For the first one.. was it Gauntlet by chance?
It's VERY similar. I guess it's a clone or a sequel. But that is a starting point in Googling, thank you! :)

It was a bit more modern as I remember it, but yes, definitely looked like this, very much so.

EDIT: Found it thanks to forgotten_zero! It is called Get Medieval on the PC. Just looked up "Gauntlet clone PC" on Google. Cheers mate!

I haven't had much luck finding this game yet but I hope someone can help.

-Old game, like mid 80's to 90's.
-played as female (Juliette maybe?) to rescue boyfriend/ prince/ Romeo.
-very brightly colored.
-Female was blonde and wore pink/ red two piece outfit.
-8-bit platformer for the PC.

I used to play it all the time on the computers at school but I can never remember it's name and no one else seems to remember the game at all.

Hey guys i am looking for an old game i recently remembered:

The game was you were playing a hovercraft/floating tank on a distant planet, and the enemies were the same (just other types named scouts, thunderbirds etc) and you were in a 3rd person view. I really only remember little sadly, that for example the thunderbirds were the big tanks taht were very difficult to kill. I played it on the PC.

Hope you can help.
Do you remember what OS or year at all?
I believe it was Windows XP but am not 100% sure :S

There's an old PC game I remember playing.

-you controlled your character on the outside border of the screen.
-you had to shoot blocks into the middle to make mosaics.
-you can shoot or pull the blocks out to solve the puzzles (as in, shoot a block in, shoot another so the first block stops it, then pull the first out leaving the second where it was).
-I believe it had a Greek or Roman god theme to it.

Here is one I have been looking to see if I could find it again.
At heart it is a Energy Simulation game
Worldwide, you control a newly formed company with the mandate to supply energy to a region.
Certain tiles have potential to produce more energy types that other.
rivers produce Hydro
Deserts Produce solar
Certain Areas have wind potential
certain areas produce oil
You job is to build the correct energy mix to supply a given region with enough power.
When you meet that goal, more regions are opened up.
You make money, etc, try to be the biggest company
You can make energy transmission lines, you can research better technology

I want to say it has the Words - Power or Energy or Quest or Oil

Any ideas??

Windows 95 probably as far as OS

thanks

I can't remember so much, but all I can remember is that was a pc game (probably running on DOS) from the mid 90's (I guess), about a little white haired boy wearing a completely blue suit and I think he wore a cover. The only part I can remeber of it was in the beggining where the boy is in a kinda dark place but the background was a forest and there was a sign or more at a tree. Then I remember getting in front of a brown train cart which could talk. Maybe the game was a puzzle or point-and-click, and the graphics werw quite good for the time, similar to Torin's Passage. I really really want to know the name of this game 'cause I wanna know what it was about. Thanks in advance.

hello, i have an hard game to remember. it was an ms-dos game, i remember i was playing it together with Electro Body (Electro Man), so it could be in the '90 (about) ?
i'm not sure if it was a shareware game. i remeber it like a 2D side-scrolling game, opening with a short animation that showed a guy with a kind of jetpack crushing on the desert... this guy is the protagonist btw.

random things i remember:

-you are armed with a sort of gun (unlimited) and a sort of grenade launcher (limited)
-in the first level, you find yourself in a tunnel and you have to proceed among this tunnel moving to the right.
you see a kind of blue pattern on the ground, and mountains on the background above the tunnel.
there is a point where the blue pattern is interrupted and you are not able to proceed; you have to shoot the mountains to provoke a kind of collapse, then the blue pattern is restored and you can pass over.
the enemies on this level are a kind of green/blue floating things.
-on the 2nd level, you move by walking (no jetpack)and you find walking/shoooting enemies with human resemblance.
you can perform short jumps, but to climb platforms you must use a sort of climbing hook.
i remeber explosive barrels on this level...cameras/torrets armed with guns in the upper platforms... kind of flying demons that you could release by shooting and hard to get rid off... a kind of floppy disk that you could collect, and it was falling on the floor every time you werehitten (never discovered what was his function).
once i got at the top of this level, and there was a kind of parked navicel (dunno about it!)

never reached level 3 (if it existed lol),
if someone has a memory of this game's name please help me! i want to re-play it and finish it xD

Well if anyone can help me find this game I will be really glad. So it was some miner mining through underground caves and going to the next level. It was mostly 8-bit or something like that. And also i remember that it was green. I don't know if it stayed the whole game like that but i know it is green by the start.

