Hi all,
The game I'd love to find back (and play as I never finished it) was on AMIGA I think (I had a PC so it's not on PC, I played it at a friends place). I think it was around 1990-94. The was was 1 or 2 players. Playing together.
It was game where each single 2D screen was 1 level (hundreds of level I think).
Each of the player was some sort of alien (or human in a spacesuit) able to walk horizontally on the bottom of the screen from left to right or right to left. The whole background wasn't moving so we could only go to the the end left or right of the screen.
The game consisted of shooting vertically some sort of rope (or bullets if we got another gun). That rope or cable was there to be the touched by falling and bouncing planets. Each planet(s) at the start of the level was as big as the character and each time we hit a planet it divided into 2 smaller planets.
So it was like 1 LARGE planet divided in 2 MEDIUM, Divided in 2*2 SMALL, Divided in 2*2*2 TINY ball-planet that we finally destroyed completely. Once all planets were gone, we cleared the level and passed to the other one.
I loved the game playing with my friend as we divided the job to destroy the planets.
Of course there were bonuses, shields etc... falling from the sky o when planets divided and then we fought to get the bonus, get some few seconds immortality or so. Very fun to play. Would love to have this on ANDROID.
I just found PANG. Now, I'm not sure it was PANG as I remember planets and not balls. So it was like 100% PANG but in space.

So I remember playing this game when I was in first school in like 1999.

It's some sort of educational/adventure game I think and the only details I remember are the following scenes/puzzles:

-Drinks machine puzzle near the beginning involving getting a conveyor belt to pump out the correct drink in the correct way without spilling it.

-At some point there is a quiz that involved chickens having a foot race. For every wrong answer you give your chicken would get a blister and if they had too many they lost the race

-There's a scene where you are in a control room or something and there's a robot on the other side of the door trying to cut his way through so you had to do something in a certain amount of time before he cut through it.

That's all I really remember about it except that maybe it starts with you in a jungle or something? I don't event know if it was a DOS/Windows game or if it was on some other computer system like the acorn electron.

The graphics were quiet bad for the day and the game itself might have been a lot older than the late 90s early 2000s that's just when I went to this particular first school and played this particular game.
If anyone can help me I'd be super grateful, been googling like mad for weeks trying to locate this game.

Oh also it might not make a difference but it was played in a UK school.

Hi all. I tried to find this game on YouTube on all NES games and all ATARI games, but I find nothing. You were a UFO and killing in first stage soldier and second tanks. You could also convert these enemies to your side. You fly to enemy and with beam pull in your UFO. Its take few sec. and you can?t do anything. When it?s done, enemy is in your side and you can choose him in right-down. You can have I think 10 of each type enemy. I think its haven?t got end, because after final stage where was all enemies, game start again and you have still your army in your inventory. You were down and enemies up. In first stage background is green.
thank you for your help.

Okay so I have had this game on my mind now for a while and I cannot remember the name of it but have very vivid memories of it so I will do my best to describe it. (I played it when I was about 4 or 5 and I'm 17 now so it's an older game.)

-almost barbie like but not Barbie
-taking care of horses/ possibly pegasus' (?) and unicorns
-there was a part where you would take your pegasus out in a field and catch glowing butterflies and decorate your horse
-you could garden in a green house (it was so pretty omg)



I hope this is enough information, any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you in advance!

I think Secret of the magic crystals is the game https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WBsLUczZxv0

Sadly that wasn't it. Thank you though! Edit: it was played on pc in the early 2000s if this is any help!!

Can you tell if it was in 1st person 3rd person etc?

It was first person and when you collected the butterflies you put them in a beaker type thing. Pretty sure it had 3rd person moments also but I could be wrong. If it did then the girl had blonde hair. Thank you for the help!

Hi everyone! There are 3 childrens PC games that I've been trying to remember for about 10 years now! They were all 90's games. Sorry I can't remember all the details!
The first one was a top down adventure game where you played as a woman (dwarf?) in a mine. It was 2D game but it was almost 2.5D. The camera wasn't directly above the character, it was like diagonal if that makes sense. I didn't get very far in it, I just recall clicking past mining carts and a dwarf man calls you by the name "Cookie nose". Any clues?

The second one was a 2D shooting side scroller where you played as a blimp of sorts. You'd shoot enemy blimps and when you beat the level you could upgrade your own blimp!

The last one was a 2D colourful point and click (educational?) game that consisted of many animals, the narrator of the game being a tiger or a lion. He'd always stand outside a treehouse. I rememember colouring in different animals. I'll try to think of more clues!

Help me please. It's a PS1 side scrolling (2d) game, robot-like, the game style was like megaman x. It's like a big robot with mostly white and a bit blue clearing a stages, it can do combo, can sliding as far as i remember, and when you defeat the boss stage, you can acquire a power-up ability that as far as i remember was animal-based mechanical ability that you can use like a boar, a winged horse, a snake(probably).

Really want to play it again but i had no luck to find it, ugh.-- Thanks for help.

I don't remember any names. My mom said she swears it was a My Little Pony game but I'm not 100% on that. Maybe that might help with something? I remember there was a green house and you would pick the flowers you wanted to grow and would help them grow. I wish I could be more descriptive! Thank you so much for the help.
EDIT:I found the game my mom was referring to. It was My Little Pony: Friendship Gardens. I also remembered that the game might have fairies in it but it probably didn't.

Hey there, I don't have much of a description other than it's (I firmly believe, anyway) a JRPG from either NES or SNES. Done in the style of FF or even Lufia.

the only part I remember is the adventurers had entered a maze of glass looking to attain a spell or something of some sort.

