Hey guys.


I remember playing a 2D game where you would play as a dude who looked like a cop. The characters were all curvy (looked like they were drawn using elipses) & had no face details (eyes, mouth, nose, etc.), and I remember that the dude which you played as wore blue/purplish clothes. You had to fight enemy soldiers, and one of your attacks was something which would actually convert enemy soldiers into your side, which would change their colors to the same ones as yours. They would then start following you around and shoot stuff for you.

Hope somebody can give me a clue about this game. Thanks.

I'm looking for a game i played in my childhood (2004-2006?)
It was an arcade racing game for the PC, there were somewhat around 5 playable characters, one of them being male with an orange car, and one female with a pink car. There were some maps to choose from, one of them las Vegas where you had to drive through some kind of a casino or flashy shopping mall. The game brings back many memories and I really hope someone knows which game i am looking for.
Thx for help,
Woulve
(it's not NFS:Underground 2)
might be

London Racer 2 (2002)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ReepSmoF3C4

despite the name, it has a map in Las Vegas too. Or try

London Racer - World Challenge (2003)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KDUfFq7wfu8

with more cities.
These are unfortunately not the game i am looking for :/ But thank you a lot for the answer :)
Any1 else got an idea what the game i am looking for could be?
but what went wrong with those games? your game strongly suggest me some of the Davilex games like the ones I said, but there are quite a few and some of them are in German..check out this one for example

Autobahn Raser IV (2002)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U9bhmna9ZHg

German game though..If wasn't, check out all of these https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Davilex_Games

Hello guys!
I played this game in late 90's-early 2000's on a PC - though it was probably much older than that. It was a first-person game with graphics that looked like a slightly souped up version of Wolfenstein 3D's. The protagonist was a plane crash survivor who woke up on a sandy beach on an island, surrounded by a crashed plane debris. It was night, with a bright moon shining. You could walk up and down the beach which was basically a wide corridor with sea on side and a treeline on the other (the treeline was effectively a solid wall painted to look like trees - a common technology of the era).
I didn't get much further as I didn't know much English at the moment and couldn't figure out what I was supposed to do next. I did find out though that quitting the game would trigger an animated cutscene of the protagonist putting a shotgun barrel against his chin and blowing his brains out, gorily. That scene would be followed by a picture of a cackling mad scientist of some sort - probably the main villain.

Played a game on the pc which was an online game set in the future. The game had multiple game modes on different servers. I played it around 10 years ago, but cannot for the life of me think of the name.

One mode set the scene of marines on a spaceship trying to retrieve an Object (briefcase) and returning it to Base, however there are aliens trying to stop them.
There were different classes to chose from in the marines such as a standard trooper, a medic, a sergeant, a heavy trooper (maybe). As far as I'm aware only the sergeant could pick up the objective.
They could shoot through the vent entrances or throw grenades in to kill the aliens.

The aliens consisted of a small Spider like alien that was very quick, low hp, quick claw damage.
The next two aliens looked like a raptor which had two different colourisations, quick, medium hp, claw attacks, and a small acid spit attack.
The last two aliens were
very big in a deep blue and a red colour, high hp, with slow claw attacks, but a big acid spit attack.
The aliens could move through vents for easy access and you could pick off marines who were alone.

Another mode was one in space where you piloted a spaceship and if you destroyed an enemy then you could retrieve and use their parts for yourself.

I know I played this game on PC around the time I played Age of Empires so probably came out between 1998-2002. It was a fantasy game and your turn consisted of walking a pre-determined amount of steps (it sounded just like walking when you clicked) and then you could do whatever. It had magic and I think you fought creatures if you came across them in your steps. There were elves and mages (which I think had their own tree or tower) and I don't remember what the point was anymore but here's hoping someone played it and can remember!

I'd start with having a look at the "Heroes of Might and Magic" series.

I have another request for a lost game...
The game was a Mame 32 game. It was a platformer game like super mario. You were some kind of prehistoric warrior with a weapon like a bladed jo-jo. You fought enemies like goblins and pterodactyls and moved through various landscapes. I remember moving on a wooden bridge overlooking a vast plain with a waterfall. The game had many levels, i never quite finished it...
Hmm... the yo-yo thing reminds me of Rygar [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FK_OQIgIPqw].


Dude, that's the game lol....Man u Time Wizards or what!!!

and another game I played in my early 90s that I cannot remember.

This one is a Graphic adventure, style of Monkey Island 1. Very simple graphics, it is NOT in the top 25-100 of these games in Google.

What I remember, is that I was a writer. It was suppossed to be scary and that the beginning of the game you are inside a house.

Any ideas?



With a writer protagonist, my first guess would be Gabriel Knight: Sins of the Fathers.

There are these two games i used to play on the PS2. The first game was a 2D 3rd person fighting game and you would play as like a cyborg man i think and you would complete the levels and kill these flying drones and the first level would be on a flying ship maybe?

and the second game is also a 2D 3rd person game except you play as a blue alien and when you would die blue stuff would pour from your body i think maybe? that's really all i remember from that game and just now i thought for some reason it was called A-Z or something like that.

but anyway if anyone can research or remember or knows the names I would really appreciate that, cheers!!! ;)

There's this one game I remember playing a few years ago on my PC but I cannot remember what it's called.

It's a puzzle, walking-sim type game. (I can't remember exactly what happens but this is the rough idea) It starts off with you walking up to a magical school of some sorts and I think you get a letter from your friend telling out about the place. You walk up to the main door but it's locked so you have to solve a puzzle to open it. Once you get inside you hear noises but nobody is about. You go towards the noises and you find a talking animal who becomes your friend for the rest of the game. Through the game you solve puzzles and find out where everyone has dissapeared to and what happened to them. You also get like flashbacks that tell the story kinda.

Any help is much apreciated! I only recently remembered about it and was wanting to play it again but I can't seem to find my copy of it anywhere...

alright that ps2 game I was trying to remember the name of was called Eternal Ring.

The 1st game However still eludes my memory. I remember it being a cartoonish style board/turnbased game for cd-i pc. probably was released late 90's or early 00's . sort of lemmings esque gameplay mechanics. One of the levels was a cake that you played on top of. There were also multiple levels height-wise so it wasnt exactly like a chess board. It seemed mostly like a fire emblem type game for kids mostly. I know ill probably never find this game but its been bugging me for the last 5 years. guessing would even be appreciated since cd-I games are so hard to hunt down.

Hello, I am looking for a beloved game I used to play, maybe 4+ years ago. It was a browser based game.

From what I can remember, the game was looking down onto a map, with a few large cities and tonnes of towns, some in the desert, forest areas, snowy areas and possibly a few more. The game started by choosing a 'family'(?) For example, a male with gold armor and lives in the plains, or ninjas whose main city is based on a small island in the ocean area in the middle of the map. After choosing, the player can battle around the map, conquering towns and cities to recruit their troops (3 lines of offense, and a infinite line of spares) The players can also purchase horses from the cities and weapons. The gameplay is like playing a tower defense game, that type of movement and visual creation. It wasn't multiplayer. Hope this helps and I hope someone can help me find the name of this game. If I remember anything else, I will edit as soon as.
