Platform(s): browser

Genre: simulator . isometric 2d

Estimated year of release: late 2010s early 2020s

Graphics/art style: lots of purple and dark cool colours like emerald green grass . almost corporate memphis adjacent but chalky instead of clean vector lines . it was set in a clearing in a forest and i think it had some greek influences .

Notable characters: little white ( or perhaps light purple ? ) villagers . no facial features they were little stick figure esque things . may or may not have had clothing

Notable gameplay mechanics: as stated above you could select villagers and make them fight or have sex . i think you could also feed them grapes from bushes surrounding the clearing . they were at the top . i'm pretty sure it was how you made them have sex but i could be wrong

Other details: i found it via a news site or something similar ? it was for sure related to a news site in some way , i think it was a commentary . i played it like once for an incredibly short time and i immediately forgot what it was called but it's been bugging me ever since

Have been looking for this game for a while now.

I played is in the early 2010s when I was a kid.

Gameplay

It was a top down, grid based, tower defense game.

There weren't many maps only around 3 or so

(The sketch is of one of the maps)

The main enemies of the game were dune buggys

(What I remember they are like raiders or something trying to kill your city/country)

With every wave having bigger and bigger vehicles, later waves having tanks

Every now and again there were also jets

The jets weren't limited to the road like the cars they just flew across the entire map.

Cuz of the jets the only tower I remember form the game is the AA gun. Since the early game economy was really tight it was vital to save up for the AA gun

Graphics

The game had like sort of mad max inspired feel but with the world being more sci fi

The maps had a desert theme with road being sand and the walls being cliffs

Game had mostly brown, tan, dark gray colours with a bit of bright red for the enemies

Sprites were trying to look realistic

Main menu used real pictures (only one I remember is a Dune buggy in a desert)

The enemy's and turrets were sort of 90s early 00s dark futuristic looking

The turrets sprites took up most of the grid they were placed in

The game was overall gritty looking.

That's about all I can remember from the game. I really this description is enough to find it

• Platform(s): PS3 or Xbox 360 / PC era
• Genre: First-Person Horror Shooter / Wave Survival (CoD Zombies style)
• Estimated year of release: Late 2000s or Early 2010s (approx. 2005 - 2015)
• Graphics/art style: 3D, dark, grungy, horror aesthetic
• Notable characters: An enemy, boss, or entity with a very distinct voice
• Notable gameplay mechanics: First-person shooting, jumping, fast-paced action against hordes/enemies
• Other details: My most distinct memory is a specific voice line where a character/monster drags out the word "WEEEEAAK!". The voice is kind of similar to the Demonic Announcer from CoD Zombies

The voice is hard to describe: it's dark, grungy, and guttural, but has a light/strained quality at the same time. It sounds like the character is on the verge of vomiting or choking on bile while speaking.

It involves the main character finding a game cartridge, and playing it where the horror starts. Cannot exactly remember but its about doing vehicular tricks with either a skateboard or a bike. It is then later showed that the mc's brother died because he gave him headphones, unable to hear a train coming at them while walking, and dying by having their entire lower section bludgeoned and cut off. I think the game begins with a V? i dont know.

+ how to mark post once this gets solved 👀

Genre: Real-Time Strategy (RTS) / Lane-based / Tug-of-war / Castle vs Castle.

Estimated year of release: definitely played before 2016

Graphics/art style: Pixelated, 2D isometric top-down view (reminiscent of Age of Empires or classic 2D fantasy strategy games). Medieval / Fantasy theme. Single fixed-screen map layout (no screen scrolling).

Notable characters / mechanics:

• Neutral Defenders: The neutral capture points were defended by neutral fantasy creatures, specifically remember a Dragon (or Dragon's Nest) and/or a Giant Tree / Tree of Life.
• Match-ending rule: The game did NOT end immediately when your main base/castle fell. As long as you had surviving units on the field, the match continued, giving you a chance to recapture your base or capture neutral points.
• Aggressive "Sniper" AI: Neutral capture points did NOT reset their HP if your attacking force died. If you weakened a neutral dragon/tree down to low HP but lost your units, the AI would aggressively send a single unit to finish off the defender and claim the capture point on your side of the map. (or something like that)

Notable gameplay details:

• Level-based structure: Stage/level progression (not an open-world game).
• Map Layout: The map had a very distinct U-shape / horseshoe layout (see sketch link below). The two main bases/castles were located at the top two corners. The path curved down along the sides to the bottom center where armies met.
• Non-aligned / Neutral points: Along the side paths of the "U", there were neutral capture points/structures (guarded by the mentioned dragons/trees).

