Hi,
I like this forum, 814 pages of people like me that are trying to recall an old game they once were addicted to.
The game I'm looking for is ~30 years old.
You had to jump from rope to rope, each rope had a different length and each rope was swinging in a different rhythm.
If it was possible, I would add an audio file with the game music as I remember it.
I'll be very thankful for the one that can assist with remembering the game.
Many thanks in advance.
Is this Jungle Hunt?

And my game... I have been trying to find anything about it for ages... I played it in an arcade Brazil in the late 80's... 86 or 87, I guess... same time frame as Sega's Choplifter arcade game. It was similar to Xevious, but with better (for the time) graphics. Vertical scrolling, with "ground" and "air" targets. AFAIR The goal was to destroy crystal balls embedded in scaffolding. What stood out for me was the very realistic glyphs of the crystal balls. Must have spent a ton of money on this, but can't remember the name (it was probably changed in Brazil anyhow - "Xevious" was called "Columbia" here for some reason).

Adding some more info, there were power ups and the screen was vertically (portrait) oriented.

Appreciate any help!

I remember playing an old pc 2d game as a kid, it used a green hue/tone for colors and i remember you were a man going back and forth from either a sewer or a mineshaft. Could have been some kind of puzzle game. I also know i played it on windows 98. I didnt get to play the game much as it was accidentally deleted.
Here is an image i found that is really close to the game i remember playing:

Hi there! A tough one to the forum, let's see if someone remembers.

This game is either a late NES or an early SNES. I think it's a NES one.

It's very simlar to Faxanadu, even I have in my mind that it has a simmilar name, but after watching faxanadu in youtube, it's not that one. Even I remember the first few minutes having a brownish/orangish color all over.

I remember it being very similar and difficult to play.

Thanks!
I take it it's not one of the Castlevanias? If that's the case, how about Legacy of the Wizard? Looks like there are some brownish/orangish dungeon walls and such around:

Thanks for the answer. You are right, it's not the castlevanias but it's also not the one you sent me. The "hero" was bigger than the one in the video, much bigger,short of ghost and ghauls size in the screen....

Unfamiliar with the game in question but this is probably a good place to start

I'm gonna guess you're looking for the FusionFall game

Hey everyone, I'm new to this website but I am looking for a game I used to play maybe 10 years ago. I believe it was on PlayStation 2 but it may have been 1 or even Xbox as I only played it at a friends house. In the game you have these little monster things that you can evolve and train. Similar to Pok?mon almost but with very different graphics. Also I distictly remember a tree with a face that could talk. I do hope someone knows what I'm talking about because I have been looking for the game for years it always was so much fun when I was a kid. Thanks!
Could it have been the PS3 game Ni no Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch? It's not shown in the Moby Games screenshots, but there is a talking tree early on.

Hi everyone,

I've been searching this old game for a very long time. Its an action adventure game where the character use fist, leg, or sword to fight. You can change character during gameplay & recruit people. I remember the game start at jungle where you can jump on tree branch. Sometime there is a tiger jump out from the bush. I remember the character is topless and wear blue pants. Another clue is when the character almost die there is a candle light represent the character life where it become dimmer till it gone off if the character dead. It's kinda old game from 90's I guess and I don remember from which platform.

Please help!!
Thanks in advance.

Hi, guys!

Having a hard time searhing for a game. I remember that in a first level(in an urban environment, had bums, civilians, cops in it) you receive a sniper rifle (from a guy with an orange coat, I think), kill a sniper who was located in a bridge, get arrested, escape from a prison (coudn't remember anything after that). It was most likely first-person, had mostly open-ended levels (kinda like in Hitman series) and was released before 2005.

Hi there! Just found this thread so I HAVE to throw this game out there. It's been bugging me forever!

Only saw it played once when I was over a friend's house. Pretty sure it was for the NES, but I could be wrong.

It was a side-scrolling platformer with a choice of characters, somewhat similar to Mario 2 (Doku-Doku Panic or whatever).

Each character had a different balance of speed, jump height, and health, from what I recall. They may have had other abilities, but I don't remember. For sure I can remember 3 characters. A little boy, a little girl, and a blob. The blob was super slow, couldn't jump, but had a ton of health.

I want to say I remember my friend called it "The Wacky Wizard of Oz" or something. But we were little and he could have been making that up, since a search for that yielded nothing helpful for me.

Memory is pretty spotty but this was a PC game in I think the early 90's. Takes place in a mental hospital. You get possessed every now and again by your ghost father, grandfather, uncle or something. Such instance include injecting yourself with one of 4 syringes, one includes the bubonic plague. You try and help ghost, one that was convinced that she had a child when she never did. One of the puzzles include getting out of an iron lung type device that generates a large amount of heat and the only way to escape is by using a lighter near a temperature control device. That is all I remember of it.
in case there wasnt a reply, it was called Blackstone Chronicles: an adventure in terror based on the books by John Saul

I am SO glad I found this page! I've been on a computer since we had to program pong ourselves into our pic's using binary code if we wanted to play...so this game I'm looking for is really old. Having add and OCD made it the perfect game for me. It was simply a box of cookies that you had to tilt to the right or left to be able to get rid of them. A prequel to tetras type games I think. Does anyone remember? I was on a Mac and I think it was in the 80's. Thanks ☺

There's this little German "The Settlers" minigame "Hiebe f?r Diebe" (2000), alternatively search for "Hiebe fuer Diebe" if you have problems with the umlauts. Normally I'd provide a link but there's no official download at BlueByte's.
But it's freeware anyways and pretty easy to find once you know what to look for.

Mmh, I think we had a similar request a while back. Search for the game "Building Panic" (2001).
It's freeware, so it's easy to get.
