my god, if you help me with this I will be eternally grateful

it's probably an nes game but might be a snes game, too young to remember. its a 2d platformer, in space, our solar system in fact, and set on different planets. you get to choose what character you play as (there are different robots and one human kid) and each char has different abilities and one planet.
the kid's level was like on jupiter.

Thats all I remember.. can you help me /vr/?

It's a reasonable guess. If you can't remember what the game is called then it's possible you're mixing up details.

>PC game
>Pretty much a collection of mini games

Not NES, I just went through the list and found nothing remotely close, unless you were getting the details horribly wrong.

And just went through the list of SNES platformers, still drawing a blank. The only really sci-fi platformers I can't say for certain are not it are the Jetson's games for those platforms.

Are you 100% sure it was a platformer, on the NES/SNES? Are you sure it wasn't a fighter, or on a different console?

I honestly can't remember when this came out, so if it turns out to not be retro exactly, I'm sorry, but I've been trying to remember this game for YEARS.

It was probably multiplat, but I remember playing it on one of those candy-colored iMacs. It was a point-and-click, and the plot had something to do with a group of people that had been put into stasis on a boat (a cruise boat, I think, I remember it looking really nice inside) that had run aground in ice. You had to go into the mind of every person in stasis in order to release them from their nightmares and let them die. For some reason I seem to remember one of the people being a young girl named Claire Lune, but searching for that doesn't turn up anything, so I might be wrong about it.

I'd be eternally grateful if anyone had any idea about this.

Does anyone remember a helicopter game for the sega genesis/super nes?
It was a sidescroller, took place in a desert and you could shoot and drop bombs(I REALLY liked dropping bombs).
Every time I look for this game it finds a thousand other unrelated games because of the vague details and generic idea. I mean, how many games are about helicopters in the desert blowing shit up? Hell, how many games are about blowing shit up in the desert, period?

Old mac game, circa '94 or '95.
Vertical space shooter with clay-like graphics.
Your enemies are cones, rings and spheres.
Destroying the enemies results in a weird voice-like sound.
If it helps, it came on the same demo disc as munchies.

I only played the demo of this game, and it started you in the jungle I believe, outside a base.
Upon examining your equipment you find you had a Sonic Screwdriver, which was just a screwdriver with a picture of Sonic on it.

>you use a fire extinguisher to see lasers in the hallway of the base
>there is a door that needs a code, your only clue is a birthday card.

My brother has an FPS for PSX that I kinda wanted to try even though I don't really like the genre. He wouldn't let me play his games much so I never got a chance.

But now I can't remember the title or what the game was about. I think it might have had something to do with aliens but I'm not sure. One of the later levels (may have been the last) was kinda dark and misty. I think you either collected blue orbs or shot blue orbs. Maybe both? The main villain may have been female and non-human.

And all of this information may be garbled because I can't seem to remember it very well.

That's all the info I have. I could try to look for it myself but I will only get confused unless I stumble upon an image that jogs my memory.

I've been searching for this game for years. It was a Sega Genesis game.

I remember it very vaguely so some of this might be inaccurate.

You got to choose to play as a different character each round from a repertoire of characters with different skills (e.g. there were ninjas, barbarians, etc). The object of the game was to infiltrate enemy lines each round and kill every member of the opposing army. I am pretty sure it had a cooperative play mode where you and a friend could do this together.

Well, I doubt I'll get any help, but I can't remember the title of this game from my childhood. I think it was around the '97 or something.

The colorscheme consisted mainly of browns, I believe I only played the shareware version.

It was top-down view, but I can't remember if it was isometric.

The story: you are a sort of an agent infiltrating a building to gather data, you have to cross rooms making sure to push certain switches to open doors and disable turretts. I can't remember if there were any "real" enemies, but there was a wide variety of turretts of which you had to learn the behaviour. There were probably floor tiles which killed you or triggered traps/turretts.

