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.
Maybe:

Monster Ball (2009)

but I'm veeeery far from sure..

There is this old PC game that is very similar to the Carmen Santiago games. Essentially you have to travel around the world as a detective trying to solve a mystery. You travel around on a plane and you need to find gas/petrol for the plane frequently. It was in black and white, with a bit of pink/blue (like a DOS style game). I played it when I was a child at school and I believe it was meant to be educational, teaching you about geography and/or history, but I'm not too sure. Hope you guys can help me out!

Hello,

I am desperately trying to look for the name of a Japanese game around mid 1990 for PlayStation One. It can be teamed up with 2 players (maybe more but I don't remember). It involves a lot of robot (Various Gundams maybe? I think you can even choose which to use). It is scroll style game, in which you fight some enemy and you kill them and keep moving to the right of the screen or left and progress, and the dimension of the game is 2.5D. You can level up (I think) and you can spend money earned (from killing enemy maybe?) to buy weapon (like swords (light saber?) and guns) /armor/ and shields upgrade. I remember there was a shield that's all directional protection so you just hit that one button to guard and any attack from any direction will be reduced or completely negated in damage. Anyone know what this is? Thank you!

Looking for a PS2 game i believe. There was 2 armies if i remember right. It was futuristic One had troops that were white and blue and the other was black and red. You got to play as a robot tank i think with 4 legs. like a spider tank. I believe you could also fly and shoot lasers. The foot soldiers would fight too. You just fought to dominate the battlefield. I cannot find or remember the name of the game to save my life. Any help or questions please reply or message me.

Can you give a year as time index and was it an kind of Point and Click adventure or a real RPG?
I highly appreciate the fact that someone stood up to assist me.

Well, I wasn't very old when I played that game, I played it a few years ago, maybe 6-7 years ago or so. The game might've released even before that, I'm not sure.
Other than the usual arrow-key movement, more like a point and click adventure as far as I'm aware. Whenever a fight or battle took place in the game, it was similar to that of pokemon - fight as a team, click on the option as to what move you will make next to defeat your opponent, and then it's their turn.

Let me try to re-construct my post with all that's left of the memory I have of this game. It might not be completely correct, but it will be accurate:

Five main characters, all of them have their stories:
Character 1 - Blond haired man, fighter, sort of a main character. Might use swords. Has a green slime pet/sidekick that's one of the 5 characters.
Character 2 - Green haired elf girl. Girlfriend of Character 1.
Character 3 - Red haired girl, wizard powers.
Character 4 - Another man, I think his hair was brown, don't have much memory of him.
Character 5 - Slime creature pet of Character 1. It had no face, it was just a green slime but it could talk...

Whatever I can remember of the starting of the story:
Character 1, 3, 4, 5 start out together, 2 isn't with them yet. I think we mostly play as Character 1 in the beginning. They are to travel to some place and then separate. They travel in some old-style caravans. They stop at some forest for the night during their journey and set out a temporary camp. Character 1 hears some sounds in the woods, and he decides to gather his friends to check it out. Eventually, they fight some monsters, and Character 1, 3, 4, 5 reach the source of the sound: Character 2. Character 2 was trapped, and they had to fight some boss monster to set her free, and they succeed in doing so.
Once they complete their journey, each of them had to separate to go in their own paths, to complete their own careers.


Now it comes to a character selection screen and we can choose which individual character's story we want to continue with. We can always save the game, start a new game and choose a different character if we want to. The progress of each character will be saved and can be loaded from the main screen to continue with.
Here's all I remember from their individual stories:
Character 1 - Since Character 5 is his pet, they go together, dividing from their friends. Character 1 was a fighter, and went his separate path to join some sort of fighting academy where he got training and had to do friendly battles with other higher members in that academy to level up.
Character 2 - I don't remember much. Eventually she left her family behind and ran away from home, hoping to find her boyfriend. She eventually found him, and stayed in his home.
Character 3 - Not much memory of her, but she was getting magically trained to improve her spells and such.
Character 4 - Absolutely no memory of him, I'm not sure why.
Character 5 - This slime creature assisted character 1 most of the time, and stayed at his home alone when he went to his training academy. The slime felt lonely, and once character 2 came back and re-united with character 1, C1 and C2 started to unknowingly ignore the slime C5. C5 ended up leaving their home, and went back to the land where there were more slimes like him, it was like his home country. There, there were green slimes like him, and some orange slimes. They lived in hut homes. And their enemy were brown earth monsters made of rocky bodies called Golems. The Golems were putting the lives of the slime creatures in danger, and eventually Character 5 received a quest to kill (I think 40) 40 Golems and bring their heads back in order to receive a reward that Character 5 needed for something I cannot remember. The Golems were large in comparison to the size of the slimes.


I can't remember the names of any of the characters. I think Character 5's name started with the letter G.

This is all I can remember. I've spent years trying to find this game so that I can complete it's story. My last and only hope was this thread to help me find it, and I'm patiently waiting for someone to assist me. Thank you if you've tried, and I hope my description that I provided was good enough.

I'm trying to remember the name of an old point and click adventure game. It was on the mac in the early 90's I think. U were a kid and you start in a history museum. You have a robot to help you solve the puzzles. One puzzle involves getting an airplane wing to fly properly. Does anyone know the name of this game?

I can't remember the name of a game I used to love. I played it in the 90's. It was about a young boy who goes on an adventure with his father and others. There were different levels/chapters to his adventures and in each one you'd have to solve a puzzle/win some game. At one point in the story the boy and his father are in India and the dad touches a cow and they get put into prison. At another point in the game the group was captured by pirates and you have to win the pirate game where you have a birds eye view of a maze and each pirate is represented by a colored ball and you have to get each colored ball into the similarly colored door. The final game/level occurs in Japan or China and consists of a chess game at night or something similar. Thank you for any suggestions or help!! :)

Hey guys, I'm looking for this game I played way back in the early 2000s. I'm not sure if it was late 90s or early 2000s though.

It was this 3D spaceship/plane game set in a city on earth. It's very fuzzy in my mind, but you flew around and shot other ships and structures. It took place at night. It was for PC. It was not set in space. They may or may not have been aliens. It was pretty open world. I'm pretty sure it came out at or after 1996 because I remember playing Wipeout 2097 at the time.

Alright, here goes my desperate try.

The game I'm looking for was about you in a house, you drove a plane, it was green, there was this really small runway and you start going around the house, there were enemy forces too that you had to shoot. In order to get to another room you had to look for a key or turn the lights off or something like that, if you get stuck or hit a wall you explode. I only had the demo version of that game. HALP!

Oh my god YES! Thank you, finally!
How did you do it? I've struggled for years and you found it rather easily, thank you so much
