Okay, so I need help finding the name of a game that I've been trying to remember for about a year now. I don't remember much because I haven't played it in a long time. It was probably an early 2,000s game, it was a 3D side-scrolling game about a kid vampire type character. The design was very 50's Dracula, and I think most of the levels were based on a castle. The closest I've found to it is the game Kid Dracula, but that game isn't 3D.

Any help would be appreciated, this game has been stuck in my head like a catchy song.

Update: I think I played the game on the computer.
So, I haven't had any luck in finding this game yet, but I did recover some more information on it. The game was one of the games for the Gametap service. I know it's old, and nobody probably knows much about it, but hopefully, that helps. Whatever this game was, I'm having a hard time finding anything matching it.

Hey all. I've been trying to remember a PC game from what I think is the early 2000's, and it's killing me that I can't remember.

It was a third-person, arena-style mech fighting game with the mechs resembling different mythological gods. I distinctly remember Anubis and Osiris being two of the many playable mechs. It was a 3d fighter with the camera positioned behind the player's mech. Each mech had a variety of abilities, such as launching vortex blasts and the like, but focused on melee combat. I also remember it being pretty fast-paced. The mechs themselves were more in line with having the shape of a human body, with few extensions or extra parts strapped on, so no missile launchers hanging off of shoulders. Ah, also I remember the mech I played as - Anubis. He floated and moved by using what I think are jets built into his palms. The arenas were also themed around each character, so Anubis had his own desert style arena with pyramids in the background.

Hi All,

Please help me find this game, it has several characteristics:

- 2D Strategy PC game, windows 95 / 98 era
- The game is divided in 3 (or more?) windows, the first window is for us, the second window is computer (enemy), the third I believe is where the announcer is (a girl?)
- We can build buildings in our window: missile, anti-missile, green circle turret, nuclear launcher (3x3 space occupied), etc..
- We can send missile and robot (transported by plane) from our window to enemy window, with drag and drop movement
- AI can also attack us the same way
- Buildings can be upgraded: missile will be doubled, same for anti-missile, the robot will become golden robot, etc..

Thanks!!

This is probably too far off from your description to be it, but all that reminds me of is S.C.A.R.A.B. [http://www.mobygames.com/game/scarab]

I've been trying to remember this game but it's been killing me cause everything I know is so vague. I remember it was a puzzle game for windows released in the 90's to early 2000's. It had animals and I specifically remember there was this one puzzle in a wintery area that had things that looked like pillars and you placed(?) animals on top of them. There also may have been a castle area of some sort but I also may be misremembering

Figured I might as well give this a shot:
The game I'm thinking of was a f2p steampunk turn based objective game. Essentially the game's main screen had the saloon where you picked missions, bank for items, and a station where you could travel. You would assemble a crew of tech (blimps, long traveling artillery, etc) and cowboys to beat the other team on the gridlike maps and there was also a semi "campaign" that would give you specific limitations (I remember specifically the first mission was learning how to use the blunderbuss character to win in different scenarios) The only other thing I think I remember about the game is you could earn gold nuggets (or freemium them for those with no time to waste) and you could unlock a native american faction with fetishes (totems) and stuff.

So, around 2011-2012ish, give or take a few years, i remember playing this PC game at my friends' (well watching because he was stingy) besides the point. it was a game where you'd be a soldier, then later on you could turn into this werewolf type thing. The games setting seemed in between future and present times. i've been searching for AGES. no trace, can someone help, thanks. (the game was FPS i think, if not it was definitley 3rd person when you were a wolf.)

Been looking for hours on the web but couldn't find anything.

So this was around 1997-ish I played a game on an MS-DOS/Early MAC computer.
I remember the introduction had like a guy come in on like a rollercoaster or minecart or something, and iirc he had a really comically large nose. It had a really odd art style to it.
I also believe it was educational in some way, as I also remember there being a component to it where you pulled a lever and it would like randomly generate words for an ad-lib type story generator.
Honestly, it's really fuzzy, I just remember the really odd art style and wacky characters the most.