It basically was a kind of action puzzle-game, and I'm sad I can't remember the title. Everything I wrote is an approximation, my memory is hazy.

I have a tough one for you...

2D platformer
Pegasus console (NES ripoff)

I think it was a game about Wario (i think i remember super mario land sticket on the cartrige)
All i can remember that you controlled a guy that looked like Wario and you could get powers like one sided kick or double sided kick or air roll and the first boss was some kind of a statue like female buddha or something

I did my share of searching, i dont think anyone will be able to find this game, shit is too old

Mine is an old game on the PC, Windows, I believe, older than XP. I don't even know if it was on a disk, because if I recall correctly, it seemed like one of those games that came with the PC (Minesweeper, Pinball, etc).

It was a top down puzzle-ish game. You controlled a character and had to activate things to get to the end, I think. Maybe collecting keycards was involved? I dunno.

One thing that I remember pretty vividly was that when you died, the computer made a noise that sounded like "bummer" in a lowish voice.

Any leads?

Alright, let's give this another shot.

It's an old PC game where you traverse the seas and explore islands. Pic is all I can remember of it, and reverse image searching gives no results. The most distinct features are that you can shoot sea monsters to get food and you can look at ships' flags to see if they're pirates or not.

And here's the most important detail: It's not Sid Meier's Pirates. There are pirates, but all they do is steal your shit if they reach you. They're not the game's main focus.

Guarantee no one will be able to help me on this one. I've searched for years and I don't think it exist on the internet anywhere.

I bought this game for like a dollar in a dollar general store back in 2001. It played EXACTLY like Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup. You start out on a grassy ground floor with a shop, and you go down all the way to floor 30 or 40 I think it was to beat the final boss. You level skills like Fire Magic/Fighting/Healing (like 18 skills) and pump stats as you go down. If you pumped certain stats you ended up being a special class, like a Fire Magic/Armor/Sword hero would be a Fire Knight and so on.

Now I know the name of the game, the problem is it's such a fucking basic name

"Hero"

You played it in DOS and it was my first Roguelike addiction when I was like 12 and got me into ADOM. I wish I could find it just for nostalgic purposes and share it with /rlg/.

It was an awesome as fuck roguelike and tbh it's rare as fuck if it does exist on the internet somewhere. Thanks for any help anons.

An arcade game. Top down view, you're a train, escaping from bad trains down a crazy track setup. I think the goal was to retrieve something. You could also transform into a more powerful train with a pickup I think. Might have been made by Konami, very unsure.

I've asked about this many times over the years and I never got an answer.
I played this around 10 years ago or more. I obtained a demo of it on a CD that you got with every Joker game magazine.
The game is a 3D stage based platformer in maps with no ceiling. I could only always play the first stage because it was a demo. You are a creature/robot thing and I'm not sure if its 1st or 3rd person. There would be lots of different enemies, like nurse looking robots and soldier looking robots and crab (lobster or some king of claw creature) robots and really fast ones. If you would kill these creatures you could absorb their body and become just like that, gaining of all their abilities and also the appearance I think.
But that's all I can remember.

Very loose terms, I know, but I've been dying to find it and play it again because I remember it being pretty good. Played it on a Win98 computer if I recall.

I figure it's a game probably made somewhere from '95 to '98 or so, probably like '95 or '96.

I hate to be one of the many with yet another RPG but I really hope I can get some leads on this one.

I made a thread (even though I searched I must've used wrong parameters) asking about this.

I have a vague recollection of the game I'm looking for (the one I want a direct download of). It was a first-person point-and-click (like Myst, I think) and you had two companions, another person and a robot. The only thing I recall with any clarity is the final boss battle because I never beat it, because it went by way too fast: You basically play Risk against the Big Bad, and somehow him winning Risk allows him to take over. Also, I'm positive it had "XTREME" in the title.

Anonymous Mon Oct 14 18:57:01 2013 No.1136368

I've asked about these games in every one of these threads I've seen, but I'm sure one day someone will know... Maybe.

