Hello everyone. There is a game I used to play I believe on the PS1

The few things i can remember though is that i was in an icy/frozen tundra area and my characters health would constantly chip down unless i did something about him being too cold. I remember i couldnt pause the game and that eventually my character froze to death. I believe it was an action/adventure game. If anyone could help me rediscover this game that would be incredibly appreciated. Thank you

The cold mechanic reminds me of Lost Planet, but that's too recent to be it :/

Looking for a super obscure playstation 1 game that was like Arena Brawl with powerups all over the level. It was 3d and only thing i remember from that game was that it had character named Kafka or Kaefka. I tried to find it but its impossible so i have hope at least one of you guys played it!

There is a character called Kefka in Final Fantasy 6, which is on the PS1 as well as other consoles of the time. I have no idea if you collect powerups over the levels as I have not played it myself. Sorry if this wasnt what you were looking for.

The cold-dying mechanic at the beginning of the game reminded me of Overblood. Is more of a survival horror than an action adventure but it might fit the bill.

I remember playing some kid of top down shooter on PC in which you control a yellow-green mech. Isometric controls, and no available upgrades. Most levels have bosses of some sort, and secondary weapons are pickups, and primary dual MGs. secondary weapons include seeker missiles and possibly land mines. some levels include silver mechs which shoot missiles at your enemies, which can be gigantic tank-like vehicles or non-mobile radar dishes or small tanks or other mechs. a specific cheat i remember is press "I" to go to the next level/planet. i think there were about six or eight planets, with a different objective every planet. i dont know if it was free or not, but i just cant remember the name for the life of me.

Hi everybody.

I have now spent the last 8 hours looking for this game, which has been the culmination of an on and off again search for many a year. I don't remember much about the game as I only rented it at a video store near my friends house for one weekend in the late 90's early 2000's. All I can remember is that it was a fantasy based game, either in an action-adventure or RPG genre. I think it was released on the Playstation (though I could be wrong).

The only thing I can remember at all was parts of the character creation (You would think character creation on the PS1 would be easy to find), you had all the usual Macguffins such as name and gender but you also received cards (fortune cards maybe, maybe something to do with a horoscope), which the game gave to you randomly (apparently) and were able to choose your characters personality, such as happy or angry, these determined how your character responded when reading signs or talking to NPC's. The one that I remember choosing was silent (which basically meant that the only thing your character ever uttered was a somewhat passive aggressive ellipses).

I vaguely remember the art style being slightly cartoonish, and one of the first areas being a forest. However, memory is not a reliable witness and I would not stand by any of this in court.

Edit: Can't remember if the characters were 2D Sprites or 3D Meshes. The camera was a Isometric style.


I appreciate any help you can provide, even if it is just another clue that I can start tracking down.

I don't even know why I want to play this game again (As I played it for a day a long time ago). I think it is because I can still remember the tortured angst of the silent character, the amount of dark emotion when he replied "...".

I used to play a game in PS1, a side scrolling one. You controlled a ship and had to shoot flying enemies, as usual. When you beagn a new game, you woould start at level A, after completing it, you had to choose between level B and C, on the end of every level there were two different level options. Depending on which level you chose, there you would be different pathways toward the final boss.
I remember that, in a particular level, the boss was some sort of snake that could throw blades at you.

Thanks for the suggestions I know I didn't really leave a whole lot to go off of. unfortunately is wasn't OverBlood, The Thing or Lost Planet. Thank you for the youtube links as well. I only remember one scene from the game and that is where my character died because he was too cold. I watched the whole Overblood lets play for that scene and didnt find it any landscapes that looked similar. I dont want to mislead anyone but whenever i try to hard to remember what it was i always think of crusaders of might and magic however I know for a fact it isn't that game. ( i must have played them at the same time) I appreciate all of your helps and suggestions.

Hi,
i'm looking for old strategy game, probably from around 1999 (i played demo somewhere around that year). There was some kind of a knight, maybe king, who has power to conjure up things, like defend towers (they could be placed only on special spots). He had his army, but i can't remember that they were bought by cash or mana (maybe mana, probably mana was the only material for everything). From his opponents, i remember only creatures in cages (dogs probably), they were throwing fireballs.
If anyone could help me i will be very happy.
Thanks.

I'm looking for a late 90s/early 2000s PC adventure game that was kind of a dystopian retrofuture. Similar to Bioshock or Fallout in artwork style. I don't remember much else about it. The one part I remember were CRTs with typewriters where you could enter/get information - kind of steampunk style.

Any guesses?

HELP!!!

I remember there was a PC game that I used to play, possibly 1990's release. It looks similar to Baldur's gate, however isn't that. It was a strategy game, the only other thing that I can remember is that there was a character that was a Pegasus. Please help I really loved this game
It might have been on a graphics card, and the one i remember was a demo on another game. I was young at the time so don't remember much

Found it, it is Disciples 2

I have a couple of games in mind, both for PC, both childrens'/educational games from the late 90's or early 00's.

1. You play as some sort of anthropomorphic animal (possibly rabbit?). The part I remember best is on a farm, there's an old fashioned train that you fill up with coal and water. There's also a frog that says 'to be or not to be' (or possibly some cheesy pun variation?) and then swims around on his back and sings a song. I think the farm was just one area of several which you could explore, and I think you went from one area to another by train. I know this is very vague, but it's all I can remember.

2. I could've sworn it was called 'the fazoolis go to the beach' or something similar, but I can't turn up anything in google. Anyway, there's this family (mom, dad, and two or three kids, I think), and you start by packing the car (putting various items like beach umbrella and lunch box into the trunk), then you get to the beach and you can explore and do various activities, like finding the correct shell to fit a hermit crab. Eventually the sun is setting, it gets a twilight look, and then it's time to go home.

I LOVED these games as a kid, so it'd be amazing if anyone could point me in the right direction. Thanks!

[boomshanka]

hello,
I'm looking for a minigame where player was flying some kind of bug (a beetle maybe?) and were trying to avoid incoming motorcycles. They were riding faster and faster so it was getting harder over time. The longer you stayed alive the better was your result. There were several types of motorbikes coming to hit you, I remember choppers and superbikes. The steering was by mouse only.
Any guesses?