Takeover is the closest what i get https://www.crazygames.com/game/takeover to this lost game

Sorry for the paint draw, that the closest i remember from my brain.

The year is only an estimate.

When I was a child, I used to play a truck game on my old tablet, probably a Samsung Tab 3. I'm trying to find this game again, but I don't remember its name.

Some details I remember:

- I think the starting truck was blue (not very light or very dark), simple, with no drawings or logos.

- In the shop, there was another truck that was red. It was taller, had 3 wheels on each side, 6 wheels in total, a cab-over cab, and a roof deflector. Like the blue truck, it had no drawings or logos and had simple wheels with white circles.

- All the trucks in the game had plain paint, with no textures or designs, and the wheels of the controllable vehicles were just white circles, with no details.

- The camera was in third person. I'm not completely sure, but I think the screen stayed fixed even when the truck changed direction, and the camera could be moved with your fingers.

- There were missions around the city.

- I'm not completely sure about this, but I also remember that the pickup and delivery locations may have been marked by tall beams of light reaching into the sky.

- I think the game had somewhat realistic physics, with the truck sometimes being able to slide on the road if it was going too fast or hit something.

- The game had simple graphics, somewhat similar to the image above, but it wasn't as low-poly as the image, and it wasn't exactly that game.

Does anyone remember what game this might be?

it's an indie game if I'm not wrong

It was a game on the psp (could of been on the ds but im pretty sure it was psp) it was a top down alien shooter and for some reason I think I remember the main protagonist being a female. With the research I've done I found 2007 "Alien Isolation" but this one seems to have much better graphics from what I remember the game having maybe it was an older version or a copy of it idk

Thanks for the help in advance

I’m trying to remember an old Spider-Man video game I played on PC, probably sometime in the 2000s, although it could be older or newer. I’ve been searching for it, but I haven’t found the right game yet.

Here are the details I remember:

Platform: PC, as far as I remember.
Graphics/gameplay: Definitely 2D, or at least I’m very confident it was 2D. The graphics were somewhat pixelated, like an older game. It was not a 3D game. No free roam, it was more of a linear dynamic.
Characters: You could play as Spider-Man or Venom, but you controlled only one character at a time. I don’t remember being able to switch freely between them.
Venom’s abilities: This is the detail I remember most distinctly. You could trap enemies in webbing and then eat them, you had to usually lower their life bar to a certain point so that you could press the key S and then perform the “eating” technique. I’m not entirely sure whether the character was actually Venom or Spider-Man wearing the black symbiote suit, but I distinctly remember this feeding mechanic. Some enemies you could even eat straight-up due to them being weak from the get go.

Gameplay: I think you could move around the city rather than being restricted to a single screen. Enemies could approach from both sides of the screen.

Locations/atmosphere: This is very important: I remember it started at Peters’s house and you moved from there onwards, or somewhere associated with him, and then progressing through the city. Some of the missions involving Venom may have taken place at night, but I’m not completely sure.
I’ve already considered Ultimate Spider-Man (2005), but the well-known PC version is 3D, and I distinctly remember 2D gameplay. I’ve also looked at some older Spider-Man games, but none has looked quite right so far.
Does anyone remember a game matching this description? I’m particularly interested in older PC games, obscure releases, or games that might have had different versions for different platforms. Any screenshots or gameplay footage would be incredibly helpful!

Hey everyone, adding the actual text clues here since I couldn't fit them in the image! Platform(s): PC (Windows) Genre: 2D Platformer / Casual Arcade Estimated year of release: Around the 2000s (Strictly no 2010s or 2020s) Graphics/art style: It features a very distinct, smooth, and glossy pre-rendered 3D-to-2D graphic style. The character models and assets look shiny and plastic-y, exactly like the art style Scott Cawthon used in his early game "Chipper & Sons Lumber Co." right before making FNAF. Notable characters: It features human characters. Notable gameplay mechanics: I accessed it through a highly specific desktop software/launcher app. The software was completely "slop-free" (no ads or modern clutter) with a dark/black background layout. The UI had a large rectangular game thumbnail preview window on top, sitting directly above a small horizontal selection list of games at the bottom. Around 20% of the entire launcher's small library included Plants vs. Zombies, Peggle 1, and a Club Penguin Puffle maze game (like Puffle Rescue).

