Flimbo's Quest.

I got it on a cartridge with three other games with my C64 and it's always been one of the games that shaped my gaming tastes. Even today the parallax graphics are fairly impressive for an 8-bit machine.

(That 6-minute video, by the way, is a full playthrough, including the ending - ahhhh, the 80s)

There was an old adventure game for C64 (also available on Amiga/Atari ST/Spectrum/Amstrad) called Cosmic Relief (Terramex in most countries). I loved that game. It was one of those games where you switched between characters and used their different abilities with assorted objects to complete the game. It was very quirky and had great music (courtesy of Ben Daglish, who others might know better as the guy that wrote the music for The Last Ninja on the C64 among others).

To be honest I feel this way regarding Simon The Sorcerer and the sequel. I played that game soo much as a kid and yet throughout my lifetime I only know 2 people who have played them and that's my brother and sister.

This RTS with dnosaurs I guess isn't very famous: http://www.mobygames.com/game/jurassic-war

SPAAAAAAAAAAAACEEEE DUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUDE !!!

Lol, yeah, I know what you mean. The only real gripe I have with Shivers and Shivers 2 is the acting... especially Darkcloud in Shivers 2, who SHOULD be scary, but ends up being hilarious. But, I do love the silliness of the acting in these games... I guess it's just nostalgic for me.

Wow I don't think I've heard of any of the games mentioned so far, which was what I was hoping!

I am wondering if these games will end up being completely lost (if they haven't been already). It seems GOG already has to go to some effort just to find the originals of some popular classics, let alone lesser known games.

I can think of a few old games that are barely remembered, if at all:

HeliCOPS by 7th Level (Shogo meets Comanche, basically)
G-NOME by 7th Level (A decent Mechwarrior 3 clone)
Rebel Runner (A really old sidescroller that even I barely remember)
Onesimus (A bible-themed reskin of Jill of the Jungle)
Hellbender by Microsoft (A sequel to an earlier game called Fury3, sort of like Descent meets Wing Commander)
Hover by Microsoft (Capture the flag with a bunch of hovering bumper cars, with DOOM-style environments)
Odell Down Under by MECC (Become a fish in the Great Barrier Reef and try to survive)
MAG Racer (A bunch of tiny aliens race around household objects. You could run over the crowd and splatter them.)
Hardball III (Really good old baseball game)
Space Jam (Ok, by no means was this GOOD, but it was kind of funny playing it.)
The Lost World: Jurassic Park: Chaos Island (RTS with a system where you had to hire mercenaries first, then capture dino eggs if you wanted attack units.)
Small Soldiers: Squad Commander (Simple but very good RTS)
X-Wing vs TIE Fighter (ok, so this IS remembered, but it was GOOD)
Star Trek Voyager: Elite Force (Great game that had a pretty mediocre sequel)
Heavy Gear (Another good Mechwarrior clone)

I think Hellbender is possibly my first ever pc game! And I have vague recollections of having fun with Small Soldiers. I think it had some pretty snazzy mechanics at the time?
My one would be Team Buddies, a 3d worms like game that is better than it's source material (sacrilege!). The bomb ball mini game alone would be worth a re-release!

Dune2000

We need that on GOG, pronto.

I knew these ones, though only played the demos at most.

For Hellbender btw, the better comparison would be Terminal Velocity. Fury3 actually used the TV engine. I don't know if Hellbender's engine was a modified version of that or something new - it was actually Direct3D-accelerated so looked much better.

what this old gem, few know of it, few know of anyone who knows of it, few care about it because it got horrible reviews: Elder Scrolls part 5: Skyrim.

Some adventure games like Cruise for a Corpse, Bud Tucker in Double Trouble, Ringworld series, Touché: The Adventures of the Fifth Musketeer.
FPS: Strife and Chasm: The Rift.
