This is one is a toughy.

I can't remember exactly what platform it was, but definitely the super-nintendo/sega era.

All I can remember is scaling the outside of a tall castle/building by swinging your arm/extending arm to grapple things, (not captain commando) it was more cartoon like

and on the inside the backdrop was circus props/balloons and such and then fighting a boss in it...

FOUND IT
IT WAS SUPER JAMES POND

Hi, I remember playing a game from roughly 10 years ago? Maybe a little longer. It was on PC and from everything I can remember you play as a male with red spikiesh hair (don't quote me on that). It's a third person shooter and seems to take place in a house/mansion of some kind. One part I remember most of it is you shoot some demonic thing while he's at the foot of some stairs but runs away attached to some kind of chair before you can seriously hurt him or get near him. help plz.

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.

I tried quoting you ryanwagner but it wasn't working on iOS. Perhaps your game is Twisted Metal?
Definitely not Twisted Metal. It was kind of a one-off game with no sequels or anything.

I remember an old game and it was two siblings who lived in the house, and there were different games for each age group. I can remember a couple of the games; one you had to color with numbers, one you had to connect pipes in a light system to make the light bulb turn on, one you had to navigate through a maze in their backyard, and one you sang opera in a barn. There was another I remember, but I don't know anything except it had to do with the American Gothic painting, but with their heads.

If it helps, one of the main things about the siblings was that they were mainly blue and had some powers like turning into bouncy balls, stretching their limbs out, and basically molding themselves into any shape they wanted

I need help finding an old PC game that I used to play as a kid.

- Probably on windows 95, around 1990-2000
- 4x4 red jeep you drive
- i believe it was racing against cpu
- you raced down a huge mountain and most of the times the terrain included a lot of drops
- side view camera, not behind the car
- 3d

I appreciate any help because I have been searching for this game for a while now, I just cant seem to find it by searching google. I think it was just one of those games that were not officially released. Thanks.

I remember playing a game years agor, but I have few memories and I'm not sure if that is REALLY a fox, but I think that I remember it was a orange fox, with a sword, and also in a village. Seems to me a RPG and something like open world, but I am uncertain. I'm almost sure it's from PS1, but maybe PS2 too... Really looking by this game, appreciate if someone could help me here...

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.
Maybe "Bad Mojo"?

Hey, I've been going mad trying to think of this game for a while now. It was a 3D third person pc game i only had the demo from a Pc Gamer Magazine, I can remember the graphics being quite good and looked quite realistic at the time. You wake up in a Dungeon/Cell and you're a Knight (or i think there were other characters like a dwarf) when you leave the cell you walk round a corner and there were little goblins/creatures sat around a camp fire. I know you had to walk around picking up pieces of cheese and ham for health. I'm afraid this is all me and my brother can remember :( i hope this sounds familiar to someone but it seems like a bit of a long shot. But thanks all the same :)

Hey everyone! :)

For years, it's been plagued me deep in dark corner of my head. I just cannot figure out the game's name nor I could find anything online, no matter what and how much effort I put it in the search engine, wiki, images, and videos.

The game I remember was on PC game (probably Sierra game but then, it may not be) and it was early 90s (I think). The game was about you driving in space combat vehicle and fight against aliens invasion. The game had part one and two (sequel). I clearly remember you were driving space combat vehicle and everything around were made of polygons. You would have to shoot the aliens down until you moved into the next level.

The "cinema" was made of cool pixel art (in introduction and ending, pretty much same pixel arts as "Rise of the Dragon"). The villain was a blue skin alien (with black hair, I think) who was insist on invade the Earth. In the second game, he was coming back for the revenge after you beat him in the first game. I clearly remember in the second game when you lost the game, you would see the blue alien man say something like "Now I can invade Earth and no one will be able to stop me!" Then he would smile evilly with wide open eyes and there were space vehicles flying in the background then you would get "Game Over."

Can anyone help me out here? It was definitely on PC only during early 90s.

EDIT: I went as far to draw what I remember when I lost the second game before you see "Game Over." You'll have to excuse my artwork. :p

EDIT: OMG, I'VE FINALLY FOUND IT!!! FINALLY!!! I was surfing the pictures when I suddenly saw company "Dynamix," which I've completely forgotten that it worked under Sierra company. The same company that made "Rise of the Dragon" that I mentioned earlier.

The game I've been looking for is... *drum rolls*

Stellar 7
-and-
Nova 9: Return of Gir Draxon! <---- This is the one with that artwork I drew. :D

It had SNES type graphics. It is a (futuristic?) war game viewed top-down where you build units, missile silos and other buildings. You would then launch attacks & defend from the enemy on who is on the other side of the map.
I believe the view was isometric. I can't remember if it was turn-based or not or had fog-of-war.
That sounds exactly like Metal Marines.
OMG yes yes yes yes!!

I know it's an old reply and you may never see it but I just love you for that!

What an amazing forum thread this is :D

Hello! I have a really hard one here...

It´s an old PC game, probably one of those one guy made games, or very small company, anyway I got it from internet.

The game had similar 2D top down view and grafics as the image below, was on windowed mode (very small window) like image below. And it was, colored, pixelated, and MEDIEVAL RPG type.
So you start the game at the bottom (dungeon) of a castle, where you are a soldier or something like that, and your progress is to move up the floors of the castle one by one, and to do that you have to fight enemies that block your way, all enemies are static and dont move, you only fight them if you step (enter) their square. As I can remember, you only have like attack and defence atributes, and hit points, so combat is VERY simple, for example if I have (ATK 10, DEF 10) and the enemy has (ATK 8, DEF 5) when I enter his square, I´ll beat him 5, then he will beat me 2, then i hit 5, then he hits 2, and forever on untill someone dies. You fight against skeletons, monsters, dragons, etc.. You find items like potions, keys, ATK boost, armor, etc.. The thing that I like on this game is the strategic choices you have to make, should i attack this skeleton to get the item behind him or leave it be? two locked cells with items and only one key, so you have to decide between more ATK or more DEF, things like that. It is a very hard game! The castle has like 8 floors and i only made it to the 4th or so..

I really want to play this game again, but its not a well know game, so im having a REALLY hard time trying to find it. I even looked the whole Top down section of Abandonia.com . I hope some one here have played this game before, and help me!

Good night!!

PS: I can give more details if needed :)

Hey guys, I've been looking for a game couple weeks now and it's driving me crazy. So I used to play this game on my pc around 5 years ago, you had a dwarf I think as a character, or you could choose among many I don't remember that good. At first you'd walk in a dungeon, (cave or castle) and the enemies were gremlins or orcs or sth like that. It was dark in the game the whole time. After the dungeons you'd exit from another door and most of the times you'd arrive in some town and if i recall correctly there were npcs that'd sell you weapons like axes and stuffs, health pots and other things. I also remember in one of the dungeons there was a golden horn. I remember a church with a graveyard in front, but don't quote me on that. I also remember a town where in one of the houses, once you entered you'd have to face a boss that could cast spells.

I really hope that makes sense to someone and finds out what game i'm talking about, thanks!
