It was investigation game for PC as far as I remember. It's a older game.. I remember that you begin as a female in some little town, And you are waiting for some guy in a park... Then you have to investigate the murder in one of the apartment you can go trough that little town (Jump the walls and stuff). I remember that i found a blonde wig. And trough the game you are playing with some guy too. It swiches characters trough the story. I remember that main chick was black haired. (Game is 3D)
Sounds like Broken Sword or the sequel.
Yeah, sounds like Broken Sword: The sleeping Dragon.
Love that series :)

This game is within the 90s and, maybe, early 2000s. First person, with movement transitions and mobility akin to the original Myst. There was a dark city, an ineffectual flashlight, and this winged pterodactyl-like creature that swooped in and out of several scenes as I entered them.
I remember one room, which was huge and contained a 2-foot gadget which may have looked like a thimble with little slots attached to it. I remember entering this room and seeing the flying creature put a marble into it, then I watched it take the marble away when the sphere came out of a slot.

Hi folks,

I'm not sure if this really fits into the theme of the thread, but here is one for you.

It was a side-scrolling space shooter a la Galaga or Einhander, advancing from left to right. On the internet, flash-based, from roughly a few years ago. There were decent graphics, although they did look a little bit too generic. You caught powerups from defeated ships in the typical manner. Short, easy, fun.

Any takers?
While it's not quite what you're after, it sounds like they just copied Raiden's gameplay into a side scroller. Raiden plays exactly the same way, except it's top down.

All I remember is it had a Squirrel and there was a Pirate Ship level... least I believe it was a squirrel. It was for the PC, 2D sidescrolling, the graphics were pretty nice for a game somewhere between DOS and the early Windows OS. At least I remember them looking nice, it had flat coloring and was on the stylized cartoon side of the art spectrum.

I remember jumping across masts, running on top of Sail Rods as a maze of ropes littered the background.

This will probably be one of the most vaguest descriptions ever, but it is all I can remember after racking my brains for years.

The game I am seeking is for the Playstation 1. I remember hiring if from Blockbuster roughly circa late 1990's and I am sure it had a Japanese type namebut not 100% sure of this. All I rememeber is that the main playable character is white I think (either some kind of animal or human ...not sure).

I know it has something to do with the characters father or grandfather going missing/died/or send into another dimension. the character has some kind of amulet either a brooch or a ring with a stone on it. I am sure the aim of the game is to reunite the character with his lost family member using the amulet.

I remember finding the ending quite emotional at the time and left me thinking there might be a sequal or maybe I just got a bad ending and the magic/power did not work and you were still left alone at the end!

I know this is really vague but somebody must be able to help and rememeber something :)

HI! I can't remember this old PC game I played on Windows 98. It had a blonde guy who traveled place to place killing monsters. My most significant memories of it were him being in a cave, and climbing up the mountain the cave was in. It was a game by Sierra.

Hello guys. I saw the name of the thread an I thought that I could get some help. So I will begin right away with the description of the game.

The game as far as I remember was an RTS one, in the 1995-1999. Could be a bit earlier, 1993 at least.

In the demo that I was playing years ago, you had the possibility of controlling 2 factions (only one was playable and as far as I remember it was the far left. It had a white star as its emblem). In the first demo mission you began with a vehicle which you could transform into one main building from which you could create marines and marines mounting dino-like creatures. You could also move around the map in case you didn't transform your vehicle into a building. Boxes where scattered across the map in case you were exploring that hid bonuses such as spawning walker robots etc. The map terrain was grassy with rocks and on the top left was snowy with an enemy base. In this game you could also control tanks, twin cannon tanks and walker robots. The "good" ones (which you control in the map) had metallic white colour while the enemy black metallic with some red and white. The enemy could also create something spiderlike walkers.

In the second mission you were given walkers with very low hp so you could not win the level (personally I couldn't beat it :p)

That's all I remember. Please if someone knows the title of the game, reply. I have been searching this game and haven't found it yet. I don't think it's Cyberstorm cause I have both Cyberstorm 1 and Cyberstorm 2 (in which you can control tanks and grav tanks). Thanks in advance.

Hey all,
I've been trying to track down this game I used to play as a kid and its been bugging me like hell that I can't remember it. I'm pretty sure it was on the Dreamcast but I can't be sure on that point. It was around in the mid-90's though

Essentially, its a 3rd person sci-fi space fighter game where humanity has fled earth and colonized other planets and its constantly repelling the bug-like aliens that have taken over earth and other planets. It is not Armada. The ending was that Earth was not salvagable and humanity had to push the moon into the earth to kill everything there.

Thanks in advance,
Dental.

I need to know the name of this game. It was a MS-DOS game I played when I was younger. Basically, there was a bunch of pictures and you had to sound out the sound of each picture, blend them together to make out a phrase. Ex. a picture of a cat and a picture of this: +CH.. that would day catch, but they were longer phrases.. that's just an example so you get the gist of it. There was also a bonus round later where you had to match up cards and you win a matching car. Please help me remember!!
