EDIT: CLOSED. GAME'S NAME IS NIGHTLONG.
I used to play that game a long time ago. It is for Windows and I got it in a CD-ROM full of demos.
You play as a bald man in a cyberpunk world. You started (in the demo) in a parking lot with floating cars. You could make the cars bump by interacting with them. It was a classic point-and-click and you could take a fuse (I'm not sure about this part, but you did had a way to get a fuse) and put it in your inventory when you entered a building with a jammed elevator and looked at it's controls. Inside it looked like it was a nice bulding, fancy, futuristic, but did not had the cyberpunk atmosphere of outside.
I will gift DE:HR The Missing Link.

My game is an onlinegame. It was sort of like a MOBA, but I think you couldn't buy items. I think there were different modes and one was about destroying the enemy minotaur? It's at least 5+ years old. Every hero had a skill where he would go into a berserker-like state and basicially made everyone run from them. There was a lvl-up system too I think.
[EDIT]: It was found by kastresame, the game was Rakion!

Heroes of Newerth or League of Legend. They're both >=5 years so...

Game #1: A 2D side platformer where you kill stuff and collect green vials (it's Facewound).
Game #2: A game where you have to eat EVERYTHING. At the end you eat the turtles (it's Tasty Planet).
No reward (for now).
Edit about game #1: It's a PC game, it's free and it has a word "face" in the name. You play as a small creepy man.

(END: It is Alone in The Dark 1.)
My game was a DOS game, at the start you can choose between a male and a female riporter, to go to a castle. It was a horror game, if i'm correct. There were a few corridors in the castle, and if you go down to the basement there were water, with a water monster, which was killed me all the time. And if you died somehow at the other parts or the castle, there were a thing i cant recall how was it look like, but he was dragging your body through the corridor. I cant remember anything more, because i always died. If anyone able to name the game, and or where can i download it, that would be nice. Thank you.
Reward was the HIB6 key to: Wizorb, BIT.TRIP.RUNNER, Gratuitous Space Battles, and Jamestown games. (sent to Gaycowboy)

OK so, no one will get this. original Nintendo.
Got it from a japanese friend back in elementary school? probably a Superfamicom game actually, all text was japanese.
Side scroller, you were a young girl (or probably boy with girlish hair) something like bighead style. Sort of Harvest Moonish in color and what not, and I think i remember the enemies were akin to SMB, like, little animals and such but tbh dont remember very well. You would collect weapons, many were crazy and didnt seem like real life objects, I remember the best one was something that resembled swinging a guitar-shaped unknown object in an arc, just wrecked everything. You collected... stuff. Idk, my memories of it are very vague, and I probably never knew how to say its name. My brother and I reminisce about that game soemtimes though, it was really cool and somehow mysterious or esoteric or something. Hell, if someone can definitively get it, i'll throw ya a copy of a bundle game probably Ghost Master. thx
Comment has been collapsed.
Unfortunately, the Crystalis series didn't bear many crazy objects coming to life as much as tainted life in general. The weapons of choice were swords if I recall and objects of power like rings. Doesn't sound too similar to the game he was mention; nor did it yield large heads.
Comment has been collapsed.
Sounds like Goemon. He has a series that spans the era of Gameboys to Nintendo 64. In the NES and SNES {or Famicom}; he had a bit of gilrish appearence due to his makeup. It follows the big-headed style, the animal enemies, and the weaponry was pipes, hula-hoops, yoyos, and bombs.
By the way, the one for the Snes was "Goemon's Great Adventure".
Just remembered another game that it could possibly be is one of the Super Adventure Island games for the Snes. Either 1 or 2 as the majority of enemies you faced were animals and the weaponry was quite diverse. Boomerangs made of stone {Yeah, I know, stone?}; swords, clubs, and fireballs.
Comment has been collapsed.
Just remembered a third game that was extremely hard to come by on the Snes, but was far more popular in it's Sega CD format was Popful Mail. It featured a variety of main characters including a large-headed lass that used a sword, a mage, a baby dragon, and the ability to use different weapon styles for each. It was a side scroller with the majority of enemies being animals turned against humanity.
Comment has been collapsed.
I did some research. The final guess is the Violinist of Hameln which was a game based around the basic contour of colors and the majority of monsters were animal-based. You swung your violin, but more often played it to deal low-damage long range. You could also throw the girl... Ah, glorious sidescroller days.
Comment has been collapsed.
wow you know a lot!!!! :D i might have messed you up though by saying superfamicom? was there a just 'famicom'? anyway it was definitely original nintendo, not supernintendo, i never had supernintendo...
....it was none of those though! Violinist Hamelin was closest. Very similar in level layout, it was woodsy at least on the first level, no 2-character dynamic though, and the weapons seemed so random, and there were tons of them.... thank you so much for the tries! now i'll probably get all obsessed trying to find out again xD

I dont know why but the description reminds me of earthbound... Then I went to look at my dust collecting famicom pile and ending up playing megaman for two hours, I found three games that fit the description slightly are Athena due to the female character, unlikely but Bucky o'Hare for the big heads, or valkarie no densetsu for art style...

