Looking for an old game.

LoveleLovele Member UncommonPosts: 55

Ok this is an old game I am looking for. I think it came with windows 98, I mean it was there when you installed the windows. I installed the windows long time ago with my first comp and I had 2 games. 1 with racing(formula) with old-type formula cars and rpg kid of game. The second one I am looking for. You could choose between 5 classes among them you had archer, a fat lady with a big axe, a slim lady with some kind of claws like an assasin and 2 more. 4-5 classes I don't know for sure. And on the first map there were a lot of minions to kill, leopards and stuff like that. I am wondering if any1 knows the game I am talking about.

    Now I feel cheated... My Windows 98 only came with Solitaire, Spider Solitaire, Minesweeper, Hearts and Freecell. LOL

    Any1 got any ideas of the game's name? I remember that when you started the game a screen appeared of 4-5 classes to choose from. It was like a big picture and after you clicked on 1 the game started on a dark map where you had to kill some minions. I remember the archer(male) the big lady with a big axe and the lady with the claws(kind of an assasin) and I think there was 1 more dude with a sword.

    This was not a game that would have came preinstalled with Windows 98 - it would have been something added by the manufacturer. What brand was the computer?

    I don't know the brand of the computer it was an old computer. And we bought it installed with windows 98 and there were 2 games there already. Maybe it wasn't a microsoft game. It was a formula racing game with thoose old kind of formula cars and this rpg game I am looking for. It was around 1998-2000. The game was 2.5/3D I am sure of that, the graphics were like diablo 2's maybe even better.

    Grand Prix Legends is a cult classic in the driving simulator gendre. The other game almost sounds like one of the many incarnations of Gauntlet.

    It's not gauntlet. The game I am talking about had no mage class. Only close-range combat classes except the archer (4-5 classes). Also I think it had no menu at all. As the game loaded the char selection screen appeared. It was a picture with the 4 characters and you had to click on 1. When you moved your cursos on one it had highlinded.

    A lot of companies like HP bundles their PCs with games. If you can narrow down the aproximate year of purchase you are one step further in finding it

    Hexplore, maybe? That's my best guess after a bit of googling.

    My PC was a compaq presario I think compaq presario 5000.  I've been searching for days now with no succes :(  Maybe it wasn't even a "so old" game thought because the graphics weren't so bad they were maybe better a bit that diablo II's. And when you were hitting the monsters there was a sound like when you hit a box bag. It was pretty awesome. And when the monsters hit you it was like an "ah" sound.

    The first monsters looked like this one

    http://www.elfwood.com/~trimm/Grey-monster.3300492.html         just the head was different, no dragon head lol. And at the right you had some leopard monsters that were guarding an entrace to some labyrinth and there was an npc with like 2 mini-bosses that were orange and kinda looked like some golems.

    It was no arcade game. Any1 knows some good rpg sites/list I know a good 1 but with no pictures only names. I googled all names from 1996 to 2000 from that list but couldn't find much info. Ty in advance you're helping me a lot.
