I lost a Dreamcast game

It's called Maken X, from Atlus. Same art team as the Megami Tensei series actually. Maken X is only on the Dreamcast, but it got a re-release with a third person camera on the PS2 in Japan and Europe called Maken Shao if you import.

This is probably a long-shot, but I've been looking for a CRPG that was written for DOS back in the late 80s or early 90s (I played it in late 1991 or early 1992). It was shareware, party-based and had turn-based combat similar to the Gold-Box AD&D games.

I remember it had a lot of outdoor areas you could explore and took place mostly in outdoor settings (lots of wilderness combats and such). For the life of me, I can't remember the name of it and can't find it. I've found many games that come close on some things, but aren't the game I'm looking for.

Sounds a lot like Ancients.

I kept looking up knights in the nightmare -lol- I have one more...this one is far more obscure. It was an old arcade game where you could pick between 3 characters. a Martial Artist in a loin cloth A Female Superhero or a Male Wrestler (I think?) where you went around the world and fought bosses some stages had enemies you had to fight through before you got to the boss one of the last stages was a pirate airship. The game also had tandem attacks where 2 characters could do a special move and a enhanced version would come out. any info?

There's only a few arcade games like this, check out Metamoquester, Monster Maulers, and Sengoku 3.

Also, an extremely old C64 (I think) game in which you had to search for gold, either panning for it, or digging, or going on some quest on a big map. Pretty much the whole thing was text-based, except for the map part which was some kind of lame action game. Again, I played it in the early 90s, though it was probably from the mid-late 80s.

Any ideas?

This sounds very much like Goldfields.

Here's a difficult one:

It was during the late 80ies in some arcade hall. That game was a right-left scrolling beat'em up where you played as some kind of cyborg ninja thing.

All the powerups you got went into your character's fist, which first started glowing faintly and became :black101: when you got enough powerups. Also the game was hard as hell.

I know this is a vague description, but I was a small kid back then and was mostly impressed by the pew-pew and the good graphics.

Are you sure they were ninja? This sounds like Robo Army or Eight Man:

Horror game on the dreamcast. It was a pretty huge game, like 3 or 4 disks, set in some snowy mountains after a plane crash. The main character was female, and the game was in third person but you hunted in first person and combat took place in rpg-esque random encounters that were separated from the overworld. The plot involved weird, blob-like aliens of some sort.

D2. Pretty cool game too actually.

There was a thread for the game but I can't find it. It's a PS1 game heavily inspired by Twin Peaks/Lost Highway and is sort of inbetween Silent Hill 1 and Deadly Premonition in its structure (definitely a PS1 adventure game but with a large town to explore and such).

There's a Diablo clone I can't remember the name of. It came out some time in between Icarus and Revenant so late nineties. I'm pretty sure it only came out on PC but it is NOT Darkstone, Clans, or Nox. In the grim dark world of nineties gaming, all I remember for sure is that the setting was vaguely post apocalyptic but had magic/powers and guns also. It was definitely real time too not like Fallout Tactics or Odium.

Was it just a pipe puzzle game or was it a game where you walk around and do other puzzles like Myst/etc.? If the former look up Pipe Dream's releases and its many clones like Pipemania and Loopz. If it's the latter maybe Shivers and its sequel.

Alright, here's one that haunted my nightmares for a week or so in much younger days. There was a mini golf course in Hamlin, PA in the 90s that had a tiny arcade, and I got a brief look at the attract screens and it weirded my poo poo directly out. I want to say it displayed screens of some sort of urban setting and had text featuring the grim and gritty main character ruminating on his family, for whom he was presumably OUT FOR REVENGE. I mostly remember the text reading something like "MOTHER... FATHER..." in large red letters in a creepy font. I have suspected it was developed by Tecmo, since the font used for this text reminds me of that in the continue screen in the arcade version of Ninja Gaiden, but I've been unable to locate this mystery game via poking at Tecmo's production history on google and such. Any ideas?

"Mom...Dad...Sis...please be careful..."

Pretty good guess, especially considering the title screen, but I didn't have a NES/SNES, so it can't have been. The gameplay itself doesn't look familiar, either.

Rings of Power actually did come out on PC also so it could be that.



If you could actually move the character around on screen then maybe The Immortal? That game was ported to everything. The Wizard graphic isn't in the foreground at all times but it used very large sprites for the inventory and combat graphics. Definitely the best game where you can walk one step to the left after starting and immediately be consumed by one of the sandworms from Dune:

In a pinch it mightn have been on the Genesis/Megadrive instead, but I can't for the life of me remember properly. It was definitely pre-PSX era though. Another detail I just remembered is that the game over screen was a really dramatic comic book style multi-panel thing that showed your character collapsing.

vvvv - No, it wasn't. Right type of game though!

If it was Master System, the game is more focused on punching but it sounds a lot like Cyborg Hunter:

I've got two games. Both from PC gamer disks in the 90s! (gently caress you coconut monkey)

First was a Myst like puzzle game where you are trapped inside some temple. Most puzzles were inset to the stone walls. Lots of weird symbols and Sun and Moon imagery. One puzzle had to do with phases of the moon.

Second was a turn based strategy game set in a high tech future, I assume published in the wake of SMAC. Grid was hex based. There may have been different factions, but all human. I want to say the actual title sounds kind of like Sins of a Solar Empire. Thats all I can remember.

The first might be Qing/Xin, a Myst clone wherein you use moon phases a lot to solve puzzles in the massive tomb of Qin Shi Huang (real guy with the entire replica terracotta army+scale model of all of China built with him).

Oh man, Firepower 2000 is so much fun. Crazy industrial soundtrack for an old SNES game too.

This one is vague as hell, I've asked before but (unsurprisingly) it was never answered.

All I can remember is that it was for either the Genesis or the Megadrive. It was a fantasy game, I think there were multiple characters, and I think it had both sidescrolling and topdown areas. There were definitely sidescrolling corridors you went through, but I'm sure I remember a big topdown library place. There may have been multiple characters (one being a dwarf), I'm not sure. One of the enemies was like a man made of dark blue electricy stuff.

I'm pretty sure I'll never know what this game we had when I was a kid once, but it can't hurt to ask again.

Each one is just sidescrolling and just overhead respectively, but you may be thinking of Cadash or Elemental Master.

A 3DO game similar to Blade Force. However instead of seeing a helicopter on screen it was first person and you played as a standing person who flew around via a platform with a gun on it. It had a large amount of advertisements and things you could blow to pieces. The game was in fact about how you rebel against THE SYSTEM by destroying advertisements, and that you've lost your "ability to promote," according to the TIE IN COMIC BOOK PREQUEL TO THE GAME.