Any help would be appreciated.

Hi.

Got a game I've been trying to find for years!

1) It's like Qbeez but with circles, as in they had cute lil faces. When you cleared them they'd say "Spheres!" or something that sounded like that. I think it was a circular stage? The background was black and it looked kinda tech-y futuristic-y in the same way Bejeweled does. It was in the early 2000's and one of those games you got from sites like PopCap or BigFishGames or WildTangent.

Hope you can help!

Hey guys, I hope you can help me!
The game I'm talking about is a PS1 game I played around 1998-1999. It was kind of a racing game, a little bit futuristic (since the vehicles were not only cars but also kind of hovering). I remember one level being a big cake, where you raced on top of it. I know it's a bit vague, but still hope someone can help me out. Best regards.
That sounds a lot like Wipeout, or Maybe F-Zero? Not sure if either of those are on PS1 though.

Sup guys,

There was this one game from whichI played the demo on an online website,
It is about you controlling a tribe of blue 'alien' guys to help them rebuild the village.
You could click on some flowers or mushrooms to get a power of some sort i think.
The last thing i remember doing was building a bridge, then researching and building a school for the children and lastly researching a kite for one of the settlers.

Thats when the demo ended.

I hope some of you can help me, its a bit vague but i played it some years ago. Best regards.

Okay. Hopefully some one can help!
The game I'm looking for was a 1st person 3d platformer. It would have been around '96-98 I guess. Colourful polygon graphics, not pre-rendered backgrounds or anything. I used to play a couple of levels from some PC magazine demo disc way back in the day. What I remember is that the player was some kind of Indiana Jones style character exploring a South American pyramid/temple. The level started outside the temple in a sandy area with palm trees. The temple was a stepped pyramid in front of you. I'm pretty sure you had to collect jewels (and possibly bananas for health). The temple was occupied by savage masked people who would attack you on site. There were traps you had to avoid too. It seemed like quite a hard game at the time, but It was really cool.

Hello Guys!!! I need to know the name os this two games:

First game:

PC Windows game i played in windows XP

The first i played in 2007, its a 3D FPS game about a futuristic War Between 3 factions, The blue human faction and another two alien faction, one Red and another Yellow.

There no infantry, only Vehicles.

In the human said i remember Tanks, Helicopters and Jets.

In all factions the vehicles are made in great centers, these centers can be move and destroy by the enemy.

You can control the vehicles.

Second game:
PC Windows game, i played in windows 98
In it you controlled a character and had to hold a position against a huge horde of what looked like giant insects, you had a machine gun, and an armor. In the first phase in their position there were huge fixed machine guns that looked more like anchors. Then you would take them and shrapnel the insects until the ammunition was gone and then jump to the next.

This game was like that, it started with a CG showing a meteor going towards Earth, there was a huge cemetery, and a ship going to another planet.

Well I've never played a Starship Troopers game, but since it was a popular book/movie that starts with giant alien insects wiping out Buenos Aires with a CG meteor... I'm gonna guess Starship Troopers [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jstKtvheG08].

I signed up in the hope there is someone who happens to remember a game I think I had the demo of about 15 years ago. This is all I can remember:

It was a PC game (maybe multi-platform but I played on PC)
I THINK it was set in a war time
It was a point and click/adventure type of game.
I think you could choose different characters which had different abilities/traits
One thing I definitely remember is that you walk into a pub, then you talk to someone which results you in being captured. You're then thrown in a cell which you have to escape from.

If anyone knows what game this is, thank you for having such a good memory.

Hey guys. I've been searching for this old platform game I use to play on windows, but I can't remember the name.

You are an elf I think, with a blue or purple hat and you collect these purple pairs and throw horseshoes at the other creatures.

I know that there are three games of the same title, and the game has things like secret rooms between levels.

I've been searching for three days now and I can't seem to find it.
