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

[Yoshika44]

I really need help here. It must have been early 2000s or late 90s when I played this game in primary school-on the PC.

It was a PC game set in a forest. The title was something like "evergreen forest" or "forest of greenwood". The visuals were a mixture of real photos and sorta 3D characters and stuff. The main character was a girl in a yellow dress with short dark hair- I think- although the game was played in first person. All you had to do was click on compass directions to navigate, the screen would change and there was a mans voice saying the compass directions-i think it was meant to be educational. You solved puzzles and stuff, and there was a guy I'm sure was in a purple mecha suit or something like that-like the villain in toy story-he was evil I'm sure. One time you had to pick up a sign or something but it was like "he's nearby" or something, and sometimes it would show his face on the screen. There was loads of characters, they were all on the front of the box for the game. There was a sun, and a talking tree who was really big and you had to help him. There was also a bit where you went into a shed or something and had to solve a code, and I remember we all used to get stuck on that bit. There was voice acting I'm sure, because of the man saying the directions and also the tree talked I think.

Please help! I hope someone knows this, I've looked everywhere...

First of all this thread is absolutely amazing!

I am looking for a couple of games that i vaguely remember from childhood. I think they were all on the Sega Genesis;

1. Witch and/or Wizard Sidescrolling game. I seem to remember it being outside, walking through woods e.t.c at nighttime and jumping to collect little things that i guess gained points or magic. VERY vague i know

2. A young hippo perhaps an elephant inside what appeared to be a room/nursery. I think the idea was to escape lol. I remember toys throughout levels. - FOUND THIS ITS CALLED The Ottifants

3. A top view of a helicopter that you flew through levels shooting, avoiding bullets e.t.c

Again im sorry. All i think were on my Genesis. Very vague and any help would be appreciated!

Hope you all don't mind me giving this a bump. It is a game I played on the computers at school.

I remember playing a 3D platform game on the iMac G3s at school around 2000 to 2001 in which the main character was a bug, an ant I think. Everything was scaled more or less accurately to how they are relative to real ants, i.e. blades of grass and plants were huge.

could you be thinking of a game version of one of the movies "a bugs life" or "ants"?
the timeline is about right for it

Hey guys,

There is this game I played - you basically control a tiny little ghost, wearing all black with a pale face and big eyes. It looks rather cute than scary. There is a big mansion, a garden, you can travel here and there, pick stuff up. The final boss is a clown, and you have to defeat him while on the roller coaster. It's in 3D, the graphics looked pretty good. I know it all sounds a bit weird, but if you can help me remember the name, would really appreciate it!

you got a year on that?
prolly a stretch but maybe grim fandango?

3. A top view of a helicopter that you flew through levels shooting, avoiding bullets e.t.c

Likely one of Desert strike, Jungle strike or Urban strike. All 3 were top down helicopter action games for the Genesis.

Well, I remember playing a game when I was very young over 10 years ago). I can't remember which game system/console I used to play it on, but it was most likely either Nintendo64, Sega, Atari or one of those handheld game things. Anyways, the character you controlled in the game was a baby, who I think wore a diaper. From what I can remember, you had to make the baby collect the fruit spawns which appeared on screen.. the baby was able to jump over water on to other platforms, I think he was able to walk on clouds.. There were also monsters, e.g. bats and stuff which hurt/killed the baby, causing you to restart the level.

The first level I can remember was in some grassy area.

The second level I can remember was inside some kinda cave..

The third level I can remember was some kinda ice area, where the baby would like.. slip on ice and stuff.

The fourth and final level I can remember was a boss level. The boss was some kinda big big, bear thing which was blocking a door. On the path to that boss, there are bats and stuff, think spiders as well..

Anyways, that is all of the content I can remember from that game. If anyone has any information regarding the name of that game, please post it. Thank you very much.

Guy I used to play a game where you would build a tank and it was found on miniclip. You could paint it, choose the chassis, buy items and has items like the claw, flamethrower, laserguns, etc. It was 3d and has leaderboards too. Its not there anymore I think :l.

Hello everyone. A long time ago, I was playing a game with my step brother. It was a car game that had some sort of soccer mode in it I think, or maybe it was a demolition derby mode. But when you hit the soccer ball or the other car, the cars made chicken noises. Like "BAWWWK" And such.
I would really love to know the name of this game, because I would love to play it again. If anyone has any idea what game it could be, that'd be great.
I apologize for the lack of information.
EDIT: Oh, and it was for the original Xbox if that helps anyone remember what game it is.

Sounds a bit like one of the FlatOut games?

Spoiler

OT: It was a game on a red demo disc for PS1 that took place in test chambers, and you could control gravity in some cases, and IIRC you could die and/or there were people that you could kill.

Perhaps you're thinking of Blast Chamber?
