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

[egrover]

Hi guys I got one for you to hopefully help me with.

Okay it was a pretty simple game. it had...

-4 elfs of a different color in each of the four corners. red, blue, green and pink
-bunch of colored blocks in the middle same colors as the elfs.
-you can only push the color block that is the same color as your elf.
-you get points for running over the other color blocks by pushing yours.
-once you run over all the other elfs with a block you win that round.
-the red elfs names was Boris don't remember the others.
-older game came in one of those cd packs that had a bunch of different games on them I believe.
-I think they were elves maybe they were little wizards or something.
-couple of rounds till points from each round add up to a certain amount.

Any more details needed I can try to answer just ask. I can picture it in my head and everything but just cant think of the name or find it.

Hey guys, help me to find this out:
(I'm not english, so I'll try to do my best as I write this down)

-the game was something like dungeon-based, but not really: I mean, there were dungeons, there were monsters, but there were also cities and stuff like this
-I remember a dungeon: at first you had to take an elevator (it looked like something aztec, made of bricks if I remember well), then you had to go through a long and dark corridor in what looked like a cave to me; there were monsters similar to spiders, with a lot of bright eyes on the top of them; you would find a lot of crossroads while you were walking: based on which road you chose, the monsters changed and you could meet bigger ones, for example, or of other species
-I also remember a boss fight: you were in a city, the roads were all made of bricks, then you had go to an alley in the right-side of the screen and then you were near train tracks. You had to go downstairs for a little bit to reach the tracks, the boss was between them. He had (but I'm not really sure) a big hat and he used to carry a guitar on his back (or to play it), it was something like flamenco/gypsy boss, it remembers me a lot of spanish stuff
-it had third person view, but the camera was stuck on the top, so something between third person and isometric view
-the feeling was like Dark Souls/ICO, you are an alone wanderer, everything is basically desert, monsters, bosses and cool stuff

I don't remember anything else, please help me out and sorry for the language, it's been 15 years of researching and still nothing!
I don't even know if this game really exists or if I imagined everything only in my mind, I was a kid when I played it (like 5 or 6 years old), help me out!

Hi,

I was talking to a friend a few minutes ago who is into the same type of games as I am, and I'm trying to tell him of a game that I don't remember the name of, and by description alone the game doesn't ring any bells to my friend. I even googled this but couldn't find anything about this old game (it was released in the 90s).

So, anybody here that can help me remember it? Here's all I remember about this game: it was a combat/fighting type of game (the genre of Mortal Kombat, Street Fighter, etc.), and I think (not sure, but I think) it even had the word "fighter" in it somewhere (again, I'm not sure about this, but it could be true).

Also, what really impressed me at that time was the scenarios in which the fights took place. Again, I might be wrong but if I'm not then absolutely ALL scenarios were being fought in a 3D glass cube, or something like that. I'm not sure that 3D technology was available in the 90s, but if it wasn't, then let me tell you that the game did look like 3D cause that glass cube could be moved 3D whenever opponents were smashed to its sides. At some point (depending on the impact of the hits) the cube would break and the 2 opponents would fight on a black screen (like in a vacuum or something) since there was no cube anymore. I also remember that at that time I had a really powerful computer, and yet, this game would crash frequently (sometimes wouldn't even load) because of its resource intensive requirements (which is why I'm inclined to say it was 3D, although my friend swears that there was no 3D technology at that time).

So yeah, if anyone has played this game before and knows what I'm talking about please tell me what name it has. It drives me insane. I've been thinking about this game for the last 12-13 hours and I can't get it out of my head. Moreover, I want to try and find it again to see if I can still play it on today's modern computers. I liked that game a lot, but I couldn't enjoy it fully because of the constant crashes.

It was called "super fight 2", "super virtual fighter 2", "super street fighter 2", or something like that. I'm not sure that it had a number at the end, but I am sure that it had either the word "fighter", or "super" somewhere in it. Also, there were no Street Fighter characters in it (or at least I don't remember of any), so it might not have anything to do with street fighter. But... I can't figure out what the freakin game was called.