So there was this PC game where you had to click on the 2D gunslinger Sprites that would go from one area of the screen to another to take them out. I had it on an old PC that had Windows 95 on it, I think it might have been gun something but idk. all I know is I used to play it back in the day and I can't seem to find it anywhere. the X's are where you click on the gunslingers....or cowboys?

EDIT: Found it! It's Steppenwolf 9 by SARBAKAN studios. Looks a bit worse than I remember lol, and a few details are different.

Hey guys! This game's been on my mind for well over a decade now.

As many details as I can remember:

- I remember playing it in 2010 (or before).

- It was uploaded on those game websites where there are a ton of flash games you could play in the browser. I think it was under the Escape Room games category, despite basically being the opposite.

- The logo of the game studio/maker was, I think, two letters and a circle? which was drawn out in splattered red ink/blood. I remember being kinda scared of it as a kid.

- The protagonist, who you play as, was a woman. Not sure if there were any other options.

- The protagonist has short voice lines. Something along the lines of "I need a keycard to pass through that gate" pops up in my mind.

- You infiltrate a company or lab.

- Typical point and click game where you move around the stage and get items and trigger little events, such as distracting the people around you or knocking things over.

- There is at least one stage showing a big lobby with a receptionist.

- You need to get a keycard to pass a stage.

- There are dimly lit hallways, patrolled by robots.

- If you get detected by a robot, it shoots a dart which sticks in your neck. A very short cutscene as your character grunts, closes her eyes, and collapses.

I've always wanted to find this game, but was never successful. Does anyone remember what this game is!? Gemini is of no help unfortunately.

I don't remember anything about the game aside from the soundtrack sounding very, VERY similar to C418 Mice on Venus from Minecraft.

I vaguely remember the game having a Light/Dark theme with good and evil but even that I'm not 100% sure on.

I played this game I think in 2021 or 2022 not sure. It's a dressup game. I only remember the girl she was wearing a red jumpsuit If I remember correctly. Animated style but the movements were smooth. But not the shining nikki art style. Maybe the name starts with letter G?? I don't know 😭😭😭 there was levels. The girl was in the game icon. It was on playstore. I'm an Android user. My mind says the name was like glam or glow or something. Not the glammd game. I searched it up and that's not the one. Plz help me to find it. I only remember the red jumpsuit. It gaves themes to dressup. She was standing on the side when we dress her up. The game icon was similar to time princess pearl girl game icon if I remember correctly. ( The 1st one I attached ) Maybe the same pose??? Plz help me. The art style is similar to the 2nd picture I attached.

My friend was talking about an eroge he played back in the day that had similar mechanics to battle brothers. Apparently he found it on either otomi of ryuugames, there wasnt a translated version so it was fully jp and he says hes sure there wasnt any lolis there (as far as he had gotten). The game was set in like the samurai era of Japan.

ps he said its not sengoku rance

Does anyone know where these screenshots are from? It was an IOS Minecraft type game. My fiance and I used to play it before we met each other and I wanted to see if its still running.

I'm trying to find a web game where you was a Detective or something like that don't remember if it was from PopCap Games I remember you have to found objects to proceed (like a VN). The think I remember it's a female character called "Dolores" and a "Lighthouse" I think

I remember playing this game when I was about 9 or 10. It was some match3 like game which I played on a flash website I think. If you had 3 grains or cows in a row or something, you would actually gain the resources which you could use to make food for mining or sell for upgrades. I faintly remember “town” being in the name but I’m unsure.

There were also certain things you could buy with resources, for example in the crop gathering match 3 part, a fox, mouse or wolf would sometimes spawn which would be disadvantageous to you in some way, but you could prepare by crafting terrier dogs against the mice or pit bulls against the foxes and wolves. Similar stuff in the mining part where you could craft tnt or something.

from what i remeber, it was like those "dusty road" or "whatever the genre is called" games BUT it was more "horror" oriented. The artstyle was kind of low poly, and overall the game was quite dark as the only light source was your torch (which had a limited fuel amount) and your cart.

would be in a cart with large windows and a backdoor, It was powered by a furnace, and youd drop ANY item into the furnace (except the starting torch) to fuel it.

