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

[Matt Antos-Lewis]

Ok, usually manage to find out the answer to these via Googling keywords, but this one has me and the world's favourite search engine stumped. So here goes...

On PC back in the late 80's or early 90's I'd say. You play as a pair of eyeballs, that roams about levels collecting lollipops. You had to collect them all to complete the level. It was a 2D view, and you could create your own levels, using such tiles as travelators, ice, ladders, monsters etc. I'm pretty sure the file to launch the game was called 'cnstr.exe', but that may be a red herring, and I've had no luck searching for games called 'Constructor'.

This one is from the early 90's. Believe that this PC game was made in the UK. It was a talking frog that walked through town and try to figure out how to move forward...when you met people, you had options to tell them stuff that was either rather normal, sarcastic or really off the wall. I vaguely remember a scene/puzzle where you had to find an afro wig from the beauty parlor and a medallion in order to pass the 70's disco venue...any help is really appreciated

Hey, I'll be shocked if anyone can help me with this. I'm looking for a pc game from the late 90's. It involves you looking around a haunted house/halloween house with bats and skeletons that would chase you, possibly a vampire too. outside the house was lit pumpkins and lightning. It was in first person 3d. I honestly cant even remeber half the game. The only thing I can remember is at the end it would show you another game about a haunted farm.
if anyone can help me with this I will be in your debt!

It wasn't a frog though...it was a lizard.

Eep, hopefully I've come to the right place... I've been trying to find this one game for years...

Now I was really, really young when I played this. I don't think I actually could read at the time, so I don't know if the game was part of a website or not. (The website I assumed it was part of was Warner Brothers but I already looked as much as I could there and no results.)

But this is what I remember from the start of the game: You start off playing as a woman(I remember her having really short hair.) who is on a boat with a few coworkers of hers, one specific coworker is a man with glasses (I believe he was a redhead) and this boat is attacked by natives of the land (they're shooting arrows if that helps...) and the specific coworker is kidnapped, and the woman plans on saving him. (Now I don't remember much after that, but the game is kind of full of puzzles. Y'know the regular puzzle game, you try and make everything right so you can advance to the next level) Later on this woman is saved by a man who is covered in tattoos (I believe he doesn't wear a shirt for the first part of the game...) they later on team up together so you occasionally play as him as well. (I think this guy is blond.)

(Below are scenes I sort of remember from the game, if it helps anyone to help me remember what game it was
One scene I pretty much remember when playing as the male character (guy with tattoos) is in a lab-place, a woman tested something on herself I think and she transformed into a monster and you have to get through this lab trying to find a way to get rid of her?? I don't know.
If this help there is a specific level with the female character where you have to access a certain part of the place she is in, it kind of seems like an airport, she has to find a way to get this woman's card and she can use it to get somewhere else, and I remember a hallway where a guard is posted at a desk but if you get too close he will get to you and I think he tasers you. (I never did find out how to get by him.)

More info: This game does have cut-scenes and the coworker of the girl does actually betray her I think it the first level or so (soon after he disappears) which is why I think the mysterious guy with tattoos that saved the female character does join the journey.

Now I don't know what the whole game was about, but I do think it was to stop a man who was planning something horrible against the world... You know... the usual...

Anyway, I hope to find this game once more!
Thank you to anyone who can help me out!

I saw the cover to this one game forever ago. It had this kid, and a monster behind him, and they were both doing that thing where they have their mouth open and they look all intimidating and they have their arms up in the air. I can upload a picture for reference if need be. In front of them both was a scared looking sheep. All I remember is the cover, unfortunately.

EDIT: This was a PS2 game.

Hi everyone,

Please help me find this game:

-It's a civilization type of game.

-You can be either a viking either an indian(maybe there are more nations to choose from; i cant remeber, it's been a while).

-The indians have a really cool statue of a chief of tribe holding flames in his hands.

-You can build towers of defense, but they won't shoot until you put archers in them(unlike most of the games, where they shoot imediatly after they are built)

Thanks in advance

Hello, I'm new here!
I'm looking for two computer games of my childhood.

One was about animals (in 2D) that had to do missions in a park. In one place was a sandbow and there was an elephant. I remember too that was a bad snake or something like that. You could print the characters in black and white to draw them.

The other one was a logic/educative game that was developed in a graveyard or a labyrinth with purple and yellow colours. There were math games that used worms and some insects to build the numbers and another game where you had to play with strange plants like mandragora and carnivorous ones.

