I need help finding a game

Hi, I hope someone can help me finding a game I used to play a long time ago and I just can't find it, I don't remember the name, the only thing I can remember is that it was like a defense game on a beach, you had to shoot the soldiers that were coming from the water. I remember the soldiers were kinda like the ones from tiny troopers.

My dad is the one who installed that game, I already asked him and he can't remember the name, but I showed him the soldiers from tiny troopers and told me I'm right, they were like those. I feel like I'm going crazy because I've been trying to find it for years and I just can't. Please please I know my description of the game is horrible but that's all I can remember. It was a PC game.

Sorry if my english is bad, not my first language.

The photo is just a reference so you know what I remember they looked like.

Help me find Online game from the 2000's

I'm looking into my mind and I remember an old online game I used to play in the 2000's.

The game was played out in the Primitive Era, you had bows, clubs and maybe some magic.

There was 2 different sides of the game. Either you played as a solider on the ground with many different classes or you could be the commander like in an RTS. (but you cant control the soldiers because they are actually real players)

The soldiers on the ground was fighting against the other team and as a commander you were building up the base and upgrading your soldiers gear (real players) on the ground.

The game was really fun is basically all I remembered, I think it was free too.

Think like how they used to fight really primitively with clubs, bows, magic. With a touch of RTS.

Looking for old DOS kingdom game

As title states, I've given up many years ago but still think about it once in a while, it came on I wanna say like 5x 3.5 floppy disks and was a kingdom management game where your goal was to expand and control much like civ. You had knights and various people you could send on time based missions with no direct control, but had direct control of like a war map. I know its little to go on but any suggestions?

Edit* thank you for the guesses but given my description and the masses of similar games ill resign to the loss of time.

Finding old pokemon mugen game!

The game is VERY old, i remember playing it around 10 to 15 years ago, i downloaded it from a website that had "pokemon games" in it, and im pretty sure it was *not* a flash game.

The game had a Story mode that followed the first pokemon season.
It started with you running from spearows with your pikachu, then proceeded to go to the misty gym where you fought a staryu and a starmie back to back, then i remember it also had a brock gym, and a cubone fight at a IV school or something? after that, i only remember a aerodactyl boss fight. ALSO IT HAD MEDABOTS as playable characters on the free fight mode.

Im really looking to find it, my search for it on old forums did not give me any clue to the name of the game or anything else, im worried it might be lost media...

Need help finding my first ever played game - very few clues

SOLVED: it was Monkey Hero! Thank you all.

Hello all! When I was little my father and uncle had a PS1 and I remember playing all kind of games like Spyro. I have been able to remember ALL games I played except one. I will give you all I remember about it. Sadly, I am not in contact with that side of the family anymore so I cannot ask them directly.

First of all, I believed it was some kind of Ice Age game, but when I searched for them they do not look like my game at all. I tried searching in this page (https://findthagame.vercel.app/) but I am also at a loss. I will give you the details now:

-I was born in the year 2000. Therefore, I must have played the game from between 2000-2010 maybe. Since I was an infant, I am inclined to say 2004-2008.

-It has to be before 2010-2012 because I stopped visiting my father around that year, but I do not really remember exactly when.

-I played the game on the PS1 and I am almost positive, because I remember it being grey and opening like a cassette. I distinctly remember playing Spyro the most and it must have been PS1 Spyro, because I remember finding eggs around and the low poly graphics (I checked on Google).

-I remember the game being kind of like a bird view. Not like spyro, where the camera is a third person, I remember looking at the character from above but not like Hotline Miami, I saw the character perfectly. Similar to games like Don't Starve or Teenage Exocolonist, that kind of view.

-The graphics where (I think) pixels. Like Stardew Valley with more texture. Possibly simply low graphics though.

-I remember a character I thought was Buck from Ice Age (hence why I thought Ice Age was the game I was looking for) but it wasn't. I remember it being reddish and walking in two legs. Possibly an animal but now I am doubtful.

-Gameplay wise, I hardly remember anything. I remember that the character walked around a green background. Like grass. I remember (possibly) talking with other characters in the green background.

-For some reason, I distinctly remember that the background was very green with darker and lighter tones of green details.

And that's all I have to offer. I'm sorry, I was very very young and it is possible I am forgetting or modifying some details. Any help is appreciated, thank you!

EDIT: It is highly possible I am not remembering the graphics correctly. All ps1 do not look as pixelated as I remember them to be.

Looking for help figuring out what game I used to play as a kid! Little to not much clues provided.

