Apparently I'm a god. The game is Pandemonium. Found it on steam. Just searched "jump" and it popped up!

I am looking for a 90s game that was basically a Diablo ripoff. A top down hacknslash with inventory/potions/all the Diablo elements. I remember it having a sequel and a quite long title. It's middle-to-late 90s and it's a little lighter in tone. You could get purple armor if you were high enough level. were multiple merchants in the towns too.

Hi, I am looking for an old logic game. There was a wall in the jungle and a machine, which throws balls of clay to the wall. But you can color the clay by 1 of (4)5 colors and make 1 of 4(5)signs (tringle, square,..) to the ball. This action will affect the place where the ball hit the wall. There are signs (crosses?) on the wall, that you must hit, so you have to find out a system,how color and sign on the ball affect the place of landing.
Thank for any idea.

Please please help, I'm looking for a game which I think we got free when buying our computer it was late 90's early 2000's, I remember it starting off in a fishing village, and in the village were speakers with like a dictator speaking through them, the aim of the game was to stop the Voice coming through the speakers, I can remember u having to do different quests to get there, and you had a little friend think it was a little dragon in a disc, I remember one quest was being in hell you had to dial a code on a phone to get across, each quest u had to find objects to get over to the next quest, I remember the voice of the helper, he sounded like nemo's dad from finding nemo sounds silly but everytime I hear the voice it reminds me of the game, hope someone can help, if I remember anything else about it I will put it up, thanks again

[First Encounter Assault Recon]

I'll give it another shot, hope someone already knows dammit.


I remember it was a gameplay trailer, or more it felt like a technological demo, showing off an engine without any HUD (ammo, health etc). I think I saw it between years 2006-2007. It was a First Person Shooter set in some sandy town which felt like Egypt, Turkey or Iraq, the place where it was happening looked like this - http://bit.ly/1btublC ... you know this kind of a building structure, I also remember that there was a little sandstorm going through that place, enemies were all over the place - on roofs, on balconies, in alleys, enemies were also wearing this on head - http://bit.ly/1d1D1xO ... person which you controlled could lean over objects, was holding and shooting from a weapon which looked like FN-FAL - http://bit.ly/1cvMngh or HK21 - http://bit.ly/1hL3YaZ ... at least I think, and in a background was playing some kind of an orchestral Arabian/Turkish felt-like music. I don't even know if that game was released or cancelled, or if it was just some kind of a technological demo, and I also don't know for what platforms it was made for. Can't remember more.

Hello, I used to play this game as a kid on the Sega...I think it was Genesis (Mid ninties)...In game you played as an undead guy with 2 swords, and torn up gear, skin was gray, the hubworld had a black background...it was a side scrolling gothic game, one of the levels I remember was a swamp, you could do a spinning move in the air by jumping and attacking..anyone know it? I also think the title screen was a closeup of the main character (But I could be wrong). You could choose which way to attack by pressing up+attack, down+attack etc

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

sounds like sim city 2000 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hjiwVFG4Am4

There was a puzzle exactly like that in The Logical Journey of the Zoombinis.

You're thinking of Zork: Grand Inquisitor. Brilliant game, that one!

Don't have time to read through the whole thread but hopefully it has been posted before although undoubtedly. It may be a vague description but i'll try to be as helpful as possible. It was this game with loads of different characters and they alln had there own car, and there where different levels and I think in each level you used to have to play as one character and defeat all the other characters with your car, and you could get certain special abilities for each car/character the game was on PS2 and I remember one character which had a brown box shaped car I think and its special ability weapon was like a hoover which shredded stuff up when it sucked it in. Thats all I can remember any help would be much appreciated.

On the PS2? The first thing that comes to mind is Twisted Metal: Black.

Hello guys
There was this game I used to play years ago on my old pc. it was about monkeys but I cant find it on the internet...
It was a 2D platform game.
You would start with controlling 1 or 2 free monkeys and rescue other monkeys from wooden cages, use some sticks to open/close various stuff(gates, elevators, cages..). When you switch between monkeys, bubbles would come up from previous monkey's head then fly to the next monkey(like a special effect). If I remember right, they would be like electrified too. Pressing a key would make it scream. They could climb and move hanging on ivy. it was single or two player game with
an information panel much like age of empires2. At the end of the game you would come across with a space shuttle or rocket, saving more monkeys from a mad scientist?? Somewhat resembles this game but it was not this game:

must be available around in 90s or early 2000s.

Looking for an old PC game from around 1991, it is a turn based space colonization game. The planets were just letters on a map (ie [H]). Each players turn was hidden from the others. Players would secretly send a number of spaceships to a planet. The planets you already owned helped you build new ships. It was a blast to play... often I would send ships to attach a planet, but right before or after someone else attacked the planet.

I have been looking off and on for YEARS for this game. It is NOT VGA PLANETS or MoO. it was just a dos based text game, amazing that we had so much fun with it!
