Hi everybody!
I remember the one fantastic old game. I'm not sure if it was for PS or Nintendo or whatever... I remember just a few things.

1. It was called Professor and something else - not sure.
2. Player was controlling a red bouncy ball which can be transformed into a black heavy ball (to break through glass for example) or a cloud.
3. You drove the ball through the house or garden full of barriers and threats (that's what I remember) but it's possible thah there was a lot of different levels.
4. You heard "Hallelujah" (by Handel) in the end of each level.

Could you please help me to find out what game it was? Thanks!

Hello!

I remember a game that I can't remember the name of.. or even the gameplay... (I was very young.)
The game is from 1990s and had different "bad ending" CG animations when you died to various enemies and it was probably a sci-fi(shooter?) game.

The only thing I can remember from the game is a single CG animated death scene that happens every time you die to a slime.

The animation starts with a type of slime tumbling toward you(a soldier) while looking almost like a green slinky toy.
When it gets close enough, it stretches itself tall and wide enough to then fall over and completely cover the soldier(you) and instantly eats off any organic material, only leaving the weapon behind and then you get the "game over" text.


I know this is VERY little to go by, I simply have the game stuck in my head for some reason and figured that a simple post couldn't hurt.

Hey Everyone!

There was this old PC game that I used to play back in the 90's. I feel like it came on a CD with many other games loaded on to it as well, but this one was a 2d pixelated game played in 3rd person, reminiscent of an Rpg/dungeon game.
If I remember correctly, you started out in a village and worked your way through these dungeons and to eventually fight these hairy creature bosses. But to "fight" you literally just pressed the keyboard in the direction of the enemy. You could also shoot these green/blue and/or red fireballs to help damage them and you could pick up/dump your findings in this iconic looking gold pile. There was always this chance to find new enchanted/cursed armor but there was like no way of knowing it was cursed and trying new armor became the new bane of my existence.
I know this is a huge shot in the dark with a limited description but if anyone has any ideas on what this might be just let me know.
Thanks!

Its a PC game, there are 4 main characters. A rifleman (the leader), a sniper, a machine gunner and a medic. At any given point you could change the character you play with using the keys 1,2,3,4. This game was 3D.

The first mission was you and your 'squad' driving a machine gun jeep into a large camp, killing 2 guards at the gate, you get out of the truck and there was an enemy where you came from if you didn't kill him before. This mission was set during the night. To go forward you had to kill everyone in the camp, then move behind a gate, then theres a large building where you need to blow up a tank.

That is all i remember, but i need the name of the game. This game was made in around 2005/2006/2007

Thanks.

This one isn't exactly a game as much as an old-school game maker. It came on a floppy disk, I seem to recall it having a very generic title like "Game Maker Studio" or something along those lines. It was DOS based and you could make adventure style point-and-click games, it came with a demo game that showed off the capabilities of the engine that was pirate-themed.

Just curious if anyone is familiar with the title of it?
I finally found the old Floppy Disk for this, it was called Game Builder Lite, a shareware adventure game maker by MVP Software

It's actually been doing my head in looking for this game..
All I remember is a side scrolling game, in one of the earlier missions you press UP on the controller and you can dive into a bush to avoid the spot/search light that is roaming around.
Not sure if NES or Atari, but pretty sure it was a NES game.

Can't remember if it was a spy game, but the only image I have in my head.

I just woke up from a dream which included a message written in a font from this old children's video game that I remember playing a lot of in the 90s. I can only remember one element of it where when you clicked the left frame from the main menu it took you to a farm where you grew and harvested various plants like cucumbers, corn, beans, and tomatoes and I think you took them to market after you were done harvesting and you could re-sew and repeat. The font used is kind of whacky and whimsical with varying letter sizes and odd lines and circles and swirls, bonus points if you can point me to the font cause not being able to find it is really what's bothering me for some reason.

