thanks!

Can anyone find this game?

ISO:

Old MMO on PC, F2P may have had micro transactions
Late 90s-Early 2000s,
Cheesy as fuck but can't for the life of me remember what it was called.
I was a young kid so it of course appealed to me,
Literally was basically chicks with giant ass swords. Whole purpose was to make your sword bigger and more powerful
(Could get like enchantments that made them glow too)
And I'm pretty sure movement was a weird tile-based style, where you could only move one square at a time.
It was in 3D, behind the character view.

I'm trying to remember this game where you're a football player and you come into the locker room after a game and you have to steal someone's soap and then a towel and through the whole game you can't get caught and it shows where you can and cannot go.

Hello.

I have been thinking about this game i use to play at my grandparents house in the late 90's early 2000's. It was a kids educational game that you played as little green monster and I believe he had one eye and one horn. You went around this castle trying to free or help your fellow monsters. I remember there was a two headed monster and a mini game involving clouds and sounds I believe. I also vaguely either a hand mirror or crystal ball that you could look into and possibly fortune cookies of some sort. I've tried looking it up with no help.

I'm looking for the same game. Can anyone help us? I remember playing this in elementary school 2007-2009 around that time. And it's an English (the subject) educational point and click game. You go looking for your fellow kidnapped monsters inside the castle of the mad scientist that kidnapped them, like he said. You have to find bits and pieces of them or their clothing that relates to them so that you can bring them back because the scientist kinda killed them and spread their essence, but not really? The main character's biggest reason to go was because a mummy movie star that he likes was one of the people that was kidnapped. You also have a female ghost/spirit companion who follows and helps you throughout the game. And at the end or post game you can read a letter that details how she dies. The only thing I remember about the letter is that I think she sees either herself or her best friend who's dead break into her room.

There was this game I played when I was about 8 or 9 or 10, in 2011 or 2012 and I am pretty sure it was called 'Just Edit' but everytime I search it up, nothing comes up. It was basically where you were a little smiley face emoji and you would build courses for other people to complete. It had a similar layout to Terraria, but without the weapons, i think? I cant remember everything about it really. I really want to find it again because it was my life for a whole 2 years in primary school.

 

[Polaristherandom]

I played this game when I was about 6-7 (I was born in 1995, so it would be around 1999).

It's was an RPG with mechanics similar to final fantasy and the closest graphics I found to it is Gorky 17 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FCM4qC6E4Q4

You start off on a ship and when you leave I THINK you are on a mountain and you travel down it to get to the next area. I remember the first enemy you fight is a wolf and I THINK you pick up some sort of pipe to kill it with.

You do pick up a woman??? who becomes a member of your team.

I remember the game having a very dreary vibe, the ship you start on (if it was even a ship) was mostly metal and it was painted quite dark. I think it might have been click to move.

I wouldn't be surprised if it was impossible to find the game based on this limited information, but I thought I'd give it a go as it kept bugging me.

Thanks for everyones help

No it's extremely similar in terms of graphics but in the game you mentioned you start on a crash site, and on my game you start on like a metal grid surface and the wolf you fight is in a rocky snowy area.

Thanks for the suggestion though I'll keep looking

There's this game where i watched someone else play it and it's got this choice of being either a guy or a girl, you change throughout the game, i haven't fully watched the gameplay but i remember vaguely of the beginning, if you choosed the girl (who i think was tan) she would start chopping a tree and the first swing into the tree it gives the tree a mouth saying "ow, why'd you do that, stop cutting down trees... something something" and after some progress the girl gets dressed up along with i think 3 other girls as like sweets/cupcakes to get like sacrafice to this sea creature that chooses 1 of the girls. Anyway, as the guy he gets treated by his mother shaped like a sun (and his father like the moon only like visits him at night [of course]) like a child, giving him like kiddie breakfast and puts him on a train ride with all these like stuffed toys and he has to wake up this mountain so he like 'saves' these stuffed plush toys, and of course he gets sick of it and doesnt wake up them mountain thingo and falls into this pit of spikes which are like bouncy and soft, his sun mother comes and goes "oh no! are you alright?" like over reacting after he just bounced on the so called "spikes". That's all i vaguely remember from this game... any ideas?

"Septerra Core: Legacy of the Creator" (1999) is also a game a lot have played but forgotten later.

I am looking for a game on ps2 where you play a female human looking robot and you have to go and save the person who created you, later in the game it is revealed that if you are hurt your creator is also hurt.
And if I remember correctly the character you play has short black hair
