I need some help figuring out this game. I believe it was late 80's and was for the computer. I don't remember it having good graphics, so it might be older. It was a first person maze game. You might have been able to see visually down five steps, let's say, but you could only see what items were on the step or two immediately in front of you. I remember seeing something like a skull or a ghost on the next step and backing up so I wouldn't have to fight him (or gather my wits before I fought him, I was very young playing this).

It *might* be Minotaur from Acornsoft, but I having a horrible time finding screen caps to confirm. The only picture I found (http://www.vintagecomputer.net/fjkraan/comp/atom/Control_Universal_catalogue_html/Acornsoft/img/Control_Universal_catalogue_minotaur.png) is very much what I'm thinking of, just better graphics than black and white outlines. Does anybody know where there are better screen caps or what games had a similar layout? Thank you!
Well Might and magic comes to mind, might and magic 2 on the snes pheraps? or any of the older ones?

PS2 Game, Early 2000's, it was a fighting game where you played as a group of bouncers I believe and there was a train cutscene. Help?

ok. im looking for an old PC game. i believe it was before '06. I remember its a war game where you command and build units and your control center is like a truck so you can set up your base anywhere on the map your on. To get money you had to harvest like green and blue grass with harvesters that you build. you could built numbers of units and attack other bases on the map like tanks and men. i have no idea what the game is called but if someone can tell me the name of this game please tell me thank you in advance.

Hey Guys!

I dont remember a game that I used to play when I was child. It was around '98 or maybe 2000.
I only play with the demo version of the game. You could choose from different caracters (an ALIEN, MONKEY, KENGUROO, and I remeber to a woman or something).
In the first level you had to climb on a big building to reach the helicopter on the top. You had to race.
You could throw things to each other while you was climbing.
Thats all I remember. Thank you if you can help me!

that is the exact game that I am looking for too..
it is not Crazy Climber , it is not Rampage

but I remember one more thing about it: it doesn't only have climbing stages
it also has a stage where you have to knock out other characters from a 3D platform , a kind of ring
the game had a championship feel to it

I hope some1 here will know this game because it is making me crazy that
I do not remember anything about it and I can't find any information about it
I really hope some1 knows whhat it is

Hey guys,
I really need help remembering a game. It was an adventure-ish game kind of like Guild Wars 2 but NOT online. It was on an arcade machine, but it looked nothing like an arcade game, It was 3D, good graphics for an arcade game if I can remember. It allowed up to four players on the machine. You were like a warrior put into a world where your goal was to go to the end, fighting your way through, until you reached a boss. It was mostly found in pizza parlors and other places that kids would play arcade games. I would really appreciate any help finding the name of this game that I could get.
Thanks so much,
<<This Guy

I can't remember a lot about it but I know that it was on one of the PS1 demo discs.
It had a versus mode where you could fight a com or a friend, and some of the people's abilities included shooting Ice, Fire and wind. Not much else I can remember

The game I am looking for is an old pc game around 98/2000. I am pretty sure it was part of some sort of game pack disc. The goal was to cover each map with your color before the computer did using weapons like cannons and bombs I think. I remember one map was a donut shape. Any help would be great. Thanks.

Is that Risk, the board game?

I remember playing a first-person point-and-click adventure game that had no color. It started off in a space ship; you would click on levers and doors to progress to that area. It wasn't a room escape or anything, there was no particular goal in mind. You just explored. You could go into mouse holes, kitchen sinks, really anything that looked like an opening could lead anywhere. Oh, and the game had no color, and I believe the spaceship was parked in a fish nebula. That is, the nebula was a giant fish. I appreciate any help finding the name of this game.

Any clue what system it was for? Or what era of PC you played it in?

PC/Mac game. Had to be before 1990, due to the dot-matrix printer look of the graphics. I keep thinking it was a LucasArts or Sierra game, but a search through a list of their games wasn't fruitful. I may have played it on an old Apple II.

Okay so I used to play this game where I was this green creature thing and he would put his hands above his head and he could control other creatures. i remember him saying things like "hey" "wait" "follow me" in like a scratchy voice. i remember playing it on my windows 2000 pc way back when. he could control other creatures and make them do things like open doors for him and stuff like that. i also remember he would make a grunting sound when he was angry. i played it all the time but i cannot think of what it was called.

Maybe this is too obvious, but... The Bouncer?

Massively overhyped as I recall.
