I played this one game when I was younger but can't recall the name at all. It was a old computer game (in windows xp,maybe?) that is a board game. You get to play as an ice cube, and throughout the game you can change to liquid or gas depending on what panel you land on.

Anyone knows? Or you got old games that you can't recall as well? :/
 
Wow man that sounds familiar but I'm really bad with names.. Let's see if anyone here's a pro at MS-DOS games though..

I had this old game for MS-DOS on a disk.. It had a water thematic to it, like you had to play some maths mini-game with seahorses and there were some fishing with penguins, and whenever you cleared a level you got to this wooden bulletin where there would jump a shrimp across the screen..

I've been trying browsing the archive.org since they not too long ago released like every single ms-dos for free use but I kinda gave up since there were like 56963 different games.
 
lol i just searched "computer Board game where you play as an ice cube" on google to try and find it no dice
 
There's this one game I remember playing when I was really young, like 9/10 years ago on a windows computer, that was set in a haunted mansion or something. One of the large rooms had a fireplace and bookshelves in and then the rest was mostly hallways like a maze, and things jumped out at you. I think the aim was to find notes or keys or something and kill anything that came at you.

Sadly since I was young, I can't really remember any more of the details, and no one seems to know what it is...

As for your ice cube one, that actually sounds I think I might have seen someone play that before or something. I can't remember much of the top of my head but if anything comes to mind I'll let you know
 
@creeper sounds way too familiar o.o but yeah i hate that i was just a kid when i played that dos game.. i think my cousins had the disk but they can't play it or idek if they still have it so ah
 
Oh man, I used to play this one game on my GBC 24/7 before I got my DS with WW and I barely remember anything.
It was definitely a jump'n'run, maybe it was bw? I think the main character was a chicken? Or something non-human at least.
My memory is so vague, I was like 8 when I played it. But I do remember that while playing it I would constantly chew a certain type of bubblegum.
 
There's this horror game in Dreamcast where you traverse through an empty mansion? building? and one of the corridors is made of meat... I was too scared to see more cause horror games used to freak me out (it still does a little) The cover is filled with monsters made of meat/blood with a lone girl who's the protagonist. I'm not sure if I want to look up what the title of the game is

sounds like toki tori or something. gosh they released so many gb/c games back in teh days
 
I remember an old old DOS-like or Windows 95 game I played back in the day about moving....something through a labyrinth, with traps and keys all over the place. Each move you made had to be carefully considers.

...I wish I remembered more details...
 
aww snap almost a week and still I can't find nor remember the name :/

quick everyone, to the mind palace!
 
I remember a JRPG from the PS2.
My friend loaned it to me when he wanted to borrow one of my Gamecube games. So I only got to play it for a few days or so, and it was interesting but I cannot remember what it was called for the life of me.

Problem is, it was so JRPG that it's hard to distinguish from all the other JRPGs.

The cover art for the case he had it in didn't seem to match, but even if it did I don't remember the title on it. It had black air ships, and that's all I really remember.
It was turn-based combat.
You played as a dude in a mining town or something, and ofc your BFF from your childhood tags along.
I swear, the tutorial fight at the beginning took place at the edge of town in a quarry. You had to save the town's miners from the bad guys. Obviously two teenagers - you and your lady friend - are more capable of taking out the enemies than the miners with pickaxes.
Then we were at a floating rock in the sky, I wanna say it was a dragon shrine.


Unlikely male protag from a tiny, poverty-stricken village and his best friend team up to save the world. Also dragons. Air ships. Turn-based combat.

...It doesn't really stand out from every other JRPG.

Maybe the story was unique when you got further into it. But probably not.

I know you said you're not sure you'd want to know.. but it's a horror title, and on the Dreamcast no less, so I gotta ask, lol.

Was it Illbleed?
Not an empty mansion, though there are parts that resemble that. It's about a horror theme-park. Three of your friends went in and never came out, so lone high school girl ventures in to save the day.

its this really old game from either the 90s or early 00s. when you open it, it pops up as a row of about ten games. i remember one of them involved playing a flute with snakes, the other one you're trying to get mouses to move around, and yeah
