I am also looking for a game, I would really appreciate if anybody could somehow remember the name of it for me.

The game is a platformer you started out as some kind of mage or something I can't really describe, I do remember you could have this 2 powers : fire ball which just did damage and ice ball which bounced back from the wall. When you died in the game some screen appeared with an evil reference of sorts. I think you could travel in the game by going left/right side of the screen also you could go up if there was a path but the game was 2D and also very old. Shortly you stumbled upon a shop near some waterfall if I recall correctly and you could buy stuff but I never got money for it, I was a kid at that time and I never managed to pass even the first stage, after you roamed around just a little you found yourself in some kind of arena, yea just like a gladiator type of arena and if you kept going on the right side there was a hole in the arena I never understood what was going on. The game itself was pretty colorful. Also I think the atmosphere was sort of like the Hercule game one, some Rome type of environment.

Mine's from at least the 90s. A strategy game we only ever played the demo for; I think it came on a golden cd with a demo for another game we liked called Sacrifice, along with many others. I recall being able to explore the map or kill enemies to get tech upgrades. More specifically, I would be allowed to use a new tread, gun, or body design on my tanks to customize them however I wanted. That's the big thing that sticks out in my head.

Alright this ones been eluding me for ages, from what I can remember, it was a computer game from the 90s, early 00s, pretty sure you played as a spy against another spy, and the game took place on kind of like how a board game would be set up, if I remember correctly. There were different games you'd have to play within it to get weapons / defense items, and you'd use those on the other person to damage them, but if they had the defensive item to block it you did no damage. So say you'd use a gas attack, it'd show a cutscene of you using the attack, then if the other guy had a gas mask it would get used to block it.
Spy vs Spy? Or am I being overly literal?
Not Spy vs Spy :( I'm assuming they were spies though, what with all the gadgets they used lol

Hello all.

I've been plagued with this game for years but I can't for the life of me remember it in any way. I remember playing it for the PS1 on one of the demo discs from the PS magazine. It was a Japanese RPG style game. The only thing from the opening cinematic I remember is a large luxurious rail car ascending a mountain, almost steam punk in fashion. The first level has you, the male protagonist, on a beach of sorts with several huts where you're training to fight and you learn the basic striking combos. I can't exactly recall what happens next but you may be sent off on a brief errand but the point is what happens next.

When you return there is a heavy fog/mist that is everywhere and you basically fight your way out as there are enemies in the fog.

Thank you in advance for taking the time to do this.

Ok. So this game was a first person Medieval times. In the beginning, I remember training against a dummy, then a dragon comes and raids a castle. I had it on PC. Please help.

Sounds like it might be Warzone 2100.

If anyone can help me and my brother figure out the name of this game we played in the 90s, I'll kiss you!

It was mid-late 90s and the main character was a tortoise/turtle that travelled around on a skateboard. We think you started out in his bedroom, went down to the kitchen, and had to find batteries for his flashlight. Then you travel towards the power station, meeting people along the way. It was an educational game teaching about electricity and stuff like that.

Thanks :D

Hey! I have also this game on my mind..can't figure out name of it. It was in sampler demo disc for windows 98, there was ffviii, fifa 98 (or 99?) and this game.. Demo starts when you are playing women, somewhere near some mansion, and hear baby crying. You climb on the window and sneak into house/mansion to discover it. When you are there you hear someones coming and hide to closet. Then you go discovering rest of the mansion. If you were going to basement, where was wine and some other stuff, there was granny and if you talk to her, game was over. One-point-click game.. and I don't know what ffviii demo was doing there because platform for it is ps1.. Sorry for my english, not my main language.

Hey everyone, looking for a game I used to play as a kid. I used to play the game in the very early 90s (so it was propably older then that). In the game you are a knight or some sort of warrior. It's an "open" arcade game which means you can go either left or right and the level route isnt "closed" to walking only at a certain direction.
Your weapons are throwing axes (could be more that I dont remember).
The most distinctive thing about this game that I remember is that you had to pick up cards (or something similiar), once you had enough cards (5 I believe) you could spin them in order and it would teleport you to a random part of the game (with some kind of an animation).
If it helps, I used to call the game "King Arthur" when i was a kid but I really doubt it is the name or even the name is similiar.

I used to play this simple little game when I was a little girl on my big box of a PC at the time, called Cats.
What I remember from it is that you can pick whatever breed of kitten that you want, I believe you can even name them too, and afterwards you take care of your kitty in a room with nothing but a shelf and a mouse hole in the wall. On the shelf, there is a bowl of food, a bowl a water, kitty toys, a spray bottle, flea spray, and cheese for the mouse. Whenever the mouse would come out of the hole, it would run around looking for cheese (if it wasn't already out) and once it found the cheese it would stop and nibble at it. And whilst that happened, the kitty that you have is prowling to catch it! It will jump on the mouse and the mouse will scream. And if you grab your cat by it's neck, it will drop the mouse and the mouse will run around before it finds its way back into its hole. It's a fun little game that I just recently had a dream about and I really would like to reconcile with those old memories! Does anyone remember what I'm talking about? I wonder if there is somewhere on the internet where I could possibly download it? Probably not though, since it was on a CD-ROM and it was downloaded to my IMB block computer and I had either Windows 95 or 98. Oh well, I decided to post about it since I miss it.

Hey guys. I need help remembering 3 different games. 2 of them you play as dogs or other animals. It's not a fetish thing i promise, just a random wave of nostalgia after i was lurking in this thread. So the first one i believe was on the Original Xbox. Maybe Called Vex or something similar. You played as a dog-ish type thing, and you had these big red power gloves. If i recall he had a nemesis who was similar to him aswell. I think it was like a adventure/platformer.

And the other one, was on an old Sega Dreamcast demo disc that had a bunch of games like dead or alive. In this one, you can play as a multitude of different animals, and each character had a special way of moving through the level, like going through holes, climbing walls, etc. It had lots of violence, and tons of different guns. Oh and i think the enemies in one particular contruction level, was big white bulldogs with construction hats.

The final one, was on the same Dreamcast demo disk, and you played as like a guy with a supersuit, that had like parachuting and gliding abilities and all this other stuff. I wanna say the name was like Spawn or something. the whole demo is just like a tutorial. Its just this big empty black room with a big fan in the middle, and you fight some npcs and stuff. There's also like a robot or cyborg or something that is talking to you which is basically just narrating what you need to do.

I know this is all really vague, but i hope you guys can get these figured out for me. Thanks guys! :D

My Friend I'm pretty sure your talking about Ghosts and goblins, and the character name is Arthur, so check it out if you want

Ok so this one will be a challenge. Around the same time of the last one I asked about, late 90s early 2000s, it is a sci-fi simulation game. you could edit terrain and other things that your aliens lived in. The morphing terrain is what really sticks out from what I remember.
