I remember playing this game back when Hewlett Packard Bell was around with Tuneland.
This game was about a fire truck that you did things with it like painting and i think there was a story with it but I can barely remember what was it about except an image in my head with a smile in front of the cute red engine.

With Windows 95 I'm pretty sure if it wasn't Windows 93.
Maybe

Putt-Putt Joins The Parade (1992)

the main character is a purple car, but there is a red fire truck which appears as a "secondary" character and it seems to be the one you talk about...you can paint things too
Nope, that wasn't it, so want to go back in time n be a kid again.

Hi, im looking for this game I played around 5 years ago.
Its a browser game. A fighting game wherein you create a fighter and watch it fight to death.
yes, you can only watch it fight. you don't control it.
Characters are in chibi form and you can find items by after matches
where you can equip to your character so it can use it (randomly) in a match.
Each item has a diff attack pattern. Like shurikens can make you attack up to 5 times per turn
but with smaller damage. While hammer gives a lot of damage and can stun.
its a simple game in the browser without quests or anything, all you do is
train your fighter and defeat the rest.

Hello everyone, There is a game i used to play on the PS1 but cant remember the name and i didnt get far enough in the game to remember allot of it but i remember the game was set in a "hercules" time frame, and i think gameplay was set at 3rd person view (the kind where you observe your character from behind him?) i remember one of the first things you do is take a rout to a villiage, along that rout is some mud that you have to go through and a monster attacks you. after that you make your way to the villiage and i think you fight a giant. all i remember is that id run around the village trying to keep my distance from the giant and try to kill it. I think the villiage had a river running through the middle of it with a bridge to cross over it and you had to find a way to get the water running again?..... I wish I had more information about the game but its extremely fuzzy.... the only other information i can remember (that probably wont help much) is that you go to this area that has a sign, you read it and decide to take the path to the village. i dont remember the start up screen or most of how the game was set up but I am mostly positive its on PS1 and its not "hercs adventures".

Hi everybody.

I have now spent the last 8 hours looking for this game, which has been the culmination of an on and off again search for many a year. I don't remember much about the game as I only rented it at a video store near my friends house for one weekend in the late 90's early 2000's. All I can remember is that it was a fantasy based game, either in an action-adventure or RPG genre. I think it was released on the Playstation (though I could be wrong).

The only thing I can remember at all was parts of the character creation (You would think character creation on the PS1 would be easy to find), you had all the usual Macguffins such as name and gender but you also received cards (fortune cards maybe, maybe something to do with a horoscope), which the game gave to you randomly (apparently) and were able to choose your characters personality, such as happy or angry, these determined how your character responded when reading signs or talking to NPC's. The one that I remember choosing was silent (which basically meant that the only thing your character ever uttered was a somewhat passive aggressive ellipses).

I vaguely remember the art style being slightly cartoonish, and one of the first areas being a forest. However, memory is not a reliable witness and I would not stand by any of this in court.

Edit: Can't remember if the characters were 2D Sprites or 3D Meshes. The camera was a Isometric style.


I appreciate any help you can provide, even if it is just another clue that I can start tracking down.

I don't even know why I want to play this game again (As I played it for a day a long time ago). I think it is because I can still remember the tortured angst of the silent character, the amount of dark emotion when he replied "...".

I am also looking for a Game.

Platform: PS1
Genre: Sci-fi (I think i remember slight RPG)

It's a quite old game, around the time of Resident Evil 1 etc. It had 3 protagonists, one blond haired guy who you played the first few minutes, and later 2 other characters, a woman with brown hair and a old man. At some point earlier you had to sneak past robots, which were humanoid in looks and i think had a red laser as a indication of their view. Also i believe that the 3 protagonists met at some kind of bar or something along the line.

Later the 3 protagonists had to work together and you could switch between the characters via a Walkie-Talkie, but i just can't remember the name.
Overblood 2 (1998)

Hi i've been looking everywhere on google for this game and still don't get it

Some of the things
-You were like a scarecrow that revealed against the black magic a wizard used to bring him to life as an evil army of things
-You could choose between red and green blood
-It was for ps2
-You could simply kick and punch or use a chainsaw too
-Some of the bosses were a crow, a "train neck", a plant thingy, the own moon, and then that evil wizard
-Landscapes: Farm, forest, ice, castle
Still nobody knows? :(

I used to play a game when I was much younger, probably late 1990s or early 2000s. It was a PC game that I think may have come as a Disc 2 to an encyclopedia or similar, but I'm not 100% sure of that. It was in the style of a board game, where you would pick a character at the start (I seem to think "swordsman" was a character) and roll the dice to move around the board. You would have to collect coloured "precious stones" by landing on specific themed squares for a specific category - much like the pie slices in trivial pursuit (e.g. in this game, the nature/science stone was green and you landed on a square next to a forest to try and win it). Once you had collected all the coloured stones, you could then go to the castle in the middle of the board (which had a black square in front of it), and IIRC try and save someone from a dragon or similar.

