Games you can't remember, but still miss - describe them.

[jayj08]

This is a very old game I played on my grandfather's computer. I remember quite a bit just need the name now. You started off as a man or women men started in a blue speedo(women in a blue bikini) and in a small town. I dont remember if there was a quest but the only thing to do was go to a show or go all the way up to this cave. In the cave there was many levels and you explored it. Each part of the level was made visible when you went there. Rooms would show only show as you explored. The screen if i remember right was all white until you explored the level and you had to take ladders down. The levels themselves were grey in color. The very first spell you would get is a magic arrow, and it shot a green bolt at your enemies. One would find a sword or an ax laying around, or even from the enemies. The enemies I remember fighting included skeletons, large ants and maybe a rat. The toughest thing I fought was a tarantula and that was level 4 or 5. One had a backpack and could go back to the town to sell items. It reminds me alot like a very early diablo, but it wasnt that this was a dos game and it was good.

Please help me find this I would really love to play it again, and I recommend it to anyone as well.

Might not have been DOS but i did play this in the very early 90s i stopped playing it prob around 98...I wish there was more I could say....
I also remember that when u got items it changed the way your guy looked(not sure exactly)

Okay, I have been trying to remember an old game which I used to play when I was a child.

So there was an alien or some sort creature and you can take like hammer, screwer, drill etc tools to finish the level (you have to bang the nails and other screws and stuff..)

There was some sort enemies and I am not sure can you kill them, I think you just avoid them..

I'm not sure, but I think you might be talking about of one game that I played as a child, Gubble [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gubble].

There was this game on the NES where you and another person could play two player. You were ninjas and each of the different weapons in the game allowed you to turn into a different animal to get through the stage. I remember the sword let you turn into a dragon. I can't for the life of me remember what it was called but it was awesome.

It was a game to ps1 i think you could choose between 2 chars a man dreswsed like a clown or a girl that can jump dubble jump and i think the clown could spin or something and i think it was 2d.

 

[delli94]

You played ass a starship or something and you shot tings in the galaxy it was 2d to ps1 and you played different levels and i thin the cover was a purple flight and the same flight in the menu and in the game and sometimes you get assist by something that fly around you i know its a bad description but its all i can remenber.
I have been looking for it now 3 years every month i spend 2 hours looking for it

I'm not sure, but I guess you might be talking about of Pandemonium [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pandemonium_%28video_game%29].

So here's a bit of a challenge. There was a game I would play with my brothers that was actually a screensaver. It was a bunch of robot insects and stuff and they'd shoot each other. There were two types that flew and a big lizard, there was a little bomb one that would just blow up. One that only had one gun and others that had tons of guns. One thing I remember too is that it had a cool soundtrack and one of the songs was "We Three Kings" Any ideas?

I'm looking for an old PC game, similar to Pokemon. You would capture and train up strange monsters, like a vorpal bunny, a carrot (carrot top?), and I think a cactus and a jack-in-the-box (boxacot?) were a couple other ones as well. They had strange names and even stranger pictures, and I'm pretty sure it was just a 2D game.

Hi guys!

First of all I wanted to let you know that the idea of this topic an the work you have done, finding all these games is astonishing!!
Secondly. I haven't had the time to look through the posts to see if someone already was looking for the game. Apperently a lot of people have the same problem =)

Now: The game I'm looking for was for PC. I think win95. I remember you playing a little guy in a one collered car. The camera view is from directly above. As for the gameplay: you play against other AI players in teir cars, and must win a race around the map. The map lookes a bit like monopoly. You got some actionpoints, not sure if the points are static or you have to dice them. There are different collered spots you can land on, which trigger some kind of events. I think I remember one being that you could put nails on the track to stop one of the opponents.

Thats about as much as I remember. I really hope that someone knows that game!!
Thanks in advance

I might as well post here since I came up dry to as to what either of these games could be.

The first game is I believe a Gamecube game. It was on a demo disk when I played it on vacation one time.
*You played as a warrior.
*You could swap to a female hero at anytime/sometime.
*You ate Churros for health(This should be a giveaway to anyone who knows it)
*It was a hack and slash type game.

