Hi everyone!

I remember playing this old pixel adventure game way back when I was in Grade 4 in 2000. It was on my grade 4 teacher's Mac. The first game of the series involved you and your wife going on an adventure(?) in the jungle, but your wife gets poisoned so you gotta explore the jungle in order to find a cure for her.. I didn't get very far since my teacher was really uptight about our computer usage.

The other game in that same series involves the same couple, but this time they're in someone's mansion. I think it was one of their relatives? So the couple gets escorted to the room they're staying in. The wife wakes up and looks through the keyhole and finds the maid murdering their host, and she tries to escape the place. I can't remember what happened to the husband. The last thing I remember in that game was getting to the garden, and there was a swarm of bees tthat you can't get past otherwise they kill you.

It's a 2d puzze adventure game, with pixellated graphics. You had to type out the commands and click around the map to get around.

I'm not sure if this will help, but the mac also had this puzzle game called Blobbo where you play as this blog and try to get all the treasure chests in a level without getting killed by arrows and boulders.

I really appreciate the help!

I'm after the name of an old BBC computer game, you had to colour in this robot with different colours but the colours were not allowed to be side by side.

There was another one too where you basically had to try and sneak past a fire breathing thing. If you made it behind his head without him getting you then you win.

Any help would be fantastic!!

Hello, the game I'm looking for is a game that you start off in a cathedral breaking out of something like a cask I think? The objective is to protect a girl who is I think, glowing in white and protect her from these monsters that are literally, black. I remember playing it on one of those Playstation 2 Demo Disc's and I loved it, I would appreciate it if someone would help me.

They sound like Hugo III: Jungle of Doom [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hugo_III,_Jungle_of_Doom!] and Hugo II: Whodunit? [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hugo_2:_whodunit%3F]

Hey guys!
I'm looking for an old PC game (usually found in that CD w/ 15~20 demo games).
The game is like this: Is a 3D game that you have a Floating Piece of Land (Usually flat i think). You can put in structures in that piece (With consumes hexagon slots) like Walls, Catapults, Propulsion Engines to make you floating island moves, etc.
The objetive is to destroy others floating islands.
Anyone remember the name? It's kinda old game.
Thanks!
Project Nomads, perhaps?

2) DOS based, Win 95/98. It was an adventure game, single player, third person, single-plane scrolling depending on which direction you went. The graphics were more than basic but still pixelated, with the character being smaller than the area around, kinda short and squat. You had a party of maybe 5 characters, different classes like warrior and sorcerer, male and female, who walked in line and you could change the order. To attack/use you hold down the space bar, movement is the Left, Right & Up(jump, which the whole party jumped in tandem) keys. So each level/zone, you had to find your way through the level, dodging obstacles, fighting monsters, finding treasures and hidden switches to open/activate other things, killing the boss at the end. There might have been an inventory and a village you could visit when leaving the level? I've got the name Sorcerer stuck in my head but I don't think that's it, but I do want to say it's one word starting with "S." I would have been playing in the early-mid '90s.
Summoner?

Hi guys! I'm looking for a game, but I forget her title. The game was something like Chaos Legion, Devil May Cry, hack and slash type. The year is about 2001-2005. In the begining you choose your hero - male with sword or female with spear and start beat the enemies. Between the levels you can unlock other swords or spears for your hero, can buy combos... In the end, the final boss was something like giant spider or scorpion. Please, can anyone remember the title of this game?

Just two heroes - man with sword (who looks almost like Sieg from Chaos Legion) and a woman with spear/halberd (she was thin and in blue outfit). In the game you fight some kind of freaks, when kill them you can collect their souls and this is your experience and your money also.

The camera was behind the character - just like in Chaos Legion, and you can collect also bonus items (bracelet which increase your defence, ring which increase power, iron glove which improve your attack strengh, potions etc.) You don't talk to people. Setting was fantasy, I played it on PC. Monsters - zombies, ghouls, demons, some kind of evil dogs, that stuff. Levels - town in the Dark Ages, hell (walking on something like giant tongue), stone gardens (cemeteries), some kind of underground dungeon library. Combos - I remember one combo: you can strike your enemy with the sword from down to up, then jump after the enemy and turn couple of times around yourself like a whirligig, striking him 4-5 times.

Sounds alot like Evergrace, but it's for the PS2 ( http://www.giantbomb.com/evergrace/3030-11960/ )

The only game that comes to mind is a Commodore 64 game I played once. Looked pretty cool for the time, It had a first person view in what looked like Egyptian catacombs, high narrow sand colored walls. I remember fighting what looked like black demons or perhaps Egyptians with Jackal heads.

I also wish I know the exact Pong clone we had when I was a wee lad.

Hello.
I need help finding this very old Flash game(about 8 years ago).
It was a Giant Robot 2D game on which you could buy and exchange the parts of your robot (arms, legs, head, weapons, etc), like Armomred Core, but of course not even close to AC in terms of gameplay. The game was pretty simple, but cool. Gameplay was more stategy than anything, as you would play by turns. There were missions where you would be the pilot of the robot and you would walk around talking to people like an RPG game, and fight some battles as well. You could get weapons for the human(pilot) as well. I'm trying to remember the name of this game or at least the company that made it, but I can't remember for the life of me. I haven't seen a game like this one ever since. If anyone knows anything about this game I would really apreciate the information. Thank you.