Some other things that I remember:
- The geography square was blue and at the top-right of the board, and the cutscreen ran up through this cave-type thing until you looked out onto the castle, when you would be asked the question.
- When it was your turn the game would say, in a deep booming voice, "[Character], Roll the Dice." Once it was rolled, it would say "Make your move."
- I think there was an observatory square for maybe arts as a category, either at the bottom or right side of the board.


If anybody knows what it is, I would be extremely grateful!

i cant think of a game has been bugging me for ages. fairly certain it was for the PS1 but may of been PS2. basically an RPG/Shooter game. Cant remember too much although the graphics were quite poor and it had levels but you could choose levels off of the menu to play or re play. i remember one was a big lab type place when you had to kill white coated men, another was in the snow but the one i remember best was a street with buildings on at night, at one end there was an underground train station and a bar type place with a snooker table in, then if you make your way across the map through some buildings there is a long street which had shooters on the roof, and a bank which you entered.

really struggling to think of the objectives of the game but thats about as much as i can remember!

i feel like i know the name, i just cant think of it, for some reason i think it has 3 worlds but that could be false.

Hi, hoping someone can help me out.

This game came out in the late 90s early 2000s I think,as I remember it having one of those old-style pc boxes with the white border. It's a 3D Adventure game where you're a bug and you have to save a princess/your love interest from other bugs, I think.

All I remember is that most of the action takes place in a garden, and in one of the levels you have to be constantly weary of a giant foot which could crush you. Sorry for the lack of info, but that's all I can remember. Thanks for listening!

OK here?s my game from before reworded and added a couple of points I remembered.

I?m looking for an Arcade game, might have being ported to a console, if it has I never seen it.
I played it on a cruise ship back in 94?, so it can?t be any newer than that (looked 90?s).

It graphically looked closer to something like Metal Slug than let?s say Wonderboy, but it might be my memory making it look prettier than it was, closer to 16 bit than 8 bit anyway. I think it was from Taito but I?m not sure.

In the game I think you play as an alien whose UFO crash landed on earth, the first stage is a jungle, there is a chance you fight against aliens and the character you control was a spaceman and not alien (he crashed on a alien planet instead). I distinctly remember that he/it was mostly white in color (with a bit of red maybe) and rode a hoverboard either at some point at the start or all the way through. What is mostly striking in my memory is that the character's head was either round, or an eyeball, what I definitely remember is that at some point, maybe as a special attack a huge eyeball spins with some electricity around it at the center of the screen.

I?ve been trying to find it since then, but never saw it in other Arcades. I tried researching for it online and no luck. If nobody here can help me I?m going to try going through the Taito?s Arcade library, so I can at least rule out that it was from them. Thanks for looking into it.
Re-posting my game for the last time. I've been looking for this game for 20 years now, I hoped this thread would have helped but looks like I got a lot of research in my future. Still, thanks to anyone who looked in to it.

I hope someone can help me out with this! I've been trying to remember the name of this game for years now.

Console: Sega Genesis
Genre: Fighting Game

The only characters I remember from this game are a guy in blue with a white wolf that you could have jump onto the screen and attack for you, and a girl in red that had a similar ability but with a giant bird that looked like a hawk. Those were the only two characters I ever used, and I didn't play the game often enough to remember many other details aside from one of the levels being an underground fight club looking scene with nothing but spectators for the background. I wish I could remember more, but that's all I've got! I'm hoping the characters are unique-ish enough to help! Much appreciated, anyone :)

Can you guys help me with this game...?
I used to play it on my windows 98. I can't remember much about it but you could travel to different locations around the world and you had to find a guy and put him in prison. that's pretty much all i can remember about it.

It'd be great to find this game as it was one of my favourites

Alright, I hope someone can help me, I've been looking for these two games and never found them, not even a single written line.

The first one is a futuristic racing game where you pilot some sort of cristal like, or at least I believe so, hover bikes. Not much to say other than most of the bikes had different color schemes, it's a racing game with a futuristic theme, you can't get more simple than that. Also, most of the racing tracks were on space stations and such.

The second one is a platforming game where you play as a red squirrel that collected nuts I believe, it had bad 3D graphics, horrendous controls and terrible camera, making it really damn hard. You started in a small platform on the ocean, and had to jump to the other platforms in front of you until you reached a bigger island that had a tower in which you had to reach the top. That's the best I could ever go because of how hard the game was due to the camera and the controls.

Played both on PC.

Much appreciated to anyone who can give me the name of those games.
