I remember playing a game in the mid late 90s on the PC, think it was on floppy disk.

The main character had spiky ginger hair and a dog, and the idea of the game was to travel through time with each setting being a level. The first level was Ancient Egypt i think and i seem to remember a dinosaur themed level also. There was an object to collect in each level, maybe a crystal, and i seem to remember you had to then bring it back to the time machine though that might not be correct. As for the title i'm pretty sure it included the character's name and "Time Travel" or "Time Machine".

If anyone could help me with this one it would be greatly appreciated!
This actually sounds like a game I know from the C64 called ... Time Machine [http://www.mobygames.com/game/time-machine_] from 1990. I don't remember the Egypt part, but the PC version might have been different ...

EDIT: Scratch that - I overread the dog part ...

I remember playing the demo for this weird PSOne game. It involved square rooms that maybe rotated somehow? There's a time limit for you to do... Something. Can't remember what. All I remember is that in the final five seconds, a female announcer goes "Five, four, three, two, one, goodbye." and then everything explodes.

I don't think I played it more than once or twice, I don't remember liking it much. But it's been driving me crazy trying to remember what it was.

My brother and I are trying to remember a game from when we were kids but only remember a few things from it. It was either a NES or SNES game, and each level had a different theme and a castle, I remember candy, cake, bubbles, clouds and pumpkins. Anyone have any idea what that would be?

There's a SNES game I played a couple of years back which is set in a sort of castle/dungeon (Whether it's for all of the game I'm not sure, since I never completed it). The hook was that you had a roster of characters which you could change at the press of one button, and they all had special abilities (For example: One character could crawl in small spaces)...

There's really not much more detail that I can give, other than from what I remember, the art style could be compared to that of Heart of Darkness on the PS1.

Help?

Possibly Blast Chamber, although not much to go on from your description.

Since this thread is back, I might as well post.

The game I'm searching for is played in a top-down perspective in 3D. You are a robot who can transform into a hover car and back again to the robot form(which only got two legs and two cannons instead of arms). The car form is faster, but has weaker firepower. I remember playing a level where you can click a couple of in-game buttons which would spawn either tanks or planes on your side who would follow a path to the enemy's base. He spawns tanks and planes too while you do though. You're able to destroy his vehicles, and he can destroy yours. I believe that you had some sort of income, which limited how many vehicles you could have. After awhile, you could buy some sort of super-plane, which could easily destroy your enemies vehicles, I don't remember if you could get some sort of super-tank though.
There was another level, where you saw some hover police cars, and then you started fighting several different vehicles while going through the level. I believe these were the only levels I played, 'cause I believe that it was a demo for a bigger game.
So does anybody know what it was?

Hey you all, I need to know the name of this video game from PS1

Somethings that I remember is that is related to Looney Tunes/Warner Bros
and the main thing about the game is that you have to find for objects in a room.
Some objects that I remember that i had to find was a sock, crescent moon, etc.

Sounds like Future Cop L.A.P.D..

Hello! Hoping someone can help me.

The game I'm looking for is for the PC, and I'm pretty sure it was made during the mid90s-early 2000s.
The main character was a girl, I'm pretty sure she was blonde and had her hair in a ponytail.
The game was a point-and-click, I believe. It was alot like The Longest Journey, mechanic-wise.
I think she lived in a really big house, (mind you, I'm going off memory from when I was like, probably 6). I'm fairly sure you started off in this house, and the girl lived with her father. You could go through all sorts of rooms, I think one may have been a dining hall, but don't quote me on that. I think she was looking for her friend at some point--she was definitely looking for /something./ You could go outside, in the yard and such. And there would be things outside too.
I remember at one point picking up matches for something. And then I also remember the dad actually turning out to be evil (maybe a vampire??) and trying to attack the girl, and she threw something at his face. I think it was holy water or something--I'm pretty sure it was some sort of liquid. Then you had to run from him.
I don't think I ever got much farther than that.

I'm /pretty/ sure the game was several CDs long, and the cover was a yellowish-brown sorta color, maybe? Like parchment. And there was maybe a skull on the cover, and some blood. But I'm not entirely sure.

I've been trying to remember the game for months now, any help would be appreciated!

EDIT: Oh! Nevermind, just found it! :D
I feel a bit stupid now. It was Phantasmagoria. I remember the games would always get mixed up in the cases, so that's probably why I ended up describing the case for something that sounded like Baldur's Gate.
Anyways, thanks anyways!

Thanks Rangarig and Kildare, but even the Wikipedia list brought no luck :/ From googling i've seen a few people ask about the same game, but there never seems to be an answer. For what it's worth i now remember the dog never came with you in the levels, was just on the boxart and stayed in the machine. Also you had to answer trivia questions whenever you picked up a certain level themed item, e.g an egg in the dinosaur level. It was about the specific period and had 3 possible answers. Thanks again guys

Maybe no one knows, or too many posted to notice your post.

I don't know the answer myself, but your post is very detailed. I'll repost it and maybe someone will remember the game. Good luck. :)

Ok.. Created Acc to ask this question

I remember playing this on either windows 95 or milenium (or in between)

you played as a brownish VTOL aircraft and you had to guard your base from enemy attacks, your base had two turrets and you could spawn Demo trucks using the F1 key and Tanks using the F2 Key, and also blue monster trucks. the enemy would always send a few tanks to your base followed by one demo truck, and you had to destroy their base aswell, you used the WSAD keys to move and it Wasnt a Top down game, but a 3D first or third person game.

thx in advance

thanks!

Hello everybody...
Am looking for a PC game I used to play a long time ago where you play as a cop and you start killing Thugs/Enemies...etc but you have to be carefull for the hostages (they used to scream PLEASE DON'T SHOOT!!!) I remember that I enter jewelry store where I kill the criminals then there is a car chase where I start targeting the cars that have criminals in them... later we reach a building where the thugs are gathered... after this level you get into a car again (one remarkable thing was the ability to choose the destination... for example in the 2nd car chase you can choose which path to go through by shooting on the street sign)

I hope I have given enough details :)
thanks in advance

Hello everybody i really need your help, if you answer this i will be so greatfull

okay, its a pc game that was realest between 1998 - 2002 i think
You are in the future
You can build robots/machines
You have to gather lava/magma with small veichels
The big robots need people in them to move
The robots can loose their arm and get another one from exp the enemy
In the first level you are the color blue and fight against red (the reds have a machine that have a red axe and a shield i think, next level after that you fight against some sort of aliens with purpel shields
you can also build small tanks
the game is third person view
reminds of starcraft, comand and conquer


Hope for answer
John
