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

Ok, so I played this game like 15 years ago? I remember that I only played it demo. The game was given to me when I bought a Level magazine (it had 1 full game and many demos).
So the game was a strategy one, you had a castle ( that was seen kind of small, like you see your city/castle in the nowdays mobile strategy games) and when it was under attack the troops would automatically exit the city to defend it ( depending on the level of the city more units would be garisoned). In order to capture a city you had to kill all units and get the castel hp to 10% ( or around that).
I remebemer that there were some mines( for resources) random placed on the map and you had to take them in order to make resouces). This resources field were also taken by attacking them until they got to 10% hp

okay, so there was this game I used to play on my pc around 10 years ago.
The character was a boy who could only go/run left or right and you could only see his profile, it was a like a side view perspective, 2D.
The game started in a kind of a natural environment, I remember trees and probably animals and lianas and this boy collected fruits. I think he had no weapons, you could jump or stoop to avoid animals and other enemies. There were hidden passages you could see and thenn had to discover how to get there. At the end of every level there was a portal and maybe there were other portals mid-level as well. The last part of the game took place in sci-fi surroundings with frozen handles where he had to set this girl free and maybe even fight a boss, but I'm not quite sure.

Hi everyone, I've been looking for a specific game for years and what makes it more complicated is that I can only remember the beginning, and one specific stage of it and I'm not sure if it's accurate.

I think it started with this guy who was in an alley way and these monsters attacked him and I THINK he had a weapon for an arm. He also may have had this girl with him.

All I can remember for certain is there was a stage where he had to find this girl and he went into this house that was made of candy. He couldn't save her though and after the boss fight she disappeared and the girl was talking about her staying "In this house made of candy".

I really hope I didn't imagine the whole game which is possible...

But if someone can recall the game and tell me, I'd really appreciate it.

A game i played somewhere in early 2000s. A space game, cell shaded. The spaceships were galleons, muscle cars, VWs, a van, maybe even a school bus. You could buy different weapons and systems for the ships. There were 3 races, i think. It was like a space trader rpg, you could land on space stations that had neon signs. Been searching for 2 weeks through images, websites, lists. Cant find anything. Please help an old man out!

Hey don't know if this has been guessed yet but I vaguely remember this game I used to play on GameTap in the mid to late 2000's
-It was for sure a 2D platformer
-I think the main character was a boy
-I think the plot was about saving his sister
-Had 8bit-ish graphics but they looked good(at least that's how I remember)
-I can sort of remember having to restart the whole game when you died or something similar
-I vaguely remember the final boss being two flying vampire things
-I can't remember how you killed enemies but it might be by shooting
-I feel like the graphics were similar to Kirby in the way the bosses and environment was done
-Had very good music(again that's how I remember it)
Sorry for my bad memory
Please help me find this it has been killing me for months

Except for the plot and the final boss, this sounds suspiciously like I Wanna Be The Guy...

Wow 800+ pages. I remember a turn based strategy game from some 90s shareware bundle cd for windows. It was a Gulf air war game. You had 20 or 30 turns to soften up a list of targets to satisfactory levels (communications, republican guard, scud sites, front lines) and you would match them up with which unit you wanted to attack that enemy (cruise missile, a-10, f-15, f-16, f-14 etc) and fly 1 sortie per turn. Typical 90s graphics. I can vaguely picture it. Map of Iraq and Kuwait, pop up menu... vague I know. Any clues?

According to TV tropes, games with gingerbread (or any other type of edibles) houses in them include Saga Frontier for PS1 and Merc Storia for Android and IOS. I doubt that's even a remotely complete list, but it a start.

Hello

I think this was a racing game.So my last memory of this game goes like this : i played it on pc year was 2000 or 20001-2004 i think and the game featured robotic characters who had a sphere or ball instead of feet and you would race versus them on an obstacle course,there were also arrow indicators on the map like need for speed or other racing games,when you would jump off an ledge you would quake and distort the ground upon impact.Also i remember two of the levels were called Military Arena and Galaxy arena

Anyone know more info about this game ?

Could that have been Kinetica?

People, I'm trying to remember a game where an alien attack takes place, you're in town, you have to defend civilians from the aliens' attacks, you also have to deal with aliens robots, and the UFOs were disk format, and they destroyed the buildings as in the movie Independence Day, it's a 3D game, I remember playing it in an arcade at a mall near the house. A long time ago, about 18-20 years, I only remember the details.

Hi, I've been looking for an old game I use to play as a kid. It is very vague to me but one of the most fun games I have ever played.

You play in a Sci Fi world, with different creatures and monsters. As a 3rd Person Character who gets around in a jetpack you complete missions and kill monsters according to your level. You can also turn into the monster when you get to a certain level. There were flying monsters to roly poly looking monsters. One of the monsters you can turn into looked like a frog with long legs and you can travel very fast. The graphics were not cartoony (or tried to be) looked more like a WoW kind of Graphics. The website that hosted the game also had a futuristic style racing game.

Hi, I'm looking for an old pc game I played between 2003-2008, I don't think it was made for console. I could have found it on a games collection cd from a magazine or downloaded it online, but that wasn't a game you would find in a physical shop. Probably it was free.
It's a top-down 2d shooter, but the story should be the main focus of the game (so it makes it an action - adventure game). It should be futuristic. The main character you control is something like ball-shaped and I remember he had a weapon. There could be some change of pespective in some scenes as you go through the game, so it's not always top-down. It has 3 episodes: 1, 2 and an xmas special (less important). The second episode begins with you leaving your house and something like a meteor falls above it and destroys it.
Unfortunately I can't remember anything else, I hope to find someone who played it as me so that he should recognize it as he reads.
Thanks in advance.

Sounds like "Killer is Dead" (2013) to me.
What a crazy game, but in a good sense, hehe.

Hello, i'm looking for a game I used to play in my childhood from a PC gamer disc, the game was kinda a Mech-Simulator game. The demo map was looking something like you were on mars/ a red canyon where you could operate a big turret to shoot at enemies and i remember the turret looking something like this (https://sketchtoy.com/68528894), I remember games like , The Hive, Heroes of Might and Magic 2, Hexen, Midtown Madess, Diablo 2, GTA were on those PC Gamer Demo CDs i had. Maybe someone out there know even tho i provided so little information.

Is this an Incredible Machine game? You can use all kinds of items (including mice) to get your object to the goal, and a lot of the BGM was classical music.

Maybe it's the "Incoming" (1998 and 2002) games.

I've been trying so hard to think and find about this game. It's a quite girly game I guess where they will be a few characters that you have to move them to push blocks (sometimes into the water so the character can cross it) and the characters have to turn on and off switches/stand on buttons to help another character to get to a point. The characters have to collect some kind of fruits(I forgot what but most probably fruits). The venue is kinda like in the sky and if u push the blocks to the side it will fall down from the floating land. It's a 3d game. Please help me to find this game! I've been struggling for years. Thanks in advance!