So yeah... I hope I can get this out of my head soon cause it depletes me of energy trying to figure out its bloody name

Trying to remember an old game about cars... It was like you were in country side.. sometimes there were races. i remember there was one fat guy. the game is from like 2010 or so.. its not a simulator or anything. graphics were normall. Dont know anything much. There were missions that u need to do in time and so.

I think the game I played when I was younger were played by me in 2003-2006 years.

It's an 2D game. Characters were very tiny and had big eyes if I'm not mistaken.

This was an building game. In this game you had to go underground to find some minerals like gold.

You could build some factories or something, houses and many other similar thing to speed up your work.

It had adventure elements like fighting some monsters(there were some big worms eating your people).

On starting screen there was an tower with sorcerer or dragon(I don't remember exactly ).

It wasn't a game like Settlers, more like lemmings or something like that(2D and other stuff).

It probably had multiplayer. It looked like it was in middle age, but had balloons to fly in and windmills, I think so.

Of course it was a PC game.

I hope someone will know what game I mean.

Please, people of escapist forum. Please help me find this great game.

Has anyone here every played a game called Need for Madness on miniclip? I remember playing it when I was younger, and apparently they have a multiplayer game now. Basically, it's a cartoon racing game but with awesome stunts and the ability to destroy your opponents!

Here's a link: needformadness.com/

Hi Guys I 'm looking for a kind of racing game with very cubic and geometry graphics. Some kind of these graphics https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f7uxZ0QRXd0 but in a real 3D environment with more details (Trees are just as green triangles). At the start we are in a race and we can do some stunts and fight other racers with an integrated machine gun or something but we can escape from the race and explore. The game is open world and we can go everywhere like climbing in buildings, find cubic objects. The graphics looks like tron. Sky is totally black and the colors are also basic (green, blue, red...)

I remember that I played it on windows 95 in a Cd with a lot of shareware demos inside

Help me please

Sorry for my bad english. Bisous de la france

I've found It was Mystic Towers

I forgot the names of two flash games I had a lot of fun playing a few years ago. Today, however, I can't seem to find them anymore even though I'd really like to.



The first one was more of an adventure-styled game. It was 2D and you were mostly working on just one screen where you could make a choice every day (e.g. Collect firewood, repair the ship etc.) and the game would have different endings and the story would unfold very differently based on the choices you'd make.

The story was about a group of survivors that got stranded on an alien planet and you had to repair the ship in time to get back to Earth. But you also had to make sure that there was enough food and that the survivors would not get crazy and kill eachother, so you had tough decisions to make every day.



The second one was more of an action-RPG. You played as an evil overlord/Sauron type of character that got ressurected from his tomb in a cutscene at the start. You started on the world map and could travel between places where you'd fight a battle vs the enemy army every time (just your own character vs a horde of enemies). At the end you would get experience so you could level your skills and an item to equip, which would actually alter your appearance as well as give you stats.

What else? There were battles in front of city walls as well, where you'd have to fight the army's champion (a giant IIRC) too.



Does any of these descriptions ring a bell? I would greatly appreciate any help.

The first game actually reminds me of "A Dark Room".

Ok, this is bugging me and I can't remember this game for the life of me.

I played it on a Windows 95 laptop, so it was definitely compatible with 95 (probably 98 too but I'm not positive about that). It was an educational game for kids and the cd was yellow. There was a character jumping up in the air and his hands were up too (kind of like a YEAH! jump). I *think* it was a kid looking thing, but it was some sort of character. The title and the character were blue and the rest of the cd was yellow (as I mentioned earlier). I don't remember a lot about the game, but I remember a section where you'd water plants or plant plants in a yard/field type of thing. I think the character had a dog too.

