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

[TechieAndroid]

As much as I hate to repeat my last post I even more so hate it when nobody will reply.

This is a challenge and I doubt anyone has the guts to even find this game but you will shock me if you can.

So I have been searching for months trying to find this game I remember playing when I was a kid, it was a math game where you played as a family of cavemen (or cave people? not sure how to write it...) but anyways you had to rescue them for some reason and it involved completing math problems to get parts to make a hot air balloon to end the game. It was 2D and the main screen showed an overview of areas to go on the map to complete the various math problems. The main screen was a top-down perspective and I remember a fire in the center that was like a clickable area or maybe it was a locked section... I can't be sure but if I remember correctly the main screen was also kinda gray colored. I estimate it to be Pre-Windows XP but it could've been XP too, so probably Windows 98, 95 or 3.1. probably 1998 or a little older to maybe 2000.

Hi guys! Hoping someone can help me with this, its a long shot xbox original game but here is everything I remember about it. Its an adventure game and you played as one person, I don't know the correct term for it but it wasn't top down view - you were viewing from just behind the character and could rotate the camera with the right joystick.

Please bear with me because I know NO game terms lol.

- You played as a guy in a blue (I think??) shirt and the graphics were pretty old school, think banjo mayahem temple days (this is the game I can find with images/graphics closest to it).

- At some point, I'm not sure if its the beginning or not, you come across an island with a crazy scientist/professor guy who has crashed a white plane into a tree. The island is small and surrounded by piranhas so you have to be fast if you get in the water. You'd swim freestyle when in water.

- There are some monkeys around generally everywhere that can cause damage to you, I think you can kill or stun them but I don't remember how.. MAYBE a slingshot type weapon?

- From what I remember the game is largely influenced by Mayan culture and there is a lot of temples and overgrown monuments.. I have tried googling so many things but mostly Temple Run and Banjo Kazooie and Minecraft come up lol.

- I think one sort of checkpoint thing is a tree you have to climb up, monkeys are everywhere and there are vines hanging in some places you have to jump and grab onto to swing higher up the tree.

- There might be some tribes in it as well? I could be confusing that with another game but some guys behind masks holding spears run out at you from behind wooden spokes at some point.

- Theres a water level where you have to swim to get to a temple and every now and then you've got to find a ruin to jump up onto before the piranhas catch up with you.


Well I guess thats about it, if you get this far then well done and TIA for your help!

P.S - I played this around the days of Blinx

Ok, this is probably gonna be a super tough one cause I played this long ago and I cant explain it thouroughly. Basically, it was a PC game i either saw on Big Fish Games or Club Pogo. It's a 3D pipe puzzle gane, and the goal was to get balls from their starting position to a goal located in the maze of pipes. Some pipes were missing, but you could place other pipes from a selection given by the gane based on the level you were on. There were a wide variety of pipes, like a launcher and a catcher, one at switches output directions every time a ball moved through it, etc. The gane scored you based on time completed (and I belive parts spared were a bonus). Now, heres where it gets all fuzzy. One of the experiments goes wrong, and now you've time traveled back in time, to I believe the desert during Egyptian times. You had to complete more and more puzzles that very much ranged in difficulty. I believe there was a way to download levels and make your own, but now the feature is shut down and no longer works. If anyone can tell me what it was, gimme a reply.

P.S. Sorry for repeat. Had to make sure people saw this.

Hey!

Im also looking for a rather old game, and couldnt find it anywhere no matter how long i looked.
I think it was back on win95 times. The game was very basic, you had a worm and it went up and down, through
a cave, the further you got the slimmer and tighter the cave became. You only pressed spacebar for up and let go
do drop. It also changed colors, the further in you got i think it became more red, and i started with easy green..
I could have sworn the name was "urworm" or "urwurm", but as i said i couldnt find it.
I would appreciate if someone knows it!

Despite the shirt being green rather than blue, this sounds a lot like Pitfall: The Lost Expedition (2004).

Don't have any clue as to what this game was called, and I can't use key words based on what I remember of the game-play to mess around with Google search for a bit in order to increase my chances of finding it (or maybe I'm just too lazy to tinker with the system for another few hours). It'd be nice if anyone here knew but, yeah. Anyways.

Basically it was for a Nintendo 64--you play as some sort of hero or possibly a prince (both?) that spawns in a castle. You can leave it, after descending lots and LOTS of stairs, and after talking to some random NPCs. From there you can roam wherever you desire (mostly). Near the castle is a village, which is home to multiple other NPCs that you can speak with.

