Old Games you remember playing but can't remember the name of.

[SirDanforth]

I've been trying to find the name of an old early 90's(?) pc game for over a year now. One of those gems that were terrible, you never made progress in, but you always tried to play it.

All I can really remember about it is you started on a space station where you could travel to different rooms and interact with things. There might have been a few people you could talk to with that horrible 90's face animation. There was a tube of food paste you could eat endlessly that made a really disgusting chewing noise. The main part of the game was travelling down to the planet where you fought robots or some such. I can't remember much else, except I think the box art had giant spider looking things with bland round bodies. It might have been one of those cheapo games you'd find at K-Mart.

Hi, recently i was thinking about a game I used to play as alittle kid, i had it on my old pc that didnt even have use mouse at the time. In the game you played as a guy escaping from mansion full of zombies, later on it was werewolves and vampires in caves. I never finished it so i would like to do so now. it was 2D, colorless and you couldnt fight back, just avoid and run. if it will be any help, that pc didnt have desktop like nwe have but some kind of menu to navigate through programs and just one button to turn on ond off. if anyone knows what im talking about please let me know.

Hey guys, hoping you can help. Looking for a game for a friend with the following details:

Browser-Based
Literally just a map of rectangles when you start. Zero story.
You start with one square
If someone takes that square, you lose.
Real Time
Multiplayer
There were sometimes impassible walls, mainly only on the big two week maps
You also had this supply route buff thing you could get it would strengthen the troops in existing territories
If you had territories that didn't connect to the main one, they could die off.
There were mountain areas in the bigger maps. They were really hard to dig through. But there were sometimes like diamonds or something you could get out of them that you could buy buffs with.
I've been trying to look around for a bit with no luck. Any chance someone here knows?

I think we're looking for the same game.

Sounds a bit like Heart of Darkness, except there you can only jump next to where the ship landed and not back on it.

I remember Heart of Darkness quite well, this game is older I believe, or at least it looks much older in graphical style

Hi, I hope someone can help me. This is back from the 90's. There used to be Demo CD's which sometimes had game demos and sometimes little videos of games. Well, there is this one game that I was always curious about but never got to play and never found to buy. It's a graphic adventure with futuristic scifi looks. In the video you could see some spaceships and some characters walking around. The thing that, I hope can recall someone of which game I'm talking about is that there seemed to be a mix of humanoid animals amongst the characters. I think there was this like lion headed character with like a spacesuit walking on the surface of the planet. I don't know, if anyone has any idea of what I'm takling about I would really apreciate some help! Thanks!

Hello! I used to play in CD-ROMs magazines in ~2000-2004. I used to like to play a game from a Blue cd-rom from "CD-ROM's" magazine on my country. I don't know where this magazine picked the game from. I would like to know what's the name of the game.

♦It was like 2 toons in versus mode, 1 for each player, one fully blue, and the other fully red color.
♦ The main objective is to drop/ push the other player out of the scenario.
♦ There are a ground platform, and floating platforms too.
♦ The platforms are fixed. And we can jump on them.
♦ Sometimes some Power Ups appear in the stage, so the player can get it to help him to defeat the other player.
♦ It's a 2D game and it was a Demo version.
♦ The Background is black i think, and the platforms are dark blue or gray probably. There are a lot of Blue and Black, (gray too, maybe) on the game.
♦ The players look like some kind of soldier fully colored in red, or blue. Helmets and armor.

I will thank you so much if you know it and could answer me!

BUMP!

a game i used to play on sega mega drive i think it was
all i can remember are the very cartoony style of graphics and that one part involved being inside a ship like a cruise ship i think and it was sort of filling up with water and you had to get out in time or something, rented from blockbusters way back in the day, its annoying that i cannot remember more, the only other thing i can remember was it definitely being a family friendly game, mother dear was very strict on what games i was allowed to play way back when

Hello all!

So i'm looking for a game I played on my PS2 back in the day. It was on a old Playstation demo disc with lots of random demos. It was a beat em up type game based in china (I Think) And it had a very fun combat style and I enjoyed it a lot.

I'd really appreciate someones help on finding this game!

Hello everyone, I hope someone can help me out with these 2 games.
The first one was probably released in the 90's. The graphic was much similar to stardew valley but of course the color was much less defined and I think it wasn't popular cuz I searched many times on google but nothing come out. It was about a guy who used to lived with his grandmother in a countryside setting with a pig farm, but one day the house catches fire and the grandmother died. The guy started on a journey and firstly he was required to obtain HP from eating apple from an apple tree besides his old house. Then he goes on an adventure, I only remembered he fight dinosaurs in caves and travel to from island to island while fighting monsters.

The second game was probably released in early 20's, the graphic was good, the characters were small and cute like miniatures, it was a fantasy battle game where we have our own city (old magical city) and we have wizards/witches/angels, and fight with other city and even have multiplayer system..

I really appreciate if someone help me

This is a long shot for sure, but I'm posting just in case there is a super high-level internet sleuth here.

