I really can't get this out of my head.

It's an old adventure game, from around 1995 to 2000. I lived in Italy back then so I played it in Italian. Might have been an educational game. I remember the protagonists were a boy and a girl, and there was some magical thing involving bees happening at the beginning of the game setting them on an adventure (also a bubble? this part is vague in my memory). The first level was the kids house, it was dark and involved a puzzle finding a key. There was a level were you were in an airplane (possibly falling) and had to find or use a parachute. The last level was on a tropical island and it involved lava.

No luck remembering it, will be awesome if someone does.

Hello to everyone.

I remember playing an old pc game in which you used a red creature and fought against similar creatures but of green, blue and yellow colours. the objective was to colour the floor, with your colour, that was formed by many squares, you could also obtain powers like painting all the tiles in a line or to blow up a part of the floor. I also remember that you could play in a satellite and a west town.

Thats all i remember, it would be really cool if someone knew what game im talking about.

Please someone help me out here. This is a PC game that I remember playing around waaay early 2000, so it might be released in the 90s.

The game came with a bundle software called Nothing But Action. The main character is a fat scientist-looking dude wearing a white lab coat. Also I remember the character moved pretty nimbly and fast. I think it was one of those games where you have to collect things first and then go to the exit and to the next level. One enemy I remember was a green poison slime thing that moved around back and forth.

I remember playing a game when I was maybe 10 years old in computer class in elementary school (I was a 90's kid).

It was an educational PC game made in the 90's that taught you about money with a bear and money trees, addition and subtraction with a lion(?) on a train, and some other stuff in a jungle. There was also an art area that was an ocean.

I tried looking it up, it might be a JumpStart game. I was in 5th grade, I have no idea. I can't remember too much.

Hi everyone,

One pc game I am trying to remember.. It is killing me! Probably between 92-98

It was like a trivia game. First you had to choose a character. They were usually weird colorful creatures. You could play with your friend or with a computer. Than the computer would generate very funny questions, one by one. The answers were usually multiple choice. Sometimes they were open ended.

Each question was introduced with a funny cartoon/animation representing that number. For example for one number there would be an animation of a girl sitting on a dentists chair and from inside her mouth would appear a number. Or, there would be a poop shaped like number 8 :)

Between some questions there would be some funny, fake commercials.. Again like animation.

At the end of the game there was a last section where a question would be asked and some words would come up to the screen as if flying freely in the space, coming closer to the screen where the player must hit the space button if that word was representing one of the right answers. For example: "names of some candies" would be the question.. M&M being one of the right answer but "iphone" not.

You would collect money or point throughout the game.

That's all I remember. It was a very funny and colorful game

Thanks!

Hi, I have a game that I've been looking for, it's an old arcade game I played like 10 years ago. It was a beat'em up that looked sort of like an upgraded version of strider, but you can turn into a wolf. It's not Altered Beast. Thanks.
Metamorphic Force?

Going to ask again (since no one responded the first time)...

It was a long time ago on the PC, back before Windows Vista was out, just XP.

At least I think it was a PC game.

Basically I remember that in the start you get off the bus and get home and I think theres a note on the fridge but no oen is around. Somehow you get shrunk or something and your bed is huge and you need to save each member of your family, I think. It had an interesting art style, something like a Tim Burton movie (I think.)

It's a side-scroller and while I don't know if It was horror, I think it did have some elements of it.

Hi guys, so I just remembered two games that I cannot seem to find hopefully some of you will be able to help or reckognize them

1st game: The game is happening during the night I think and you're some kind of samurai / ninja and once a while a sword would fall from the sky and you could pick it up and use it

2nd game: It is very hard to describe since I don't have much memory of it, but what I remember is, it is a sidescroller mostly but it had few parts where it was in 3rd person, you were a green thing, either a bug or a crocodile or something like that (inb4 it's not croc) I think the stages were like in the sky or you were climbing up to the sky, at one part there was a bus station if I recall correctly, the platform was always near a wall or so, like I said hard to describe

both of them are PC / DOS games

Thanks

Edit: both games are around '90s or very early '00s

I remember playing a game on the NES where your a ninja, marial artist, or something of that nature. I turely loved that game, and what really taunts me is theres this gif running around where he's doing the moves from the game and it looks like he's dancing. If anyone knows what I'm talking about, please tell me.
It is not Ninja Gaiden or Strider is it?

Hi all, new user, just joined because after days of searching I'm having no luck finding a game I used to play as a kid. It was a 3rd person arcade shooter, looking down from the top scroller with 'twist' controllers. In the game were boxes which when shot contained new weapons, extra lives, etc. you ventured through levels battling tanks (I think!!) and other enemy shooters.

Someone please tell me the name as it's driving me NUTS!!!!!

Thanks for any help folks! :)

Dang, I have one. I can't for the life of me remember what console it was on, either, I think either PS1 or N64, maybe even earlier, though I doubt it. You controlled a girl (I think wearing green? With brown hair?), and the only part I can remember is running through a dark series of caves, and to recover health you had to eat stuff that looked like chicken wings, which were visible on the floor to pick up (I'm pretty sure there was a sound effect of her wolfing the chicken wings down). There was a ridiculous boss somewhere in the caves, too, and he was pretty tough, but other than that...

Nothing. Dammit. I played it very briefly at a friend's when I was six or seven, and have never seen it since.
Is it Gauntlet Legends? N64 or PS1?

there was a game which i think was on the Mega Drive (Genesis in USA) where you were a ninja and had special moves, one of which was called Fushin which increased your jumping distance, another made you explode and killed anything caught in the explosion. the second level involved platform jumping across a waterfall. it was a side scrolling game, had you fighting a lot of enemies a late level was like a labyrinth with a lot of revolving doors that i never made it passed.
I beleive the game is called SHINOBI?

Ok guys, this has been driving me up the wall but here goes!:

Old pc game, late 90s (posssssibly very early 2000s?)
RPG
Post Apocalyptic setting (at least near the beginning)
One of the characters was a mechanic-type blonde girl (possibly with long blonde pigtails?)
Possibly a vaguely anime design?

Any ideas? :)
Thanks.

2 games
1 is an old rts with different races that was cool (sorry can't really elaborate on it more)
2 IS a battle driving game. Think Death race meets Wipeout and unreal tournament, winner gets out of death row. Lots of cool arena and weapons, no idea what happened to it though.
1.Dune 2000 RTS or 2.Twisted Metal

1.) Dune? They weren't different races though so maybe not.
2.) Twisted Metal? Twisted Metal:Black was the one with the get off death row storyline from what I recall, but the series has been around since the early PS1 era.
Dune has 3 races Atreides Harkonen and Orodos?

Can anyone tell me the name of this one...

You play as a star with legs and if I remember correctly his hands were floating limbs so he could reach quite far. It was on Sega Genesis, ahh the memories. Also this game with a circle fellow (literally a red circle) with shades doing things.

Plus this (either n64 or SNES don't remember) game about a bear or something, it reminded me of the honeynut cereal bear but it probably wasn't. If it was for N64 I remember it having an unusually large cartridge, so it was probably for SNES.
Could it be Banjo Kazooie?

hi there was a game in which you have to shoot rope arrows at bouncing balls from below that are bouncing across from side to side and also prevent player from being stomped by balls as they jump across over the player. each time you hit a ball it split into two smaller balls and so on and finally disappear when they are smallest. does anyone remember its name. its a game , maybe late 90s or early.