OK so there's a game that's a sequel to saints row series and idk and you get a giant purple penis by:THQ and Voltion Inc.
Comment has been collapsed.
The game is Saints Row The Third, and the weapon in question is named "The Penetrator"; a large melee weapon with an arcing ability due to it's elastic form that allows for a variety of debilitating and humiliating smacks to the body. You get it from the start and it is considered a rather strong if not overpowered weapon due to it's in-game physics not always acting as intended.

I do believe it is a rendition of the original game created by Alan Alcorn in the early 70s.

Don't really have many details but it's worth a shot.
About 5-10 years ago, I played a game on my uncle's PC where you took control of a party and laid siege to castles and pillaged towns. There were monsters that would occupy areas and just sorta sit there until you killed them or if they found somewhere to pillage themselves. It was turnbased and had a sort of isometric view.
Sorry if I'm being too vague.
EDIT:
I might be remembering it wrong, but it also never left the isometric view.

Perhaps it is Warrior Kings. I guess Laxius Power 3 could even sort of fulfill that criteria if you are getting confused.
Fire Emblem sounds like another candidate. Myth series as well.

16bit Amiga ECS game (500, 600), probably was on other platforms too.
It was a 2d platform game, sci-fi setting, the main character was a man (male), who would occasionally change into a werewolf. I remember the first level being some kind of metal platforms/buildings and the second one was some kind of a forest or jungle.
I remember the intro sequence being something about a crashing spaceship, you started on it and had to jump from it while it was crashing. The game was rather slow paced, not really jumpy. The graphics were quite detailed with large characters.
Sorry, but I can't afford to gift anything atm, but I'll try to remember and gift something when I can.
answer: it was Wolf Child. I was keeping a copy of HL1 to gift somebody over the december holidays, but I'm so happy that I'll gift to CaptainWaddleDee

Ok, this game is at least 23 years old, so I don't remember much of it, but I would like to find it for nostalgia reasons.
It was for C64, or it might have been Amiga, not 100% sure. Your character was walking around in a dark castle, and collecting all kinds of foodstuff. It was all very cartoony. I don't remember if there where enemies, but I believe there where suits of armor walking around. And no, it isn't dark castle.
I know that's very vague information, but just hit me with some titles, so I have some base to start searching from.
Reward: I have some Steam keys from gamescom. Whoever manages to get me on the right track can take their pick from a number of titles.

If it was exactly 23 years ago, then it couldn't be Spanky's Quest? Because collecting food in a large castle setting sounds exactly like that!

EDIT: It's I of the Dragon
It's a game I played like 6-7 years ago. I bought it in the Czech Republic, and brought it home a week later. When you start the game, you become a dragon and you need to complete some different missions like, slaying mobs or acquiring things. The game is seen from above (2D) and looks a little like the Heroes series. Every time I closed the game, my computer bluescreened (if that helps).
I would really love to know the name, because I remember that I loved playing it, and I would love to try it out again! :D

This one is going to be hard.
It is an old MSX game, might be more than 30 years old. The reason why i start learning english as a kid (Yes i am that old) was that game.
You start out in a building complex, and you can visit all these different places. The concept of the game is to earn a bunch of money (quid) buying and reselling all kinds of items from different people. You can visit the bar and meet there with different people that buy different items for example bikes, or hotdogs. And then you can resell those items to different people you meet in other places. The game consists mostly out of communicating with others. Pretty advanced A.I. for the time. I believe it is a British game, considering they make use of the currency:quid.
I have been looking for the last year for this game but i can't seem to find it anywhere.
For the person who can help me find this game i will gift him/her the game SHIP - complete.

I saw my uncle play this game where you are some kind of knight/crusader/templar and you die or something or without dieing you become a vampire and I think you have some kind of a boss that gives you jobs or something...Heres some features I remember: You could pick up rats on the streets or everywhere and eat them to restore blood/health. And there were also monsters to fight and not just other vampires/people.
Also it's probably an open world RPG in 3rd person view and maybe but I'm not sure you can switch to first, and you can have people/companions tag along with you.
Also It's not that bloodlines game.