The cart was restricted to only one direction, and along the road of said direction were houses, windmills and villages, which would give you some items. on the left side of the road were "dungeons". you would explore the dungeons for items, although it was quite difficult as the enemies were quite over powered..

The games avatars made you wear a mask which would drop when you died, and when picked up and brought to the cart by another person, could revive you. you could purchase masks in the lobby, and it was like a lootbox

it was multiplayer and very difficult, i think i never got to beat the game purely because of how difficult it was to deal with enemies.

My memories are very vague because quite frankly I didn't even get to play this game back in the day. I found numerous videos of this game on YT back then, somehow I think it was a VN with anime style visuals.

Overall vibes were grim, dark, bloody and tragic, lots of deaths and wounds, I think different teen-looking characters were fightning something or someone, maybe kaiju or other big creatures, maybe not. It was a pretty long and niche game, I think I've stumbled upon it about 8-10 years ago.

I think spiritually it was close to Fate series if we consider complexity, it was a very long game, probably with numerous routes. I've remembered about it because I've recently watched a Danganronpa "100% playthrough", and idk why but Steins;Gate 0 also comes to mind. And I think the cast was predominantly young, like 12-14 maybe 16 years old looking characters, and they had like death battles or something. I know this is all very vague but if someone gets this game I'd be very grateful, I mean, it would be something like pure magic.

Im trying to remember the name of a turn order anime style war game, set up with multiple units/teams. And everything is on a big map with nodes and lines to other nodes, and you have to defend/capture other nodes

I cant remember the name at all, I think one of the captains/maybe game art had a pink haired woman

I thought "rune" was in the name but cant find anything

The numbers were pretty high, like unit power was 5000-9000, something like that

I think it had a new sequel released recently that wasnt recieved super positively

Ive been trying dig up an old game i remember playing back around elementary school. It was like a guided tour of the solar system planets with information, like an edutainment game. You went to each planet with some kind of....cricket mascot thing. There were things to click on like a Humongous Entertainment game, and theyd show silly things i later understood as references. Each planet had a screen to interact with and aliens and stuff doing stuff. I dont remember how you actually progressed in the game.

I remember at Mercury someone was sunbathing because it was so hot. And there was some sort of track and field thing on Venus was happening but idr why. At one point the guy cricket thing floats across the screen slowly as it played like a midi Blue Danube waltz...years before i heard of 2001 A Space Odyssey.

I remember it being long (for a kid) and never finishing it?

The only thing that makes me think it was real and not some hallucinated memory or dream is it was filled with star trek sound effects, and watching TOS keeps reminding me of this game. Things like the door opening sounds or the flashing lights and things. Star Trek wasnt a thing anyone in my family or close to me watched at the time.

I don't know if this is the same case as that one evil farming game where it's just a story of something that I dreamed and thought was real but I never really had a memory of someone telling or hearing something similar I'm only saying this because I remember the graphics was somewhat good maybe ahead of its time.

If you don't want to read the more specific details here's the key details, logo is like an ice monster

Theres 2 character male and female male has sword or

some mellee and female has bow

It's in an icy/snowy region

RPG/3D exploring game

Heres the game info, it's 3d game rpg/exploring where you can switch to 2 characters with 1 male with a sword or some kind of mellee and the other is a bow (where you can switch anytime, not sure about this part my memory is too blurry to remember this part) the game logo app logo was like a snow monster but like I said Im not sure this was like 6-4 years ago somewhere in 2020, it's like a rpg/world exploration game with some monster or idk I have no particular memory of what kind of enemy the game has but I mostly remember it being in a snowy region

Here a info I'm unsure, I remember getting into a place where there's magma/lava since its like inside the volcano, and also I think its where I unlock the other character with the bow the female character but like I said Im UNSURE about this info

As of writing this I remember an info where I was going to an outpost destroying some sort of wooden gate/barrier but I'm also UNSURE about this info.

And that's pretty much all I can remember please any similar game might help just say it since my memory of this game was sort of blurry
