Can anyone help with this game im trying to remember. I think it was on Ps1, Ps2 or Gamecube, where you start by selecting either a Man with a red whip or a girl, who shoots blue frie from her hands. In this game you battle monsters i can think of skeletons riding bikes after you and a boss was a giant skeleton. Plz help me its a game i played in my child hood.

My siblings and I have been going mad trying to remember this game we used to play. It was an old Windows game with these alien-like characters. I believe there were some mini games like one where you conduct a marching band, and another where you put the aliens into boxes based on their size or colour. I believe there was also a talking octopus?
Please help! We're not sure if we're imagining things or mixing a few games up.

Alright I have been going nuts over these two games I played when I was younger.

One I remember you were playing as an egg, and there was a level (could have been the whole game) where you were driving around in a cart, similar to the Donkey Kong Country cart levels. It either a regular nintendo or super nintendo game.

The second was a lot like Dig Dug, except you were a tank instead of people. I don't remember its purpose I just remember digging in to the ground with a small tank. Vague I know! And I do not remember what console this was for but it was an OLD game.

I played both of these in the early to mid 90s.

If anyone could help that would be amazing! Thanks!

I completely forgot about that request. I just looked that up and no, that's definitely not it, sorry. The game I was looking for was much older than that, and took place exclusively in Ancient Greece rather than being a time travelling thing.

Nice try though. Welcome to the Escapist!
Aww, :( I was looking for my own game and when I saw that I thought; zomgz i know it! Obviously not :p





The game I'm after is a bit obscure, it's probably from the mid to late 90s. It is a 3d platformer and as far as i can remember the screen was sort of at a 45 degree angle. You were playing an old man in a castle and there was the odd bat flying around and you had to collect things??

Hello everyone,
I'm trying to remember the name of an old game i played.
It was in a "maze" and i needed to kill all the monsters in the field by taking power ups and shooting / throwing / stabbing the monsters. ( the monsters don't have the same weakness )
The monsters i remember --> Werewolves, witches, deadly flowers, green frankenstein? , and more...
The game was on levels.
Sometimes there was a HUGE monster like i said it could be werewolf, witch, deadly flower and green frankenstein.
There was more monsters but i can't remember.

Thank you so much!

P.S, sorry about my grammer problems.

Hey guys, I have been looking for a game. Already spendt so much time looking for it, so now i'm trying this.
- Strategy game.
- You could train different units such as thieves, elven archers, wizards.
- There were monsters and mission targets roaming around the map, which were attacked by your soldiers when you gave a monster a bounty I think.

Hey guys, just made an account to the Escapist. So, I used to have a ton of PC games from early 2000s and possibly late 1990s. I think my dad threw them out at one point, and I am so angry because I remember older games being so great.

There are 3 games I'm trying to remember. 2 of them I had a demo for.

The first game was a game where you were a hover craft of some sort. It was a first person shooter. The graphical design is very geometric(everything in triangular shapes from what I remember & 3D). You collect a LOT of weapons, and when you die, all your weapons come out of your exploding ship and remain where they are. you begin back at the beginning of the level. When you return to the place where you died, you can find and pick up all your weapons again (rockets blasters etc?) I remember levels being elaborate in shape. You tried to kill other ships (They looked like Tie Interceptors from star wars if I can remember correctly) All I can remember about the time is that I was playing tomb raider games around this time (this game probably came out around the time of the first PC tomb raider game).

The two other games I had as part of a demo pack.

second: An RPG with magic medieval setting. It had a setup similar to diablo or sacred. However, what was very distinct about this game was that there was a funky looking alphabet for the world's language (don't know if this helps). Main character was a male with sword, and he had long brown hair with the look of Tarzan. The demo began on an island, and you fought giants that were hard to kill I believe. You could assemble these tablets/Circles that had writing on them and formulate a spell.

The game described above came with a demo pack that included a game where you are a female policewoman and fought other police officers/criminals (very similar to tomb raider setup).

The last game: A Lord of the Rings type game with 7 or so Factions. One was Death, another was Earth or something. The setup looked like Civilization normally. When you fought a battle, you played on a diamond shaped map (like age of empires or something), and you deployed your troops. The death faction had wolves and a cavalry. The Earth faction had these giants.

Does this ring any bells? I would kill to find any of these games

Probably answered earlier and I just didn't find it. Alright, this has been killing me and my friend. We didn't get very far past the beginning.
Console: Unknown.

The main character is part human, part demon/dragon hybrid. He has blue wings and a blue claw for his left arm.
I think he was shunned by everyone around him for being part human.
He begins a long quest.

Can't remember that much. We were too young. The game was probably a side scroll, probably on older systems.
Any help would be appreciated.

I have been searching all over the web but I just can't find the game I am looking for so I would be so happy if someone could remember the name of the game. It was fps and 3d and you have a rifle in a grassy landscape where you will shoot rabbits and deers aswell I think and collect their parts to fill a meter or something perhaps and it all was timed aswell I think.
The rabbits were white and sometimes they would mate and Im kinda thinking after you killed them you had to collect the heads or parts of the head were left on the ground or something.. and the game is very old and I can't find anything about it on the internet.

Please point me in the right direction if you have any idea what I am talking about
