it is a game that is in a cave with 2 people on a gondola that is on the tracks going fast.

Vampire Resurrection and the opening cutscene of Vampire The Last Sanctuary?

I don't think so. not the one i was thinking of.

I can't think of any game like this - sorry.

It could be Faust, the twins episode
(I hope!)

what is that ??

He is referring to the game called Faust: The Seven Games of the Soul. It is an older game; it was released in 2000.

thanks , I think it was something - about the mummy ??? I remember some thing about a guy in a chopper and he would take you to different places . does that ring a bell ?

Can it be Omega Stone?

Chief

Can you recall if the game was in First or third person?

I think Chief is right about it being The Omega Stone. And deleterman played that game in the last couple of years - I remember him posting about it in the Hints forum. There's also a helicopter taking you places in the game.

It's a first person game.

I had to do a search to be sure as I did not remember.

Chief

Could it be Kentucky Route Zero?

thanks guys , I checked it out and there is no rail tracks , as I remember you have to switch the track for the gondola to go to the right or left. I think it was left. if it was the not the right way it crashed in to a wall. and the people in the gondola died . yikes what a game.

A mad guess could be "Lighthouse : The Dark being" ??

well I just remember that it has mountains all around and as you look down you see the opening to the mine. you climb down and go over to the opening of the mine. does that ring a bell ?

If you look at the beginning of Chapter Six of the Lighthouse walkthrough by Louis, it shows an entrance at the base of a mountain and inside that mountain you have to drive a cart that runs on rail tracks.

His site is HERE

Scroll down the game titles on the left and look for the Lighthouse walkthrough that's ready translated into English.
Then once in that, scroll down to the end of the prologue and click on Chapter 6 part 1 to look at the picture there.
That picture could well be the one you are remembering ....

Great thread. This is like the Gameboomers Detective Network here.

that's the one..thanks a million .

where can I get this game ????

GOG has it here.

Glad I was able to ferret out the game for you, Deleterman

Nice work, Mad!

Thanks, Marian

I should also thank Louis & Lion for the splendid Lighthouse "walkthrough" pictures - that enabled me to check if what I thought was there was actually there !!

Lighthouse! Good detective work, and thanks for the reminder of that classic!

The rail tracks are what first made me think of Lighthouse .. And then I realised the flying machine could be the "helicopter" and the monster in the abandoned building could be the "mummy".
So then I went to the walkthrough Louis had made to see if I could find a picture of the volcano entrance - which could be the "cave" entrance - and fortunately found one

Lighthouse was a masterpiece of an Adventure game I always thought !!
[ Although I get stuck on those railroad tracks every time I play it and always have to look for walkthrough directions to make it through ]

thanks guys for the help. I went and got the game great fun, good game but as I went on and played it I thought no this is not the game I was thinking of. YIKES . I know this was on my old computer win 7 I think. is there a way for me to check to find it ?

If you still have Omega Stone on your computer, I would check to see if that is the game you are thinking of; you could also look at video walkthroughs on YouTube.

Have you looked at Riddle of the Sphinx: An Egyptian Adventure ?

I still think Draclvr had it right but it is Dracula (not Vampire).

Yes, check out Dracula: Resurrection.

In addition to those and checking out The Riddle of the Sphinx (which has a Helicopter), there is also The Cameron Files: Pharaoh's Curse . There is one more that I remember...well not remember as I can't recall the name but I am working on it.

Got it...Mummy: Tomb of the Pharaoh

Of course all these are based on if the game you are thinking of is first person.

thanks but i know it is not the omega stone. YIKES !

How disappointing when I thought I'd resolved all the clues you gave

Well I gave it my best shot and have no idea what else it could be ....

But good luck on your further search

Have you checked to see if it is Dracula: Resurrection?

I quit, not that I don't like helping out but for the lack of feedback from the OP.

thanks guys . looks like I will have to go through all of my old walkthroughs , I have a ton of them, that is the only way I can be sure....I went to youtube and checked out mummy : tome of the pharaoh. that sure looks like the one...we will see if I have it on my computer.

it sure looks like mummy : tomb of the pharaoh ,I checked it out on youtube . I don't have it on my computer -where can I get it ? now I have win 10 ....

You won't be able to run it on Windows 10 right out of the box.

There is a seller, however, who sells older games tweaked to run on newer systems and this is one of the games that he sells. You can find his sales page for the game here. Several people who wanted to play older adventure games on newer systems have ordered from him and they all thought he provided excellent service.

great , i didn't know that , thanks for posting that, now on with my broken sword game..I did check out every thing about Mummy- tome of the Pharoh . the walkthrou gh . you tube and that is not the one...

thanks,I did check out Dracula : Resurrection . and I think that is the one. now how do I get it on my computer ? I have window 10 . is there a place that I can go to get this game down loaded on to my computer ?

It is available as a download from GOG; however, the download page does not say that it supports Windows 10, so I would be reluctant to recommend it until we can get confirmation from somewhere/someone that it does indeed work on that operating system.

cool . I have down loaded game from them before. but like you said I will wait and see what people say. I have the time to wait. again thank you so much. I went there but could not find it.???

GOG is selling three Dracula games including Dracula Resurrection for $1.99 here. The page does not list Windows 10 as being supported. Looking around online, I see some people running the game on Windows 10, but it involved some tweaking and messing around with it.

The seller that I linked to earlier also sells the game, already tweaked to run on Windows 10: Dracula: The Resurrection. If you couldn't get it working and he couldn't resolve the problem, he would give you a refund.

great , how do you down load it to my computer ? the price is good. I don't want disc. any thoughts on how to do this so i get it on my computer ? I am talking about that last one .

I believe he sends CDs to people but that sometimes he also offers downloads as well. I would write to him and ask him here.

I just got hold of him, he said that after I buy the game he can down load it to my computer. got my hands full now . I will do this later. again thanks for your help on this..

You're welcome. If you have any trouble with it, let him know and he will help you out.

I just found my old walkthrough , just a few pages , so I printed out one that was revised 2008 by MaGtRo. much better . 20 pages and easy to read. BTW what is that OP next to my name ? just a thought.

OP means original poster; in other words, the person who started this thread.

thanks , all my questions answered , again thanks for all your help.

You're welcome.

has any one down loaded a game to there computer from this guy ? or do you know any one that has ? I have not tried as of yet. any thoughts on this ?

Several people on GameBoomers have downloaded a game from this seller and had no problems with it.

This was solid detective work. Maybe I should make a game about the hunt for this particular game. Any suggestions for a title?

great. don't know. can't wait to get that game- dracula : resurrection. but gota finish Broken Sword : The Smoking Mirror..first...only about half way done..

"Clues, clues, everywhere and nary a game to fit."

[Semi-stolen from "The Rime of the Ancient Mariner (text of 1834) by Samuel Taylor Coleridge".]

that Allvideo Classic Games site is interesting, he advertises a compatability package wonder what that is.... anyway was fun to browse thru the titles, like a trip down memory lane.

I thought at first OP was looking for the Tomb Raider game with a mine with cars you ride in it but she was always just alone. great game tho for an adventure game.

well I tried to go and down load dracula resurrection , from all vidio classic games and what a mess that was ..will not try that again. I will check on GOG games . any one down loaded Dracula : Resurrection on there windows 10 and played it on there computer ?? please let me know ok. thanks for all your help.

Can we discuss running games in Glitches forum please and thank you.
