[PC][Before 2013] Old low-poly FPS similar to Quake, with armed monsters, snowy maps, trains and red maze-like buildings

I was born in 2008 and played this game around 2011–2013, when I was only 3–5 years old. It's one of my earliest gaming memories, and I'd genuinely love to experience it again.

Platform(s): Windows PC. I remember launching it from a desktop shortcut, not a browser.

Genre: First-person shooter, very similar to Quake.

Estimated year of release: Unknown, but definitely no later than 2013. It could easily be a game from the late 1990s or early 2000s.

Graphics/art style: Old, very low-poly 3D graphics. Something along the lines of Quake 1 or Half-Life 1, with blocky environments and simple textures.

Notable characters: I remember fighting enemies that looked like monsters, mutants or strange non-human creatures. I believe they carried guns and shot at me, just like regular FPS bots.

Notable gameplay mechanics: As far as I remember, I could select different maps and fight against computer-controlled enemies. It felt more like an arena shooter than a story-driven campaign, although I might be wrong about that.

Maps I vaguely remember: A snowy/winter map: I distinctly remember snow or an icy environment. A train map: There were regular railway tracks and train cars. I think the train might have been moving, but I'm not certain. It could have been stationary. A multi-story maze-like map: A large, confusing building or structure with multiple floors, corridors and passages. Red environments: I remember a lot of red, particularly on walls, floors or parts of the maps. This is one of the stronger visual memories I have.

Other details: The game was installed on a Windows PC, and I played it when I was extremely young. Unfortunately, I don't remember the title, menu, HUD or exact weapons. I've already spent a lot of time looking through screenshots of games like Quake III, Unreal Tournament, Nexuiz, Alien Arena, Cube, Sauerbraten, X Operations and many other old FPS games. None of them looked familiar, although I can't completely rule anything out because my memories are so old. It could have been a really obscure game, a standalone Quake clone, or even a modded version of another shooter

Death game where everyone is a detective

I don't remember much other than it being an anime style visual novel death game where everyone other than the main character is a super genius detective. Like people die and your character finds out which one of the slowly dwindling cast did it.

I also think the main gameplay is some form of tactical grid based thing to try and find clues? That might be an unrelated game though my memory isn't great.

It's very similar to Danganronpa

"Flower/Bloom" ¿? I can’t remember the name of the game.

Pixel Art 3d game

You move in a 3d space with a character that is 2D pixel, like Mario Paper.

Is a horror game, with exploration, I remember something like "old game never published" or something like that.

Is like Yumme Nikki, you move between a world / school, pink place, I also remember a forest.

Old gamecube or nintendo 64 game?

I'm trying to remember this game I played years ago, like so many years I can only remember that I was near this green grassy land, and I think there were mountains around me with waterfalls and rainbows. I remember there being a cave and something to do with the cave, like there was something floating in it. The water was going around this island thing and I'm like 99% sure I was flying but I think you could drive too. I think it was a mario game or something!

Unknown game i'm searching for. HELP.

There is a game that i use to play as a kid, had to be early to mid 2000's I cannot for the life of me remember what the title of the game is. Hopefully someone can help!

Everything i have looked up points to Carnival Games and I know 100% certain that is not it. Here is what i remember about the game:

  1. It is some-what open world
  2. At a certain point of the game, if not the entire game, the setting is at a carnival. you don't actually play any of the games i dont think, but there is a Merry go round, and a couple of carnival like games.
  3. If I am not mistaken, it is in first person POV
  4. I believe you play an animal of some sort that is tall and lanky, i remember it being yellow.
  5. It is multiplayer
  6. Era of Guitar Hero, and possibly Halo
  7. It was played on either an XBOX 360 or Playstation
  8. I know there is alot of bright colors in the game, specifically the carnival/merry go round area.
  9. It was a cartoon highly animated game
  10. I believe it was designed for kids 10+

My memory of this game is VERY blurry and it is embedded DEEP into my brain. I have been trying to figure this out for the last probably 5 or 6 years. Idk if it helps but I was born in 1998, i would play on my older brother's console. Of course, we had both Playstation(s) and Xbox(s) seeing as i have two older brothers.

IF ANYONE CAN HELP ME FIGURE OUT WHAT GAME THIS IS IT WOULD MAKE ME SO HAPPY.

Help finding a game name

As the title says I’m trying to find a game from the 360 days. As far as I remember it’s a female protagonist, the only mission or thing I really remember doing is sneaking by a dog or junkyard dog in the rain? There also is like an intro section maybe in her bedroom and she has a lot of pillows? I remember that, and then like an office or persons office and it was like glass? I feel crazy cuz I cant find anything like what I’m thinking of

[PC][unknown]fantasy game about timeloops

[SOLVED, game is called "Stuck In Time"] It may have been called "overloop" at one point, but searches just bring up a sci fi by the same name, with weirdly similar events in the game.

Anyway, it was a fantasy game, where the protagonist starts in a tiny field, and by placing down pathing "stamps" you could have him travel and do stuff; every tile moved through, every fight, every conversation gained xp, making it slightly easier to do next time.

You had to spend "mana" to move and do stuff, though, and when you ran out, the loop would reset. I recall that at one point, some guards would teach you how to make a rat pelt cloak, and later, you would need to activate 4 crystals with a drop of blood from specific NPC's, including a necromancer you could go on a date with, and a swordmaster.

It was a very cool game, and I hope it hasn't vanished into the mists of time.

[PC][2006-2010] futuristic vehicular shooter game

Looking for a 3D PC game on CD, around 2006-2010. Before each level you build a car: pick a chassis from several (mostly white, ~muscular-looking) and mount machine guns and rockets. Then you drive it yourself through an enclosed, futuristic corridor with an overhead camera. Robots are stationary, and some hide behind walls. Doors only open once all the robots in the room are destroyed. After finishing a level you get cash/points to upgrade the chassis and weapons, then the next level loads.

[GirlGoGames] [2000s-2010s] Runway Game. Can’t remember the name

This old GirlsGoGames game has been haunting me for these couple of months. It was one of those dress up games, with a few models to choose from, I believe one had a black bob, another was blonde, there might’ve been a redhead, and i’m pretty sure there was a black woman with curls(?) All of the women were tall and skinny of course.

The girls were drawn (kinda) similarly to the photos above. It had that aesthetic.

The whole premise was to dress up for the runway/event, choose what location you want your girl to walk in, and then once you get to the runway, I believe you’d have to walk to either side of the room and pose for the cameras on time. You’d pose and then a photographer (out of the many others in the crowd) would snap a cute photo of the you. I think once a photographer took the photo, a snapshot or polaroid of that photo would pop up on your screen, and then you’d walk around some more and pose before the time ran out.

I can faintly remember the type of place I always chose. It was either a red carpet or this neutral/gold-ish looking place.

This is all I can remember unfortunately. My memory’s become foggy.

Please help! I feel like I’m going crazy and that this game never existed!!

What was a game

I’m looking for a pirate game. I remember sailing a ship between the Canary Islands. I traded goods and fought pirates during my voyages. With the money I earned, I could upgrade my ship, buy a new one or hire a crew. I remember that you could buy three types of ammunition for the cannons. These were usually cannonballs, cannonballs designed to destroy other ships, and cannonballs that killed the crew. It was a simple, straightforward game. Unfortunately, I can’t remember whether it was an Android or a Windows game.

Please help

Flash Game that had an awesome intro movie where it would show units Fighting but then a stronger enemy would come and it continued like that until it got to a unit in outer space almost like an orbital cannon (i think). I specifically remember a ninja running on a roof top or something.
