Hello, I remember playing this old-style shooting game where you were controlling a plane. You started off as red I think but you also had blue and purple colour style upgrades, if you took more than one of the same upgrade your plane would keep getting stronger for that colour. If I remember correctly red was a regular plane gun, and blue was a laser upgrade, can't really remember 100% what purple was but I think it was some laser that followed the enemy or something... idk wasn't a fan of the purple plane. Anyways, I remember playing it on addicting game, the plane would move vertically on the screen and I remember one boss was a giant battle ship. If anyone knows what this is called, I would really appreciate your help, I've been looking for a long time.
Except for the colors this sounds very similar to Raptor: Call of the Shadows.

Hello, everyone. I remember playing an old game, it was a sidescroller, and a pretty unfair one. You played as an alien. I know it has gotten a remake and in it you play as a pink rabbit with boxing gloves instead of an alien. It also had a really nice soundtrack and I remember it having a very weird name. I know thats not much Information to go on but it would be really nice if someone could help me ^^.

Hi!
I came to this forum (this is my first post!) looking for a game. It was a PC game I used to play back in 1999/2000, probably. I think you were a Mayan slave, and you were being framed for commiting a crime (but you were not guilty, of course), and so you had to escape. You kind of woke up and had no idea why they were accusing you. You found an old man and he talked to you, and when he stopped talking the line said "and he never saw him again". It was a 3d game that you played in pc, and at some moment you could play some mayan basketball where you had to get a ball in a vertical hole. It as very realistic (for the time, at least). In my memory it looks like a current 3d playstation game.
It's killing me, really. I was sure it was simply called "The mayans: lost city" of something like that but I can't find it, and every I try every couple of months.

Please help!
I think it wasn't Mayan but Aztec. And that's what the game was called. "Aztec" (1999), aka eg. "The Sacred Amulet".

Yes!!! This was it! Thank you so much!!!!!!
I just watched in in youtube and I can't believe it

Thank god this thread is still active!! Hi, guys!
Okay, so I've been trying to figure out what this game is for MONTHS and i just can't remember!! I can remember bits of it even the front cover, the back, and some of the gameplay, but i'm not entirely sure. It's like a math/science/educational game. The theme of the game isn't that typical "kid-friendly" with lots of colors and smiles and stuff. I remember it having dark colors and set in an old factory/laboratory. For the graphics, it's like a pixel-ish type with a hint of 3d? maybe like handdrawn graphics? Like i said, i'm not sure. This screenshot of another game i found http://kayleyebenhack.weebly.com/uploads/2/3/5/3/23538434/2084143_orig.jpg has similar graphics to it, but NOT the female alien on the left. The setting is similar (with all the pipes, and lab stuff)

I dont remember much about the front cover but it had like a kid or a student on the side. The front cover looks very dark blue and shows the laboratory/old factory setting. I do remember the back cover more. It had like a sewage/pollution pipe with dirty water coming out of it. There's also this (maybe) mad scientist with white hair (?? not sure) which is like the antagonist/villain in the game. I believe the game was released maybe early 2000's or late 1990's. My cousin only gave it to me, and i don't have it anymore (since we moved to a different country.)

I only remember a little about the gameplay tho. I remember seeing numbers or solving or division or a lot of math stuff much like the photo above. But there's this part that i really like where you had to solve this math thing, and you have to press like a button, and out comes a hybrid animal from a machine with white smoke. I remember seeing a moose and a bear and i remember seeing the weight listed on the side??? PLEASE I NEED YOUR HELP. i don't even know why i want to remember this game! it's educational and i don't even remember playing it many times, but i. just. want. to. remember. i tried all the keywords to look it up. i just can't find it :( help!

This is going to be a shot in the dark as I can't remember a lot of the details but I'll try to describe the game the best I can.

