Hello all! I am looking for 2 games.
1st is on PS1 and you're playing a skeleton with a longsword and you're walking around and solving puzzles and riddles and you collect some colorful keys which are pretty big and are big rectangular rocks. All I remember from the game was a graveyard and a red key which opens a door.
sounds like medievil
It is medievil indeed. Thank you!

Hello, everyone! I'm so glad I found this thread, because there is one unknown game that has been bugging me for years.

It was an old PC game that I played on a programmer's computer with Windows 98 on it. It was a side-scrolling maze-type game with a small creature as the main character. I think it was a white mouse that walked on two legs, but I could be wrong. It navigated up, down and across the exterior wall of a very strange cylindrical tower that was made of bricks/stones.

The mouse never went inside the tower and there were various stairs and doors along the outside that would lead it to other different paths or dead ends.

The graphics were 2D and looked darkish and monotone, there weren't many bright colors and the tower didn't fill the whole screen, there was a dark background behind it. The camera was always fixed on the mouse with the tower ?rotating? around it.

As for gameplay elements, I don't remember any kind of combat or other characters besides the mouse. I don't recall a clear goal or narrative either.

One last thing - the programmer mentioned there was a top to the tower, but I never managed to reach it due to the confusing paths.

I hope this helps, because I really want to find and finish this game. :)
Load Runner?
or was it Lode runner?

Hey guys, nice to meet you all.
I had only a demo of this game, so I may not be very precise here.
- This game was a real-time strategy one, sci-fi themed (like Starcraft);
- Your units were (by default) colored blue;
- Your enemies' units were colored green;
- Neutral resources/units (using the word "resources" because one of the demo's maps, one in the snow, had this huge generator) were colored white;
- I can remember 2 maps, one in the snow, other in the desert;
- You had one-time "special" attacks, like an air strike, amongst other things;
* It was a PC game (probably an exclusive).

Thanks in advance, for your help!
Bumping it. Got no answer. Is the description at fault?

Not a rabbit more like a frog but could it be nebulus? Old game but maybe a remake or port.
YES!!! The DOS version of Nebulus (aka Tower Toppler) in particular looks just like the version I played many years ago.

Thank you very much!!!

I remember watching a trailer and playing a demo to a game. The game involved a black creature that you could interact with. There were several others but depending on what you did, the main creature would grow many eyes or start ripping the others to shreds. I can't remember the name of this game but it looked cool.

Hi all, I am trying to remember an old snes rpg/adventureish style game I remember my brother playing nearly 20 years ago. The fights were multiplayer, but it was single player while walking around the world and towns. It had some similarities to mario rpg, this definitely came out first so pre 1996. The fight scenes would cut to another screen. I believe it was random attack and not like smrpg where you touch a guy. Although a boss fight or two may have been talking on the world map then cutting. Fights were not turn attack and had a 3d overhead view. Hero looked similar to many of the square heros like secret of mana 1&2. I remember a part in a cave its 2d platforming style and trying to jump up and across to a chest that is harder to reach. Items weapons armor magic etc. I think it was more simple equipment with only a few slots to equip.

Alright this is a long shot because I was little and my memory isnt very good, but this has killed me for years. I think it's for ps1... Its a game where you play as monkey ish things, you take care of them and stuff, and they lay eggs. They live in a tree house or something. I know it's not much to go on but if someone remembers I swear I'll marry you.

Hi Everyone. For years I have been tryng to figure out a game that left an impact on me, and now I have run into this website/topic. Thank you to all who read this:

I loved an snes game that my cousins and I had rented when we were 7(I'm 23 now). Though it's likely a platformer, the game art stile resembles a cross of rpg and megaman. It has a character who uses some form tail to bounce up and flying pet (maybe a blue bird of sorts?). I think he lived in a cottage, but something happens that it has to go through dangers and levels to acquire a special (gem?). However, after he does so, it is stolen by a thief(female?)right after you defeat the boss of a level. You then go after the thief, venturing inside a monster that looks like those giant monster desert worms with lots of sharp teeth. Once you reach far enough in that level and have avoided different parts of the monster that would kill you (ex. dripping digestive liquids),you see a corps that resembles the thief. I think the character says something and you get the item(gem?) back.

I never finished the game, but that thief really imprinted into my memory. Other things I remember are the diverse level backgrounds-one which resembles ancient Egypt. It also feels like DK country since you select different structures to move your character to the level you want to play next-yet it does follow a story once you play a new level.