EDIT: It was Dominions
There was a PC strategy game that I used to play. The main thing I remember about it was there were MANY many races to choose from. The only one I remember was a snake race that had Medusa/Gorgons in it. If I remember correctly you didn't control the battles yourself and would watch your army fight the other army. You could play against computers or hotseat multiplayer. Unsure if there was online or not but most likely not.
There were at least 20 or so playable races in this game.
I have an extra steam key of GT Legends that I'll give as a reward to whoever can help me remember this game.

Those don't have a lot of races to choose from. I was thinking Heroes of Might and Magic... but that doesn't have 20 races to choose from. Do you remember if it was a PC game or console or handheld?

Oh my bad when I searched for Warlords, all I saw at first was little flash games. Still not this game, not sure if older or newer though. Most likely around the same time.
I'm pretty sure the main theme of the game was a bunch of gods/demigods etc. fighting each other. Some kind of made up mythology, it was nothing real. (Not greek/roman mythology).

Okay, here's mine.
It was adventure, made/published propably from Sierra (I think I remember that logo from intro.)
There was some intro sequence where you walked in some pyramid or something like that, and there were king and a queen, but they were lions, after that the game started and you was able to go outside the pyramid into some sort of city, where you was able to sleep in the inn, and go to the market where you can buy items (some red berries, and rope), and then you could go outside of that city, and then the minimap appeared (like in Fallout 1, 2 for example) and you were able to go everywhere, and there was some random encounters, like with some bees and some monsters. And the fight with them was turn based. It was in some demo CD in a magazine long time ago, around 1995-2000. I don't know how it's named, any help?

Ah, what the hell, might as well give this a try.
Old strategy game, possibly for Win95 or Win98. You start out on a map with preset empty spaces where you can place buildings. The building types I remember are 3 types of food production - bread, meat and fish, and towers which spawn officers. The officers are the only ones who can fight, and the towers can defend the area around them. IIRC, there's food consumption and your people may have preferences on what type of food they want. The only map I ever saw being played on featured 3 players, the human in the middle with 2 AI opponents on both sides, that would usually ally. Combat works by officers capturing buildings from the other players.
Edit: I believe there were also non-food production buildings, lumber is the only resource I can sort-of remember. And every building location could only be used for specific building types.
That's all I can remember right now. I never actually played the game, only watched it being played, so I could be wrong on some details. I can gift a small game to anyone who can help me find it.

You are a guy with pistols and need to get in a fortress. The guy did wear a cowboy hat and a long coat. he had a moustache and was old. It's a cowbow game. You can bind people, hunt and all sort of stuff. i played it when i was 10 or so and it was a demo so didn't get so far in it :/ I really loved the game and i'm so sad that i cant remeber the name :C xD or anymore details because it only was a demo.. :(

"Outlaws" by a chance? Don't remember any fortresses though. You play as a retired reverend (or do you?) bent on avenging his wife and daughter murdered by surveyors trying to persuade him to sell ground. Sort of. Guy's certainly in his fifties, not sure of the coat, he wore shirt, vest and a hat. You had revolver upgradeable to two, some lever-action carbine, a single shot, metallic(!) cartridge shotgun and sticks of dynamite at your disposal. Graphics of the quality just like Duke Nukem 3D.

Sorry it didn't help. If it's a more modern game and not Desperados nor Call of Juarez, then I might just have it on the tip of my tongue but alas, can't specify. Will throw in more guesses when I'll have them. Hell. It may of course be random neurons firing...
Anyway, "Outlaws" is an abandonware by now most probably - why not to give it a try and you might even recall something about the game you're on the lookout for. It's a good game for its class, and on the top difficulty it's pretty damn realistic [sic!].

How it works:
If you can't remember the name of a game you played, write a comment with all the info you can remember about it and hope someone else will know it's name.
However, if you know the game that someone described, write a reply with at least the name of the game.
Reward system:
You can thank the replier with a gift; the replier will need to say that a gift was received and what was gifted.
There's no penalty for giving the gift away if the replier wants to. We're using Steam Gifts, after all.
Be failproof:
Please use only Steam to give the gift or the key. If you're using an alternative, be sure it is secure.
No more rules. If there's any need of more, I will edit this post.
Hope you guys enjoy the idea. I will start.
