Ok, ready for next round of name that game?
« on: February 15, 2006, 10:18:18 am »
I haven't seen you guys get stumped yet.  And recently I remember how shocked I was when it took close to a day for one of these to get solved.  But as always, we really appreciate this.

Here's my game in question.  It shou;d be pretty easy.

I think it was a side shooter rather than a vert shooter.  But the key thing I remember was you picked a plane/character when you started.  I think there was an american (probably named Ace, lol) flying a F-14.  Maybe a bug russian flying a bigger plane, and one other.  Each plane had its pros/cons (maybe bar graphs for speed/firepower/armor?)

ok, the clock is ticking.  I'm guessing within the hour this will be solved.

Thanks as always,
Stobe

It is Area 88

Based on the Anime of the same name.


Although I thought the unicorn on the back of the plane was bit much

I have a game I used to play as a child but cant remember the name.

All I remember is that you have to look in castles for a queen or princess or some member of royalty.
You wear a utility man's hat.
eating mushrooms made you stronger, a-la popeye.


anyone know this game?

That's it.  Although I remember it as its other name, U.N. Squardron.

Solved within the hour as predicted.  Thanks!

P.S. Darthbane2k, I remember a game like that called Hard Hat Mack, but I think he smoked the mushrooms, rather than eating them.  (And I don't remember a princess??)