I think it might be the game refered to in this reddit thread: https://www.reddit.com/r/AskGames/comments/3czgmz/obscure_kids_farming_game_from_mid90s_anyone_know/

Edit. I think I found it. It's called Forever Growing Garden. Still no luck on the font name though.

hello everyone.
so there is this game i kept playing on PC, its an RPG type of game, you start out a s swordman walking in a forest then you find yourself in a village fighting trolls-like creature, you can see a dragon in the background burning that village. as you proceed in the game you get to find some characters which happen to be playable, first one is a mage and the second one is an assasin, you get to play as all three of them later in the game, menaing you can switch between characters. i still remember some of the bosses in the game. a giant spider, a red demon-like character which atually appears earlier in the game, that dragon i mentioned at the begining, and some lady who weilds a greatsword that appears to be in a conflict with that demon guy. i know it sound stupid but its kinda fun lol.

Hello everybody. I just found this wonderful post and wanted to give it a try.
I have four games in mind that I couldn't find anywere, no matter how much I searched, and that's because my memories are very, very blurry. So I hope I can find some answers here. Thank you in advance!

1)A strange C64 game, something like a graphic adventure, where you could use different characters (everyone with different colours and builds, as far as I remember). It was isometric, there were a lot of rooms, and you could walk all over the rooms and change rooms by reaching doors. So the world didn't move; you moved. Can't remember anything else!

2)Another strange C64 game where there were walls of geometric constructions with geckos (I remember them being pink or green) or other things crawling up and down. You had to solve the puzzle by reaching with those geckos some corners or edges where there were something to reach or to pick up. I think you needed to do that in a fixed time. And after that you could change level.

3)A 3D PC game, approximately 1998-2004, where you were some kind of knight in shining armor. It was a third-person adventure game (rpg? I don't know), and the character was pretty big in the screen. I remember playing the demo: you needed to go up a cliff, the atmosphere was really beautiful (perhaps a sunset, or the armor was golden), there was the ocean on your left and rocks on your right, and you started using a bow (or you found a bow soon in the game). After the cliff there were houses, or a well, can't remember.

4)Another 3D PC game (approximately 2002-2006), an RPG where you were a big guy, perhaps a berserker, starting with very crude equipement, such as rags or an animal skin, and a big sword or something of the sort. I remember crystals, a crystal cave, a lot of monsters to defeat. Nothing else. The entrance to the cave was on the north. It was another demo.

Some hints?
Thank you :)

EDIT: I found the first one. "Head over Heels". No luck for the others...
EDIT: I found the third one too. "Asghan: The Dragon Slayer". But what I'm most interested in is the fourth one :(.

This game is from the 90's. I remember playing it alongside another game called Cyberia and it came out in 94. So it must have been around that year.
Some things I remember from the game are:
- The main character is a boy
- First level was some jungle level and you had to jump onto a root of a tree and then jump over some water, if you failed something would come up from the water and eat you whole.
- There was some level where you had to climb some green grassy wall, and you had to click with your mouse onto the wall and just guess where was safe to click, if you failed then the player would fall and you had to try all over again.
- Some level was sort of like hell, seemed very hot and I think I remember lava and dark rocks, and you had to get some boulders
- One level had crystals, where you had to align the correct crystals to move forward.

That's pretty much all I remember, I just HAVE to know the name of this game.

I completely forget the name of the website, but I remember playing some fairly unique puzzle games on a website a long time ago. The basic premise was that you started with nothing on the field, and had an assortment of items to select from. As you chose an item, it was added to the field and would have an effect, and then you would chose another item. The ultimate goal was to trial-and-error to figure out what order items needed to be selected to get the best outcome. He also had a few other types of games on his page (including a fun whack-a-mole-type game that used the Numpad).

Anyone happen to know which website I'm talking about? Is it still around? Has he created any new puzzles in the years since I've been there last?

Hello Everyone , I have 2 pc games from the 90's I am trying to remember.

1) This is a 3rd person action/adventure. The only points i recollect are that you are a knight of some sort ( kind of like the knights Templar). Might be wrong but i remember the character wearing armor and a white cape. The main point of the game was that you are infected or cursed and it is causing your character to slowly turn into a beast/monster. Taking damage also causes you to turn into this beast/monster.

2) don't remember much about this one apart from that its an adventure game. The only defining feature i seem to remember is that in the top left corner of the screen , you had this transparent cauldron into which you could drop items from your inventory and it would make the liquid in the cauldron change color. The cauldron also had a chain which you could pull and would cause the contents to be flushed away and be lost forever. I think the main character was female.

Any help would be appreciated
