One level of Tomb Raider 3 starts on a beach and proceeds to caves. Also Crysis (at least kind of).

I remember a 3D game, forgot if PS1 or PS2, I just remember that there was a beach and there was a cave.. It might be possible it's Jak and Daxter but I'm not sure :/ Any ideas?
Ratchet and Clank? Robot on Wheels (not PS)? What genre are we looking for? What activities were there?
All syllogisms have three parts, therefore this is not a syllogism.

One game I'm trying to find is on the Genesis. Its like Mega Man buts its not. Each level you complete gives you a new character with different abilties and attributes generally they get stronger but sometimes the earlier ones are more suited to certain levels. The levels are relativley short and linear and have a big boss at the end of each one.
I know this was 7 years ago, but I eventually found this game a couple of months back. It was a game called Valis SD, and it was most definitely an obscure game.

There's this old (circa mid-noughties) PC game my friends and I used to play all the time on the school computers. At the start of the game, you are presented with a bunch of suspects' mugshots and their desriptions. In order to find the clues, you have to travel on the London Underground (with tubemaps and lines and stations and all that), before travelling by road, with a Google StreetView-esque screen. You also have to explore the countryside using Ordnance Survey maps (though I'm not sure where in the order of events that goes). Once you've found all the clues, you have to decide which of the suspects is the culprit, and if you're correct, you go to their house and arrest them, or something like that. As far as I'm aware, the game was only released in the UK, so good luck.

I remember seeing a side-view 2D game for the Amiga where you controlled a bouncing ball. The only thing you could control was which direction the ball would rotate and how fast, and the ball would then bounce from the scenery. I do not remember what the goal was. Surely this same idea has been used in countless games on many platforms, but it would be nice to see the original Amiga one.
Aw, damn. I have also played this game briefly, but the reason it stuck in my head was that a friend of mine made a clone of it for PC in Pascal back in 1996. Sadly I cannot remember the name either. If it means a lot to you I could try to get hold of this friend (via facebook or something) and ask him?
Four years later, I think I have the answer for you! I met the friend I talked about and he remembered exactly which game I was talking about. The game is almost certainly Wizball! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wizball

I'm looking for an arcade game from a top down view where you play the role of a giant monster and can shoot lasers and stuff while destroying the city and opposition. It's also an autoscroller. It's not Rampage btw. Edit:Found it.. It was called King of the Monsters. http://www.hardcoregaming101.net/kingofthemonsters/kingofthemonsters.htm

There was an NES game I played once which was a ridiculously long maze, you started with 75 lives, and the game came with a full map and the exact path you had to take to win, but, of course, I can't remember its name.
I am still the wizard that did it. "On my business card, I am a corporate president. In my mind, I am a game developer. But in my heart, I am a gamer." -- Satoru Iwata <scrimpy> at least I now know where every map, energy and save room in this game is

Here's an old shareware PC game (speaking Win95,98) I played back when I was a kid. I think it was among a bunch of other shareware games, but I don't know if the game appeared outside of Germany/Europe. There are boards and you are the ball. The objective is to clear all the white tiles on the board by passing over them, and then step on the green(?) goal tile (The start tile is purple(?)). The white tiles disappear shortly after being stepped on. Blue tiles are solid ground. There are also teleporters, blue tiles that disappear and reappear, enemies(?), tiles that shoot a projectile over and over... The background graphic is like the cosmos. The game had 10 levels or so - but I'm pretty sure it was only a shareware version. I think the game's name is "Tyler" or something, but I can't find screenshots for the game searching that name in google...
I finally found this game again in google images. I believe I have spent about 8 hours (accumulated over last few years) looking for it. https://archive.org/details/Tyler_1020 Game: Tyler Dev: Ugly Dog Software Published: 1995 (Windows) People: Phillip Tanner
"To finish a level, guide Tyler from the green tile to the red tile. In the process, you must destroy all of the gray tiles by touching them. When Tyler touches a gray tile, it begins to fade out. Don't linger too long! Other tiles blink in and out of existence, teleport Tyler to another tile, or otherwise make your journey more interesting and difficult. When you are on the red tile and have destroyed every gray tile on the level, hit the spacebar to advance. Remember, there is no time limit in Tyler. Take a few moments at the beginning of each level to familiarize yourself with the layout and plan your route."
Now it's time to TAS it ;) if or as soon as Hourglass can run it.

I remember this game for an old....windows? that revolves around a pickup truck delivery that had point and click gameplay. I think. I tried searching up truck games, but it kept giving me racing games for the result.

Looking for what I'm pretty sure is a Casper game, but I can't seem to find it anywhere. It was loosely based on the movie, and takes place in a haunted house (obviously). I'm 99% sure it had detailed pixel art for the various rooms- I remember an entrance hall with stairs and a kitchen. Casper's uncles made appearances at some points. I know it wasn't the Interplay game- it doesn't look like what I remember...

I'm looking for a windows game from 1998ish. You played as some kind of military recruit mole on 2d maps (imagine the maps to be structured like in Snake). The objective was to kill all enemies on the map, I believe. Game had 10 levels or so. Don't know if shareware. If you gameovered, you'd get jailed or something*. If you won, you became general*, I think. * Those are video cutscenes. Edit: If I didn't know better, I think this game was called Trigger but I can't find it on google images right now. Edit2: Ok, found the game's name, it's Twigger. You can find it in google images if you search "Twigger mole game" or similar. ------ Also there have been a few Arkanoid clones that I would like to see again, all of which are from around 1998ish. But I think maybe I will describe them another time. It's not like I can remember much about them anymore anyway.

I looking for a "incredible machine"-like. I have only a few memories. It had a cat, a mouse, boxing glove on scissor-mechanism and a spear on scissor-mechanism (actually, a triangle) I think it was a dos game. "Incredible machine" games does not have "spear on scissor-mechanism". (And incredible machine toon does not look right) Any idea ?

The one title I can think of is Return of the Incredible Machine: Contraptions. It may or may not be what you're looking for, though. It, at the very least, has a cat and a mouse. Here's some video footage. (it's a Windows game from 2000, though)

The Incredible Machine 2 for Windows 95? That one has a pool cue item, which might be what you're thinking of?

As far as I remember, it was early 90's..., so I guess it is not compatible with win95. Arg. Is there any early clone of TIM ?

Can't remember the name of this one old PC game that I played in 2007, it was some sort of water slide game where one of the playable characters was a robot. And the timer showed how many frames (i.e. 1:1.59).
I like Doraemon

There was a n64 fighting game I used to play that felt kinda like a 3d MK but with mythological creatures. Anyone know?

It's a year late, but after lots of searching, I believe I found something. Sorta: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6lNlkMXaISo https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross_Country_USA
