I used to play this learning game on a super old computer along with the '81 version of Mouse Trap, and I think it was on a floppy disk. (I believe I was playing this around 2000-2005) I think it is called Dino something but can't figure it out. The main figure of the game was either a green or reddish t-rex in a graduation cap and I believe glasses. I think I recall him claiming to be a librarian, too. There were multiple mini games such as mazes and I think math and "word munching" games. I know Mr t-rex has a name like Max or something, but I don't remember. Please help me find one of my favourite childhood games.

Okay, so this is a game I used to play when I was a kid. Maybe 7 years ago. It was a CD-ROM. The game's setting was a school, and the host avatar thing was a dog (possibly a wiener dog) wearing a red sweater. It was an interactive learning game. You could read books in the classroom. One was about vegemite. You could go to the playground and play marbles, make lunches in the cafeteria, and bake desserts and such in another place. The name K Start keeps coming to mind, but that isn't it. Please help me if you can; it's driving me crazy!

I know this game! It was a great learning game!!! I believe you're on the right track with K Start, but I believe it was K-1 something. I could swear it was out there with other grade games too by scholastic. But don't quote me on it being scholastic... I can literally visualize the covers but can't remember the words on it. My two brothers and I had like 3 or 4 of the disks of different grade levels.

Hi guys, I wonder if you can help me. I a looking for a cop rpg, basically you play as a cop who has to save a girl, the only thing I remember is the last scene which is somewhere in police station I think, the girl is tied to a chair in the middle of the room and you have to eliminate all cops before you can untie and save her.
I played the game long time ago on an arcade machine so I am not sure what system it was made for...

Thanks for any suggestions!

Anyone?

Hey, guys, hope you can help me out.
It`s an old arcade game (played it around the `95). Either fighting or side-scrolling fighter (probably the second one) and one of the main characters has a giagantic frog that helps him. Don`t know why but I also think there were bubbles that the frog made. I think one of the characters breathed fire. And the frog guy used some sort of stick as a weapon. Can`t find it anywhere and it`s driving me nuts.
cheers

Hey!

I'm new here, but seeing as how I found this forum I decided to ask about a game that I can't remember it's name.

Here are the details:

It's was an older PC game(I'd say the time era was 2000 or later on, but I could be wrong) that was about driving a military vehicles, starting with similar to Humvee in 3rd person view(not sure if you could switch to 1st person) while aiming and shooting the weapons with your mouse. In the later missions you gained access to other vehicles such as tanks that would aid you.

I remember that in the first mission you had to destroy some sort of an enemy base/prison camp. You and your superior officer each in your own vehicle drove close to the base, but your officer got spotted and killed and you had to complete the mission all by yourself. It was rather hard because of all the defensive turrets that fired upon you as soon as they gained sight of you.

The second or third(I don't remember exactly) mission was in a large highway tunnel with a huge traffic jam inside. You started at one side of the tunnel and had to make your way to the other side of the tunnel where a few of the enemy vehicles were that you had to destroy. In order to get there you either had to blow up or push civilian vehicles out of the way or use the railway tunnel that was on the side of the highway, but you had to be careful otherwise you could get destroyed by the passing train, so you had to time it precisely.

In one of the last missions you had to destroy some of enemy radar stations/beacons in some mountains and here you had other vehicles you could use, such as tanks. In order to switch to the tank your main vehicle either had to be destroyed or there was a specific key that you pressed. This mission was really hard because enemy had cloaked/stealth tanks that were really armored and could destroy your jeep in one hit.

So if anyone knows the title of the game please post it here, I'd love to play this game again and you'd really help me out.

Thank you for taking your time and reading!

I am looking for a game that stars with a cutt scene of a girl singing in a cathedral and at the same time there is a guy fighting to get to the cathedral. It switches back and forth between the girl and the guy, without breaking her song, until he gets there. Once he shows up that is when all hell breaks loose. Does this sound familiar to anyone? I believe it was a ps2 game, but I could be wrong.

BUMP please help out. No its not DMC3 I played it before the PS3

I'm trying to track down an ancient memory! If anybody has an idea that would be amazing! It's an old PC game from early to mid 90's. It came in the old box style, 5.25" floopy discs. I remember walking around different lands, vaguely I recall that you could go through a henge to access them? You were a mage, fixed iso view. There was a book that came with it with a map of the worlds. I lost the original box/book in a house fire. My PC was never that great back then and I recall it moved at a crawling pace so never got far enough to remember much else. Any ideas are greeted with open arms! I have dreams of finding this and playing it again!

 

[LordCasselstone]

thank you very much,I think it is the one, send me a message about how can I give you the money

Not necessary mate, just glad I could help.

