It must have been fifteen years ago at least. It was a 3D game (with very cartoonish graphics) where you could wander around this city and rob buildings. Very puzzle-based, with guards that followed a prescribed path. If I remember correctly, you'd record your moves, then play it forward and see if your plan worked. Anyone remember this one? It's been bugging the hell out of me and I don't remember quite enough to pin down the name. The game was for the PC.
I would be happy if someone recognize game but as me can't remember name to write something more about it... also if u need some more info. please ask me, i don't know what more to say about it, but if you ask question maybe i remember something new that would help us find out :)

I would really like to find this game, i'm looking for it more than 2 years now :(... thanks for any future help
Suggestions and Questions:

Q:

Did you play as a squad or a single robber?
Heist came to mind for the timeframe:

A:

It's not Heist :(


Q:

Was it 1st person or 3rd person? What did your character look like?

A:

It was 3rd person and you played as single robber, also it was cartoonish... A character remind me to Gru from "Despicabble me" movie, but maybe little thiner than Gru.

cant remember what game this was, BUT HAVE BEEN TRYING TO FIGURE IT OUT FOR A WHILE
I think it was back in the 90s, when I had my Windows 98 computer, I used to have a game that looked like Space Invaders, but it wasn't space invaders. It was some 3D Space Shooter, where you had to kill everything in the screen, collecting power ups, etc. Graphics were just amazing back then, and each level had a boss. Each level was orientated to a planet of our system.


Thank you to anyone who can help

Late C64 or early pc game. Cira 1986-89...

- something about scrolls
- monks
- Buddhist statue
- butter or something
- borders falling and you had to avoid them... I always got killed

Does that conjure any game titles? I just am driving myself crazy because I can't recall this game!

Hello I'm new here hoping SOMEONE can help me find this game. It was a PlayStation one game and you would control around 3ish types of robots that would each have their own benefits, one was a two legged robot and another one was almost like a vehicle type of robot, meaning you drove it around, and I remember that you would face the same kind of robots in an "arena* type setting, I remember a desert type of environment and you could switch between the robots on a whim and when you did, the one you did not control would just sit there until you controlled it again. You could play two player which then the second player would control one of these robots that the first player wasn't playing as and I distinctly remember two kinds, there may have been more, and as I described above one was a two legged walking machine and the other you would drive around (which was so much fun), and I don't remember if they had weapons although I imagine they would. There was an element of puzzle to it I think as well.

I have been searching for the name of this game for YEARS, if SOMEONE could tell me what it is I would be forever grateful!

Thanks!
Can anyone please help me with this one, it's a tough one I know. Let me know if you need more info, I'll try to remember some more stuff.

Anyone remember a game called Legend Of Legaia?
Haha totally! This is still one of my top 3 favourite games of all time! Such an awesome IP. Wish they would remake it. With the ra-seru's and genesis trees!

Alright, so, there was this kind of mild-puzzle/adventure game. I think I played it on Windows 95/98, but it's entirely possible it was a DOS game or that my memory is bad and I actually played it on Windows 3.11. I don't think I ever got past the first few levels but I loved it. Basically, there was a fixed camera, 2D, colored. Afair, you controlled some little figures and you had to make them do something in the correct order to pass through the level. One of those levels (one of the first ones) featured a big room that belonged to a wizard or something. The figures you controlled were much smaller (midgets? dwarfs? But really small, not like Tolkien dwarfs. More like an elbowlength-sized perhaos). I am not sure inhowfar you could actually control them. Oh and I think one level (after the wizard's room?) was kinda darkish and had some kind of monster in it and when it got to your character (or any of many?) the character got a totally shocked expression on his face and it was game over. And I think each "level" consisted basically of one such room, so everything you needed was right in front of you. And I think the first level was outside a house (the wizard's?) with a tree possibly and grass and someone or something was possibly lurking out behind a tree every now and then? It might also have been a witch btw., dunno.

I have one on my mind, when I was a kid we had this game where I think you played as an animal,
something like hello kitty I think and you were standing up and you had a penguin friend who you could play as as well they had different powers and stuff.
You had to fight bosses after finishing the level it was very classic I remember very particularly you had to fight a boss in an icy place in a shopping mall.
I dont know if this makes sense but I couldnt find it anywhere I played it around 2005 or 2007 so I think around that time it should have come out.
Its really not that old but you guys can remember games from the 90s so I hope you can help, you can message for details or questions thank you.
It was on pc also

Oh, one more. A kind of strategy game, but not particularly challenging, where you have a few types of soldiers and cows. And the cows eat grass and produce milk and the milk is your resource for building practically anything (like soldiers). And you can send off your soldiers to discover territory and kill other tribes' soldiers. DOS or something like that. Colored.