Both of them were for pc and I think I played among 1999 and 2010 (closer to 2000 I think)

Thank you very much!!

im looking for a game and its driving me crazy because i dont remember much of it... i know its a stupid kind of game that makes you laugh. On the cover of the game is a woman with a fairly large chest holding two pints off beer (maybe just one) you play as a man and you can walk around the map doing little missions. there is also a mini game were you have a cup in the middle and try to put coins inside of it.. something like that... im pretty sure the game ison xbox 360. Thats all i know. i hope someone can help me. Its driving me insane!!!

 

[BouncerBunny]

I used to play this game in my pc between 2004-2007, I don't remember exactly the year, but the game should was older.
It was 2d I think and when you start you choose between two characters a wizard with blue clothes and a stick I think and a Viking with an axe.
Each of them has some powers. The Wizards powers like throw water or tornados and throw ice and the Viking power with fire and rock.
In each level you must take 3 gems ( maybe ) and also you could take some things from glass with something in there which give you new abilities.
I don't remember the levels very well but in one there were some skeletons as opponents and also there were and some elevators (from wood???)
Thanks for any help
And sorry for bad English

Is it possible you're thinking of a game from the Golden Axe series? It doesn't sound exactly like what you describe so I could be extremely wrong, but I do believe it's similar and had a PC port. I haven't played every Golden Axe game, so I figured it could be one of them.

I'm having a hard time finding the name to a game that I played in the 90s about Dragon Riders. The game was a first person puzzle / fighting game in a pre-rendered 3D environment where you moved around like you would in Myst.

The game came free with a new computer and was one of the first games I ever played. I was young and I don't think i got very far in the game but i remember fighting (with difficult to cast spells) skeletons, spiders, and other dragon raiders. Most of the game was made up of puzzles where you would click an object or combine items etc.

Are you talking about Leisure Suit Larry: MCL?
The cover is actually Larry holding a thing of beer, and two women with him, but the game description itself sounds like it could be right.

I am a first time Poster here. sorry, this is the only place i could ask or post a question. I have a game from C64, never had a name on the disk. It was a bootleg game. The entire game is pitch black, only keyed precise typed instructions would command person where to go. "move North" is an example. You would walk around until you could find a "sinister" looking building that you would have to get in to. At the end of the game, it would ask 5 riddles to beat the game. PLEASE tell me you know the name of this game!! Thank you

Hey guys,
I don't remember much of this game, but I do remember little bits.
I think it was a pc game. You're this guys, it's like olden day style.
Almost like robin hood, peasants and stuff.
I think I remember the character being sorta a smartass.
It was a click and walk game and I remember coming across this tree.. she spoke and she was cursed and wanted to be human again. I think she also sung.
I know it isn't much but it's all I really remember.

 

[Coldfire]

Alright so this will be kind of vague as it has been a long time since playing this game.

It was a 2D game from I believe the early 2000'.
You were a small spaceships (I think you were green) that flew around a map filled with asteroids. Your goal was to shoot at and destroy the asteroids in order to collect various valuable minerals. There were computer controlled spaceships that had the same objective and would either try to destroy you or flee upon sight/being attacked.

It may have come with the computer, and I remember it being a part of one of those bundles, like you accessed a single file and then chose which of the games you wanted to play.

Every time I think of the game, I try racking my brain (and the internet) for an answer, but can never find this much beloved game.

Thank you for the help!

It isn't that but they have many commons.
Thanks for trying.

I need help remembering the name of a game!
I remember playing it around 2000, and it was a PC kids adventure game involving a bunch of puzzles and problem-solving levels, either point-and-click or there could have been arrows in one of the bottom corners. The main characters were 4 kids who solve mysteries together (not the Scooby-Doo Crew). One zone was a jungle area, with a large tile/picture puzzle near the end of the level, and I remember there were really weird bird-like screechy background sound effects for that entire zone, and it had made-up creatures of some kind, maybe a dragon or something. Another level had a cave with multi-colored crystals. I remember it had pretty good graphics for the time. I also remember there was one that had a creepy carnival, and a scary clown roller coaster... though that might have been in another game if it was a series. I know it's not much to go on, but it was memorable enough to me that I remembered some of the gameplay, and I thought it might ring a bell to someone on here.
