The purpose of this topic is to find those old games from the past whose title you just can't remember, or even a newer game you can't put your finger on. All questions pertaining to this subject must be asked here.

Thought that this should be made due to the fact as I, and many others, forget games they have played from their childhood, or just generally have bad memory.

How this Topic Works:

You come in and post as many details as possible about the game you're looking for, then wait until someone comes up with the answer. It's as simple as that. If no one has replied to your post, maybe it wasn't specific enough (see below), or maybe people are working on it, but don't have any further questions. Be patient.




How to maximize your chances of finding what you're looking for:

Follow these simple guidelines:

1) As a general rule, be as much specific as you can, every little detail counts and may help us find what you're looking for.

2) Specify the timeframe the game came out, at least the decade (1990s, 2000s...). Can't remember? Try thinking of other games you might remember playing around the same time as the one you are looking for.

3) Specify the system you played the game on (which console, PC, operating system). If you're not sure, telling us which systems you owned in your gaming history narrows the field down considerably. If it was a flash game that you played on some website, don'tsay "PC game", say "flash game" or "browser game".

4) List any distinctive qualities you can remember: what genre of game was it (FPS, RPG, Platformer...)? Was the game 2D or 3D? What did the characters and enemies look like? Was the protagonist a male or a female or multiple characters? Was it first person or third person? If third person, what was the camera angle: behind the character, from the side, top-down, isometric? Was the game really bloody? How many players in multiplayer? Post anything you can remember, even if it sounds insignificant.

Sticking to these ground rules will not only help others find the answer to your request, but ensures that the first answer given is more likely to be what you are looking for.




Keep an eye on the topic

Once you've posted a query, remember to periodically drop by to see if anyone was able to help. In that case be sure to say so, so people know the query has been resolved. Did you remember some new details? Add them via a new post, don't just edit your old one if it's older than a few days, or no one will see the edit!




Be patient

Just because you don't receive an answer right away it doesn't mean we aren't working on it. Sometimes it takes time for someone to recognize the game you're describing, so check back whenever you see the thread has new replies, they may contain the answer to your request.

So far we have an score of about 400 resolved queries, and counting, so keep asking here whenever you can't remember the title of a game and we'll do our best to find it for you.




If your game is found, say it!

If the game you are looking for has been identified, don't forget to post a comment to let everyone know, that way, people will know to stop looking, and your confirmation message may help other users looking for the same game in the future!




Would like to show your gratitude?

Has someone made your day by finding your long lost game? Want to show them how happy you are? If you have some Steam, Origin keys you got from a bundle or even just some rep , why not send one or two of them via private message to the user who helped you? They sure won't complain!

I'd just like to share a game I recently spent some time looking into to find.


Cell Damage I played on the OG Xbox, was a cartoonist game, where you drove cars that killed the other cars through various means.
Was a really fun game, rumors of number 2 being made but nothing really went any where from what I've read.

I even have one myself.

- I played this game maybe 5-7 years ago.
- You have your own club island and can build.
- You can build things such as snack bars, jet skis rentals and hotels.
- I thought it was called something like club life, but can't find it anywhere!
