I remember a game where you were led by a nerdy guy with ponytail and annoying voice. It was some sort of science lab setting. and he would say random things and his computer made stereotypical booping noises. From there you could build cars and trucks (planes? maybe not) by dragging parts and then going and testing them out in the field. It was my brothers game but it came off a disk and was from the early 2000's. It would be amazing if someone knew!

Alright, Ive searched for a week with everything I know so im turning to you guys! ;) Ive searched this forum too and havent found it, so maybe this is a long shot.

There was a game I played in the early 90s.. Era of 7th guest type - on rails - FMV game. You were a space soldier, landed or crashed on a planet for some reason. I remember him always in a black space suit, and black helmet that looked like a Bike helmet. It was a sort of 3rd person shooter game (as far as i remember) that you were in these alien tunnels and had to shoot them before they hit you. You would progress by picking what tunnel you wanted to go down when you had a choice (left/right) and you would eventualy make it to some boss type thing.

The game was notably "Beige" in color.. and i remember the metal catwalk sounds when you walked down the hallways. I remember the intro "blowing my mind" back in the day.. but i never played it too far into the game as it used to scare the bananas out of me ;)

I being a bit OCD, trying to find this game has become kind of an obsession and i would be able to sleep at night if anyone remembered what this title was called! I dont think it was a Hugely popular title.. i just remember seeing it at some computer show and my Dad buying it for me when i was a kid!


Thank you in advance!

Hi guys,
i remember playing a game where i am something like a human or even a human in something like forest and i thing that there were somethings on the earth like portals/teleports. I played it on my PS1 and i think that it was a scary game / survival and the picture on the disk was something greenish. Please if you remind that game tell it to me. I would like to play it again cause i remember i got only to the 1st teleport that i was kinda scared and was just turning off the console :D.

Ok, I been searching for days with no luck fnding a match so I thought I'd try here.

This is a game from the 90's possibly very early 00's I was a kid playing this back then. It was a pc game (since xbox dint exist then) I can only remember pieces what I do remember is

It wasn't 2d platform, it was looking down at character from a diagonal angle
it was sci fi genre type. Almost alien planet, I remember lots of plants all over the place
I remember that occasional while walking around the area you had platform tile crossings, where you have to work out a pattern to cross, it could be colour or shape, but get it wrong and these plant roots whack you.)

I also remember a certain level, which I don't think I enjoyed as a kid. There were creatures, almost mud men, who would wander around the level, if they see you they slowly chase you, you cant kill them I remember that why you had to run. You can find temp things to disguise yourself as one to run past safely and I think you were after bits of pipe or bits of a machine. There were also safe spots where they couldn't get you.

If you want human-like character, portals and greenish disk try:

All right, this one's gonna be tough. But I'd appreciate any help, I even dug through *numerous* lists of 90's games with no result, prpbably the game was real under the radar thing.

So, the facts I remember about the game are real few:

It's early 90-s cyberpunk-themed isometric sprite-based action-RPG or maybe just action with a female protagonist, I vaguely remember it involved lots of mouse usage so no WASD or arrows movements AFAIR. All green and black themed of course.
Have you tried?

Hell: A Cyberpunk Thriller (1994)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3rKZFN0qiuI

is not strictly what you say because isn't isometric but it has a dual male/female character selection .

Hey guys,
i have been searching for this one specific game. i can't really remember it well but i will try to explain it the best i can.

you are a woman with a sword (I think) and you start off in a field, next to you is a big yellow windmill house i think, or it a semi-buried wooden zepplin looking house. i think that when you enter this thing, there is an old man. there is a dungeon in front of you,not very far away. when you go in there, there are big monsters (maybe with Swords) and bats (not too sure). I don't know anymore then that, but i am hoping that you people will help :) thank you

Thanks man, appreciate it but it's not this one, the game I refered to doesn't have any 3D imagery, it was purely sprites and stylized too.

I search in many sites but i cant find it out. Hope you guys can do it.
This game is very similar to Blood Bowl: sport, bloody, players wear armors, but there're many differenences:
- It's a turn-based game.
- The goal is kill all opponents, you use keyboard to control your players damage opponent's players by throwing a ball. If a player take many hits, his armor will broken. I remember AI killed my players with single hit, a headshot..
- You can move your players, just throw a ball to kill.
That what i remember...
Can anyone..? :(

hey guys i'm hoping that someone can help me out. i have tried to exhaustion to find a 90's game.
all i remember is that it was manufactured by a company called edmark and it was a computer game where you would build 2d and 3d boxes and shapes having to use the mouse to construct it together I think it had to do with geometry, not sure though.
ps. i have looked everywhere including edmark's website and still did not find the game I was looking for
I know its an edmark game because I remember the intro which was 3 kids in a blue box followed by a yellow purplish shooting star, which was edmarks logo in the 90's

Well your entire description sounds like Dark Cloud to me,except the being a woman part. Sounds like the beginning of the game.