It was a PC game from the 90's (I remember playing it in the late 90's - around 98 or 99). It was a kind of side-scrolling platformer but I can't remember if you could kill enemies. I think it wasn't like a typical Mario sidescroller where you go from left to right - I think you could go upwards/downwards in the level and go different directions. It might have been more of an exploration platformer but I can't remember. The graphics weren't 16/32-bit or had that super-pixelated look to it, it looked fairly okay for its time. Maybe a bit similiar to how Rayman looks but more dark colors.
You played as a short creature that I think you could either choose or create.

There was an online option to play with other people but those were the dialup days and I remember it was difficult to get it to work. When you did get it to work, you could only see them in the level with you; I don't think you could communicate with them.
I think one of the first levels was a sewer/city level and later on there was a level inside a giant library.

That's all I can remember.

Theres a game i was like almost certain was part of the sims series but I looked thru the list of sims games and couldn?t find it

I cant remember if It started out with you cleaning up your apartment after your roommates threw a party or living in your parents house, but either way those were the first two locations. I guess the parents house one makes more sense. and the goal was just to make enough money to move into the next house I think

Im pretty sure i played it on the PlayStation 2

I've been trying to find a game I played as a kid, probably around 2005 or 2006. All I can remember is that it had 3D graphics, the main color palette was purples, greens, and oranges, and it had similar gameplay to Isoball, but had a feature where you could create levels and share them so others could play. There were different types of balls, like metal balls and bombs. There were blocks that were magnetic. Can anyone help me?

There?s this game I?ve been playing around 2010. There were three characters: a boy, a girl and some kind of a slug, snail thing. All I can remember is that they were cleaning a spacecraft of some junk. It was a 2D game with a bird?s eye view.
I?m from Poland if it helps anyone (it might have been one of these games attached to cereal boxes we have here)

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.

Hi there, I am finding a ps2 game but cannot remember much of the game due to only played like 5 minutes of it. What i remember was the main character is like an exorcist, and 1 of his attack is throwing talisman (paper). I forgotten what weapon he using, a pole? a sword/blade? The game is like Onimusha where you kills/exorcise the demons, and if not mistaken, the prologue is set on a shrine.

If anyone can figured it out with this little info, please tell me, thank you.

(Not sure when i played it, maybe between 2009-2011)
Anyone got any idea?

Hi i am looking for the names of 2 really old PC games that i played before as a child.I can't remember the game as a whole but only tiny parts of the game.

The first one had a dog(?) where it will say anything, literally anything you type. Yes words that do not make sense like "azsdfcvgbnmkl" but i am not so sure about vulgarities since its probably a kids game.

Another one is a puzzle game. I rhink you had to match 2 same pictures while faced down or back like those memory games. When u match 2 same switch outlet it will start singing. I cant remember what it sang about but i think it said something like concession.

And yeah thats about it really vague memory, I hope to find these games soon...

I looking for a game that I played 10 years ago or more on pc. Unfortunately I can't remember too much about the game but I guess that the game was released at the end of 1990s or at the start of 2000s (From 1995 until 2005). The game was a 3rd person game with a male character. The character had tattoos on his body (or writings). The game happend in a castle or dungeonlike place and your enemies were skeletons or some kind of weird creatures. In one of the game over scenes that i can remember very well, the charterer falls down on spikes, as he falls on them camera changes angels and shows him as the spikes go through his body.I would appreciate if someone can help me to find this game.
Nobody knows this game??!!

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!

My friend showed me this thread, hopefully it can help!

So I remember A LOT about this game, and I searched all over for it, but for whatever reason can't find it anywhere. I'll list the big things.

1. It was a mobile game, I played it on my iPhone 4s (I now use an android phone).

2. It was a platformer where you played as a bouncy ball that fell out of its owner's pocket.

3. I remember it being called "Roll On" ... and I KNOW that there was a sequel to it additionally, but nothing shows up when I go searching under that title, even when I specify that it was on the App Store for Apple.

4. It was very similar to 2D Mario games, where you kill enemies by jumping on them, and fight bosses in the same style.

5. I remember the main boss from one of the games (either the first or the second) being a dollar bill.

6. There were tubes that you would go into as the bouncy ball, and shoot through them, like something from a Sonic game.
