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

I am looking for a 90s game that was basically a Diablo ripoff. A top down hacknslash with inventory/potions/all the Diablo elements. I remember it having a sequel and a quite long title. It's middle-to-late 90s and it's a little lighter in tone. You could get purple armor if you were high enough level. were multiple merchants in the towns too.

This game has been pissing me off for super long, starting to lose sleep over it and everything. I played it on Windows 95 I think. Looking for it on google ends me up with MechWarrior, which I'm most certain wasn't it. The game was an fps mech game that took place on what looked like the surface of Mars. I can't really recall anything about what the gameplay was like, but the most vivid memory I have of it was the last part of it?s intro cinematic before the title flashed on the screen. The cinematic featured a giant mech that had a surprising resemblance to the mech on the cover of MechWarrior 2: Mercenaries, missile launchers on the back and everything, but what was different about it was that it had huge tank-tracks instead of legs, a bright red glowing visor on the front of it's blocky head and a pair of large machine gun-arms. I think it was also on the front of the cd and box art too. The sight of the thing frightened me as a kid. When it popped up in the cinematic it started spraying bullets everywhere while rotating it?s torso from left to right, as if it was spraying down a crowd. I also remember there being odd, grey rectangular air-crafts in the game, flying around through the air. Can?t remember what they did though, except you could sit in their cockpit for some reason.

Hey!
So I played this PC game in the late 90's/early 2000's. It only needed 2 floppy disks. It was a 2D platform shooter with a snowy/winter/christmas theme. 2 players could play it. The 2 characters were 2 roundy fury somethings(red and blue). You could jump around and use all kinds of weapons (RPG, SMG, grenade etc.) Also the characters had jetpacks. There were something like 10 levels some with water on it. The characters had a hat like this ( http://www.digitalsydney.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/Santa-Hat.jpg ).

There is a game that has been bugging me for years.

When I was about 13/14 I borrowed it from the library on my dad's library account. It was a pc game and I'm pretty sure on CD, I'm now 25 so it must be about around ten years old (2003 ish) but could be older.

It was medieval themed game in which you roamed around with a gang of people. You could walk through woods and villages collecting more people to join your gang but you would have to fight them first.

You could switch between characters to begin the fight with and lose members.

The main thing I remember so clearly about it was that you often had to fight/slay crocodiles.

You could wander round villages pointing and clicking to open things and collect treasures.

I am sorry that the description is vague but I only had the game for two weeks and would love to be able to play it again.

I think and I say think, the cover of the cd had a knight on the front but I could be wrong.

If anyone knows what game I'm on about it, it would finally put my mind to rest and I would be very grateful. Thanks!

Okay, so this isn't an old game, but I figured I shouldn't clutter the forum with individual questions. What's the game featured at about the 2:10 mark of this Jimquisition?

Very interesting thread!

I have been curious about a game I used to watch(obviously lol)a friend of mine play on his PC. This would have been around 2000-2005. Now this game reminded me some of the survival missions found in age of empires and the graphics and camera was also similar (top down). You actually played several monsters or demons. Some of them had ranged attacks and some were melee. You would start on a map and have to travel to the other end of it and there would be enemies hidden in the fog along the way.

I have tried to search for it several times to no avail, any ideas anyone?

Thanks for the help!

Hello Escapeist people.
Google appear to be no help on this one sadly, hope you can help

It's an RTS from the 90's. You build your camps like every other RTS game. You have chicken farms that produce eggs on the spot, that the villagers run over to eat. At night the women villagers say "Come to night!" and run into one of the houses with a male partner to produce offspring. If I remember correctly, the villagers could become old and die from age.

You could also "improve" your workers so that they would become faster at building things, but this stops them from being able to produce any offspring.

The soldiers only had one move sound which was "hmmmmmmmmmm...".

lol Nah man, that's not it. Thanks for the input though. I don't remember it being "anime" looking like that.

Edit: I'm 90 percent sure I found it. It was called Earthsiege 2. Lol, the intro isn't as awesome as I remember it.

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to remember an old point-and-click puzzle/adventure game. I only remember a few things about it:

-You were in an underground tomb (I remember and opening sequence where you fall through a hole in the roof)
-The theme was sort of Egyptian-ish. Heavy emphasis on stars/sun/planets.
-Some of the puzzles I remember:
-clicking on the rays of a sun shape to turn them different colors
-a tile-shuffling puzzle where you tried to get all the "suns" on top all the "skys" in the middle and all the "earths at the bottom"
-something with spinning planets.
-something with wavy lines and a musical staff that you had to click on in a certain order.
-I remember something called a Star-Lock(?). Maybe.
-I remember a long room with water on the floor and a circular "island" or stepping stone thing.
-Each time you entered a room you had to solve this puzzle with the sun earth and moon to turn the lights on. You had to click on them and they would rotate and you had to try and line them up so the light and dark sides made sense.

Not much to go on I know, but if anyone can help that would be great.

Thanks.

I need old game sadly i dont remember much.

ITs rpg or third-person-action game(for me its kinda similar or even same) for pc
its 2005 or older.
game begins that your family, or whole village was murdered by creatures who kinda remmebers orcs.

Not sure about that, but i think its judt posible to play female charakter, posible that charakter customization not existed at all(like in Rune pc game just male charakter)

Loot is kinda rare,not like in skyrim or dragon age where you can find loot anywhere, and lot of junk armor/weapons, in this game i speak about if you find new weapong its very affects whole game.

Inventor works like in MU game.

Also dont sure about this, but shops doenst exists, all posible items, potions etc are findable(or i just not met any trader when i played game)

Most similar game to this i know is Rune, but its not Rune

UP

Hello, I am looking for old rpg game, maybe from around 2000.

2D game, you control 1 person, from above.

Game starts at farm, there is fence all around this farm, in the farm are some houses, and also there are pigs outside the first building, you can punch the pigs and they can eventually die.
You go from one building to another to complete some task and when you come back, the first building is burning. (at least i think it is the first one).
After some time you can go out of farm to other locations, sorry, thats all i can remember.

I also remember that i got this game from game magazine maybe 13 years ago, it was as special bonus game on CD, but thats useless info, because i guess nobody here live in my country. But i am sure i dont have the magazine or CD for a long time.

Thanks

 

[Toan]

Okay I got a game for ya, Currently im 21 and I remember plaything this game when I was around 6 or 7 and even then it was old. I cant remember for sure if it was a DOS game or not. But you played as a single character who if I remember correctly had brown tone skin and almost wore no clothes, I vaguely remember a thin silver suit he wore. think maybe also red goggles too? He had some type of gun on his forearm that was his only weapon. I remember at one point you get caught and you have to take either the gun of or just had over your ammo for it. I also remember a part when you gun some type of turret and shoot down air craft and even at one point you go find an air craft and pilot it yourself.

Thanks in advance to anyone who can help!

I forgot what system it was for but you play as this guy and you have a dog. Y'all go back to prehistoric times or something. But when you kill the dinosaurs and other monsters you get items that can be used to create diff weapons. It's an old rpg game that's all I know lol.
