I'm trying to remember a name of this marble game. It was for the PC and it's pretty old by now. I remember playing it on Windows 98. Anyway the game had several different colored marbles, you start at the top by dropping them into a funnel and at the bottom was the exit, you had to get the marbles of the right color on their spot on the exit. The exit had color coded position to show what marble went where. The levels had traps and stuff like glue a marble would get stuck in, or an elevator type thing, and cannons, stuff like that.

Marble Drop maybe.

Got two. First was an old BBS game where you play a gigolo. It was like studquest or studs or something. Second was a 1990's PC 3D game where you play a cyborg and you are supposed to find you way off the station you are originally trapped on. I remember the first 10 minutes is you beating the guy in the next cell up for something... I think it had Bio in the name.

This has been bugging me for ages, and I'd love it if someone could help me out. All I remember is that it was a PS2 game, an action-adventure, I think. It was featured around Egyptian mythology, and you got a Sword of Osiris and a Shield of Osiris. At some point, you played as a king as well, I think? Hope someone can help me, I'd be super grateful.

Yes! Thank you so much. I have fond (at least, I think they're fond) memories of that game.

I'm trying to remember the name of an early 90s game with primitive polygonal 3D graphics. You ran around exploring a castle and had to find food (cheese?) which renewed your strength (represented by a barbell) so you could run/jump more.

Didn't get a response in the last thread so I'm trying again. Looking for a sidescroller/shooter type where you piloted a big mech. I remember one of the early levels you were actually falling through the clouds for a while and shooting stuff, and then you would land and shoot stuff Contra-like. It was on Genesis or maybe Turbogfx16. One other detail I remember is the last boss: a tiny human guy in a glass bubble in the corner of the screen who controlled a crane-like thing that shot nasty poo poo at you.

I'm trying to remember an old PC adventure game that was first-person. It was actually more like an FPS in movement, as in hold a button to walk around, rather than click the edges of the screen and stuff like Myst. If memory serves, it was set in a weird 1984-ish world, and the main character had sunglasses. And the interface was.. an action figure or something the main character lifted up for you to see? And you'd click on his hands to manipulate things, or something like that. I remember it being a sort of a big game, but it's been so long that I can't remember the title.

But I accidentally found out that Target Earth is the game in the series before Cybernator and involves and mech and a level falling through clouds. Dunno about the boss though, I've never played it. EDIT: Found an L/P I used to look for a cloud level. The last video looks like it's the game (Youtube), and now I must play this since Cybernator is one the best games ever (if you ask me).

I can't for the life of me remember a SHMUP for the NES I once had. Instead of a ship, you had a guy with a jetpack, and he could aim up and down instead of just forward. The art on the cartridge and maybe the box featured him going up against a long-necked dragon or snake monster who may or may not have had a damsel in distress in its clutches.

This has been bugging me for a while and I'd like to try and solve it. When I was in high school we used to play a 3D multiplayer maze game in our Mac computer lab. The graphics were really basic polygonal 3D, and each player was represented by a different coloured pyramid-shaped thing. You could travel around the maze and shoot other players as well as pickup special items that had various functions. Does anyone know what game I'm talking about?

I wish it was that easy.  I definitely am not hallucinating - our mac lab machines had SimCity 2000, this FA/18 Hornet (I think) flight sim and this drat maze shooter game.

There was a game where, if i remember correctly, after seeing a cut scene of a narrator talking about some tribe that were terrified of 'things' in the woods, you were put in the arctic and had to sled (or walk?) to a long since frozen ship. While sleding, the ice below you broke apart and you had to get out and into the ship. One you got inside, you had hallucinations were you saw what happened to the people in the ship; when you were in a hallucination, you had to 'help' them so they would die properly or something like that. Anyone have any idea what it's called?

I'm looking for a game I played about 12 - 13 years ago on a friends PC that was a point and click adventure game where you played a young boy exploring a jungle (and undoubtedly solving mysteries). The game starts you off stuck in a tree I believe and you need to find a way down by doing something with a bird? The graphics were very nice, similar to Kings Quest V - VI but I can't remember who the developer was.

Mine is a PC game from the 90s... it was a strategy game with a checkers sort of feel, but it had to do with bubbles or balls. You would have a green ball of a smaller size and you would try to assimilate a similar small ball to get a larger size. There were certain power-ups such as using a spring to go a certain distance over the board, or a soap power up to amke your ball extra floaty. If I remember more, I will let you know...

I can barely remember this game, all I know is that it was an rpg on the sega genesis and it was possible for your character to be turned into a chicken by some sort of wizard or something. It was probably a pretty popular title I just can't ever remember its name... Edit: yeah totally is Shining Force thanks a ton guys!

In the castle where Anri and Arthur are, there's a wizard or a witch who turns you into a hen.

There's also a GBA remake that kicks rear end, though the graphics are a little too soft with all the smoothing they did.

I can't remember the name to an older game very similar to Heroes of Might and Magic 3. There was a LP of it awhile ago. All I can remember you sided with one group over another and that changed the way the game turned out. I think you could side with lizard men or elves in one instance. Something about some dark power returning.
