I've skimmed hundreds of pages on this thread in hopes someone else has been searching for the same game, but it seems I'm not so lucky! So!

The game I'm looking for was an old internet browser game from CoolMath.com or an extremely similar online gaming website back in the late 90's/early 2000's; it was a top down pixel adventure style game with a vague Halloween/monster kind of theme to it where you played someone that had to retrieve monster dolls [ specifically I remember a Mummy, Vampire, Frankenstein, and Witch doll- but there we're more, I could never play/beat the game well enough to retrieve them all without dying ]and return them to a little girl in a small village. There was a vast forest surrounding the village along with a swamp that you had to go through and find the various locations where the dolls had been taken to- I vividly remember the Mummy doll being in a house/cellar at the very lower bottom of the screen, but was surrounded by bats that attacked you the second you entered the house- so you either had to fight your way through them, or run in and grab it and run out before dying.

I believe, as you got the dolls and returned them, you we're given either a new power-up or a weapon that made you stronger and better able to get the other dolls. I do remember the colors being very dark and the game was extremely hard for a web-browser game. Like I said, I could never finish it, but I was obsessed with playing it as a kid.

The memory of this game has haunted me for years and I'd love to try and find it again since all web searches have taken me nowhere- well, they actually keep bringing me back to this thread. Guess that's why I'm finally caving and asking.

Looking for a old pc game i played about 10ish years ago.

I vaguely remember the opening and remember a brain that was punched or hit by a child i think.

It may have been a sci fi as i remember the opening part of the game involving walking through a lab hallway to a shooting range where you could try out your characters gun and powers which was to shoot a fireball.

In the early 90s I played a game at someone's house on the PC. It could be an 80's game. The game would allow you to play co-operatively with at least three people when the computer was working properly - 1 person on the mouse, one using keys on the right side of the keyboard, and one using keys on the left side of the keyboard. There was a warrior character, a wizard/mage type character, and I believe a female archer. Maybe there was one more, not sure.

In the game you would go around a 2d maze type level killing things and getting food and potions, and eventually finding black holes that were exits to the next level. I remember at least some of the food looked like a big, roasted turkey or something like that. I think there were pigs lages or something as well. I remember I had an insane amount of fun on it, but was upset that we could only play with two players on the computer.

If anyone has any idea what game it could be, that would be awesome.

Sorry about the multiple posts. The system was being slow so I hit the "I agree" button multiple times. Now I can't figure out how to delete the excess posts.

Thanks! I just found that! Found a list of coop games in wikipedia! I think it was Gauntlet 2 because I was playing on some type of home computer (I was like 5-9).

Hello
Can anyone help find a dos or old computer space colony game?
In it, you land in a rocket. You got to level the ground before you can build anything. You raised animals or such. You were able to upgrade or mutate them. You could call the rocket back for help, as it shot back up, it played a sound "to be on the stars"
I can remember a green landscape. Grey or white rocket. I think your base got attacked at certain times.
Thx for anyone finding it.

Hi there!
I'm looking for a game that is at least 18 years old.
It was a sort of a RPG, with wizards and things like that.
The maps of each level looks like old myth and magic franchise. But the battle didn't happen in another screen, but in the same environment and if i remember correctly, it wasn't turn shaped.
You usually controled 1 to 4 or 5 heroes at the same time, and in the main story some treason happens (not sure if this last information will help)
Before you started a level, you could shopping in a city, hire mercenaries and even buy catapults and other stuffs.
Another thing I remember, is that if you carry too many things in the inventory, you became a lot slower. (Skyrim like).

If anyone can give me some ideas i would appreciate.

Thanks

Around what year did he play it? And what did he play it on? These are some key things to help us narrow it down.

If the 'coins' were actually teeth and he played it around 2011, it might've been Alice: Madness Returns [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4nys1dCN7_E&list=PLb6XPBIiYN9Rv3CMGuubnBL7lO-U0MaiK].

I want to know about two games. First was an browser game played it like 5 years back. The graphic was black and white mostly, You was playing as a king of a relam shaped in a potato with 4 hands collor was black. An you could bild house market palace mine and few other things. I wasen?t good at that game so every time you bancrupt your king was sitting and crying. Or there was people attacking with farming tools or stuff like that. Pretty simple game
.
Now the second one. It was an Ipad game so idk if it was for PC too, now you was playing as a young king (prince perhaps) and you had one city. You was building army to fight against monsters. It was in like anime style so big swords big hair and stuff. There were knights spearmens and some girls with green hairs with two blades if I remember and some more. You was attacking monsters castles. They had red walls and there were roots from the ground when you came closer to the wall. It was a normal siege you could controll your hero and do some special combos. The monsters also attack you castle back. There were princesses and when you watched an ad or did something she got to like you. There was also some court blacksmith and mage. You was also able to develop city a bit raise taxes and stuff. It wasen?t game like forge of empires Ikariam not even the Clash of clan type game or like the online games. It was single player game. I will appriciate every help!

I played this game many years ago on an old computer. In the game, you played as a super hero slug, just a basic looking slug with a cape. You tap the space bar I believe at different speeds to make the slug fly. There was 3 levels of height u could fly between, the bottom layer having lava on both the left and right side of a platform, which if u touched, u died, and if u flew close enough a claw would grab u and try to pull you in, but you could tap the space bar faster and escape it. I believe the enemies were little robot things. Don?t remember much else about it though. Anyone know this game?

Hello my dear nostalgic paws! I've been thinking about a game which I believe was on PS2 maybe even on a demo disc. It was a strategy game and quite a sci-fi type. You had either a Blue base or Red base and you had to fight your ennemy with tanks or choopers, or maybe the choppers were just to defend. Your units would move maybe automatically from wherever you spawned them, I think you also had to capture checkpoints or destroy turrets maybe both on your way to the ennemy base. The map looked like a black maze and I remember a quite mechanical voice saying stuff like "Base Blue attack Red". At some point of the game you can have a heavy armed tank almost unstoppable or a super-chopper. There we go I said everything I remember. Thanks in advance for your help!

Hi all, hoping for some help here!

Played an old game in the 90's, set in a haunted mansion. Dark graphics, basically would show you the image of a room, lots of blue and black. I *think* it was text command based, but may have had some presets. I distinctly remember opening a cupboard and having to grab a moving matchbox, a lab downstairs that would jump scare and kill you with a snake if you did the wrong thing, and a creepy curator out the back digging a grave that would follow you and chop you up with an axe. Any help here would be great, generic "haunted mansion old game" searches have been fruitless so far, and I'd like to dig it out for Halloween!
Hi,

The description reminds me of: The Last Half of Darkness, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jfgqUqmiRdM&t=76s