The first is an RPG/Maybe Roguelike game where death is permanent, you start in your own house, limbs have their own health, and upon entering new zones you get a message that was something along the lines of 'You have entered _____. You are considered _____ here.', with the second being a reputation of sorts. I believe your character's head was visible at all times by the limbs, and he was bald. It was Freeware/shareware, and I most likely got it at download.com. A common suggestion given is IVAN, but I'm very familiar with IVAN, and it's not it.

The second, also from download.com, was called Silver Island. This is unique in that I know the name of the game, but can't find it anywhere. Seems to be one of those games that just disappeared from the internet altogether. If anyone had a link for that, my boner would be unstoppable.

The last game is another freeware/shareware game where you play a caveman, or some other form of early human. It was sidescrolling, and when you met other humans, you had options of what to say to them. From what I remember, most options ended in getting a spear to the face and dying, but I'd love to try it out again. I believe the game was named after the main character, and I distinctly remember the top option for talking to people being 'I am ____', and even that usually meant spears to the face.

Also, thank you to the person looking for Geneforge. After I read the description and the name was given, I downloaded it and I've been having a blast. Seems like an interesting story.

Also I have one for you guys if anyone can remember. This one came on those "games for windows" CDs with a lot of games (another game I remember being there was castle of the winds).
This one was a TBS game, very advance wars-like but older. Every faction was a colour and at the beginning of the game you could set what factions would play.
Graphics were very basic and units were flat outlines of what they represented (tanks, ships, planes, etc).
Maps were composed of square tiles (sea and land basically) and I don't remember if there were cities or not. I don't remember whether there was any AI or whether I just played by myself.
I also think that units blinked when selected. I have been thinking about this one a lot (it wasn't big production but I liked it).

I played this long ago when I was a child and had shitty english skills.
It's an adventure puzzle game about a young prince who accidentally fucks up something and has to seal away a demon trapped in a mirror in a kingdom where both dinosaurs and humans coexist. You can help various clans of dinosaurs and they help you defend against carnivorous dinosaurs.

First off, forgive my shitty description, it's been a long time since I played.

PC game
It was slightly similar to FF Tactics as far as how you attack enemies up close.
When it was each of your character's turn, you'd see how many spaces your character could move.
At one point in the game (I think within like 3 hours of gametime) a vampire or werewolf looking thing joins your party. He was OP, that's what I most remember of that character.
I don't remember if it was just my monitor, but the majority of the game felt darker, brightness-wise, compared to other things.
I think the main character you start off with is either given the choice to be a white mage, or is forced to be a white mage. I remember not using him much for that reason.

Trying to find a game for my girlfriend.

She describes it as:

>PC Point & Click style PC game
>From the 90's
>Possibly developed/distributed by Sierra On-Line
>Story opens in a bookstore or office (Lots of books in the area)
>Cinematic plays of lady in a bellhop or bellhop-esque outfit delivering a package
>Remembers something about the "Cygnus Corporation" (Possibly different spellings)
>CD-Rom would play the game soundtrack when placed in a CD Player as opposed to playing the game on a computer

Here goes...

NES or SNES game I'm pretty sure. Platformer/action type game; I remember the PC had a spear, and that there was some kind of scroll system for casting various spells. I remember it having pretty excellent boss fights. It may have been vaguely Asian in style?

I know that it was NOT Act Raiser, which others have suggested.

Greetings, /vr/. I've been searching the name of this game for a long time.

It had side scrolling shooter (character using a gun) and top down shooter (using a car) stages, alternating with one and the other. The car's projectile sprite looked something like nails.

I remember seeing the word "DEX" somewhere in that game. I couldn't remember whether I played it on a Famiclone or Sega Genesis.

I am searching for a game where you had to build your flying fortress....

you had a flying island and could install stuff in it, such as energy cells, speed boosters, spikes, etc. and you had to destroy other flying islands.

computer game. keyboard control the ship and i guess you could use the mouse to place stuff in your island.

anyone ever played it?

I have a game I vaguely remember that my dad would play when I was in the hospital as a child on what I believe was the NES. It involved SWAT members or a tactical force of some sort. It was a mix of side scrolling stages were I believe you would hide in the background from enemies or a spotlight or else you got gunned down? When you reached a building it turned into a first person corridor exploration. I think the lives system was that you had multiple characters when one died you chose another.

Either I'm vaguely remembering this properly, or nothing like this exists and my mind was just screwed from all the morphine pumped into me over that period.

it was sort of a diablo2'ish game, but definitely came out before it, i remmember decent graphics for the time (around 1997-1999). 'twas an action rpg, and when you'd open the inventory screen you'd see your character on the left side with the equipment equiped.

Snes game

You plag as two dogs and can switch between them (I think it alos hadf 2 player where you could play as both at the same time?) one was a big white shepdog kind of thing and one was skinny.

The skinny one could spin his ears around his head and kind of float, the big one could (althogh I can't really remember at this point) do some other sort of special move I believe smashing blocks or killing the enimies or something.

Platformer. Definitely out before 1997, probably sometime around 1995

A text adventure on the MSX (and probably other computers), it started you off inside a virtual reality game near a house. When you got out of the virtual reality there were ~ 5 more virtual realities in alcoves around you.

But when you started exploring that 'real' world, you reach a big open space with a tiled floor the only identification of each location is a sequence of color-coded tiles. Otherwise the description text was identical. And then you stop playing.

No one has ever been able to help me with this one. It was an educational math game on one of those green and black screen Macs. At the start you had to pilot a side scrolling UFO through a meteor field and eventually get it. After this there were a few mini games, like solving maths problems to fix holes in the ship, and one involving lengthening a pendulum on a clock. And it's definitely not Math Blaster, came before that.

A game for PC around windows 98, I can only vaguely remember it but it was a game where you were on a spaceship and played as different characters at the same time and you switched between them, the view was isometric and I only had the demo from a Computer Shopper disc and I can't seem to find an archive or anything of all the demos they've had. I also loosely remember controlling a robot who used a fire extinguisher, I presume the spaceship had crashed or something.

SNES game
You could jump around in a very mode 7 heavy overworld
The main game had you go into areas to solve puzzles or something and get items.

I remember there was a volcano or something. Also I think that the puzzle sections of the game were in an 3/4 isometric perspective similar to Mario RPG

>>	Anonymous Fri Oct 18 19:13:53 2013 No.1143998 >>1142965 I really want to find that game too, it sounds really cool if it's anything close to how you describe/i imagine it. I'm keeping an eye out.

>>	Anonymous Fri Oct 18 20:24:03 2013 No.1144097 >>1142973 It's honestly one of the best multiplayer games on the SNES.

It's not exactly that I know such a game to exist, but I'm pretty sure one of you guys could help me anyway.
I'm looking for a worthy space trade simulator, think the Patrician but in space. Where over time you could get a holding on a planet and be elected it's governor and shit.

Been trying to remember this one for years, but my description is so vauge I don't know if anyone can tell me but here we go.

>PS1 Demo
>Remember I was in an arena of some sort fighting what looks like a dragons head with 2 floating claws
>Defeating the claws will make them turn blue and stay frozen in place
>Had to attack the back of the dragons head to kill it

That is all I can remember.

does that happen in the game? because I thought it was that game and I own it now but I haven't got to the part that the save file on the rented cart was on. I'm like 99% sure it is that now I was just wondering if there was a game with a similar look that had that kind of.dialogue. thanks though for the confirmation bro.

>>	Anonymous Sun Oct 20 15:53:57 2013 No.1147529 The movement was tile based, similar a roguelike where when you move, the enemies move. One major part of the game was that you killed enemies by tricking them into falling through pits or holes on the screen or something.
