Hi, I need help with remembering the name of a game I use to play.

I played it in the late 90's / early 2,000.
It's a war turn-based PC game. You would build your army, units would take time to build so you would turn to the next day. With your army you would defend you castle or attack other castles (AI - NOT multilayer). The aim of the game was to take control of all the land. Game was set in the past, don't know what year (it had cannon's though). When attacking another castle you could control the troops from a sky point of view. Telling them where to go and how to attack.


Any help would be loved :)

Civilization??

For the life of me I cannot remember what game this was, but back in the day I swear I saw it in Nintendo power. The best way I can describe it would be that it showed a battle scene where you had 2 sides, yours and computer. You would put down or select which units you wanted to fight. If I remember the picture correctly, there were dragons, angels, and other kinds of monsters. In a way it reminds me of final fantasy tactics but it was from the snes era I believe perhaps sega genisis.

If anyone knows what I am talking about I would greatly appreciate it!
Sounds like a PC game I use to play called Heroes of Might and Magic.

Some game on the SNES, it was sidescroller with a golden yellow background. You controlled this half naked dude with a brown Nathan Drake hair cut and beard and I had no idea what to do. I vaguely remember a village but that's about it.

I really cannot think of that game.
Maybe this might help?

If you can remember more of the game, or something else in it, I might be able to help more.

There was a game I used to play. It was a racing game with a yellow car where you could get a ramming powerup and use it to go through secret passages. I believe it was at least on the xbox.

Also there is another car game I used to play where it was not unlike twisted metal in the way that you killed rival cars, but it was a lot more cartoony. There were four different stages you could play (desert, space, jungle, and another one) and you picked up and used all kinds of wacky items to kill the other cars such as a saw-blade, a spear-gun, a cleaver, and a vacuum. I also think this one was also for the xbox.

Not sure of first one, but what about Road Kill, or 187 Ride or Die?

It was not either of those... though i found the second one (Cel damage) though now im looking for yet another car game... This one had an open world and you could fight cars. One of the things i seem to remember most about it is going to a shop and upgrading the tires to either spike tires, or hover tires where the picture looked like a pipe pointed towards the ground.

hi everyone,recently i was troubled by the thought of this particular game that i couldn't remember. Most of the details are muddled up, so please spare me for the inaccurate info.
The game is about some girl who was reborn in the mortal world by the gods due to some conflict.(this is not clear in my head)
The girl goes on many quests and finds more about gods etc.
This game has sleep feature,eating food and drinking water.I think its a rpg type, the landscape is kinda medieval-ish and magical-ish.
the battle system is turn based but not like those boring still animations. Its has some 3d look to it too.
the ending scene of the game i think was where the girl destroys a dark crystal of somekind and the shard of the crystal pierces some god(i think).
This game was created between either 1998-2006.

Warlords?

http://www.mobygames.com/game-group/warlords-universe

It was a very popular franchise, and could be said to be a predecessor to the Heroes of Might and Magic franchise.

Lords of the Realm may be another possibility. It had some castle building elements in it, as well as detailed siege warfare:

Hello there, I Really need to figure out the name of this game that consisted of Insects. The game was sort of a Colonization type game that was for the pc where you started out with a set number of strongholds that you could level up or enhance. It was made roughly around mid to late 1990's or even early 2000's. The only things I can remember were that the main colors of the different colonies were red, blue, green, and blue. And that with each different strong hold you collected, you got different bugs with guns on them or attacks. Including Spiders, Wasps, Ants, and others. I really miss this game and I haven't played it for years. If anyone could name anything close to something like this, that would be great. I really look forward to your responses. Remember this is an older game so it isn't an app for Androids or Ipods. Thanks a lot.

-Demikachuu over and out.
I am 99% sure I own this game and know what you're talking about, but I can't remember the name of it myself. I think it might have been "Dominant Species?" Here are a few screenshots. This might be it, it might not.




Let me know, thanks.

Ahh this game looks cool, but sadly it is not the one. The entire game was looked at from an overview sort of as if you were watching these bugs battle. And the graphics for it were more realistic than cartoonish, but I do want to check this game out now. Thank you :D

Hello everyone!

I'm missing a name for a game, but luckily I could find a picture of it. The site with the picture didn't have a name for it, so I was hoping someone would recognize it.

Thanks in advance.

Good luck!

Hi there!

I'm trying to find a NES game (obviously I cannot remember the name). What I can remember is that you are a soldier or something and you plant bombs to break through things to get to the end of the level. You lay the detonation cords. In the game there were blue sections, which if you touched them you'd die. I was very small when I played the game, so I'm not sure if the blue sections were water or something. I think you could blast through these blue sections as well. You had a top view of the level, almost like Bomberman (but it's not Bomberman). Lastly, the theme is some popular war song (I can't remember that name either...). Perhaps someone knows what I'm talking about?

Thanks!

Hello.
I've been searching for a game I used to play on win98, old game. It was fun and the whole family played it.
So, it was in 2D, I think you were in a role of a miner and you had to complete several levels, by killing all the monsters in the level or getting to the finish(I think)...first monster I remember is a blue thing, its moving like your charecter - following your steps, others are like some kind of aliens, purple, red,... While you were digging dirt, you could move rocks and with them you could kill some of the monsters (if it fell on them). You could also use dynamite and bombs to destroy something.
First room is full of dirt and two blue monsters, one is trapped in a rock room. There is one more level full of rocks, and you had to move them so the entrance to complete the level is opened.
Oh, and when you die there is a picture of a death stone and R.I.P. on it.
I tried to find it, but all I could find were some newer versions on the online sites for games, not so cool. :(

Thank you in advance!
Nothing at all? :(
