I'm trying to remember the name of a text adventure. Apparently this one was pretty popular, and got awards and poo poo for best text adventure. It's about a guy getting ready to leave for a trip to the desert to go to a get together, something similar to burning man. He's waiting for a taxi to arrive at his apartment to take him. He's feeling weird, checking his stuff, and when he tried to do his last minute packing the apartment starts pretty much falling apart, with stuff turning to sand and sand flooding out of things. It was amazing in how "real" it felt, with descriptions of stuff heard/seen outside his windows like a helicopter flying by, and songs on the radio changing as you go about the game.

Bareback Rodeo posted:Mine is a game from the Sega Megadrive, I think. It's sort of like Contra. It's a side-scroller, you run along and it's multiplayer and you shoot monsters with guns. The only identifiable thing I remember is there is a sort of ancient-Egyptian level. You go up against an Anubis-like character at some point. http://www.mobygames.com/game/genesis/stargate_ It was pretty cool.

Kinkify posted:There was this strange RPG I played a while back on the gameboy, all I can remember is that one of the NPCs says "You singed my hair!" Good luck with that one I think maybe you started out in a castle, but could explore other areas afterwards. It seemed like a very obscure game.

Plain Bagels posted:This one was for the PSX and I watched my friends play mulitplayer on it once. I think you were a robot or something and you were trying to capture your opponents base. You could either build tanks which would assault your opponents base or planes which guarded your own base.