And this one I have been trying to find for years but no luck.

It was for Xbox, I think, for the original one. I only had a demo of it. It was a 3d third person ninja game. In this level, you had to kill a few enemies and eventually the boss. The special thing was that you could sneak up to enemies and do a little tricky move, which was basically to be so close that they notice you, but the moment they "notice" you, you have a very small timeframe to make a finishing move and if you do this, there is a little screen effect (not sure about this) and some kind of super-ability bar loads up and if you do this on almost every enemy in the level, you can then use it to finish off the end enemy in the game, which I don't remember too well, but the super-ability needed a particular combo on the controller and I think some Japanese/Korean/whatever symbols flashed over the screen when you used it. The end-enemy (remember, it was a demo) was perhaps some old geezer, I am not sure. And he was in some kind of dojo that you got into eventually. And the whole setting was rather darkish. Almost a bit of a stealth game perhaps.

Might have been around 2000 or so.

So, I remember a really fun game.

I think you played as a penguin (definitely an animal) that tried to kill another penguin and you had all these different guns to kill other enemies. There were different levels and you had to do small puzzles to progress, I think. The game definitly was a Side-Scroller
and had multiple enemies like Helicopters, rocket penguins and probably more. I don't remember anything else, I think that the name was basically a normal word but turned around (so take for example the word "Apocalypse" and make it "Acopalypse", that's kinda how it was).

I'm not even sure about the year anymore, but the graphics didn't look VERY old.

Oh, and there definitely was a sequel to that. The first game I'm not sure had co op, but the second one has Co op, where one plays the original protagonist and the other the old antagonist, who turned good though.

Hello I am trying to remember an old action/rpg game that I played a long time ago. I believe it had an isometric or top-down view where you controlled a single guy who could equip and use fire themed skills (at least in the first levels) like fireball etc. I remember later on in the chapters you encounter a brother-like figure (called Abel?) who kills soldiers with his lightning theme powers as part of a cutscene and maybe you are after him. I believe we were augmented soldiers of some sort. Gameplay was like moving around in maps with enemies to kill with your powers and traps to evade etc. Sorry not very descriptive I guess.
I finally found it! The game is called Sanity. Good old times.

There was this adventure type game, I believe it was ps1, if not ps2, that was very futuristic where you could go on missions through multiple climate areas, and it felt like a very fun game to play. There was a home area where you could buy things with all the items you had, and even buy health and bullets (I think)
I was on the third level of things ;w; (It was a very sandy color, basically every time you entered a room the doors would shut and you'd have to kill the monsters, almost like Binding Of Isaac but not 8-bit)
There were also minigames you could play like soccer or with go carts.
Your character could have either melee or guns, depending on your gameplay type. They wore full body suits.

Hey. I used to play this game in like 2006 on some kind of console that was set in a dark dungeon-ish area. You could choose between a female or a male and the characters had armor. I think you could choose your weapon too. I think you would fight large spider creatures. You could collect stuff that could revive you. Maybe it was called health? And when you fought the creatures the game made hacking noises. Thanks!

I've got one, I can recall an early 2000s game that resembled a military/tactical shooter/squad rpg (?)

-fully 3D world, can't recall it was first or third-person
-there were four squad members, I think all were individually controllable characters
-the squad interface reminded me of Jagged Alliance 2
-at one point, you had to attack a military base (?)
-once saw a webm of it posted on 4chan, your controlled squad member was shooting past a car and grenades were thrown

Cheers!
'Conflict: Desert Storm' or 'Conflict: Global Terror' perhaps?

Potentially one of the 'Tenchu' series? Their games are all set around 16th Century Feudal Japan, sounds pretty similar to what you're describing.

Hah. that's it. Tenchu: Return from Darkness. Thanks. Sucks that it's only available for Xbox...

I really want to reconnect with this game I played when I was 10 or so. It was an online computer game, the kind that you find on some website promising entertainment for children. It features a very beautiful South American woman. In the game you would manage her daily life, earning money that you could spend on her own health and upkeep(there were monitors for how healthy she was) choosing if she went to workout at the gym or what she would eat and there were plot quests of sorts where you would help out her various family members like her nieces and nephews and her mother and siblings. I really hope I can find this game I've been searching for hours trying all sorts of key word combinations. I'm not 100% sure but I think the character's name was Maria or Rosa. If anyone knows anything I would really appreciate it.

Tenchu-Z for the 360 was a great one, too. Never played the one you speak of, though I've heard the rest of the Tenchu series is all good!
