I guess you have played a "Creatures" game

http://www.mobygames.com/game-group/creatures-series

Maybe the box art or some screenshot may help you identify the correct game (if it's among them).
Hi! Thank you, but no. Those little creatures were 'cartoonish', graphics were flat, this looks as if it has some degree of 3d. The game was called as the creatures themselves, and it was a cutesy name that may have sounded something like Smoogies, Poogies or variations thereupon.

Thanks though!

Edit: I got it!!!!! it was Dweebs 2--> http://www.myplaycity.com/dweebs_2/

Hey everyone, Anyone remember the name of an older, possibly nintendo game where the cover is a kid who's scared in bed with monsters coming out from underneath. That's all I can remember, i think it was 3d as well. Not Nightmare Ned.

Okay so this one drives me crazy! I've been looking for this really long time and I have actually started to think that the whole game has deleted.

I played this online game like 5-7 years ago some place I can't remember. It was really simple game: you just had to make a tunnel through the sand (by pressing right or maybe left button of your mouse) that hundreds, maybe thousands of little blue men got gold. They carried them back to the ground from underground and made a heap and did it again until they had the gold what they needed. When you reached level three or four there were also some green acid which killed the men if they touched it.

I would be REALLY happy if someone remembered that! That was really fun game, you know. :)

I have a game that I'm trying to find, an old one that used to be on PC

Its a Mature rated game that came out at least 10-15 years ago. You start with the standard class picking between something like warrior, thief, mage or Paladin. Its a full 3D game

Next you start floating in a Wizards room (and you can swim around in the air) where he explains that a dragon has awoken and you need to save the kingdom blah blah blah and then teleports you near to a castle where you can walk down into the city.

Honestly I could go on and on with details, but the beginning of floating in the wizards room is the only detail someone would need to guess it if they know it.

Thanks Everyone!

I'm trying to find an old PC game, from Windows 95 I'm pretty sure, and it was just about smashing flies. Flies would land and you would try to hit them with the cursor which was like a mallet or a hammer. When you hit the fly, it turned into a blood splatter. So it was kind of like a whack-a-mole style game but with flies and it was a really simple game that came on the old Windows computers.

If anybody can help me remember the name, it'd be awesome! Thank you.

I remember playing a game when I was younger that was on Playstation or PS2. It was older and it had to be either a later Playstation game or one of the first PS2 games released. I don't remember all the details of the game or even the story line but I do remember the protagonist was a young tribal boy that had to collect bells that were along the paths of the woods. I don't recall the bells being in a village. They were more of in a wood looking area and the boy had to avoid waking up a purplish/pinkish bear that slept in the woods. On the cover the boy stood in front with the bear awake behind him with a vicious look on its face. I know it wasn't Tak and the Power of Juju or Tak and the Staff of Dreams. Please help! I have been searching for this game for far too many years

Okay, this is an obscure one.

I'm trying to find the name of an arcade game I played on an emulator in college, about 5 or 6 years ago (but I assume the game is older, probably from the late '80s or early '90s).

It was a collection of mini-games from Japan (or possibly Korea?), with imperfectly translated English.

Some of the mini-games included:

- a witch flying on a broomstick

- a spot-the-difference game called "Differant" (spelled incorrectly like that)

- a shooting game that instructed you not to "shoot to a baldhead"

- a game where you rescued people from a burning building (the men you rescued said, "Thank you" in a comically low voice, the women said it in a comically high voice)

I want to say the title involved a repeating word, like "Bam Bam" or "Pow Pow" or whatever, but I might be remembering that wrong.

Hello everyone, I remember a specific game that I was in love with and I can't find it anywhere:
*It was a cat or something with really huge ears dropping down and a collar
*His mission was to find his girlfriend which she was kiddnapped
*It started as: A happy village and suddenly a storm was on it. The miles where moving and shiez. A scene where his Girlfriend was kiddnaped
*I clearly remember collecting diamonds -greens and blue
*You start from your home, jumping around to collect the diamonds and proceed to other places to save your gf.
*I am not sure but the neko-like thing. Was black and white.
PLEASE SOMEONE HALP <3

Hello everyone, I am looking for a videogame like the Gabriel Knight 3, where you start inside of a tower of a Cathedral and you have to avoid some lasers. It was a mid/late 90's game. I remember that the main actor was dressed as a monk and the view was like the alone in the dark/resident evil one. You had to use the cursors to manage the guy. It was for PC.


Thanks in advance!

hey mate. can you also help me? I'm about to go insane...
Sorry, but I don't know your game. Being japanese it will be hard to track down that's for sure. I will dig on the web for something, but you have to wait a couple of days because I'm on charge on Christmas dinner and I will be very busy all day!
ok mate, thanks. and merry christmas.

no luck so far...I've checked many (maybe all!) snes and japanese super famicom rare games and none looks like the one you're looking for. Are you pretty sure it was a snes game? I mean, maybe it was for sega genesis or playstation. In fact, somehow I think it suits more in a playstation because the dark theme...there are of course a few dark themed snes like Blackthorne for example, but most are classic RPGs or usual Mario-like platformers...Anyway, I'll keep an eye if something rings a bell but I must confess that I'm unable to find your game..

PC game: Third person , game was 3D, but old, about 10-15 years old by its graphics. You had to control a hero, which was fighting like a samurai with a sword. You had to go through levels, kill enemies (they were blue and red with swords too as far as I remember). Later strange gorillas with yellow and red eyes. There were boss monsters too. It was possible to do fighting combinations in that game. What I remember else, there were 8 levels. When you complete them, you have to go from level 8 and back all the levels you completed before till you get to the first one (you just had to go back where you came from). Enemies, which you killed before, revived and they were like zombies and skeletons, which you had to kill too. There was a statue in first level, which requied a special weapon to destroy. Then you get to dungeons, where the final boss is (I think it was a dragon with 3 heads, each got different color and abilities. There you complete the game. I remember that I had a fighting challenge after completion of every level. When you complete challenge, you get a scarf increasing your maximum HP. And the last thing I remember is that you could collect tokens with dragon markings on them but I don't remember what they were used for..That game looks like Prince Of Persia, but with slightly different gameplay

Greetings. I'm glad that i stumbled upon a thread like this. I've got two games that always returns to my mind once in a while.
First one, PS1 game: I believe that your character that you are playing is a Vampire, whom can transform into either a bat or a wolf, giving you certain perks whilst in those form. The memories of the graphic somewhat reminds me of Diablo 1. The camera angle is asquint from above. And i believe your health were displayed in a red globe, just like in Diablo. You'd might have a mana globe as well but i'm not sure. To regain health you'd have to suck blood from dead enemies, or from alive humans. If i'm not mistaken, the cover of the game was the face of the character. Pale, white hair and holding a curved dagger lining up from his chin going alongst the nasal bone.
That's all the memories that i can recall. I was about eleven years old, being born 1990. I've given this description to people that i've encountered before, and Symphony of the night is constantly returning, but i assure you, that's not it.

Second game. PC Game: Played somewhere around 98-00 but it were probably much older, played it on windows 95. 2D. I believe that you could play 2 or 3 characters. A robot(?) Something reminding me of Chewbacca and just a regular though guy, probably in a black leather vest. The playstyle was a mix between the sneaky, get away from alarms / turrets like in Oddworld as well as there were straight up shooting. I believe it was a bit bloody. There were also places were you'd have to climb the walls to advance. It's a bit short of memories, but it's worth a shot.

Whilst we're at it i might just go for a third game.
PC Game, probably manufactured by an Asian company. Played 99-01. You'd control a mechawarrior. And i remember one of two fire mechanics looked so much like the railgun from Quake. The enemies, which were soldiers, looked really tiny on screen, like ridiculous tiny in comparison what i believe it would've looked like in reality. When they died they became a splat of blood, and i believe the bodied could fly away due to the impact of your firearms. Some parts of the game were played in street environment. Another part were inside some military facility, and during that point of time you'd play as regular human. The graphics were actually descent. It's buggering me of that i can't remember more of this game because i'm pretty sure i actually played the whole game. EDIT: This game is played in first person.
Anyways, thanks alot for taking your time reading this. And i'll be so greatful if anyone has a slightest clue about the games that i'm trying to describe.
Best regards, Emanuel

To be honest, at first I thought it was a sega mega drive game. but I could'nt find anything. so I thought "maybe it was a snes game..."

it may also be a sega genesis game but I only had 2 consoles. one was sega mega drive. the other was a 8 bit black box which I don't even remember the shape...

Could be "Shogo: Mobile Armor Division" by "Monolith Production".