I'm 33 and have been asking every gamer I know of since forever what this game is. At the time I couldn't have been much older than 5 or 6. The game/part I'm thinking of was the Rugrats. I don't remember if they were the full game itself but there was a mini game or bonus game in it that was similar to Bejeweled. When you moved the pieces different Rugrats would say different things and I specifically have had Phil saying "alright, who's playing with the rubbery cement" as an eyeworm ever since then. He said this when you tried to move a piece that was stuck. I believe I used to play this on PC. And unfortunately that's all I got. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Need help finding these game characters

I feel like im crazy because not even my older sister knows what im talking about and I swear she has played this game with me before.

These characters are characters in an educational kids game I played around 2010 when i was like 3 or 4. I swear it was on the VTech V-Smile console but I could be wrong.

They were a brother and sister kid duo, some sort of white animals not humans. The sister had a white bow on her head. It was a very simple art style. Thats literally all I remember. I dont remember anything about the game except for them. If someone could tell me who these characters are and what game they are from I will love you forever.

Tia!

Help- game lost to time!

Okay, so basically when I was a kid around 2000 - 2012ish there was this game on my dad's old kindle fire, That I used to play all the time, and I got nostalgic thinking about it. And now I cannot find it.

Basically, from what I remember, it's a hidden object game about being this young woman that finds herself on an island and it's sinking. She has amnesia and gets flashes, sometimes of this family, And a little girl. while on the island she starts hearing a little girl's voice talk to her, telling her to go around and find these purple orbs. And once you find enough orbs, you'll go down under the island and there's a lot of machines. I also remember that you were collecting pieces of a picture of this little girl. And if i'm correct, it was like in different areas, you would find another piece, and then you'd go back to this frame you found and put it in until you had the whole picture of the little girl.

I don't remember much else from this game other than there was a sequel to it, But I never really played that one. For some reason, my brain is associating it with big fish games,.But i'm not sure if that's the maker or not. It has literally been every crazy that I cannot find this game, Anywhere on the internet. even if I can't play it anymore, I'd still like to know what it was called that way. I could look it up.

Help me find game I played as a kid

This is gonna be tricky, I just remembered playing a game as a kid, I have no clue what was it about but I think it was like rpg adventure or something like that but I know for sure there was an npc that had no tongue, think it was troll or mutant maybe and that it had purple skin but I may be wrong about that. It just popped in my mind and Im trying to remember what game it was so if anyone has a clue please tell me.

Played it on pc
I’m from ‘99 so lets say I played it ‘06/‘07 so something between those years
And I remember looking straight at that tongueless character, there was some type of ‘conversation’ and the npc was mumbling

Solved, it was Lost Eden

[PC][1995-1999]Need to find the mid to late 90's battleship game

I got it from either the Chip or Digit magazine CD we used to get in India. I don't remember if it was full version or demo. All i remember was following:

  1. I only used to play classic mode against Computer.
  2. I remember night sky with full moon reflecting on the water.
  3. I think i had to select which ship to choose when firing. not sure though.
  4. When opponent used to fire, i could see the missile coming in from the horizon.
  5. We couldn't see opponent ships, the grid was on the side panel.
  6. Ships were modern.
  7. Graphics we decent for the time, but there was not jet planes, close-up shots of ships or cut scenes FLVs from what I remember.
  8. No pirates, no dialogues, just simple gameplay.
  9. Not DOS based. It was 3D for sure though, but not isometric and fixed camera.

Game I have already checked:

  1. Battleship: The Classic Naval Warfare Game
  2. Battleship: Surface Thunder
  3. Battleship (1996 video game)

Please help me find the game. I've been legit looking for it for almost 28-30 years now! I was too young to remember most of the details, but I described all that I remember.

P.S: Before you ask, I lost the CD in 90's. So no digital or physical copy remaining.

2D DOS-era platformer — brown monkey with yellow crown, shoots yellow rings from a gun, jungle setting

Hey everyone, I've been trying to find this game I played in 2007 on someone's laptop and I can't figure out what it was. Here's everything I remember:

Genre: 2D side-scrolling platformer (run, jump and shoot)

Platform: PC (looked like a DOS or very old Windows game — pixelated graphics)

Main character: A small brown monkey wearing a yellow crown-like hat

Weapon: The monkey holds a gun with a round/circular barrel that fires yellow ring-shaped projectiles

Setting: Jungle / forest

Enemies: Animals (I think)

Players: Single player

Title screen: Letters were yellow (I don't remember the actual name)

NOT: Toki, Xi You Ji, or any Donkey Kong game — already checked these

It was likely from the early-to-mid 1990s based on the graphics. Any help is hugely appreciated!

Roman educational game

In 1998/99 in the UK we were learning about the Romans in school, and there was a game we could play in the library to help learn. Every so often I try to search for it, but to no avail!

It was based in a Roman town, and at the beginning you picked a profession like Doctor, Scholar or merchant etc.

Then you had to explore the town, collecting artefacts that related to that profession, such as a statue of the God, tools, and qualifications.

It was a little like Castle Explorer, but for Romans. Can anyone else remember, or did I dream it?!
