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..
Please help, it's almost a month since I've come to this thread for assistance but nobody at all seems to know of the existence of this game..
It's really important to me, please help whenever possible

Hi again please help me with this :0
I played this game like 8-9 years ago so there's not much detail
old pc game, wild west themed
you play a girl with twin braids and a cowboy hat
there's and old burnt down bus which you can enter
an underground room with pigs playing some card game in it (i'm guessing it was poker)
you can get the pigs angry and they start throwing bottles and shoes at you
and that's pretty much it, I would be so grateful if you could help me find it because I've been looking for it for a long time now ;3;;))/
Could it have been Wild Arms 3, perhaps? I don't remember the pigs or the bus, but the ginger braids and cowboy hat definitely match the description.
That's not it but thanks anyways :DD

Hello,

I am looking for a game I saw at a friends house around 93-94 or 95. what i remember:

For PC
You played as some sort of agent, I think only controling one agent at a time in a isometric view. The view was more in zoomed then for example syndicate.
You started outside, there were small small rivers and I think houses, I think you started in a vehicle but could exit it.
Before you could do ANYTHING you had to send your agent to some sort of school and learn several skills before it let you go out and actually play, like language, and I think weapon skills.
The game was "modern" not taking place in a cyberpunk future or so, maybe in like 1993s view of 2020.

It's not:

Syndicate
Xcom
Jagged alliance
Shadowrun

I apologize for any spelling and grammatical error and appreciate any help.

Hello,

Can't remember the name of the game I played on arcade machine in late 1980s / early 1990s.

It was in 2-D, without any scrolling, with evenly spaced horizontal lines (floors) made of something like a cake (don't remember very well).

The main character was running left and right on the top floor, making sections of the floor collapse once he ran over them, and when section of the floor collapsed - it could kill some crawlers on the levels below.

I remember it really vaguely, but would be great if someone could give some pointers of what could this game (or arcade machine) be.
Thanks!

I've got two games I need help with.

The first might be near impossible to find. It was only a demo on a PC gamer disc (or similar demo disc) back in the mid 90s. It was a board game type racing game. It was extremely charming and each car you chose had a driver with very quirky and charming persona. It was cartoon-y in the spirit of a Wacky Racers but far less crazy personas and vehicles. The maps you could play on may have been somewhat based on actually geographical locations. I think each time you stopped somewhere it might have triggered a mini-game or cut-scene animation. My memory of the game play is poor but the charm of it has stuck with me.

The second game is a PS1 Turn-based JRPG. I played this in the late -90s. Very much like Final Fantasy tactics. The main thing that makes it stand out to me is the fact that each class had a branching class tree and once an upgrade became available you could upgrade mid-battle. I've not played Tactics Ogre but screen shots of it make me wonder if that could be it - can you upgrade character classes in that mid-battle?

Not much to go by so I will be amazed if anyone recognises either. I've a terrible memory by the way.

Hey there!
I'm trying to remember some games for a while now, but i don't have a clue where or how to find them. I was playing them somewhere around years 2000 - 2003 ...
1. You were a Jolly Jester, i think it was a 2D platform game and i only remember a few scenes at some castle, i think you were trying to find a key to enter the castle and than there were some spiral stairs or something with purple creatures (i guess ...). And that's all. :D
2. It was a multiplayer game, i remember i always played it with my mom. I'm not sure but i think you played it with a boat, and there were two teams - red and blue. The main goal was to collect flags, either blue or red, before your opponent collected them. It was a simple graphic game, and i believe it was in some kind of a labyrinth on water?

I hope you can help me with these! :)

Hey guys , I am trying to find an old fps where you are a soldier and somehow you get down somewhere with an elevator and a monster/vampire/zombie walking on 4 feet bites you and you become one of them . From that point you see everything in a very bright white .

Hey everyone.

I'm looking for an old PC game, I'm going to say from the mid 90s. It was an adventure game, mostly puzzle based but with a rudimentary combat system. It has two storylines each with a different main character, one was a woman and one was a lizardman with an axe.
I can't remember a lot of the details from the game, like most of the puzzles, but I do remember that towards the end of the lizardman's storyline one of the puzzles you had to change a sign in a shop that said something like 'We don't do refunds because a punch in the mouth often offends' to a different sign so you could refund something to get an asbestos body suit so you could go into a volcano for some reason...
It was fairly comedic, full of bad jokes and I think the name was some sort of pun.
I know it's not a lot to go on but I've been digging through my drawers of old games and this is one of the few that I don't still own.

**SOLVED**

I read back a few more pages to see if I could help anyone else and by pure coincidence someone mentioned it. I was sure it had Kingdom in the title and there it is; Kingdom O'Magic. :D

Hello, I am currently trying to remember the name of a old pc game that I use to play a few years back, I remembering it being first person hack and slash style game, I don't think you were able to cast any spells and it was all melee, it was a dungeon type game and there is a few levels I remember playing, one of them was like an old castle where the fog was really thick and you kept being shot at by arrows, the other was in a place that took place in the mountains and you had to cross a bridge over a huge drop to get there and there was enemies who would just out of the water to try and attack you, another level I remember was somewhere in a plains like area and it involved ruins and possibly runes to open up a dungeon, towards where I stopped playing there was this really hard boss you had to kill in a dungeon type area with a lot of torches on the walls and soon after you beat him you were taken to another level where there were mine carts, I am uncertain as to if it was a first person or third person game but this game is relitively old and I do remember only being able to use melee type weapons.

hey guys, not sure if anyone else ever played this game but i remember it was a free game online that i played the hell out of btw 2007 and 2008 or so...i've been trying like crazy to remember it and have googled about a billion different names but can't find it. it was this weird little puzzle/strategy game where you have monsters that roll around and you have to guide them into barrels (that you turn and point into whatever direction) that shoot them toward an exit? i know it sounds stupid but i was absolutely hooked on the thing....i'm pretty sure 'monster' was somewhere in the name and i keep thinking of monster mash but i'm pretty positive that's incorrect.

Alright, this is a really old game, remember playing it in the 2000-2003ish, but it may be way older than that.
i'll try and give the best description i can.

it was a 2D side-scrolling platformer game, really simple graphics. you controlled a guy somewhat resembling a tin soldier, you had no weapons and i can't remember if there were enemies there. most levels (as i remember them) were in a castle. the music was mostly classical, the one i remember best is Dance of the Knights by Prokofiev. i don't remember the objective of the game.

i'm really sorry but this is all i remember.

Hi, i have played a pc game for years ago, but i cannot remember its name. Jeg can remember that you are an alien, its like a rat human. I think the game is on the space, but not sure. I know that you collect gold when you go close to it. And i can remember that you get a little robot friend to assist you later in the game.

The alien rat human is similar to the wildstar figure:
