Old Games you remember playing but can't remember the name of.

[DONUTJE]

Hello all,

I'm looking for a game for over 4 years and still haven't found it. It's about a puzzle/adventure game where you had to solve puzzles and do things to get like a colored snake for each puzzle. You had like different colours of snakes. Purple, green, red and yellow i thought. (i think four of each snake, not sure) If you found and solved all the puzzles the game was over. It was not a game where you was in like a character. I really hope you can help me with it, i know its accurate information but alright.

Thanks

Hey guys! I was hoping you could help me with this one.

I'm pretty sure it was made after 2000, but I could be wrong.

It was about a girl with pink hair (I think) and I forgot why, but she got sent into a town to do something until she became a lady? Hahaha I don't know if that was actually why.

The beginning of the game required you to choose a certain zodiac or season or something, and depending on which one you chose she would have more charm or more intelligence, etc.

It was one of those games that was like "Day 1" and you had a certain amount of energy before you had to go to sleep.

Some activities she could do was be a cashier, a maid, lift boxes and whatnot in order to make money.

I'm pretty sure there was also a dungeon aspect of the game, and I think she could also buy accessories.

I don't remember the goal, but there were things like "Winter Festival in 20 days" and you had to get your charm or intellect up so you could win contests or something, and every time I played it would be different because things happened to her depending on which zodiac or season you chose. And sometimes there would be events where she would meet people that would affect her story line later on.

It was a point and click game, but still pretty entertaining especially since it was different every time.

I also think it was only downloadable, but it wasn't space-eating at all.
I only played a demo version of it because when I was 12 I didn't have that kind of money on me haha.

Hope some of you here know what I'm talking about.

Thanks guys!

So, I don't remember a whole lot about the game, but hopefully this is enough. It was from the Windows 95-98 days. You would pick up a junk car and try to fix it up. You could go to a junkyard and buy new parts for it. When you worked on it, you had control over pretty much everything. You even had to take off nuts and bolts yourself. If you tried to take off a pulley before a belt, it wouldn't let you. The mechanics of the engines in the game were completely accurate to a real life car. You could also change things like the headlights, spoiler, quarter panels, paint, etc. I think the parts you got from the junkyard were just like in real life- a different color piece than your car actually was. If anyone could help me figure out what game this is, I would be so happy.

I think that might be Gearhead Garage. It was made by Snap-On Tools, yes, the tool company. I loved that game so much back then. http://www.gearheadgarage.com/

I have one for the ps1 or ps2. It was a desert racing game. I don't remember much about it. It was a pretty big map, but I just played like a free ride mode. I never played a mission or campaign. I just remember most of it was like desertish. Hope anyone can help me, thanks.

God, I just got slapped in the face with one of those seriously obscure, vaulted memories. I believe it was a PC game that I never owned, but only played on computers in...school, perhaps? Maybe in the library or on some adult's PC. Anyway, all I can recall is that it was a game about a big house, probably a haunted mansion, that you had to explore...I'm thinking adventure game, MAYBE point and click. I seem to remember one outdoor section with a lot of stars in the sky.

This is some frustrating shit, man.

 

[Darkwolf]

I'm going to try and repost this again, in the hopes that maybe someone here can help me.
I cant for the life of me remember the title of the game, and I'v been looking for it for a very long time.

Description of the game to the best of my ability.

I dont remember any specifics like company or release year, what I do remember is that it was a PC game

If I were to guess I could only give a timeframe, around 1990-2000, plus/minus a few years
I am fairly certain it was a windows game, not DOS, which could mean Win 95 or 98, but I cannot be completely sure.

It was a side scroller type of game, but not a fixed direction like most such games, instead its more of a fixed area where you can fly around and attach air and ground targets, and I think you can choose loadout as well, and that you take off from a base of some sort.

You could choose aircrafts among most modern jet fighters like Harrier Jump Jet, F14, etc.
The purpose is to attack enemy installations or bases, possibly aircraft too, but not sure

One thing that frustrated me was that as far as I understood I was supposed to be able to choose aircraft between missions, but somehow it never worked for me, I was only able to swap aircraft and certain intervals or if I lost the one I was flying.

Its not a flight simulator or a game in the Janes series of games.

Thats about all I can remember of it.

Heres the game description for me. The time frame is very early 90's. It was a military domination type of war game, kind of like the game risk. you had ground fighters, tanks, air fighter planes and possibly. as you moved across the board in a hexagon shaped icon you could choose to attack another pieces on the board if you were next to them. in the fight you could attack, run, or some other options i cannot remember. Does this sound familiar to anybody or can anybody think of what this was.

So after searching for the last 3 hours to find this game I have found out that there are about 1 billion games just like this and im lookin for a needle in a haystack! the one difference I've found that I can remember is that when you there was an attack sequence, it happend in its own screen. It was seperate from the overview of the board.the game was point based, turn style (like RPG). I know this is a hard one but im not giving up!!!