I don't remember it having any random encounters, but it did have a giant cloud surrounded eyeball that moved to catch you and force you to fight it, and you needed the spell/item in the maze to kill it.

The catch was that the boss moved two squares to your one.

EDIT: It might not have even been a maze of glass, I just remember being able to see scenery underneath the maze itself.

EDIT: SOLVED. After checking some youtube videos, it was a game called Paladin's Quest for SNES.

No idea if this has been mentioned or not but this game has been driving me nuts!

It was the mid 90s, around 1996-1998. This was on PC. The game was about picking out parts and building your own monster / creature and then testing him out in Minigames. There was a Dojo fighting one, a few platformers, I think one where you fed it random garbage and it grew? I dont 100% remember everything.

There was a mad scientist who was the narrator throughout the game and would chime in with witty 90s comments and one of the enemies was a giant pink blob that had the name "Mojo Jojo" or maybe just Mojo but it was something really close to that. And I cant remember for the life of me what the game is called! I dont have it any more, it disappeared quite some time ago, but maybe someone here could help me?

I'm not sure when the game came out but its definitely not a game from 2014 and forward because I remember playing it a while back. It is a flash game that for the life of me I can't seem to remember the name of

The game is a side scrolling shoot em up with a military theme. You were basically a soldier who stormed mercenary camps and killed everyone in it. The main hub of the game was a map with small icons that looked like camps/outposts and if you clicked on one you could go and kill everyone in it.

There were upgrades and a wide variety of different guns as well as a quest/mission system where you would have to go to certain camps/outposts and complete certain tasks

If anyone knows the name of this flash game could they please help me out and tell me the name, thank you.

Ok, so after looking for a long long time.. I'm hoping that one of you guys could help me out!?!

I'm looking for an online game (so only playable on a website that I can't find anymore) where you play on one of the different maps as a tank.
I remember you could pick a coloured team first.. there was a red, blue, purple, orange (and a green one, not sure) team.
The maps.. well I do remember one was something like castles (4, like a castle looking, grounds in every corner divided by water)
Another map was something like paloosa? And there are some more maps but not rememer the names.
Something with a desert also.

So you played as a small tank, starting out with the rank of recruit or something.. and gaining in level (corporal, lieutenant, captain, and so on) by shooting and killing other tanks.
The shooting was by clicking on the enemy (a lot was controlled by the mouse)

Playing on land and sea (with something like a ferry) and able to transport yourself to a different spot on the map.
By scanning the ground around you, you could find fuel and some attributes to help you (double shot and things like that)


Anybody have an idea? I would be very happy to find it after many many many years!



Ps: If there are any spelling mistakes, my native language is dutch (flemish).. so apologies :D
I'm doing the best I can.

Hey so after numerous failed google attempts, I'm going to ask here.

I think it was a PS1 or a PS2 game, but all I remember from the game is that you played as a female who had to fight these animals that were transformed into alien like monstronsities from a virus or an alien, at the end you fight the alien that caused it I think, or just a really deformed creature, it was a really unique concept and I really want to know what the name is.

Sounds like the PS1 Parasite Eve.

I hope this forum can help i have asked the name of this game in sooo many places but no one seems to know so here goes nothing.

it was a multiplayer 1st/3rd person shooter (you could switch at will)

the game has it's own website (which is the name of the game) (it got taken off it's original website (which i don't remember the name of))

you fight with people/robots (basically you could be a human with a robot suit on or a full robot) (it had a class type of thing) (again u could change it at will)

you can speed up and if you went to fast it'll say a "velocity warning"

they used real guns and laser guns

when you speed up it leaves like neon lights behind you

1 of the maps was all sand with a building under ground

it was F2P (free 2 play) and on the PC

it was a downloadable game

if you held down the speed up button without moving (which for me was the right mouse button) your character would kinda just hover in place

1 of the maps had the word "forgotten" in the its title (it was pretty much the best map) (i think it was forgotten palace)

it had all the standard modes (capture the flag, team death match, free for all, ETC)

there was a button your could press to kill yourself

it was like the game "tribes: ascend" so you could go really high in the air and stuff

when you killed someone they would blow up into pieces

1 of the maps had all grass had 2 huge towers on both ends of the map (well i say end but they were pretty close together) (really wish i could remember the name of the map)

there was a lobby type system and you could pick which room you wanted to join

when you captured the flag your character would hold it in his hand and also you could throw the flag

you could charge some weapons up (like 1 of the sniper weapons)

all i can remember for now hopefully someone knows what I'm talking about this game was a lot of fun (also it is not a recent game it was from a couple years back)

There's this one game I played years ago, but I can't seem to remember the name! All I remember is that it was a play on words between velociraptor (that's what you play as) and some other word; I just know it wasn't just plain "Velociraptor". The velociraptor has some kind of jetpack on it's back and you can use it to fly up to a limited altitude, and it also has lasers that you can use to defeat different enemy dinosaurs (includes the tyrannosaurus rex, and I think the triceratops). These lasers can be changed based on which upgrade you find (which are scattered across the terrain).

Good thing I remember the goal! The main goal is to collect all of the dinosaur eggs and I think put them in a certain place before your time runs out. If the time does run out, it shows a cut-scene of when the meteor hits and all of the dinosaurs die. And to add more detail on what the terrain/graphics look like, there's a tundra kind of area (the first place you start at), and a lava kind of area. The last area is another tundra kind of place except there's water, rock pillars (that look crappy in terms of detailed graphics), pterodactyls that attack you, and the last few eggs.

I know it's for Mac, but I don't know if it works on Windows. It looked pretty old. Let me know if anyone knows the name of this game!
