A 3D action game about sword fight.I've forgot it's name.
The game is mainly about sword duel,camera view is 3rd person tracking kinda like mount&blade.
It has game mode like duel/FFA/TDM.
Characters can fly,and seems always flying.
Main feature of this game is you attack and defend with 360-degree mouse moment.
I remember the default guy is a man in black coat,matrix style,with a sword.

Determinance?

Hi guys,
 
I’m trying to track down the name/brand of some novels I read when I was young. Not computer game, novels.
 
They are in the ‘Choose your own adventure” style, but closer to Fighting Fantasy or Lone Wolf play books.
 
From memory of the one I read years ago, there were two classes you could choose from, one might have been warlock or sorcerer and the other I believe was Mystic. It dictated what spells and actions you could take. There was a certain amount of moon worship involved in one class or the other. Any assistance greatly appreciated.

*Probably not an answer*

I played a one-off Lone Wolf style gamebook where you had to choose between a wizard and a warrior at the start, and I think you'd help and be helped by the other character over the course of the book.
Again, probably not what you're looking for, and I don't remember the name.  But just in case it triggers your memory.

This one definitely had mystic as a class. Might have had a purple robed character in front cover.



While we're talking about it, anyone remember a mechwarrior style choose your own adventure where you drive a mech?

Would you happen to have a ballpark for what year you first ran into them? That might help a titch.

Early to mid 90s. The mech one had maybe a yellow or golden colored mech in the cover. You could stock it with armaments you marked on a page inside the cover. You could exit the mech at certain points in the book and return to it.


I remember reading the mystic/sorcerer one at a friend's party...maybe it was a wedding. I remember because it was a full moon and according to the books that was important to one of the character classes.

These?

I seem to remember playing with an x-wing vs tie fighter pair of books that were similar, and in black&white with saddle stitch (staple) binding. There might have been a Robotech one also?  Hard to say, since the most iconic 3025 era battlemechs were cribbed from macross and a couple other anime sources -- and my memory isnt that great.

Whomever made the Star Wars one, it was different from the above.  Check out their complete listing here:

They have someting called "Lost Worlds" that might be the fantasy one you remember.

I don't think they were strictly robo or mechwarrior pedigree. It was more for kids, more novel than game but it tracked a simple consumable.

Does anyone know the name of a bullet hell type game where you control a fighter plane and fight against a bunch of aliens and stuff?  Really Metal Slug-esque graphics ( probably made in the same era ) and apart from that I can't remember too many specifics.

Unfortunately, that can really describe pretty much anything, in the scrolling shmup genre. But if you take "fighter plane" literally, it could be Jets'N'Guns.

Yeah, is it a modern day plane against aliens?
Because there are tons of top-scrolling shooter games where you shoot aliens, probably the most famous being Tyrian 2000.  It's a fighter-shaped spaceship, and the graphics kinda remind me of Metal Slug.

So, I'm going to give you the barest of bones to work magic with.

Late 90s - early 00s isometric RPG. Played like Arcanum: Of Steamworks and Magick Obscura. In fact, I'm 99% positive that Sierra made the game. The setting was post-apocalyptic/future-tech steampunk, and the protagonist was a girl with blue hair.

What the hell am I looking for? I cannot find this game!