Hi all, I remember playing 90s games on my PC. Its about plane shooter (arcade type). It has 3D graphic. First we choose 4 jet (I remember one of the is F-16) and we fight through some level. There's a boss in every level. And the last level was on space, the setting of the stage more or less looks like death star on star wars tome.

Thanks before for the help

Sounds a lot like Aero Fighters Assault, you could choose between 4 planes with different abilities, one was an F16, and every level had a boss. I liked it a lot back in the day.

Not sure if it's for PC though, I think it's Nintendo 64 only.

I'm so sorry but it's not what I meant. This game has a better graphic. And doesn't have a character or story on it. You just choose, then fire with missiles and Gatling gun, fight boss through levels and the end. Enter your name on high score (just 3 letter - arcade high score style).

Please helpppppp

i'm looking for a game i played when i was younger. i cannot remember how the controlled character looked besides the village people i had to rescue. they resembled cute, fluffy little gizmo the gremlin characters. i believe they were grey in color. they lived in huts. throughout each stage, you had to kill the people who were trying to take over these "gremlins" homeland. through each part, there were doors that would unlock or you had to unlock to go further into the game. the game also had fishing for lollygagging. i believe it was a shooting / rpg game. it may have had multi-player outside of the storyline. just for kills & fun. i'm hoping that was part of the game because i remember playing with my brother and it was the greatest. i honestly cannot remember, but my soul needs to know what this game is. it may have been on playstation, but i'm not sure. someone please help me, omg.

Hey, I'm trying to remember a game i played during the world cup of Korea/Japan in 2002. I had a demo version of it. It was a 2D game and it had quite nice cartoon/anime-like graphics. It was something like space impact. You could be a red demon(and other characters I can't remember) and you could play multiplayer on the same pc. You were shooting monsters, you could take upgrades and have more powerful bullets and things like that. I remember it was "promoting" or sponsoring/sponsored by the world cup because it said something about Korea/Japan World Cup.

 

[userasda]

I have another one. A game on NES or SNES, i was playing it around 1995-96. You looked like megaman but i looked and couldn't find it. In one level. there were some fountains you could jump there and could step on the water. As the water was rising and falling, you were too. There was a boss that was throwing some black bombs or tires from his mouth(?) not sure. The stage was moving like you were running along the boss. You were on the left and the boss on the right. You were shooting something at him, megaman style, but not sure exactly. Help please

 

[userasda]

Another game on ps1 or pc. You were a soldier, killing other soldier. There was a flamethrower with 3 levels of it? Red Green and Blue as the strongest fire?
Can't remember much.

 

[indoom]

This game, is pretty much like everyone is describing, but they say DX ball, It's not, it had a lava type brick ect ect, But when i look at DX ball and dx ball 2, its deff not it, it had little pill upgrades, some for it to stick to the paddle, some would make it go slow, or ignored durability on blocks. Some would spawn more than one and some made it super fast, There was also the option to create your own level and all the blocks appeared on a side bar.
THIS IS NOT DX BALL OR DX BALL 2, They look the same though

Game 2 THIS one is impossible tof ind
I remember you play as kinda a ball type character, Theres eyes ect, the first level you see a red guy with a gun, as soon as you walk in his path he turns around to shoot you, it was a gritty looking game, It reminded me alot of pacman, but you didnt wobble around or get chased by ghost, THIS GAME has haunted me for YEARS. there may or may not have been a level with a cabin with blood in it.

Both were pc games.

 

[Shim3d]

A DOS/Windows 95 Shareware game called ARENA. Not the Elder Scrolls just ARENA. It was a text-based game. If anyone knows where I can find it? I think it's some obscure bedroom developed game, it was on my second hand Windows 95 PC when I got it.

Also I have faint memories of I think maybe a PC adventure game? It may have been pirate themed and the only part I remember is where you get your eyes slashed and are blind. (or you may just be blindfolded, it was 10+ years ago now my memory's faded.)
Thank you anyone.

 

[Pink Gregory]

Hi Guys,

Not sure if you can help.

My dad had a Compaq Laptop about 15 years ago, it was either Windows 95 or 98. It had a 2 player game on it where both players would try to kill the other using traps.

One of the types of traps included was a noose trap where you would be hung if you stepped on it.

The players went up and down ladders to get to different platforms.

There were lots of other types of traps but I can't remember them.

Any help would be massively appreciated...

Wild stab in the dark...

[Planeforger]

I have a very vague memory of a game that I would love if someone could help me identify. Sadly, I don't have many details. I played it with my Grandpa sometime in the early to mid nineties. All I remember is being inside of some kind of library ish building? Maybe? The only thing that really stands out is when it was "game over," someone/something would drag a woman (I think) off screen.

And that's all I got.

Alone in the Dark?