Hello, when i was younger, heh maybe i was like 6-7 years old (now i have 22)i played in two games, i think it was a demo's. First one was about a man who was in the jungle, pyramide, he was jumping, climbing, swimming... and my sister told me that the title of this game had the word "jungle".
The other one was really scary for me when i was at this age :D i remember only a really dark room in the castle (?), there were grey rocks on the ground and around me was really dark, and from those gloomy places were coming out skeletons or another creatures. I had only two guns. Something like firt counterstrike, but very dark and with skeletons. Anyone? It was about 15 years ago... (Windows 95/98 i were a demo's on the new computer) Thank u a lot!! :))))))))))))))))) :DDDDDDDDDD

I believe you mean Pajama Sam: No Need to Hide When It's Dark Outside (the first in the series). Sam was a greenish blue all over and wore pajamas. You go into his closet and fall into the Land of Darkness. There's a minecart you can talk to after a bit. It's also a point and click. The first 3 games in the series are amazing and I recommend you play them all.

I've lost too much time at work already trying to remember this game:

It's an old commodore 64 game, probably somewhere from the 80ies. What I remember is that you were a little guy with some sort of laser weapon which could turn dragons into eggs. You had to run past the eggs to make them fall off the screen into the water, disabling that dragon. If you didn't 'touch' the egg in time, it'd break open again, releasing the dragon (and probably angry or something, I can't quite remember). The laser beam itself didn't look typically laser beamish, but rather, circular: oo000000oo

You could walk to either the left or the right side of the screen, making it scroll (I think) and I also remember different 'floors/levels' vertically. Not sure how you were able to access them. I think I also remember a door and a key. Hmm! And a skull? Big hmm!

The scenery looked as if it was in some sort of castle. The dragons were green and not bigger than yourself.

You'd find yourself constantly zapping dragons, turning them into eggs, rushing to make them fall off the screen before they'd hatch. Sometimes you were just in time, sometimes they'd hatch right before the moment you'd touch them, you'd die. There was actually an animation on that egg, making it look like it was cracking, giving you an idea how much time you still had.

This game also had this catchy music I can still hum out loud today! As a matter of fact, my colleagues are looking weird at me right now.

Can anyone help me out!

I wanted to ask if anyone remembers a game which I played in my mid age. It had a character with white gown type and it was 3rd person sword fighting game. What I remember is in starting it uses a power which destroys every enemy but he somehow loses it and then he can only release his 2-3 assists which had sword and revolve around him. Its objective was to destroy organic generators, and the color of generators was green.It was a PC game.. Can somebody remember that game ??? Thanks..

First games that come to my mind are either 'Jungle Hunt' or 'Aztec Challenge'. On the other hand, those game are older than 15 years so I'm not sure. What platform did you play that game on?

What platform? Do you remember what the purpose of the game was? Perhaps collecting diamonds = Boulder Dash or blowing up creatures = Dig Dug.

Does anyone remember a DOS platformer game on pc where you play as a small boy (i think) and blue balls would follow you around, in the same way as the eggs do in yoshi's island? I can remember a level in the snow, and not much else.

Does anyone can help me find this game?? It's PC game I played demo version few years ago: It was 3rd person sword or some other weapon fighting game I'm not sure but I remember that I was fighting with a lot of spiders and when you kill them you collect some green/red lights from them (green was for hp I think). You can spawn spirit monster(something like that)to fight with you. I think that game had combo counter and I remember one boss fight (I think it was boss fight)where you jump down in some circle area and fight with few giants when you kill them they drop some item and it's end of demo. (sry if my english is bad.)