I'm looking for a fan-made Pokemon game I played on a Windows PC sometime in 2000 or 2001. I might've had to boot up MSDos before playing it; I can't quite recall. It was kind of like a side-scrolling fighting game but with backgrounds made in MS Paint and sprites ripped from official art. I only remember one part very clearly: you play as Mew and have to press the spacebar to use Fissure (depicted by a fat squiggly line flying through the air) at Team Rocket's hot-air balloon (the one shaped like Meowth's head), which moves up and down to dodge your hits. The background scrolls behind you, showing a blue sky with clouds, green grass and trees, and maybe some mountains further back. There may have been another level where you play as Pikachu and run along the ground casting Thunderbolt upwards and sideways at some flighty opponent, but I'm not 100% sure.

Anyway, it was by no means a great game, or even a good game haha! I'm just trying to find it for nostalgia's sake, but it may be lost to time. Thanks in advance if you want to try taking a crack at it!

Any clue? Thanks!

Hi guys, so i joined the forums to digout two ancient flash games that i used to play all the time back in the day, but somehow i forgot the name of them and i have been wondering ever since.

The first game is basically a kid that stands behind a big person. The kid is only trying to do something harmful or harmless to the big guy inorder to go next in the line infront of a resturant or a cafeteria. the game gives the player many stuff and weapons to try out on the big guy such as nails, itching powder and such. all of those stuff and weapons usually backfire on the kid and harms him and not the big guy. the outro of the flash game had a cartoonish wooden plank with words on it.

The Second flash game is of basically a boring office day with workers just doing their work. the player can choose actions that can change the office into something fun like a disco night club, a paperplane fight and other funny things that can be turned into.

These are the two of many games that i would love to play again..

I will be extremely thankful to whoever got the strongest memory around this forum that can remember the names of those two games i mentioned.

Hi Folks! Seems to be a great thread here, and thanks for all your help in advance!

Im looking for a FPS for PC which must be around 10-15 Years old.
in the first level you get deployed with a helicopter and need to storm a base full of enemy. Its set near a traintrack which i think brings you to level 2. the base is surrounded by a fence and lots of cameras which you need to avoid. In general i recall it was better to sneak trough the level and (destroy a tank? or retrieve a hostage?) Always reminds me a bit of james bond on a secret mission.

I tried google pic search but must be a fairly unpopular game.

Again many thanks for your thoughts!

This could be "Project I.G.I: I'm going In" (2000)

I don't think it can be bought digitallynowadays, so you'd have to look for a used physical copy.

(The inferior successor ("I.G.I. 2") is available on gog though.)

Hello,

I'm having trouble finding a game that I used to play somewhere in 2004-2005.
It's sorta like the settlers games where you have to gather the resources and build your buildings to build a town eventually.
The thing is, it's played with dwarves and there is some sort of storyline with quests. I vividly remember the first level being a fight against trolls or ogres.

Oh and it's on PC

Kind regards

Hi! So there's this game I played on the 64 I think that I can't remember the name of! It starts out in a medieval type setting (castles, clothes, etc.) and a shadow overtakes the land and a boy and his dog are running from it (but I think it gets the dog) and that the opening scene. You fight spiders in a castle and there's this big dragon chained up underneath it that you have to free. I've been looking for years, hope y'all can help!

 

[ripoldgame]

Hey, i just remembered an old game i used to play like 12~13 years ago and i couldn't find it through google so i thought i would try and ask around here.

So it's a street fighting genre co-op game on pc (not to be confused with street fighter). The game has a story and i only remember how it started. So it started in a hospital where these 4 playable characters is sitting/waiting for a result from the doctor because a girl was ill.

Now these 4 playable characters is a Kung Fu guy that has spinning kick like ryu's hurricane kick (chinese/japanese not sure), a wrestler (black guy *no offense*) the guy that punches (the boyfriend of the ill-ed girl) and a lady that kicks, well all i know is she has this spinning kicks and stuffs.

So there's this bad guy (final boss) has the medicine to cure the girl's illness and they have to get it to save the girl.

that's about it for the story of the game.

It's a local Co-op game where 2 players play on full screen using the same keyboards whether using wasd or arrow keys .

Not sure when it was release but i played it in 2004~2005

 

[pochansikte]

It's an PC PvP arena battle game from probably early 90's with swords and probably axes n' shit. I think some or all characters were human-looking monsters, like goblins. You could cut off enemy limbs and pick it up and hit him with it. I remember there was a volcano/lava stage. And the blood was very pixelated. That's all I remember.

Secret of Evermore for the SNES?

 

[ImGoogy]

Hi!
I remember playing a PC game, when I was a kid. It was somewhere around 2007 and it was 2D platformer. In every level you had to "collect" monsters and put them in marked area, if you found the amount needed, you could go to another level, but if you collected all the monsters, all enemies turned into coins and if you collected them all, you could go in the bonus level. I also know that it was timed and you can collect some kind of items, that would add a bit of time. I don't remember much more, but I know that in one level at the end there was a deep pit, which you could skip by going into the secret area at the top.
I hope you can help me find this game
