Greetings everyone.

I am trying to remember a game I used to have for Windows and I haven't had any luck yet. I can't recall the title, publisher, or developer but I am certain it was for the Windows operating system. It's probably from the 1990's (I can't remember the exact year, unfortunately) and it was sort of like an action-RPG.

I remember that I liked it a lot (probably because I was 7 or 8 years old at the time). It was an isometric game so the player looked at it from a 3/4 view. It was a medieval hack-and-slash game where you could recruit different members into your party of 4 heroes by speaking to them.

Another thing that I remember is that the cover had four different persons on it. One was a swordsman wearing a blue outfit, another was a wizard that had a staff and looked a bit similar to Gandalf the Grey (from the Lord of the Rings series), one was an axeman that I think had a large beard and was wearing red and/or brown armor, and one was an archer that was wearing green colored clothes/armor.

The four heroes were looking straight at the person holding the box and had their weapons raised and looked like they were ready to fight. Above them was the title of the game which I can't remember. Unless I'm mistaken, the ESRB rating was Kids-to-Adults (or K-A, for short). I know that this rating doesn't exist anymore but this game was from the 1990's decade so it's possible that it was K-A.

Another thing I remember is that when you wanted the party of 4 characters to move, you clicked on a point on the field and four blue-colored arrows would appear on the point and go down to the center of where you clicked. The game kind of looked like Age of Empires but I am 99% sure that it wasn't AOE.

Additionally, I am almost certain that this game wasn't Master of Magic or any of the games in the Age of Wonders series. I have been looking all over GameFAQs and the rest of the internet but I haven't found it yet. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Would that be Gauntlet Legends?

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

i wish i could remember more but if anyone can remember this game i would greatly appreciate it

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.
If the other two guesses are wrong, maybe it's Devil Dice? Or its sequel on the PS2, Bombastic?

I'm trying to remember the name of a game I played when I was a kid. I believe it was for the SNES, maybe the N64, but most likely the SNES. I rented once a long time ago. There was a mansion or castle or something and you tried to sneak around the courtyard and I distinctly remember this one scene where you go through a hole in a wall or a window or something and you find your best friend lying unconscious on the floor and he dies shortly after examining him. I can't remember much more than that, but perhaps some conversing with you guys will jar my memory.

It wouldn't be The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past, would it? He's not Link's best friend, but his uncle dies under very similar circumstances to what you just described.

No, lol. In all reality I could just be remembering it incorrectly and it's a ps1 game (which is a possibility and would explain why I can't find it). I think there was a clown or something in a chair or crib or some sort of furniture and he throws you out a window and that's why you start the game in the courtyard. There also might have been playing-card people.

EDIT: He might just knock you out and then put you outside; as I've said, my mind's a little foggy on the whole thing.

i have a game i remember playing on a demo disk for the ps1 and would love to find again and play i know for sure it was on a demo disk with tench stealth assassin cause i would always play both of them one after the other. Anyways the game involved a human girl that was in a robotic age if i recall correctly the game was an overview like diablo and i know she had 3 different attack 1 was a purple time like bomb 1 was a red fire bomb and the last was electric based and at the end of the demo was a big robot that you faced and it had 4 legs sadly that is all i can remember i have tried looking up demo disks with tenchu stealth assassin and demos with one of the star-wars games even tried looking for the pizza hut special demo disks cause that's what my father got us but i cant find that game for the life of me. if anyone can help out that would be great.

I've got another one. This was on PC, maybe Windows 95 or earlier. It was and Ocarina of Time style gameplay and you had to skate (I THINK) around rooms to collect keys. The rooms were almost mazes and you only stopped moving if you hit a wall. Pretty sure you had to collect different kinds of boots to move on different surfaces, like some boots that could walk on ice instead of skate. The skating thing may only have been in one particular room though, not sure
I found this comment while looking for this exact game and I FINALLY found it!!
It's called Chip's Challenge http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chip's_Challenge
