The Incredible Ed posted:It was definitely for the Apple IIe, because it's the only actual computer I had at the time. I was super young when I was playing it, so I couldn't figure out a lot. I think this is The Prisoner.

Fatty Patty posted:I'm thinking of a goon made RPG, possibly done using RPG maker. All the character portraits etc were hand drawn. I can't remember much about the game except that it had a REALLY awesome card game. Any ideas? Last Scenario?

Voodoofly posted:I played this game in roughly 2005. It was basically an ecosystem simulator where you could create creatures with different attributes (metabolism, speed, size, special attributes, etc.) and watch the Darwinian process at work. It was multiplayer in that your ecosystem was your screen, but you could connect to other players and it would create a new ecosystem that bordered your own. A few random details: This was called GooGrid but it looks like the owner's website has been abandoned, along with the discussion forum. The last time I checked, the creator had said that he didn't have the time to maintain the game anymore, and the game server had been offline for a while at that point. I did a little googling but I couldn't find any sort of site or forum trying to resurrect the game.

Transistor Rhythm posted:Trying to remember an early 90's CD-ROM PC game. Mars-themed, "Mars" somewhere in the title. I think it was first-person graphical adventure type. Cydonia - Mars: The First Manned Mission could be it.

Gann Jerrod posted:A few years back I watched a Let's Play of a 2D, top down game on the PC (I think). The story was that you were chosen by some kind of energy beings to kill men who has gotten evil alien type guys inside them. I remember that you had to sneak into a TV studio to kill a person by dropping a spotlight on them from the rafters, and the last boss was killed by luring him onto the path of a train. Dreamweb.

Kolodny posted:I'm trying to remember this older PC space sim, where you controlled a single ship and explored a procedurally generated universe. There was no fighting, no trading, it was all exploration. You could walk around the ship, control it to land on planets, and I think you may have been able to exit the ship and walk around the planets. It was incredibly low resolution, and the controls were almost Battlecruiser-level complicated. It's name may have started with an N, but barring that it had pretty unique name. Noctis IV.

door Door door posted:May have not actually been a full game and more of a tech demo, but I remember playing something about seven years ago that was a vertical shmup where you designed the boss and then got to fight it. I remember specifically that you were able to make different parts of the boss destructible. There is a shmup called Fraxy with a boss editor, is that what you're thinking of?

Brady posted:Anyone remember a game, released in the late 90's I think, that was a free-for-all battle type game with different types of characters; a rambo-like human, an alien, a robot, and a few others. I think one of the characters could fly via a propeller hat, or something. The game itself was sorta violent, but it was a side view 2d platformer with cartoonish(?) graphics. There was also a sort of adventure mode where you would choose one of the characters to play (or maybe it was random) and the game would give you different "challenge maps" to complete. I think the name of the game starts with "X", but I'm not sure. XEvil.

Just Offscreen posted:This has been driving me crazy! It was a windows 95 game- or something from about that era. It was a simulation game- but it was for an office environment, but it could also have manufacturing equipment and such in it. You hired workers and created and sold items. It had a one word name- something about business, or some kind of business lingo. It wasn't by maxis or any company I can remember. Free Enterprise?

Spiteski posted:Second is a offroader game that was around a similar time, may have been another PC mag disc but it was a large open world and I clearly remember you would get to the "edge" and they would just be horrendously large cliffs. I'm not 100% sure but if you could clip/climb your way to the top of the cliffs you'd get catapulted back into the map. I distinctly remember there were motorbikes and possible buggies of some description. This was all in third person perspective. This is almost certainly Motocross Madness (1 or 2).

MockingQuantum posted:Last one was a top-down tactical rpg (think Shining Force style) that had an absolutely massive number of character creation options, if my memory is to be believed. I think you made your entire party, and could have quite a few characters, and there were a lot of non-traditional (for the time) races and classes, like I'm pretty sure there was one, if not two, catpeople races, and demons, and etc. I think I had a catperson warlock who fought people with nunchakus. I don't remember the game necessarily being good, or well written, or even finished, for that matter. Is this one Realmz? https://www.mobygames.com/game/realmz
