Hi let me try again with this one.

I'm looking for an old arcade game. I remember playing it in the early to mid 90's on coin-op machine.
It was a side scroller where character walks and can jump and hit boxes with his head for bonuses (It is not Mario please calm).
He could fight the enemies by shooting them and trapping them in bubbles. You have to jump on the bubbles to finish them or to reach higher places in the level.
I remember that in the very first level you had to trap several enemies and jump on the bubbles they are in forming kind of bubble ladder, in order to climb kind of pyramid with boxes in order to reach some reward on top. The reward may have been a star of some sort but I'm not sure. Probably giving extra life of weapon I don't remember.

Thanks
Bumb

Also it is not Bubble Bobble. The game is more classical Mario like style but the gameplay is a bit different.

Regards.

A lost game i hope you guys can help me find

it's really old (1990-early 2000's) doesnt help much but that's all i can remember
as far as gameplay goes it's like this 3D world where you control characters in weird creepy dark areas and you can shoot out this ball as your weapon and had this cave place with green-ish water or slime

i know this isnt much but it's all i can remember sadly

Hope this is not a repost.
I can't really remeber too much, but i know there were (humanlike?) creatures, which tried to take over the houses of their enemys with skunks or traps in front of the frontdoors. When they came out they died, I think. I played it around 1998-2003. It was on a green island with a few trees, if this helps. Would be glad for any hint. I'm trying to figure this out for around 3 years without success.


I hope somebody out there knows what I'm talking about. Thank you very much in advance! :D

Hi everybody,
I used to play this game a lot years ago on my pc but I can't remember the title of the game.
So that game was a 2d side-scrolling combat game in which you had a character which you could move him back and forward (X axis) but also in and out (Z axis). This game had many characters, one of them was wearing a blue cloak and he had brown hair and as I remember he was a ninja and could also run fast and also he had something like an ability which could make him go stealth while running for maybe 1-2 seconds. The second character I can remember in that game was a male blonde with red clothes and his main ability was fire, he could throw fire and also he could turn himself into fire (like the guy from fantastic four) and run while he leaves a fire line (path) behind him in which if any enemy touched on would get burned. I don't know how many characters this game had but the last character that I can remember was knight with plate and a red mantle and what I remember from this character is that whenever he had low health you could press something on keyboard and make him make a move that would remove his plate but give him something like a sharp spear. I also remember that in this game some characters were faster than others and the game wasn't turn-based, it was real time. And the last thing I remember is the last stage which was in a castle I think and there was a big red carpet on the floor and the boss was someone with grey-black clothes and he was just a little taller than the regular game characters and I remember that he could throw something like a big purple fireball just like the second character that I described you with the only difference that this boss fireball was bigger and purple instead of normal fire-color fireball.
I hope that someone could help me, I've been looking for this game a lot and I spent a lot of hours in google images searching about 2d games and stuff like that but I could not find it so I will really appreciate if someone can help me with the title.

Ok this game I've been trying to find has been driving me mad

I for the love of me can't remember whether it was a Linux or a PC game, but i remember it was very similar to audiosurf in the way it worked/looked. No music import, just a puzzle racer where you controlled a ball and tried to get to the end of a generated track of obstacles. Black/gold/red-ish look, REAL simple principle, i think it was around the year 2005, single player. Users could try to beat the speed high score in which you beat each track, they get more and more complicated. I am pretty sure the ball was controlled with the mouse. 3d

Any ideas? I've certainly run out

Hello everybody! I am looking for a game that I don`t really know if is it famous or not... I tried to find it in all the ways I could possibly try. Anyway, here it goes:

I used to play this game in the early 90s in my PC. It is an arcade in which the main character runs right and left only. This main character was a man with mustache holding a machine gun and the starts in a destroyed city where cars are in flames, people are dead and there are lots of creatures to kill. One of the creature I remember pretty well was a pinky one that crawls slowly and try to bite you. In tghe first level you enter in a corporative building filled with creatures and dead bodies. The second level (I am not so sure) everything hapens in a jungle and you can clib all the trees there.