Sorry for the novel!! I hope these details will help~
Thanks again!

Could be one of the Creatures games, although I don't know if they were on the PS1.

Hi everyone,

Can you help me? I'm looking for a game.

- It was a PS1 game.

- It was a war type game... I mean, there were humans and robots, and these 2 had many type of vehicles. When I played the first stage with robots I got 2 vehicles(if I remember correctly). A motorbike, that could attack with a machine gun, and it was very fast, and a 2-legged robot that had rocket attacks. I don't remember the other vehicles, but I know there were flying vehicles, and the robots had a vehicle, that had a strange ability -> it could become invisible.

- The humans had many type of tanks.

That's all I remember about it. I hope someone can help me!

Thanks!

Sorry if this has already been figured out.

There was a PC game back in the mid-late 90's, which I remember being part-shareware and coming on like a pc gamer demo disc (or a similar magasine).

I played it on either Windows 95 or Windows 98.

You were a spaceship which you saw from a side on perspective, and controlled it with an asteroids-style control scheme. It was always affected by gravity.

Instead of exploring space, you primarily explored planets and underground in planets, I think there might have been a fuel gauge as well.

The main part of the game was exploration (in stages) and solving puzzles.

It looked kindof like 2.5D

I cannot for the life of me find it anywhere!
Sorry to *Bump*

Any ideas anyone?

Ok, so I have 2 games:
The first one is about, I think, about a detective who goes to visit a friend in a small village but find him dead.
It had overhead view and the 2nd chapter is called "the stars are right".

The second it was about a guy who lost his cat in a castle and you had to get it back. I remember being very weird, with every room having sort of a puzzle in each one.

Ok guy got a hard one for you :)

What I'm looking for is an old platform game i played as a child on my old Macintosh computer.
In this game you play as a small fat American guy with a big belly. The objective of the game is to save your monster friends(?) that some how got spread out over the states of America (In some kind of explosion?).
Each level is a normal platformer game where you get a chance to save one of your monster friends in the end ( you can fail this and still continue to another state without saving that specific monster).
The hero was dressed in cloths that had the American flag on them and had some kind of belly attack.
Also i think the heros was traveling in some kind of trailer but I'm unsure about this.

That's about all i remember about this game x) Hope you guys remember this one :D

OK, I'm looking for an old strategy-resource managing game (probably from the early 90's) it had four levels symbolized by: circle, rectangle, three circles, and triangle. In each level you play another type of monster-ish tribe and you need to beat the enemy tribe. The units were doing cute-weird-funny noises whenever selected or given orders. The Hebrew name of that game translates back to "the ghost war", but sadly that's not the actual name of the game.

If anyone know what game it is I'll be really thankful :)

Probably won't be able to find it since it wasn't in english (Don't know if there was a US release), but I'm looking for a real time strategy game on the pc where the main character was a girl with a sword. You can buy troops for your army and the gameplay was similar to starcraft (without the buildings). The story had a bit of a fantasy setting to it. (Sorry if I'm not very descriptive. I played this game when I was little and don't remember much about it. Game was probably made in the late 90s or early 2000s)

If anyone knows what game this is, it'd be really helpful.

Thanks :)

Trying to remember the name of a PS1 game. It's an RPG and you combine weapons to make more powerful weapon, which if I remember correctly, can be done as many times as you want. One of the basic weapons you find is called a gladius, I believe.

I am trying to figure out the names of two games that i Believe came from the game called "100 Action Arcade games Vol. 2" by Global Star Software.

The First game that i need to know the name of was a isometric or top down view game where you could control a small grunt or goon that was placed into some kind of indoors level, in which you could obtain several different weapons including grenades and Molotov's i believe. There was a lot of blood and gore i believe....I think this game was also 2 player co-op on the same computer using the keyboard.

The second game is actually on the front cover of the game when i searched it on google, but the image is to small to make out the name of the game. its the picture on the bottom right of the image on google. the game was in a classic mario style view, but you are some kind of lizard that gets placed in a starting outdoors location where you can obtain several different weapons to shoot monsters. I can remember that the ending of one level contained drones/robots that rolled around and were really hard to kill/destroy.

If anyone just had the games list which featured all the games that you could play on this Global Star Software disk from 1999 let me know!!! i need to find this out!!

Thanks!!
