I did not speak french when I was six. I do now, but apparently that doesn’t automatically translate memories from thirty years ago. It took me about 5 years of actively looking for this to find it. I found it by asking in a big forum (not reddit but that sort of thing) for something like “people driving cars deforesting space with lasers”.

Playroom by Brøderbund

Still unfound, some game with a joust and a dungeon to explore, on Mac in the early 90s
Edit: king Arthur’s magic castle

For books, a medieval themed book like where’s Waldo? But I don’t think it was a where’s Waldo book. I forget what you were looking for.., a spy?

Played that shit all the time in the computer lab with my friends.

Worse when it’s a flash game, as I understand they’re all dead now.

I just want to play the unknown snowboarding game with all the little hills to jump on again. Well that and the ever classic Kitten Cannon.

popcar2,

Gonna try this but one of the games I really liked was actually delisted from popular flash sites back in the day and I forgot the name because it was a fictional fantasy single word title.

Lost it long before flash died, and I can only assume it was because the creator had requested a takedown which is really weird.

IAmNorRealTakeYourMeds,

this, there was a flash game where you are an evil genius. you have a base which you can later upgrade to a volcano or a moon base. you send agents to kidnap politicians or other villanous schemes. there were segments where your base was attacked and you had to use your resources to defend it.

overall an amazing game. never found it again :(

I did this just yesterday, trying to find an ASCII Dracula game. Played it on a friend’s PC-like in the late 80s. I remember you controlled all the characters but could lose Mina and others during the game depending on your choices.

Remember going to the asylum to chat to Renfield to find clues to where Dracula was hiding

Airborne! And Airborne 2.

It was a tower defense game before the term existed. Way back on a Macintosh back and white machine. You sat in the lower corner with a mortar and machine gun against people, tanks, helicopters, and jets trying to charge/shoot your position.

Oh! And The Dark Castle. There was a big the prevented you from finishing the game. Man I wish I could play it to completion.

Another awesome one is the tank game where you spawned on hills, then insulted each other before flinging various crazy weapon shots around (nikes, mirvs, napalm, dirt). Such fun.

I can’t remember the name now, but I recently found a game In have been looking the name of for years. It’s something like Pharo’s. Curse or something along those lines, but I’d have to check Flashpoint Archive for the name because they have the online demo.

The concept was just that each level had a different board layout and you had to move 3 pieces of some sort of symbol or artifact or whatever to be adjacent ( possibly in a certain order horizontally ) but balls spawn if you move witjo clearing them by matching 3 or using a powerup. You could move them to any empty space so long as the path was clear.

Can’t find a copy of the actual game itself from a reputable website right now, but I know it exists.

AIV Network$ (A4 Networks) - I searched for years, the name didn’t make it easy to find.

There was a fantasy point and click adventure on the school PCs about two lost goblin or gnome children. I think it was some sort of learning game released during the 90s. The only things that I clearly remember is a mini game about getting red and yellow llamas across a bridge with a passing point, and a labyrinth where you had to solve riddles. Never figured out what it was.

For me it was Starush on Amiga. Still a great soundtrack.

There’s this game on the original macintosh that’s been my white whale for decades. A samurai/ninja game with a heroes of might and magic style overworld map and and a fighting game style screen with a dense bamboo forest in the background. I’ve gone through a bunch of archives and I just can’t seem to find it

shatterling,

Oh man, you’re talking about Sword of the Samurai one of my all time faves!
