so then, ive been having a retro session with snes & ps1 games on my psp and its got me thinking about other games and i cant remeber the name of them but remeber some very vague details hopefully you guys can help me narrow it down.

1, i remeber it being an old game so maybe commadore 64 or amiga 500 era but all i remeber is you had to climb up the side of a castle, it was a side scrolling game with jumps and obsticals you have to get past to get up the castle/wall or some objecty style thing

2, same era as 1st game but it was a top down view (original zelda style) and you played as a characteur that had to collect keys to progress things like collecting a key to get in a door to get the blue to to get in the red door to get the green key and so on

3rd and final one for now was i think ps1 era and it was a space civiliation style game i never played it but saw a lot of things about it in mags at the time, not sure if its console or pc based but from what i remeber you had all sorts of races that you had to build up and nurture.

any help is much appriciated - especially the 2nd one but it think that description may cover many games at that time in gaming, although im sure the background/levels were light blue not sure though
 
2. sounds like Atic Atac but that was a ZX Speccy game

3. cou]ld be any number of Ga,es from the aforementioned Master of Orion to Ascendancy . There were quite a few of those types of games at that time
 
yeah 1 is nebulus, i thought you was a ball of some sort didnt want to put it though as it didnt seem right in my head.

3 isnt masters of orion it was a 2d isometric view similar to that of theme hospital and it seemed to be a theme hospital style game (not the hospital bit just the building bit)

Startopia?

Or Stars! (The exclamation point is part of the title). I believe that was the first 4x space sim I played.

Edit: I think I remember the second one too, but no idea what it was. Was it restricted in the steps you could take to complete the level? More puzzle-style than Zelda RPG?
 
yes startopia thats the bugger - sure i remembered an isometric view though :rolleyes:

cheers guys

thinking about the second one im sure the point was to collect chips (computer not fries) and/or had chip in the name?

edit: its chips challenge i remebered it :)
