Thank you for the answer! I think it is indeed Ecstatica 2.RelativityMan said:
Truth be told, I chanced upon the name of Ecstatica 2 a few hours after posting my query, and a lot of things looked right (the bluish area with hay, the graphics, etc. etc.), but some of them looked somewhat wrong (I remembered the enemies being humans, not monster, though I'm not sure; and I remembered the 'jail' area being the starting one, which it isn't in the actual game, I had no recollection of the brighter areas, and a few other small incongruities of the sort). So, basically, I was kind of convinced that it must have been Ecstatica 2, but something didn't quite click.
Then I thought to look for the demo version of the game, and lo and behold, the demo version begins in the 'jail' area, you never visit the bright external ones I had no memories of, and you get teleported to another room which looked rather familiar, so that solved a major problem I had. There were still a few minor things which felt slightly out of place, but when I showed the demo video to my mum she remembered it, so I think there's no doubt that what I played as a kid was indeed Ecstatica 2 demo version, and my memory of it was just slightly distorted by time.
Sorry for the long post again, and thank you very much! =)
So I joined here to see if anyone could help me figure this out....
There are two games that I've been trying to remember the names of for ages, but no matter how much I try, I can't find anything
1. The first game was a CD ROM game. I played it in the mid-2000s (think around 2003-2006). What I remember was that it was sort of a point and click mystery game. It had sort of a hubworld that was inside of an office. In order to pick what case you wanted, I think you went to a file cabinet and picked folders from the cabinet. One part that I remember is that you had to go around interrogating different people. When you talked to them, you had this sidebar on the left of the screen with a bunch of different foods and drinks to give them depending on what they wanted in order to get information from them (things like a can of soda, a cup of tea, pizza, and a hamburger are what I think I remember.) They were all human characters, and the artstyle was 2D and cartoony.
2. Another CD-ROM game. I got it from my Kindergarten Teacher in 2005, but I'm pretty sure the game was made in the 90s. When you started up the game, you would be inside of a tree-house. a greenscreened actor wearing a bee costume would appear and give you an introduction to the game. The bee had a high pitched voice, a big red nose, and wore white gloves. When you got into the game, you were able to create your own story books. The writing screen was framed inside of a brown book with the textbox on the left. You could also add drawings, stickers, animated pictures, and sounds to your book.
Do these sound familiar to anyone? Please let me know.

I remember playing/watching someone play a very strange flash game that was on Newgrounds a while ago. I remember a lot about it, so it shouldn't be too hard to find, I hope.
I am pretty sure that you would play as Tom Fulp (no joke) and you would ride on some elevator. Every time you went down on the elevator, you got a new weapon. You would go around and smack up enemies with the weapon that you got, and I remember that there was even a "Badger Badger Badger" kinda level on it somewhere, which just shows how stupid this game was.
I was talking with a friend earlier and we both remember playing this, so I know it exists somewhere.

I have been searching this PC game all over the internet and i still can't find it, and it's not even that old!
It's a 3D third person shooter that has definitely post GTA 3 graphics (maybe a bit worse/better). You start off with a cinematic driving a truck with your friend or someone you know, you go into a house and a bunch of soldiers show up to arrest you for some reason, they arrest your friend but you hid in the bathroom and you begin the game there.
You stab some soldiers, get their guns, escape the city with a friendly guy you met and escape into the canals, there you form some kind of resistance against the soldiers and you get an option to chose 2 sections, 1st section is blocked off by enemy snipers so you have to go to 2nd section to flank and kill them, after that you can proceed to 1st section and destroy all enemies in some kind of base they have. After this mission you get some allies and you fight trough series of missions, there is even a section where you have to shoot a helicopter with a minigun.

Hi! I've been looking this game for years without luck
I played a little so this is what I remember:
Its an adventure/rpg game for PC of the 90s, mostly similar to Lufia in graphics. Im not quite sure if it was for Windows or DOS. You start the game in a monastery (I believe you are a monk apprentice) trapped after an earthquake. The mission is to investigate what happened in the surroundings (you can even talk to other monks). You can collect objects and try to solve puzzles. That's all. I know for sure its not the game called Murder in the Abbey cause its from 2008 or its predecessor.
I would appreciate it if you can help me please

hello i've been looking for a game for more than 5 years and i can vaguely descrbe it as a side scroller shooting orbs/balls at enemies with each power up letting you shoot bigger balls and multiple another thing i can remember is that 2 of the bosses one which was a clown and the other was a pirate, this was a sega game but i also might be mistaken also the weaker the enemies got the color scheme for them would change and so on idk how much this gives out for details its quite vague altough would apreciate if someone actually finds out the name of this forgotten game
Arcade, you play as a ninja in blue outfit and fight against reds and whites (not entirely sure about the colors). Some levels you had to swim "dive" through. i believe it was a platform shooter otherwise, protagonist throwing shuriken (ninja stars) I remember the ninjas as small bodies with slightly bigger heads.

all i remember from it, you play as a blonde short haired girl that keeps dancing, she wears a weird looking future suit that generates power via movement, and you run through ... hallways and fight machines and whatnot, it's very popular about the dancing move in it.
and i can't recall anything else about it... a future set up, you wear a suit with some kind of mechanism on the back, you keep moving to generate energy then you shoot the energy as a weapon at robots, you progress though hallways and chambers. that's all i recall.

Still trying to find this one game from the early 2000's, I played it from that old "RealArcade" game launcher app, I think.
It was one of those old farming sims, you played as some girl who helped her parents run a farm, there were story elements to it. The gameplay was pretty simple. If I remember correctly you'd just plant stuff, water it, wait for it to grow, and fight off monsters trying to eat/steal your crops using your shovel. The story of the game kept progressing and at one point I clearly remember a part where some pirates kidnap your parents and hold them ransom, so you have to go back to farming to save up the money to free them. I think that might have been the last chapter of the story, because I remember it taking a long-ass time to save up enough money.
There may or may not have been a time limit on that. Or at the very least there was a day counter, although I don't think it really served a purpose. Little-kid me might have just thought the only reason for a day counter was because there was a time limit.
Anyways it wasn't one of those isometric grid-based farming games either if I recall correctly, more like you had a given number of "plots" to plant stuff in, just scattered around. Oh yeah, and the enemies got really weird near the end. The level I was grinding to save up enough money to free my parents had ghosts in it. You would whack ghosts with a shovel. Weird stuff.
This game was around the era of those early yet really-good-quality flash games. If anyone has played Insanaquarium, like, when it first came out, that's the era I'm talking. Also I think this farming game might have been part of a series.

Also one more request:
There was this old game for the PC (Windows probably) where you would go around levels, just destroying everything, as some giant monster from a classic horror movie trope. No, it's NOT War of the Monsters! Although it was VERY SIMILAR to that, if anyone has played that. Except I think it came out even before War of the Monsters, and was PC-only at the time.
I can't remember all the monsters, but one that stuck with me the most was a GIANT BRAIN with eyes. It was just a floating brain, spinal cord, and eyes. Very fleshy details, probably why it stuck with me because it scared me so much as a kid. Every monster had different attacks, the flying brain had lasers, I definitely remember that.
Pretty sure every level you'd just get a random monster too. Or maybe it wasn't random, but either way, you'd play as a different monster every level. The levels got harder as you went on. First it was just "Have fun and destroy the city and eat people!", but eventually the military started showing up, and you could actually die. I remember one level where you could destroy a nuclear power plant and there were a bunch of little yellow-suited hazmat guys running around.

Not sure, but could that be HarmoKnight?reader5 said:
Except for the blond hair, that sounds like one of the games in the Space Channel series.