Hey guys, I also have one of these "lost" games that I have been looking for all my life. I played it about 6 years ago, and it was a game from a website; I don't think there was a disk or download of the game. It was free and had to do with turn based strategy. I remember the first level you were this one human with I believe this hammer. There are always 2 or 3 other factions - the humans (which could be friends or enemies), the spiders, and i believe one other group that I don't remember, possibly a faction of scorpions. You can always loot and pick up other people's weapons when their dead, and there are like action points (you can only do so many moves in a turn). Anyway, all three factions fight each other so it's not an everyone vs. you situation, and each side has a turn where they move and attack. The camera was like a bird's eye view and the movement was similar to hexes. I also remember that in some missions you would fight with some human teammates for various reasons (I actually remember one of these is because you a greatly outnumbered with the spiders and you agree to fight together to kill the spiders and then attack each other), but if you were to attack your teammates (which you can do), they turn to enemies and would attack you. I don't remember much more, but the items had something special, like they might be able to craft or something. However, there is no hero upgrades and for the most part it's a role playing game. I remember getting frustrated a lot because it would get hard, so I believe the hitting has to do with luck or chance, meaning you can miss hits and deal no damage.
Please help me find this game, if you do I would be very grateful. As I said, it was a free game off of some website, so it probably won't be any one with a disk.
Thank you so much.

Here's (what I think is) a tough one:

It's a point-and-click game that starts in the woods next to a shack. Inside the shack is a moth flapping around a candle, and when you click it, it flies into the flame. The color pallet is mostly browns and grays, and the style is photographic (or at least, attempted photographic). There's also something about bug catching, but I might be mistaken, and I think there is an inventory of some kind. I think you play as a runaway child or something like that.

I played this game when I was a kid, and I'm 22, so this would be published around 2000-ish.

Alright so I remember playing a game years ago on PC with some-what 8bit graphics, and I really liked it. For about 2 years now I've been trying to find this game but I've had no luck.
It was an RPG. There are 5 friends in the starting of the game, a blond haired sword fighting man, his green haired elf girlfriend, another red-haired girl, another man I can't really recall, and a green slime/sludge creature which is a sidekick/pet of the swordfighter.

These friends start out together and fight enemies together but then we reach a point in the game where they all have to go their separate ways, so we have to choose any one character to proceed with the game.
The swordfighter goes his separate way to take swordifighting training, and his sludge pet goes with him. The elf, and the unknown man, not too sure. The red-haired woman goes her separate way to train herself with magic and spells and such. Now there comes a time in the story where the elf girl misses her swordfighter boyfriend and leaves everything behind to re-unite with him. Once they're back together, the couple spends more time with each other and the sludge pet feels left out, so the sludge runs away and goes his separate path. There was one such quest for the sludge's story where it has to fight these brown earth monsters called Golems and retrieve a certain amount of Golem heads in order to complete the quest.

This is all I remember, and I was never able to complete the storyline because my PC was formatted years ago.

Please help me out.

Bump..
Any help would be much appreciated, I really, really want to find this game..

Double bump..

I find it hard to believe that nobody has a clue on what this game might be. C'mon people, this is really, really important to me and I need to find out what it was called...

Anyone?

Hi guys, I've got a game that's been on my mind for quite some time now and can't, for the life of me, remember it's name. It was a RPG I played on my PC about 7-8 years ago, although it might be older, where you could choose between 3 characters, I think, kind of like the first Diablo, but it was set in a post-apocalyptic future and a key clue I can remember was that in your inventory you didn't exchange armor parts but limbs, arms, legs shoulders gave different bonuses and changed your character's appearance. Any ideas? I really want to play it again

 

[ChickenTamer]

My Brother remembers playing this game but I don't, but this is what I know, it is an old pc top down shooter where you are shooting cats and dogs and I guess other things as well, he also said it "might" be a top down space shooter, and he also said you "might" play as the cats and dogs, any help would be appreciated.

Hi guys. Looking for what seems to be an obscure game since no one on my Facebook friends list can figure out what game it is.

I remember playing it maybe around '97 or earlier? It was a PC game that seemed to be puzzle based, as in you walked through hallways (first person view) to collect items, but these items were behind sliding doors (can't remember what the items were). These sliding doors slid only if you touched/threw something at the triggers, which were sometimes behind other sliding doors. It was rather poorly made, albeit fun when I was young. I think it was renaissance/medieval based, but the game didn't really focus on that, just for the decor and whatnot. I remember there were what seemed to be giant blobby/cube people that were pretty pixelated, and perhaps a queen and jester of these people. It featured classical music in the background, Minuet in G Major by Telemann being the one that really sticks out in my mind. It may have been the only music in the game, thus why it got stuck in my head lol

I really appreciate the help. It may have been a crappily made game, but I desperately want to find it again since it was a part of my childhood!

I'm lookin for a ps2 game that i played on a demo disk. It had mechs and in one scene a kid watches his friends get squished by a mech I think. The game is the kid getting revenge I think and uses a mech suit to destroy robots. I think another demo on the same demo disk that the game I'm talking about is Ico. I believe it's a Jampack