That`s all I remember about it. Hope someone knows!

Thanks

Hi, I am looking for a pixelated game. I think it was an RPG. It was a PC game.
There was a boy who wanted to become a knight and a girl who wanted to become a sorceress/mage or sth. like that. I don't remember much of the storyline but after a while you would get a time skip, main characters would be all grown up and trained to become what they wanted. Also you used the spacebar to attack I think.
I played this game around 2000 that's all I remember.

Hi there - I need help with this!!!!!

I remember playing an old PC Game with a British (?) explorer dressed possibly in Colonial/typical archaeologist gear (Grey costume, large belt, shorts, brown boots, etc.) which involved point and click puzzles based around ancient civilizations - there was a Mayan/Aztec puzzle wheel of some type, an ancient Roman/Greek part and possibly a Japanese/Chinese area, though I'm not sure. At some point, I remember that there was a camel which spat at you if you clicked it, and the explorer would cry "I SAY!" in a Received Pronunciation accent. not sure what it was called, but I'm fairly sure it was a PC game. Thanks!

I have this game. It's pixelated and has a set up kind of like final fantasy. Your from another world and you have a tail. You don't have any memories of your old life. I remember it saying stars or something like that in the title. I played it on a psp but it was emulated. Please help me!

It doesn't really have Star in the name I remembered that at some point, you did go to space. I only THINK it was emulated it was about 5-6 years ago when I played it. It's like a sandbox where the map is like zelda kinda...

PLEASE HELP ME! I CAN'T SLEEP!


Reposting this! Someone think they can help?

Alright guys im not so sure how easy this one is going to be but lets try it.

I used to play it back around in 2005 2006, its a 2D game where you're a guy (black hair I think) and you have a gun. There are 2 monsters that I clearly remember, one is a minotaur-like monster and the other is a flying robot. If i'm not wrong there were different colors of robots but they were all pretty much the same. I'm pretty sure the game is not futuristic, you use a common gun. If im not wrong the character wore a black shirt or tank top.

I've been dying to know the name of this game, hope someone recognizes this!

I'm trying to find a strategy game that I vaguely remember playing quite a while back. I'm guessing around 1995, but that's a stab in the dark.

You were some kind of overlord or something with a castle/tower in the center of a grid of map spaces.

Enemies would move towards your castle from the edges of the map, and you would have to attack them. You would load up the tactical map and your avatar and/or monsters would attack them. There were a few different races of enemies - I think I remember some of them having beak faces, but they were all various different kinds of monsters.

The mechanic that I remember most was if you captured them alive you could merge the different enemies together in your castle to make monsters out of them. I think I remember researching spells and stuff too in the castle.

I can't recall if it was real time or turn based at the strategic map level of things, but the tactical battles I am fairly sure were real time.

Alright I made an account just for this so I hope you can help me because I am awake at 3 AM trying to figure out what the hell all these old games I half remember are. One in particular which has been bothering me for ages was one I played in the early/mid 90's. It was on a floppy (at least 2) and it was a colorforms game. I can't remember anything about it except shapes. I know theres a couple now but I haven't found any that look familiar or install with a black floppy disk.
I don't remember any particular theme, so I feel like it was generic colorforms but I remember and my family remembers me playing it all the time.

Hey!
I'm trying to remember an old game i played long time ago. ( i'm 18 years old now )

The game was build like a maze but you still could see the whole map.
There was monsters like Mummys, vamprires, flowers, green frankstaine, werewolves...
in some levels there also was a giant monster like the ones i already said and darkness that you could see your character.
How you killed the monsters? you took items and throw / stab the monster.
I remember you could also kill the flowers by Spraying them, and the vampires by stabbing them with a Wooden stake.
There was many levels on the game.

Thanks so much for the helpers!!!
P.S PLEASE HELP ME D:
