Hey All,

So I am looking for a game for my boyfriend it's one he used to play and I don't know the name of it and neither does he. The game was a Sims like game where you played a ghost. Your objective was to haunt people and scare them out of the house. As you got better at haunting people it would become harder to scare them and you would have to poses different objects. Does anyone know the name of a game that is like that at all??
Sounds like "Ghost Master" to me.

Hi everyone,
As you can see, I joined this forum purely for the purpose of this post, so if anybody could help me out it would be greatly appreciated. I've looked through lists of old Windows games and still not been able to identify the one I'm thinking of.
It was a point-and-click demo game which came with 95 or 98, and you were a man wondering round a town where you had (possibly) woken up from amnesia or something and you didn't know where you were or what year it was. So you had to find money in order to buy a newspaper so you could find out the date. I seem to remember the money had a weird name, like "rupees" or similar. Then, for some reason, you leave the town place by some sort of hot air balloon, and you're navigating over an ocean and that's when the demo stopped.

This has been driving me crazy for years, and I've spent so much time trawling through lists online to see if I could identify it, but nothing seems to fit the bill. Like I say, any help at all would be fantastic! Thanks!
Im looking for this game also! Please help me! although i remember playing full version.

I know i'm posting twice but this is bugging the crap out of me, so when i was really young i played this game that was top down( in the same way Pokemon is) played a lot like Pokemon to in the way that it was a turn based combat, and there was a party of like 3 or 4 people with you and i remember one level area there was this giant tent for like carnivals and there was a lot of enemies in there, also the graphics looked a lot like 2nd 3rd gen Pokemon. sorry i keep comparing it to Pokemon but its all i have, oh also there was like magic spells and whatnot that some of your party members could cast to hurt baddies and stuff, i have literally been searching for this game for years and Google has nothing for me.
Oh right it was on i'm like 90% sure it was on PC.
Also i believe that when some of the units, on your side or the other had like, range and whatnot so you had to like position some of your units like archers and wizards and stuff farther back, i really wish i new more but that's all igot.
so, like im thinking nobody bought me this game, cause when i was younger that never really happened, so like maybe it was a online game or.... shit i dont know. man this bothers me more than it should.

There is a PlayStation game that I played on my uncle's console when I was a little lad. It was on a demo disc. All I remember is being this character (male) and he is on a conveyor belt. it's almost like a cannery factory, because i remember if the machines canned you, you'd be in the can and your character would be screaming from inside. It used to freak me out a little. I think i'd enjoy the game a lot more now, but i don't remember the title. Thanks!

Hi Hi everyone, need Urgent Help (!) finding this jewel game for pc. It was around 90's I believe. It would start with shape outlines you'd have to fill with different kinds of gems/jewels, then gradually it would move up and shapes would get bigger/more intricate and you'd have to fill an animal outline instead of a basic shape. The jewels you picked for the shape moved in a constant line at the bottom of the screen, had a black background.

Pleasee help if anyone remembers, please please.

There was this game that my dad had back in the mid-90s on our Apple computer. I don't remember too much about it, but I remember walking around a dark, futuristic looking city in the beginning and you could walk into the buildings and one of the buildings was a bar with a female alien dancing on a table? in it. I think there might have been flying cars above you in the city too? It was a first person view and I'm pretty sure it was point and click. Sorry I don't remember more about it. Anyone have any ideas?
Bump. I REALLY need to figure this out. Can anyone help?

Hello world. So there's this old PC game I remember playing as a kid, (either windows 95 or 98). It was a two player fighting static platformer. The characters were these little round furry red and blue creatures that had disembodied gloved hands and sneakers and you could either punch each other or pick up items like guns and jet packs and such. There was usually water at the bottom of the level and you died if you fell into it. I don't know, any ideas?

This is the last pitch effort to finally find this game. About ten years or so ago i played a game on PC that resembled the old arcade game centipede A LOT. But, one major difference between the two is the game i am trying to find is not a low bit game. From what i remember the resolution was pretty solid. The game was not 3d or anything like that. You played as some alien creature in a space suit! (not ship like centipede 98) and shot at mushrooms, lily pads, spiders and what not. The game had an array of different levels arranging from water levels to space levels and others. This game was also bundled with a demo for a frog game if that helps at all.

Hi everyone. I remember playing this Japanese truck simulator game at around the middle of '00s. It was on an arcade machine with a steering wheel. Not sure if it was an actual arcade cabinet or just a console with some accessories. Anyway the game had 2,5D-like graphics and you drove in a truck in first person in a city while trying to save some girl who was constantly talking to you with her static face and some hieroglyphs. I remember the game having sad music and a sad story where people died and the girl also died at game over (or maybe you crashed and died, I don't quite remember). Anyway, Japanese truck driving game with a melancholic atmosphere. Would appreciate some suggestions :)

Hello people. I've made an account on this forum so I can get some help from you. It's gonna be a hard one, it's something unusual. I'm looking for an old puzzle PC game, from like windows 98 era, where you steer red colored fluffy ball or something like this. It was in a 2.5D perspective. I remember that you moved mirrors to direct laser beam towards ice blocks and such to clear the way to the exit I suppose. If you accidentaly hit yourself with the laser, you'd become a pile of ashes, left with eyes only that were having a sad look. Sadly, that's all I remember. I tried googling a lot with no luck. I will continue to search but I hope somebody does recognize this game :) I really loved it as a kid.

No, but it was pretty similar, the characters were fuzzy balls and it had a little better graphics.

Thinking of a PC game that I played as a kid that probably came out of a cereal box, haha. I don't remember a lot about it, besides the fact that there was a wrecking ball and blueprints, but there was probably more things to it. It probably would have came out in the early 2000's, as i'm only 18 and I remember the graphics being better than the 90's game.

I need some help finding a game. I don't remember much about it. I remember that my sister and I both played it so it was either a two player game or we just took turns and helped each other figure out what to do.(Can't remember) You played as a boy and girl who could go through this painting and it led them into a different world or dimension...or something. After going through the painting they ended up in the woods and you played little mini games to get back home..maybe? I think it started out in color but once you go through the painting it was black and white, or vise versa. It was kind of a dark game. I kind of remember it being similar to the story of hansel and gretel but not quite. What bugs me is that I just remember stumbling across a huge wall and having to figure out the puzzle to get through...but my sister and I always got stuck at that part! And I want to play it again!!!!

I hope someone can help me figure this out

Hey guys,

I'm looking for a point & click game from the 1990's that I cannot remember the name of. I played the demo for it that came with (I think) Sim City 2000 or some other Maxis game.

Basically, the demo of the game was of only one level of the entire game. You start out on a dock with a boat next to you. Apparently, you cannot leave the valley you're in until you some how "stop" the two mountains that make up the opening of the valley from smashing together and crushing you and your boat. I remember having to reach into a barrel and pull an item out of it. And then scaring off a seagull toward the mountains. The mountains crushed the bird, and some how that kept them from crushing you and your boat when you went to leave... That's all I remember.

I believe the front cover also had a cyclops on it? Also, your main character looked like either a barbarian or Norse, etc.

I really want to find this game again! Hope one of you can help! Thanks!

Okay, so I remember this game where you were like a little bear with a backpack and you could turn into things that were not a little bear with a backpack like a truck, or a bee, or a toaster. I think some sort of bird was involved??
