Not a bad drawing if you ask me. I knew it was the game over screen for Stellar 7 as soon as I saw that picture.

OMG, YES! YES! Hahahaha! That is exactly the picture that has been haunted my mind for YEARS! lol

P.S. I thought he was a blue alien but apparently I was mistaken. Oh well, I'm just glad I finally found out the game.

I really need help to find an old pc game i used to play. would have been from late 90s to early 00s. Ok so this game was fantasy where I think the background story line was one of a father god who divided his land between his sons and daughters but they fought over it. You could play story mode or you could pick which son or daughter you wanted to be and fight against the others. So you had your main son/daughter who built people and buildings using some sort of mana type thing (which you increased by building totems). Each son and daughter had a type of sorts, I think one was like a mermaid who was water( maybe called veruna or something similar) , another was an evil hades type, one was a female warrior type. there are more but that's all I can remember. I also remember you eventually build up enough power to make different types of dragons.
If anyone has any idea please let me know, this has been wrecking my head for ages !!

This is very vague, but it is making me go insane!

I remember a game my cousin had, the first level is in woodland type setting setting and there are enemies of some sort around. I think the main character is wearing a cap, a red one maybe? and I seem to remember at the end of the level him giving a thumbs up or something (may have imagined that).

I think he had a gun of some sort, or something to fire at the enemies.

This would have been early to mid 90's i played this i think.

That is all i remember that i can explain Pleeease let someone read this and know what it is!! i will be so grateful if anyone can help me! 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...

Crash Bandicoot series maybe

I remember a flash sort of game (could be DOS).

It is a 2D game where you are a helicopter (Later airplane) and there are 2 army camps which spawns units and they are fighting against each other( sending units) in the center there are multiple bases (neutral at start) and then when the units move by they switch to the allegiance of the nearby units.

There are civilians on the map which you can pick up with your helicopter and bring back to your base to gain more money.
Objective of the game was to destroy the enemy.

you started off as a helicopter and the units were being spawned randomly later on you could choose what units to spawn and there were multiple helicopters fighting in the later levels.
there were also special powers (like airdrop units).

It was in the desert, when you are the airplane you need to either land on a airstrip or a aircraft carrier.

could someone please help me!!

I really really really need to play this game again it is haunting my mind, at night this game is all I can think about xD. sounds desperate but it's sadly true.

I couldn't finding it after searching 20 pages of google ( I guess I used the wrong keywords ).

So this game had to be in the 2000's. It was a space game, graphics were good, it was a strategy game that reminded me a lot of Age of Empires. I want to say you started out as an Earth Colony, you used ships to travel around space, all fighting, building, ect. was done in space. I remember Mars is your enemy (possibly?) then you take over Mars to then discover another enemy? You were transported to other parts of the galaxy, and you relied heavily on your planet for resources and ships.

I remember theres another girl commander or someone you talk to frequently, you're in charge of a lot of ships and your planet builds the ships for you. Good story line, can't remember much of it though.

& another (this should be easier in comparison) It's based off Star Trek and you're the commander of the ship, it has a good story line, decent graphics because you're able to hit direct parts of a ship. You can disable it, fly around, destroy other ships. Your camera angle is the entire ship itself or you sitting in the commanders chair.

Any possible leads?

I've been thinking about this game for a very long time now but I can't remember the name of the game. All I remember was 2 penguins or some sort of animal, one was blue and one was pink. There names were peanut-butter and jelly and it was a pc game. Anyone got any idea what it was called.

Strange it is when I use it. Anywhy, the Picture is of a platform game, seems like nes 8 bit game graphic wise, but for all I know it can be another console. The Pictures shows a kid wearing blue clothes and a blue cap, walking in a dark ally at night time, past a dirty building(building also blue) under a streetlight.

Hi guys,

Just came across this interesting thread and thought I'd ask for some help too:

It's a PC game I played around 1998-2002 or so, it's a top down platformer in a science facility of some sort, you were this oval shaped character (reminded me of humpty dumpty) with a large glass visor down the front. You basically belched green stuff to defeat enemies, I distinctly remember this power-up which allowed you to belch green projectiles in all 8 directions around you at the same time.

My memory's really fuzzy but I'd appreciate any ideas!

Hello guys

There is a game i am looking to find the name, i have very few information as its over 20 years ago but i give the detais i have.

It was a game i was playing on DOS on a 486 a bit before or around same time Windows 3.1 was release, it was a spying game like you were a secret agent, i remember the first thing when you start the game was a guy going down in a Windows washer Platform on the wall of a building and entering the building by the window, once you were Inside you had to find item in different room to go on with the game such as finding clue for a code for a door or taking a bucket and puting it over the door for when the guy enter his office, that is about all i can remember, if any of you remember this game that would be awesome!

 

[johnhash]

Let's see if somebody can help me out because there's one game I still haven't found since I was a kid.

I remember playing it from these common magazine shareware CDs on my first computer, a glorious Pentium I at 120MHz lol, so I assume it was released in the late 90s (probably between 1995 and 1997 but not 100% sure).

It takes place in outer space, you are a scientific explorer or something like that but the stage I remember playing (probably not the first one on the real game) was in the stomach of an alien being, like the intestines of a giant worm or something. Then you started to walk and you had to choose between left or right but not in real action, it was more like a point and click game with rendered sequences in between choices (much like The Neverhood from Dreamworks). I remember choosing the going left and get killed by a giant centipede or similar. Oh and it was in first person perspective.

Man, it sounds pretty weird if you think about it. Hope anyone can help.

 

[Matthew O'Donnell]

Well moment of truth time.
When i was little around 1998 odd a polish kid showed me a really interesting adventure game. It was a mixture of 1st person clicks and sequences set around a fantasy/medieval setting. I remember starting in an old stone/straw house and you are commanded by owner to do some quest. You could steal a ring at the start and if caught would immediately be killed. Following the road abit you could turn left to a swamp like area, following ahead to a dungeon with cgi skeletons + more death.
Never really got far but seemed and still does seem to be an interesting game. Spent years looking so here is hoping.