But then you can move the player past the village into another direction, where a barrier of some sort shields the kingdom from the wilderness. You can open the barrier without a key I think, and then walk around on the other side. However, after you leave the safety of the kingdom, mobs will spawn and the day will start to turn to night. Scared me so much when I was a kid, so I hardly ever progressed because I wasn't keen on battling random monsters within unknown territory during the night, despite it being a game. Anything frightens ya at that young age. So yeah, all I know.

EDIT: when you get into a fight with any of the monsters, it's comparable to a Pokemon battle

That's probably Quest 64.

Hi everyone,

All of the details in my head are so vague (which is always the case I'm sure), and it's possible I'm mixing two games into one, but here goes:

I would have played this game around 1997/98, but could have been as early as '95 (it was at the same time that I was playing Oregon Trail, Doom, Rise of the Triad, etc.). It was a point and click game that had different activities (think creativity centre games or activity centre games). There was a main screen and you clicked different things to get into various mini-games or activities. The only image I have in my head is of a Leonardo DaVinci plane/aircraft and other similarly styled things. This main screen also seemed bright and it could have been in some kind of room or studio (like an old-style den with books and stuff).

Any help is appreciated! Thanks.

 

[Done_wright]

Ok so here's mine guys.... pretty vague. So I remember this one as an online multiplayer battle game that I played around 1998-2001 maybe. Might have been one of those you could play through the browser. Pretty sure you had to login. I remember it as one of those you fight your little character guy and buy with your points new clothing/decorations for your character to upgrade him. Turn based. Like a lot of other games. Haha. It wasn't bloody or realistic human wise. They were colorful silly characters you fought with. It might have had the same type of setup as like a Worms Armageddon but isn't that and you only had one character. Was colorful like that game. I would remember it instantly if I saw it. I'll update without info when I can think of it. Thanks for any input I've been bashing my head against the wall trying to think about this one.

 

[Done_wright]

One more for you guys...

So this one was a battle racer game for the PC. Pretty sure a browser game. It was looking from the top down. And the cars looked very small I remember. You would win races and upgrade/buy weapons and then race around blowing people up. Not twisted metal we're talking before that, and browser style I think. I remember playing with the directional keys on the keyboard. Also the camera was top down. Pretty sure when you blew someone up and you went across them, your tires would like smear "blood" on the track. Thanks guys!

Plz halp. I'm trying to go on a nostalgia run.

Old PS2 game.
4 Teens get trapped inside another world. This was way before //:hack came out. Open world RPG,
fantasy type. Ik it was 2 boys and 2 girls. Switchable characters. I can't really remember much besides one of the MC's (one of the girls) has a the typical 'tribal' outfit and she's on the front cover of the disc and in the beginning of the game, you help a village nearby by fighting off a army of trolls, one of them were giants.

I used to have it when I was younger but my brothers started playing it to the point where the disc was really scratched up and could barely work. Not only that, they kept saving over my save files. >:c I didn't really to play my games that much unless my brothers were busy or my mom made them get off and let play.

:') i hope someone will know what I'm talking about

Search something like: the chronicles of narnia

No that wasn't it. It had more of a old RPG fantasy theme but with really good graphics. Plus I played Chronicles of Narnia when I was younger so I know that it wasn't that.

Sudeki?

 

[Jeskail]

Windows PC game, played it in the early 2000's.

Isometric RPG with a Diablo II feel, you are part of a tribe of people looking for a ruler, and you are in competition with 6-8 others. Only diablo-esque game I can remember that had a political system as a core mechanic, which is why it sticks in my memory. Also remember the town and gear to have a viking-style vibe to it, With longhouses and such. Picked it up in a 5 dollar bin years ago as a kid, can remember exactly how i went through the first hour or two but can't think of the name to save my life.

Hey Guys! I've Played this Game about 10 years ago, around 2002's and 2009's

I'm Desperate Trying to find out how it was called to play it again!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
It was a:
-PC, Win xp+ Game
-Top Down 2D Shooter mix of RTS/Third person shooter (top down view)
-Graphis where Sprite based and game looked like "Endless War 1-2-3 (a browser game)" and Warlock's Gauntlet
-It was a S.player / M.player War Game had lots of mods, and you could use vehicles, buildings, it had RTS/TPS Hybrid mechanics and the gameplay was pretty much like Counter-Strike:2D or Warlock's Gauntlet and graphics looked pretty similar.

i think it was an indie game, cause i've been looking forward to find it and had no luck :s

Help me Please! I'll be pleased and gratefull! :$