The second game is a pc game that was also on an old demo disk. This one may be old enough to date back to dos and came with one of the desent series games I believe.
*It was a turn based strategy game.
*You could equip your troops.
*It was 3d.
*It was Humans/Marines vs. Aliens.
*The demo's first level only had melee aliens if I recall.
*The demo's first level I believe took place on a giant walk way thing floating above darkness.

Okay, another question.(I seem to have them alot).

I remember a game, 2d, space game, when you can use different ships and goto other planets and solar systems to collect different materials. I recall that there was somekind aliens or "space pirates" or something like that who attacked you, if you meet them.

If you go to the planet, you can see temperature and other info and too hot planet can hurt your ship (If I recall right).

There was a basic fight mode too, where you just choose few ships and fight against comp or player.

Hi all,

Please help me on finding a point and click adventure game.
The platform is MS-DOS or win95, I played the shareware version.
The graphics were 2d. I played it around 2000, but I think it was created earlier.
The name I can recall is 'b7', but I cannot find the game by it's name. It's not the action game based on the Blake's 7 series.

The goal of the shareware version of the game is to escape from a spaceship.

These are the in-game details I can recall:

You have to cause a fire in your cell to get the guards to extinguish it. After that they will let the door open to let the smoke out and post a guard next to your door.
You have to wait until the guard is looking away from you and strangle him from the back. (with an electrical wire or garden hose I think)
After escaping from your cell you'll get in a hallway, with each door having some kind of electrical lock. You could open one by unscrewing it and solving some kind of puzzle.

I recall going through other rooms (of the guards) picking up stuff I needed to escape. (getting it from drawers and cabinets). Probably also finding some other prisoners that didn't survive...

You have escaped from the spaceship and you are on a bare planet, I think most of it is red/orange dirt. You are near a cliff and on the other side is something blinking, probably a ring.

Just before or just after you're able to get the ring the shareware version stops, You get an advertisement for the full version of the game, taking place at a new planet.

Could it be H.P. Lovecraft's "Prisioner of Ice" adaptation to the games?

Hope it helped.

I have a game that I've been looking for, for years! I can see what it looks like in my head but I can't think of the name of it for the death of me. It's a PC game, I want to say it's in the 90's, but I'm not sure. You play as a little boy with orange hair and everything is cartoonish. You live in a big house with other people, it's like a big apartment house of some sort? With plenty of weird characters. You start off going to the kitchen because it's diner time, but your older sister says that the diner menu or whatnot is missing and you need to go find it somewhere in the house. From going to room to room and picking up things and solving puzzles to get different things in return for other things you get deeper into the house and what not. That's all I can remember. I do remember certain things about certain rooms. I remember you having to do a puzzle in the bathroom with boats or something. I remember having to get something from a soda machine. Getting milk from a cow that was in the kitchen. There was a certain room that you couldn't get into unless you had a vip pass. Haha. This was my favorite game to play as a kid, and I really want to remember what it is called and find it and play it and be happy. Haha. Can anyone help me out, please?

Hope it helped.

Thank you very much for the suggestion Taffao, but that is not the right game.
I think the game I'm looking for was older, because it had less detail in the graphics.

I'm still looking though, so any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

 

[jensine.hernandez]

There is a game that it is eating at me because i cant remember what its called!! it was a cartoon game where an astronaut would kill these one eyed aliens if i remember right and would try and save these girl aliens in cages which reminded me of go-go dancers. I remember he used to say hot damn a lot. I know it was either on sega genesis or playstation 1. Please help if you remember!!!! thanks alot

Hi this may be dead.....But. I had a game on a ps1 demo disk. where you were a blue aircraft of some sort and it was side scrolling. Then you would fight like a boss and could steal his weapon.

 

[LombaxWhisperer]

Okay, in my earlier post I mentioned that I would wait until I get to know the names of the games, but sadly no one really seems to know them and I just happened to remember this one silly game, so I'll just ask about it. =)

It was a PC game, I'm sure of that. I remember having the demo version of the game (the demo was included in some disc full of demo games), or if it was a full game, then there wasn't that much to do. I remember you could make some 'Wanted' posters in that game... You could choose the character's hair, eyes, nose and mouth or something like that. I also remember that when you clicked on things (such as next/previous arrows or something like that), it would make some silly sound. The game sounds odd, it was pretty odd, but I remember loving that game. Anyone know?
