I have another one. It was an old World War 1 flight simulator for Windows 95, where your goal was to shoot down enemy German fighters and blimps. It had no textures at all, except for the nation's logos on the planes and stuff. The final challenge of the game was to face and defeat the Red Baron, who's plane was totally red. It wasn't Red Barron 3D, since the menu screens of the game took place inside of an old bunker. Inside the bunker you could hear and see all of the warfare going on in the skies above.

Hi there's this game I used to play on my pc in early 2000s I downloaded it for free off the internet. It starts out with the earth being created and a tribe of cavepeople then you have to build homes and jobs for them an army and the tribe progresses over time and you can cause these disasters to happen to them to see how they adapt like volcanoes earthquakes famine or kill them off and start over sometimes they kill themselves by their own technology the whole time playing like your God watching with an over head view them living on the earth

I forgot what system it was for but you play as this guy and you have a dog. Y'all go back to prehistoric times or something. But when you kill the dinosaurs and other monsters you get items that can be used to create diff weapons. It's an old rpg game that's all I know lol.

Okay, so I am aware that I am about to sound extremely dumb, but I am on the search for a game I played when I was a child on an older Windows system. Sadly I do not remember what OS it was (as we had a few throughout the years) and I am trying to find this game that I believe came installed on the system I owned at the time.

Here we go: basically I remember that it was a winter-themed 3D platforming game, and I believe it either involved penguins or snowmen, or maybe both. I remember there were these square tile-looking things that you had to walk across, and I believe it might have been similar to pac-man in that one of your objectives was to avoid the snowmen/penguins/whatever-they-were.

I know this is a long-shot, but I've tried searching for it and it seems near impossible. Does anybody remember this game?

A game from around '05-'06 where you had a robot that you could upgrade. It was a 3d game and the robots spun around in an arena until one blew up.

Was going to say the same thing. One of the most underrated games in history:

I need help finding not a single game, but a site.
It had a few things on it, all of which are kind of blurry
1) a lightsaber game where you just bash robots by reflecting blasts back at them
2)Some kind of star/space/ship game with I think 4 colored factions
3) a fantasy medieval mix kind of thing where you had to buy units, and queue them in to be spawned and then you control them (I think you control them), and there were moves to, and the point was to capture the enemies flag.
What site was this? It was privately run if I remember right, and I just can't think of it's name.

I'm curious if anyone knows this game that I remember playing a long time ago.

Key characteristics that I remember:
* First: here is what I think it kind of looked like: http://imgur.com/ccBntJj Obviously my drawing isn't quite as good in terms of neatness/colors. But it gives a basic picture.

* 2d space/arcade game

* You play as a little colored triangle, looks sort of like this: http://imgur.com/zXqThVu

* And I think there were some particle effects for the ships propulsion near the indented area of the triangle. You were generally very basic colors like red, blue, green, etc.

* Your little triangle ship could rotate left/right and you could propel the ship in the direction you were facing. And there were a bunch of different weapons/powerups you could get

* There was gravity and associated physics in the game. So if you applied a little bit of jet, you'd drift up and then gravity would slow you down and pull you back down. So you might fly right through a cave system and have so much inertia that you smack into a wall if you didn't rotate the other way and propel yourself away from the wall.

* Many of the maps you played on were cavy (winding little pathways)

* The terrain was destructible in a worms-like way. So you could shoot at the walls of the cave-system you were in. If you had enough patience you could shoot all the way through and come out other ends!

* There were little grey pads/rectangles that you would land your ship on to recharge or something. Maybe it was recharge fuel and ammo...I can't remember.

* While searching for the game I came across SketchFighter4000, which is sort've similar. But the graphics for this game was more like worms.

Hi guys i hope you could help me with trying to find a game i used to play in about 2004 on ps2. I don't remember much about it, but here what i definitely know i could it from Morrisons supermarket from the cheap games section. It was set on a planet similar to mars with big highways, cities and deserts. You played as a robot who could turn into a motorbike at anytime during the game. The only other thing i know is that it was 3rd person and i'm pretty sure it was open world or at least had large levels.

Any help would be much appreciated

I've been searching for the last three hours and can't come up with the answer.. I found it years ago, and wrote the game down, but i lost the sheet and now i can't remember or find what it is. It's not ClueFinders, i don't believe...

It's a PC game, made between early 90's to 2000 i believe, you got to dig up dinosaur bones, but you also got to feed the dinosaurs in a little Dinosaur Diner type thing. Feeding the carnivorous' meat, and the herbivores veggies. But there's also another part, not sure if its the same game, or part of a series... where you go underwater and you have to match a photo of a fish by clicking on the fish parts and put it together.

Is this making any sense? I can see it in my head, but i'm not sure if i'm describing it well enough or not..

If anyone remembers these at all... please let me know!!

Thank you!
I'm also looking for a game exactly as Felteppsters has describe ^^

-It's a race game, i think it's more a rally game? not sure.
-It's from the 90's, i remember i play it in DOS.
-I remember a blue car, there was a track where it was snowing.

I am very desperate with the search of a game.
1. the genre i think it is : medieval/fantasy
2. i played this game on the PC, windows XP.
3. It was in the year 2000-2005, in the time of cs 1.6
4. The name i remember is B.A.M or B.A.M.S.E
5. the vision is the same as heroes 3 ( the vision from above ).
6. The unit that i remember is and stone giant ( the same model as tiny in dota, but smaller )
7. another thing that i remember is that 4 units ( workers ) could join to form some kind of a building ( a base ).
8. In the first level i could destroy buildings and get some equipments. In the middle of the map i remember that i had some archers to defend, the part of the building destruction happens on the lower of the map.
9. The distinctive feature would be that in the second level after some time the game would crash. Every time after an step the game crashes.
10. I think that some dragons spawns in the level 2.
The graphics weren't too great.
Help me to find the title of the game

The premise is the same, but that's not the right game. Biggest difference is that game doesn't have worms-style destructible terrain.

If you can figure out what game this is you're a god.
I played this game when I was about 7 years old. So, it was around 1997 or 1998. It's a PC game and it was a 3d side view platformer. There was no character development that I can recall. You just played the game and made your way through the levels. The object of the game, if I remember correctly, was to make it to the top of each level, and you did so by jumping on trampolines. The trampolines were the main way of getting through the levels and each consecutive jump made the character go higher and higher. The character you played as was able to jump pretty good and made use of the "double jump." The levels were populated by enemies. They were really weird creatures that I've never seen in any other game. I think you had to jump on top of your enemies to kill them. This is all I remember about the game because it's been so long. Also when the character jumped it sounded like someone was strumming a stretched rubber band.
I just asked my dad about it because he was the one that bought it for me and installed it. He said it was part of a game pack. Almost like an indie bundle. So it may be impossible to locate now.

Hi!
There was a very old pc game where you were some kind of dot or little thing and just moved along the edges of the screen, and you would like "eat" little parts of the screen by moving inside it and then returning to the edge, engulfing some things or bugs that were inside that space, making the screen smaller each time you moved inside it. But you also had to avoid enclosing other things, I think they were little bouncing balls.. it was a really long time ago, around 1993 maybe, so I cant remember much more. You won the level when you made the screen very small and all the balls were inside that small space that was left. I also remember it had something to do with a spider...probably.. Sorry for the vagueness!! But i´d really like to play that game again! Does anyone remember??