Oh, the character also had a crop top looking shirt that exposed his stomach a little when he was jumping (weird add on, I know, but that's what has stuck with me for 18yrs lol)

1 Game:

I've been looking for this game for years.I think it came out at around 2005, I used to own a disc of the Demo. You start off in some abandoned theater building or something and I think your main weapons were sawed off shotguns.You are killing bunch of vampires/zombies (can't really remember which one, but I think it was vampires) and you had an ability that you could activate once in a while when it's available. When you activate it you turn into a badass monster/vampire/zombie type thing that has 2 blades/reavers instead of arms and you are basically immortal and are dominating everything you see during the time you are that monster. Then after a few seconds you transform back into human with guns. I am really looking forward to finding out this game's name, it bring back a lot of good childhood memories.

This HAS to be Blood 2 : The Chosen
http://www.game-over.net/review/november/blood2/Screen6.JPG

You have the possibility to carry 2 weapons, including sawed-off shotguns, and one of the characters was a demon with affinity for blades. Though the game might be much older that you think

Hopefully someone here has played it.

Really, guys? RTS with ammo limit on units..anyone...?

Alright, I've been looking for years to find some really old games and I've had no luck. However, I know they exist because my sister's found one of them before (then lost the name, doy).

I'll just write whatever I remember-- hopefully it'll be enough!
These are all from really early 2000s, game #1 might be late '90s.

Game #1
It's a PC disk game.
The title has to be something with the word Taxi or Crazy in it, even though it's not a driving game. The scene is that this taxi driver takes you to an apartment complex, and every floor is a mini-game. Either there's like 30 or 100 floors, I don't remember.
I can recall the CD rom cover-- it's an oval-ish brown headed guy as the driver and you're in the passenger seat with a weird font for the title.
A few specific mini-game/levels:
-A grocery store with food you can place in your basket. There's also a cat standing on the produce that you can click and it'll meow, or you drag it over something and it thumps on the ground. I think you can try to feed it a fish but the cashier says no. When you're done there's a checkout, and if you try to "buy" the cat the cashier will specifically say, "You can't buy that cat!" I only remember because I did it so much oops.
-A wrecking ball level with furniture like a couch and a stuffed bunny plushie where you can destroy the items into pieces and rearrange them into something new. When you remade it there was a sucky "shhoooop" sound effect. The background was this weird old playground with a tire.
-A game of Solitaire or something similar and when you won this weird dancing person bounced around your screen.
Those are the only ones I remember. The screen where you chose the level was rows and columns of numbers 1-?? and you click the "floor" level to play.

Game #2
It's an old flash game, I think from original Shockwave.
You are a chihuahua with a sombrero and you platform to eat burritos, tacos, etc.

Game #3
I can barely remember this one, but it's in my head somewhere. I think it's a PC disk game?
There are bears and a log level where you have to do something with fish. I really can't write much else, I have no idea how to describe it but I know how the art looks specifically. It's very pixely and realistically colored.

Thanks. :')

I spent a long time searching for this too and I believe I found the answer to #2. Tamale Loco is what I found

Hi Everyone,
I've got a PC game that I remember playing about 15 years ago. I think it was for educational purposes. I remember one part where you take off in a plane, then find there's a yellow robot outside the back. He starts to cut into the plain to attack you, so you have to quickly figure out a puzzle with different colour light bulbs. The idea is to get them to flash in a certain order, so that the robot shuts down.

When you shut down the robot, it drops the cutter into the plane so you can pick it up. I think you had to use this later on in the game, so you could cut down a door on a wooden hut.

I also remember a bit where you had to search a map, which had been broken down into a grid. I vaguely recall something to do with bats in this bit too!

If anyone has any ideas what this is, I'd greatly appreciate you letting me know. I've got a chiled of my own now, so would like to see if I can get a copy.

I have a VERY vague memory of a PS2(?) game (May have been on a demo disc) Where there are two characters. Im pretty sure it was a man with a gun(or guns) and a woman with a staff. I BELIEVE there were zombies (I didnt get far I was little) but it could have been monsters in human (or close to it) form. The graphics, if I remember correctly, reminded me of Spawn on the PlayStation 1. Other than that I am close to drilling my skull and putting in a sata drive with how nuts this is driving me.
