Hey guys, i'm new here and i found this site while searching for some old games i've been looking for... and i was hoping you guys could help me with this
and sorry for long post in advance
Since i was just a kid, i can't remember every feature of the games i'm looking for but i have hints... all of them for PC, anyways.
Sorry if the info i provide is in some ways blurry or misleading, that's because i didn't know how to english back then...
1.-
The first game i really want to find/know about was like a strategy game, i can't remember if it was per turn based or not...
The maps were kinda on abandoned cities, because it was like an invasion of some sort.
There were... at least 2 races/teams i can remember, but only because of colors.
Blue and
Red... and i remember seeing some
Yellow. Anyways, most of the time i was playing
Blue, and was fighting
Red.
The unit i recall is an APC kind of unit, fast mobility, really fragile... there were some strong vehicle type units, too. There were some helicopters/hover crafts... damn this was so much time ago.
The map was like some kind of grid, and on some areas on the minimap there was a huge sigma symbol Σ (white, i remember this because i didnt know what it meant, not even on spanish).
The bases.....
blue and
red base looked like floating buildings, this, of course, alien type. the game was like futuristic. If you have ever played World of Warcraft you could tell the bases looked like
Naxxramas / Necropolis.
I remember you could like... use the units and bring them to combat.... which i can't remember at all. You could jump from unit to unit, a lot like Armored Fist tank swap mechanic. I can't remember winning the map/match/game either lolol
2.-
The second game i'd like to find isn't as important as the first one, because this one i played a demo only. So the information isn't as specific as the first one...
It was based on a planet, i can't remember if it was planet earth or not.
Anyways, you had to fly a vehicle that had 2 modes, ground mode and air mode.... and maybe water mode.
There were villagers on some parts, some kind of scientists on another parts.
These last were like developing some kind of proyect (white modern buildings), which you could shoot and blow up. If you did this... the water level on the planet would reduce, all the villagers/scientists would disappear/die and the atmosphere would turn a different color, which i can't remember (green, red, orange).
You had a bar that was like fuel or hit points... lol that's all i recall. i always used air mode to reach other zones as quickly as possible.
3.-
The third game i'm looking for is a space adventure game.
I only played this a few times because later a friend lent me Starcraft and i forgot about the space adventure game.
You had to first pick a symbol for your spaceship and then it was like free mode, so you could go to other planets and trade. I remember there was a cargo, yes. I remember i was bullied too lmao... probably because i pissed someone off. AH and the most important thing i remember is that you couldn't just go to the next quadrant (yes it was developed in a grid) because there were these big ass lasers that could blow up your ship (i assume the boundaries until you unlocked the next quadrant).
Sorry for long post again... but i really want to relive my childhood with these games and beat them. it's personal. the same happened with time commando, lode runner and knights and merchants
