Old Games you remember playing but can't remember the name of.

[dontmove]

I don't know if mine really counts, cause I found the game again after YEARS of searching and not remembering the name, but my best one of all the ones I've ever forgotten is by far Legend of Legaia for the PS1. It's a final fantasy esque game but the combat system is so unique and ahead of its time. I remember spending countless hours just grinding mobs because I loved the combat so much! If youre a fan of RPGs you HAVE to play it, the game in whole is breath taking.

Does anyone know an educational PC game where it involves a gang that teaches you stuff when you click on the environment? I believe it had a frog as part of the gang, but you were able to travel to places such as a construction site, a doctor's office, a grocery store, etc., those are the only places that I know from the top of my head right now. I haven't played that game since I was a wee lad, and if you guys know what the game is, could you please tell me? It was one of my favorite educational games growing up. Will give hugs to anyone who knows. Thanks!

old computer game i remeber vaugely.
pretty sure it was 2d and close up, so you couldnt see the whole map. i think the character was a yellow smiley face (alothough i may just be confusing that with pacman). the whole game was very retro electonic. pretty sure there were things you had to figure out, like how to get through electric doors maybe. its all very fuzzy in my head.
the menu screen was sort of like a circuit board, and the whole game had ectriconic music playing.

sorry its not very clear, but this has been bugging me for ages!

I think the game you're looking for is Decker.

Hey, I need help remembering the name of this old 2D game I used to play. It was barely a game prolly by most standards; you were the director of a film studio and you got to direct the movies (it might've just been one movie, but with several variables even). One of the main actresses had red hair and a red dress, and you could change how they said their lines, props on the set and scenery. It was very cartoony. I think there was even a part of the game where you could write your own scenes or plays or something. It was called something like 'lights, camera, action' or 'lights, drama, action' I think. I've tried googling it but with no luck (why is there a cake mania thing called lights camera action!?)

It was a lesser known game I think; my dad got it for me in a bargin bin or a thrift store or something along with a game/interactive novel or something called The Cat Came Back that I never played, and the Yukon Trail. I just can't seem to recall the name of this! Please help my nostalgia crisis!

I remember playing this game on pc in like mid 2000s, it was a 2d fighting game and it had 3d models. (view from the side) but it was more up, not like street fighter for example. (I think that's 2.5d?), you could play with like 3 or 4 players, with keyboard or with connected controllers, it had a dark theme (maps were pretty dark or rainy), you could pick up items like baseball bats etc. and there were like stages of different enemies, like it switched from beating up bandits to security guards and at the last stage there was like a boss fight. All the stages were in the streets and all of them took time at night except the last one I think. I can't remember anything else. If someone knows this game please reply!!

Final Fight?

No unfortunately not, it was not this type of game, like i said it had like 3d models and it wasn't that much of an arcade type game. But thanks for your reply!!

(Sorry for the poor english)

Somebody already asked about this game but nobody answered.

I remember playing it back in the '90's as a child (PC).
From what I can remember, it's a point and click adventure game (2D), the main character is a pig in a seemingly post-apocalyptic setting. There were two prominent goals that I can remember. The first being finding pieces of a flying car, and the second is collecting dragon's eggs. The dragon's eggs were collected when one dragon would appear and, after giving him a trinket i.e. a toothbrush or a pair of glasses, he would quiz you on basic trivia. If you answered the questions correctly, he gave you an egg. It was definitely an educational game meant for children, but it had a spooky atmosphere to it.

Thanks in advance !

Hi, i'd like to ask you too.
I played it on the PC on Windows XP or 98, and it was about a guy exploring catacombs or dungeons and the objective was to get keys that came in 3 colors (red, yellow and blue, I think) and get to the exit. I think there were zombies, skeletons and mummies and a few weapons, like a shotgun, bombs and a minigun maybe. the games was like a top-down 3d game or something like that. You can compare it with Gauntlet's gameplay style.
Please, tell which game is it!

I had this PC game in the 90s, it was like 5 or 6 flopppy disk instalattion, don0t know if it was like a real game but your were in a house, and you could go to different rooms and each room was like a minigame. like the owner of the house was like a "crazy wacky dude" it was like comedy game, one room had like a fireman tube so you can go down, but I can't remember more.

I want to find it so bad!

Castle of Dr Brain?

no :/, it wasn't like a obscure game like that one, it was like wacky and I don't thing you have like an "objective" just see each room and see the crazy stuffs.

 

[qzole]

I played this game maybe in the early 2000s or late 90s. It was a strategy game for the PC, with simple top-down graphics. The goal of the game was to destroy the other players (controlled by the computer). I remember that there were monster nests that you could wipe out, so that your soldiers could level up, every unit could get experience and level up, maybe up to lvl 90 I think. If I'm not mistaken there were also heroes with special abilities.
The monsters were kinda interesting looking, there was a spiky yeti kind...
I'm going mad cause I can't find it!
Thanks in advance.

 

[psukhomanteia]

wonder if anyone knows of 2 games one of which was similar to simcity but was roman based had animated characters like sims that would arrive in rickshaws/ wagons and make tents as you make homes then as you make larger building things upgrade could place cobblestone roads and stuff. i don't remember much else about it it was really old but really good. not sivcity rome.

another game was a game that required players to move round blocks/rocks around on a map that was top down i believe had music such as yanky doodle dandy and other songs, i don't remember much of the objective i feel like it had some bad enemies of some sort that couldn't be killed but could be blocked but they only showed up sometimes. i remember one map was just round blocks in a patter similar to a filled checkerboard board with spaces between each block to be moved but they had to be moved a specific way or you would be trapped. bother were playerd on or before windows 95/98 pc

I do not know what the second game is but the first is likely one of the Caesar series of games.

Hi, please help me, i want to find this game that i played in 2001-2005. It's a quest/adventure game, seems like isometric but first-person. It's somewhat related with (maybe finding or playing as)Santa and Christmas and ships. Locations that I can remember is Santa's house, Small ship and quiz TV-show like room, and also a Mayor house. Please help me!
Also it runs in Windowed mode on my PC, but I dont know maybe it was like that only for me.

That could be one of the Warlords Battlecry games.

Played in 1990 on a super old Macintosh. It had to do with space, and something about cows as well. Sorry I don't have a lot of info, it is hard to remember.

 

[andrewjames1998]

The second game was some kind of RPG i think i know you had some kind of hero, there was some kind of lizard man that you could have as a hero and you explored the world you could sleep at night go in the caves or dungeons and gain items and levels, at day/night you would walk the world and enemies would walk randomly if you collided with them you would engage them in battle (heores of might and magic style) i also remember that you could visit towns and houses, there were also strong guards if you attacked them they would kill you in 2-3 strikes.That game was also played on windows 98/95.

ALSO when you died you went into this swamp heaven and got resurrected by some lizard angel. I remember playing this game around 6-7 years ago.

PS1 game where there are two teams of robots (you and NPCs) and you fight each other in variety of maps. All I can remember is one of the robots you play as is like a kangaroo. His two arms in front of him and he jumps and never walks. Also you can capture turrets.
